Taurus gal just dumped me... and it was going so well. I'm stunned. Did I push her too far too fast— If I did I expected her to say something... not just... say nothing... why didn't she speak up sooner if I was pushing too fast? I tried to get her to talk... she was just so quiet all the time, I took that for agreement. Here's what she just wrote me:


>Hello, this week is flying by...
Guess I'm not ready for a relationship right now in my life. I've been giving it some heavy serious thought & I need my alone time to get my life together. There's too much going on and since I'm newly divorced, I need some time to get my mind straight. I hope maybe this summer we could ride together, maybe even camping with the horses one weekend.
So I'm changing my status on FB & please don't take this offensive, it's me, not you. You are everything I'm wanting in a man, but not right now in my life, thank you very much.
take care-

—?

I'm stunned and speechless. I though this was it... I though she was the one after five years without a real GF. Wow... I can't believe this is happening. Life sure throws you some curves.

ignore that message and never and i mean NEVER contact her again. This was the basic she didnt like you, shes the one missing out so f it Now keep it moving and find yourself a sexier better smarter woman than her, and id bet you my 2 college degrees that she would come back crawling but pay her no mind. I always thought taurus girls arent as good or have as quick minds as virgoes (thats what i look for in a girl), so let her go Mayeb a a sexy libra girl will pass by and yake u by surprise.stay up

hi fergy

sorry to read you were dumped. At least she let you know. Most guys in today's dating world, dont even LET the woman know they are dumping her. They just suddenly stop talking which I find worse than an email. At least you know where you stand and can move on. Dont blame yourself for anything. People who are recently out of a relationship are very difficult to please. They are still in a comparing stage: the old one vs. the new one. Any habit you entail that the old one has, may become a warning sign for that person.

Drop her from Facebook, don't give her a chance to dump you twice, sorry to hear about your break-up, they suck no matter whose at fault, I agree that she seems a bit of a jerk by not giving you the courtesy of telling you face to face, pretty immature to break up via email. Also it seems she's sending out mixed messages, she wants to maybe ride with you this summer and ride with horses. So now your a back-up just in case whomever she's now dating won't work out?

Thanks for the replies my friends. I appreciate you all. I'm still hurting... but will give you some more details later... perhaps tonight. Well... I'll lay a few on you now.

She broke up with me in an email because that was our preferred communication method. She doesn't have a home phone. Only a cell, which she shares with her son. When he goes to work in the evenings, he takes it. When she goes to work in the mornings, she takes it. She tried buying him a prepaid phone, but no matter how many minutes she bought.. he squanders them all in a day or two. He went thru 600 minutes in a week. (I have a pre-paid too and don't use 200 minutes a month) The cell has a bum battery and doesn't hold a charge for long, and they can't afford to get a better phone at this time... so.... email is the way we communicated usually... we only called each other if the need was really great and then kept it short.

When we first met, she asked if I had a FB profile, I said yes so she became one of my FB friends. A week or so ago, as it'd been almost three months since we'd met, I decided to change my FB profile to reflect that I was no longer looking for a relationship. I found the setting there allowed you to select "in a relationship" so I chose that. Then FB said "with who?" and noticed you could choose one of your friends... so I choose her. It then said something along the lines of "we have to let her know and she has to give permission before we can allow you to list her as being in a relationship with you". And she DID accept that. So my profile then stated that I was in a relationship with her. Friends and family commented on my new status. HER friends and family commented on her new status. Some of her friends called her a COUGAR as she is 8 years older than me... but they said it "tongue in cheek". Her reply to her friends was "He's VERY nice and VERY tall".

So when she dumped me, she changed her FB status to "Single" again, but did not erase me as a FB friend.

Ya, I saved her the trouble... I erased her from my friends list on FB.

More later.
