If You Don't Like Me, Please Dump Me

Instead of a disappearing act, guys should break up with a girl if they're not interested.

To illustrate my point, I will dive into my own slut files and show you how, even in the most fleeting moments, this consideration counts. At two separate birthday parties I met some of my pals' sexy dude friends. Man #1 and I kissed all night long until the end of the party. He asked for my number, had our mutual friend text me to call him because he lost it, and then texted me saying it was nice to meet me almost a week after the fact and he would be in touch to make plans. Yet still, after all that, he never asked to see me again. Why did he go through that ridiculous amount of trouble and drag our mutual friend into this if he had no intention of seeing me again? I had nearly forgotten all about him when he texted me back in, strung me along, and then pulled the fade out. I feel like twice as rejected now.

Sorry, gotta say it...

Guys aren't the only ones who have trouble just cutting the line. Guys disappear, and, on the ladies side, gals try to make more trouble to get the guy to dump her instead of just doing it (been through that a couple times...whew....lotta fun that was).

People just need to Man/Woman up, say what needs to be said, accept the now ex-whatever's tirade as the question, beg, splutter, and blubber why, and then everyone can happily move on (in 3 weeks to a year's time depending on length of relationship, number of friends who give good advice and support, and if you've already been meeting with a therapist regularly).

The idea that men should just come clean is great in theory. But, to be honest, a lot of people can't take that. I can kinda see why people would want to just sneak away.

It's pretty hard when someone plays games like this. Honesty should always be expected, and mightymouse, you should ask him what's up with him and if he's serious or not and then hold him to whatever he says.
