Lovers turn to text message to say it's over - Yahoo! NewsLovers turn to text message to say it's over

LONDON (Reuters) - U R dumped -- one in seven say they have suffered the same fate as Britney Spears' ex-husband and been told it's all over via text message or email, a survey said on Friday.
While hiding behind technology might appear a cowardly way of splitting up, it contrasts with the four percent who simply drop all communication with their lovers without notice.
"Most of us send emails and texts everyday, so it comes as no surprise they are now being used to ditch someone -- however distasteful this is," said Rob Barnes from moneysupermarket.com, which carried out the survey.
"The results show one per cent of the population would use a social networking site to dump a partner. It would be interesting to see how this changes as sites such as Facebook and MySpace become more apparent in our everyday lives."
One of the most high-profile victims of dumping by text was Kevin Federline, who reportedly received news that pop singer Spears was filing for divorce while being filmed for a television show.
The survey said 15 percent of the 2,194 people questioned had been dumped by text or email, although a quarter of those in the most tech-savvy 18 to 24-year-old age group would choose the traditional method -- a letter.

I got "I'm not committed enough to this relationship for it to be fulfilling to you" that was pretty sweet... I was wondering if it were a conversation meant for someone else; who actually uses words like commitment?

^^ No way!
OT: Back in the day when I was dumped, there was no such thing as text message. Guess I was lucky.
Vodka and buttfucking for all!

Hello mother fucker! when you ask a question read also the answer instead of asking another question on an answer who already contain the answer of your next question!

Yep, Chilly. And she'd worked there for 3+ years. The shithead didn't have the guts to tell her she was fired to her face.
It is so cowardly. I'd think so much less of someone if i knew they had done this.
