It's that fucking simple.

And at the end of a heated text message conversation, suddenly I got a simple explanation of what happened:

"I don't want to be taken care of!"

Great. I got dumped for being too fucking nice. For caring.

Fuck
This
Shit

That sounds familiar.

When I last got dumped I searched high and low for an explanation for what happened. I wanted that one thing that I could do differently next time or, perhaps not even that, just somehow be able to put it all to rest by knowing what happened. The thing is, again probably just in my case, it wasn't one thing it was a combination of little things over time. It wasn't one thing.
Every opertunity I got I pressed for an explanation and I drove myself crazy over any communication I got, and by then turning over every past
word and situation I could remember.

I'm sorry you have to go through all this and I'm afraid I don't have much for you right now apart from these two things. Go out with friends, just be with people. The other Alixandrea, of all people, told me in the KSR one day. She was really insistant about this, she just told me rather emphatically, "It does get better". And it did.

Hang on in there.

Apparently in this case it actually was just this one thing. It's hugely important to her and she hated the way I was too protective/caring/whatever.

It seems a terrible shame to end a whole relationship over it, instead of talking about it - but to quote her last message, "it's done".

What a life.

Fuck it, indeed - at least that's a laudable character trait, and one that many girlies would kill to have in their men. It hurts, but to my mind it's better than being dumped for being a bastard and not knowing it.
