Been dumped today...need some cheering up...
I will await the STW massive response...
It will get better, I promise
Wanna cyber? 8)
More time for riding!
Plenty more fish, erm
Bad analogy. There's no fish either......
I always think it's for the best when this happens- remain positive and you'll get an even better girlfriend next time
She wasn't right for you anyway.
chin up and all that, stay out of the ale house and get some more riding in.
Sorry to hear
least the ex won't be nagging about "how much for a bike?" and "you're not keeping that in here"
Why did you get dumped? Did it involve her twin sister?
Obviously also post 'those pics' up and we'll give you a more informed and considered view

If that doesn't cheer you up, you may be beyond help.
It will get better; stay true to yourself and avoid doing anything silly/bitter
Think yourself lucky, when i got dumped by 'the one' The streets 'dry your eyes mate' was playing on every radio station, tv channel and in every shop
😡
The Southern Yeti - Memberthis helped me, I'm sure it'll help you!

Not just me that had this problem then!
I'd just finished uni at the time, and got a temp job driving delivery vans, and every radio station in the known universe seemed to be playing it at least once an hour! Que fits of tears from me every time it played...
Anyway... Getting dumped gets easier every time it happens... Shit, probably not what you wanted to hear either! Bitter? Twisted? Moi? 😉
Seriously though... No matter what you might have thought of the other person, if they didn't want to be with you in the same way, you'd only be prolonging the inevitable by remaining in a relationship with them. Sad but true to be fair... You're better off out as you can now get yourself out there and find someone else!
Erm, perhaps best not to link to that sort of thing, sam....
hink yourself lucky, when i got dumped by 'the one' The streets 'dry your eyes mate' was playing on every radio station, tv channel and in every shop
oh there we go again, dragging up our dirty laundry in front of EVERYONE! 👿
hmmm?
She wasn't right for you anyway.
She wasn't right for me either... 😉
But seriously, there's many many good things about being single! You can oggle without fear of reprisals for a start 😀
All the best, you'll see it through just fine!

What me?? Pish off! I'd happily wear the beard / glasses combination, but ride a single speed, no, No, NO!
TBC YOU BROKE MY HEART
*Runs off bawling*
That's not all i broke heh 8)
Houns, dry your eyes mate, I have a feeling all may not be lost with TBC, ain't that right sir?
*Winces*
I'll never be able to listen to a banjo being played ever again
Lot's more thumb sucking in the shower for you then houns. Hard times.
i ditched my no-good missus in december and ive not looked back, ive so much free time to do what i want when I want, joined a ballroom dancing class, joined the gym and can play my guitar or ride my bikes or go partying till 4am as i please, it also means ive got a load more ladies to date rather than looking at the same miserable face every day! make the most it aint all bad out there..............
Did TBC break your banjo Houns? Ouch, bet that was bloody messy.
He did, only cuz he was so toit
What can i say? I like to work out on all my muscles. 1001, 1002, 1003...;
Find and kill her....
Only kidding, such is life sometimes dude, never nice but better things await you, stay out of trouble and get amongst it. 😉
We still love you Houns... :dw:
So, what was the dump-line?
PS: you do wash, and all that kind of stuff don't you?
So, what was the dump-line?
I'm guessing, seeing as she's a woman and he's a man, it was...
"It's not you, it's me"
😉
Yeah, I would guess that. for a man it's usually "I'm not ready for commitment"
Tell me you didn't get here name tattooed on your arse....
(otherwise it cuts down your possible catchment pool for the future!)

"It's not you, it's me"
Spot on!!
MaverickBoy - MemberSo, what was the dump-line?
I'm guessing, seeing as she's a woman and he's a man, it was...
"It's not you, it's me"
Nah, it was, in fact.....
It's not you, it's FatSimon.
(sorry!)
Oh to be 20 something again!
It will scar you for life.
It did me.
Oooops.
Just read the end bit "..cheer me up!"
Insert a 😉 into the above reply
😉
God I'm glad I broke up with one gf as she was a nutter.
Sometimes it wasn't meant to be.
Spend time with yourself and friends and a new start.
If you ever want a new GF just make sure you have the same values.
Life can be hectic-makes the lonelyness seem trivel and you have 'Me' time to reflect the pros and cons.
Life is too short-go have some fun!
Treat yourself:
New bike, big telly, console, - you know the sort of thing. Spend twice what you would have spent on her over a year. You know it makes sense.
Don't forget to:
A) Remove her number from your 'phone immediately - grovelling / swearing rarely works, and a restraining order is soooo 2009.
B) Destroy "those" photos before you get drunk and show them to your mates/post them on the net.
Get yourself booked onto the prospective STW 'Singles' ride, cos looking at a bunch of hairy, middle aged, overweight IT spods should convince you that you have far more of a chance of pulling than they have(and I'm sure you'll meet some really nice women as well).
[i]a bunch of hairy, middle aged, overweight IT spods[/i]
Oi, do you mind!?
I'm not hairy.
Yeah, I would guess that. for a man it's usually "I'm not ready for commitment"
Probably yeah.
Both literally mean "look, you were alright for a shag, but I wouldn't want to have to pass up a better opportunity because I was with you now would I!"... Again, cynical, moi?
The one and only time I ever dumped a girl though, I actually used the truth! Which made her feel awful for about 3 months it would seem... Oops! Still, we're good mates now, and besides, she now bats for us so I feel less guilty for having dumped her in the first place...
Still, I believe in karma and all that. Better to be open and honest withe people, one day it will be rewarded.
It is really hard though, to find kind words to say something which is obviously going to hurt the other person. To make things worse, when I get nervous I giggle, which is not the right thing to do at all...
I've never used the 'its not you its me' line
But have had the 'not ready to commit' one thrown at me.
Bottom line - Being single is fun!
Give yourself time to discover who you really are and what you really want from life/love. DON'T settle for second best. Be true to you!
Good luck x
