Dumped via text message

by Sally Ann Lasson

question

Dear Sally Ann,
I recently met a guy who seemed really keen on me. We dated a couple of times and got on well. Then, with no warning, I was dumped via a test message. He said he couldn't see me any more as he has 'baggage'. This sort of thing doesn't normally bother me but this time it's different - I really liked him. A close male friend of mine has asked me to think about him and me getting together. I'm really confused. What should I do?

answer

Dear Paula,
What a charmer your text message boyfriend is. I think you're well shot of him, don't you? At least he dumped you sooner rather than later, but that doesn't mean that it isn't a bitter blow. We rarely meet people we click with so it's always upsetting when things suddenly go wrong. If he re-materialises in the future, which is quite likely, please don't go there. You already know he's a duplicitous coward and there's probably more of the same where that came from. As to this male friend who has put his hat into the ring, well, you're not really interested, are you? You're only confused because you're dealing with one rejection and one acceptance. Don't mix them up. Keep him as a friend. You need your friends at a time like this.
