What's the weirdest reason someone broke up with you?

Because his mum was unimpressed with my lack of sewing skills. 💁🏽

A string of disappointments

Damn. Same here. I wanted to wait.

Were you waiting for a particular reason?

I thought we should take our time, no rush. Get to know each other better. She wanted it NOW. I took to long so she dumped me.

It was ok though, cuz I thought any girl that put out that fast is a slut. I didnt want a slut girlfriend.

While I disagree with your opinion on girls being sluts for wanting to have sex early in a relationship, if that's not what you want then it probably was for the best that it ended.

Not sure if the reason is weird, but it's because I played too much FIFA.

If it was so much that she felt you were neglecting her, I could understand that. But at least FIFA will never leave.

She said I wasn't tall enough and she wanted to raise basketball players. I am exactly average and she was 5'9.

What a totally unrealistic thing. Seriously there are thousands of tall athletes out there that are still playing pickup at the YMCA. Only the cream of the crop play in the NBA and even if you are a top draft pick (unlikely) they still have a huge chance to bust. lol you dodged a rocket.

Yeah, my last girlfriend was broke, so I dumped her because I wanted to raise millionaires. It just wasn't meant to be.

This is actually recent.

I had been seeing someone for about four months. I always felt like she was keeping me at arms length, never really opening up to me, which came to a head recently. Effective communication is a huge deal, and she was a challenge every day.

I was told that she felt it would be "too much information", but I had done or said something extremely early on that she couldn't get past. However she never once brought up anything, nor did I notice anything I could have said/done that would have been catastrophic (even something seemingly small). I know it's not her way to bullshit, so it's not her just trying to get out of something.

The point is, a relationship failed because I couldn't get her to effectively communicate with me, to which the reason I was given was evasive, which was par for the course. I'd have been more upset about it, but when I heard that, I just laughed to myself. She was very sweet, but in a way, I'm glad. It's just too much work when the other person involved is so closed up. Oh well, can't win 'em all.

I've been there, nothing is more annoying than opening yourself up and getting nothing in return. You can only try for so long before you realize that it's usually not worth the effort in a one sided relationship.

I helped her accept that she was gay. I mean, she was much happier dating women after she dated me, but it seemed rather out of the blue.

Apparently it's unbecoming for a woman not to be able to see clothes. I was in dental school at the time. Go figure
