"I'm sorry but I didn't mean to fall in love with someone else..."
Of all the break up lines that I have ever encountered, this has got to be the one which really strikes a nerve. What I have issues with is not the validity of the argument but rather the usage of it. I mean, here you are, thinking that everything is alright when suddenly, you are told that he or she didn't mean to fall in love with someone else...What the hell kind of an excuse is that? Fortunately enough, I have never encountered this excuse in any of my relationships (or lack thereof). But if I were given this alibi, damn, I would lay the smackdown!
All kidding aside, the issue I have with this line is the "I didn't mean..." part. I might be sounding like a hypocrite when I say this but for all the girls out there who intend to use this, guys would appreciate it if you use another excuse; somewhere along the lines of "it just didn't work out between us" or "it wasn't really meant to be". The "I didn't mean..." brings in the third party angle and more often than not, guys given this excuse react in the extremes--of extreme depression or of feral rage.
Yes, this post is really biased as it is solely written from a guys perspective. Hey, like I said, I might be sounding like a hypocrite but its just something I'd like to get off my chest...As most guys would like to do, I am sure.
Take your mark!
