Splitting Up with Misses

sara said:
Eeeeek, just stop texting and set aside half an hour to ring her, NOW! Surely you can make up the time later? You can't let it all flow out in drips and drabs over text...

I can't get off site at the moment and I can't cut her off halfways through on the phone for work purposes. FFS, this is getting well complicated.
 
"sorry it took a while to reply, been texting the missus and it's going to be harder then I thought. don't worry though, you're still the one for me. xxx"
 
Just text her explaining you're too busy to talk right now, and you will talk to her later, but imo dont put "chick" or "babe" or anything like that..

Great - this is going fantastically well, 3 missed calls.
:/ What did you expect?

Switch your phone off (can always say you were in a meeting or in with a client) and call her when you get back from work.

And apologise for being a tit and ruining her afternoon!
 
I do empathise though, these things tend to escalate.

You can get a lot more into 10 minutes of talk than you can into an hour of texting, even if you have to cut her off, I'm sure you can manage ending it on some kind of round-off for the time being - it'll be a wrench but worth doing, then finish the call later.
 
Listen to Sara. She's a girl.














As in its nice to hear the other sides perspective as you can't take all the guys here seriously

Been together around a year, were both 22. We first started goin out when we were 16 but split up and didnt see each other for 3 years while I went to Uni.

My typical week starts on Sunday evening, I have a 3 hour drive into London, check into the hotel and then work long hours Monday to Friday, due to traffic I get home about 10 on friday nights. I then get no time to do the things I need to do, no beer, I always have to drive, no smoking, I can't listen to the music I like and her idea of a good weekend is shopping and spending time in bed.
I've got no objections to spending time in bed but after being away all week with very little time thats not been spent facing a customer or sat in front of a PC. I don't get the opportunity I need to unwind - on my own, or at least with someone who has similar interests.

She's also very insecure, doesn't like being left alone and generally seems to cry if I'm late home from work/whenever I leave for work on Sundays.

Finacially I can't conform to her plans of buying a house and still buy the car I want. Which I know seems totally rediculess, but I worked really hard for my job and cosistantly put in a lot of effort. Only to see the cash I earn to do the things I want to do (holidays/festivals/cars) disapear before my eyes.

Make sense or am I a selfish ****?

Nah mate. It needs to end

Is this the first ever live dumping by internet committee?

Last time you ever ask for advice here I bet.

Did someone actually suggest he text her?

She jsut txted him and we told him how to reply, which lead to an afternoon of entertainment :D

j/k but you wanted it over and now it will be.

Oh dear, I feel sorry for both of you. Her for being the imminent receiver of bad news, you for the awkward situation you are now in via text messages :p
 
Shes mad.


I now have a missed call from my therapist though, and I don't believe such a freakish thing could happen without outside intervention. Something is amiss.
