walking with girlfriend and group of friends
Girlfriend: "We need to talk."
At that point anyone who was near-by walked away very quickly. People who have a shred of dignity give people privacy in moments like that. She continued.
“I don’t think I’m ready [very good alteration of the “It’s not you, it’s me” paradigm] for a long term relationship with you. [very clean.] I think you can find someone more suitable for you [veering into a clinical tone now] who’s less mean than I am.”


Weird. My reply:
"Could you tell me again without the clichés?"

Didn't go down too well. She was a purple belt as well. Luckily I escaped alive.
