Weege - I have sung Carmina Burana [first bass = baritone] a bunch of times with the Bach-Elgar Choir in Hamilton, Ontario. Our best performance - by far! - was at Artpark in Lewiston, New York. Full-on orchestra with the Buffalo Symphony. We got a standing ovation - I sh#t you knott - of like twenty minutes! Longest damn ovation I've ever received in a lifetime of performances - very memorable.
awesome piton peat,
much respect.

A friend of mine was working overseas when he got an email from his wife that was four words long:
I want a divorce.

This is a depressing thread if you feel, a funny thread if you think.
Zip, just send her a picture of you masturbating over her picture and thank her for the breakup "sext".

Come on, youz dadz. . . now tell us just how ghetto you've been when the tables were turned!
I was thinking the same.
I've never been dumped, though have had more non-starts than I want to think of. And when I needed to stop seeing any guys, I always did my best to be kind and direct. It sucks badly enough to be rejected, even if you weren't really happy, Why make it worse?
...they feel they have outgrown us.
*cringe*.. What the f*#k does that mean? Complete and utter bullsh#t. Arrogant is putting it nicely. Good riddance to as#@&%es...
I had some "friends" pull that same BS on me as well (also by e-mail). It's almost worse than getting dumped by a romantic partner in some cases. Probably could support it's own thread BTW.
Going through the early 20's when friends started first getting married, and then again when babies started coming, and not being included in social gatherings because I was a unit of one sucked. I didn't understand why there had to be "pairs" and "sets" to have balance...
I did have someone tell me last year that "no man who owns a home would be interested in dating you." When I dumb-foundedly asked why, they said "Well, you have nothing. What do you bring to the table? The only guy who will be interested is a dirtbag who lives on the road like you do."
They said men would look at me as if I were out to take advantage of them and live off them.
That was about the most horrible thing I ever had someone say to me.

Great stories!
Keep them coming.
I will reply more in depth when I get a chance.
Just wanted to post up a quick update.
I gotta a text from her this morning requesting I delete all the personal sexual stuff.
We did quite a bit of sexting and she sent me a lot of pics and videos she now wants me to delete.
I responded that I would honor her request if she could just remind me who she was. I sent her 1/2 dozen pics of other women, and asked her to tell me which one she was.
She hasn't responded.

Happiegirl, I agree with Ekat...
Guys like that have serious doubts about their own significance and importance...and attempt to project it onto others with hurtful insults. Avoid them and show no vulnerable path to your inner soul.
You're an appreciated, highly cherished individual...and by all worthy accounts, a soul with immense spiritual and moral quality. You can't put a market value on that kind of human merit.
There's nothing low-station about living on the road in pursuit of your dreams...high living is about personal growth and the quest for meaningful experience...not a seven figure bank account.

Avoid them and show no vulnerable path to your inner soul. That's kind of the heart of the matter here, no?
Sometimes we can learn and grow the most from these most painful of observations, or we can choose to block them out and move on to another page of the same old story.
By far the most painful things ever said to me have been on the way out the door of a relationship. I can still hear many of the words and some of them have taken many decades to understand and accept.

Might not be the nicest thing to say to someone (I hear worse daily), but they are right.

While working in oil-exploration I seen my share of dickheads who would say anything to get laid. (not me of course as I'm a cool guy) One night in the bar this guy named Richie was laying it on thick to this cute gal promising her the world. The next day we were packing up and moving to the next crappy town when this poor girl shows up with her kid in tow and a suitcase of her belongings, Richie...Richie... you said you loved me..Richie...Richie...you said I could have my own horse...And as we were driving off she was sobbing in the parking lot...Richie...you said I could have my own horse...I felt horrible for her. BUT...we were howling...I guess that does make me a dickhead...

May 20th, 2011, the day before "The End of The World" ...
My wife of 19 years and the mother of our 2 kids says "I'm leaving and divorcing you."
My 2 kids were at the new Jack Sparrow, Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, premiere. She had arranged a sleep over at a friends house for our 2 kids for after the movie.
I was hoping to go out with her that night. It had been a longtime since we both had time alone together without the kids. I asked her earlier in the day from work on the phone, and she said "We'll talk."
It was the loneliest night of my entire life. No wife. No kids. Buckets of tears. The prediction for the end of the world was one day off. It came early.
The prior month she had been secretly using the same remodeling workmen that were working on our house to ready another home in the same city a few miles away. They knew before I did. Maybe I should of asked the workmen how my marriage was doing? It didn't occur to me to ask them. Well, hindsight as they say is 20/20. I should have asked them. Lol.
Well, ladies, if your name is "Lilith" or "Cruella," that is how you do it. Textbook separation and eventual divorce.
All about Lilith:

http://www.myjewishlearning.com/beliefs/Issues/Magic_and_the_Supernatural/Practices_and_Beliefs/Supernatural_Beings/Lilith.shtml
Edit:
Is there a consolation prize or something for the one who wins this contest? Lol.
Further edit:
I suppose I should expound a bit. People change. We were equally yoked when we first married. We had overall a very happy marriage with 2 beautiful children. She was a beautiful woman who loved the outdoors, she worked hard, and as well she was a modern feminist. I was a climber who loved the outdoors. I was a classic textbook example of the "The Prodigal Son." I buried my faith and walked away from G-d many years ago after I went into the Army and then into college. I was lonely and I wanted a wife, feminist or not. But a few years ago I came back to HaShem. I wanted to be the husband I knew I could be and the father I could be. Long story short, we no longer saw eye to eye on many issues. We were no longer equally yoked. I was still happy to be married and to be with her, but she wasn't with me. You can't have 2 heads at the head of a house-hold, with a believer and non-believer. It doesn't work well.
Rabbi Shaul, aka Paul the Apostle, gives a midrash on this very topic. He should know. He was a member of the Jewish Sanhedrin, and to be a member of the Sanhedrin you must be married. When Rabbi Shaul was called to Yeshua HaMashiach (Jesus Christ) he lost all, including his very devout Jewish wife. More than likely she divorced him after he accepted Yeshua as the Messiah.
1 Corinthians 7:12-16 (KJV)
[12] But to the rest speak I, not the Lord: If any brother hath a wife that believeth not, and she be pleased to dwell with him, let him not put her away.
[13] And the woman which hath an husband that believeth not, and if he be pleased to dwell with her, let her not leave him.
[14] For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were your children unclean; but now are they holy.
[15] But if the unbelieving depart, let him depart. A brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases: but God hath called us to peace.
[16] For what knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save thy husband? or how knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt save thy wife?
One thing for sure that has come out of this, I'm a lot more compassionate with people who have suffered divorce. I know what its like. I now have a great deal of empathy and compassion. Nothing like going through it to take the blinders off.

Interesting, Klimmer.
I know a gal who says she was married 30 years and 26 of them were hell.
That's like the one-liner:
I've been married for 5 wonderful years . . . . . . . 10 total.

While I've been on the receiving side of bad breaks, I'll also admit to being a jerk instigator in some other break ups. Details aren't juicy enough for this crowd, but let's agree that it hurts.

Sullly, that was excellent writing...perhaps you would consider re-posting it for others edification.
