 Posted: 08/27/04 - 16:21 Post subject: The Top Five Female Brush-Off Phrases
Do any of these ring a bell boys?
1. "I think that we're really just in different places in our lives..."
2. "My plate is just so full. You know, I've got a lot of pressure at work and my sick mother to take care of, and my volunteer church activities, and my acting class. There's really no room in my life for a relationship now" or "I'm just not ready for a relationship..." (Add your own variation here.)
3. "I think we need to take some time off." And the variation: "I need some space right now."
4. "Something has changed. I don't even know what it is," which often leads into the dreaded, "It's not you... it's me."
5. And my favorite, "I love you, but I am not happy."
I've heard two of these in my past...

Men use that lame ass crap too when they don't have the cajones to just end it cleanly.  You've all taught us well.

I thought they were pretty hilarious.

Damn, I miss that rolleyes smilie.....

"You bore me" always works. I once used "all three of my brothers hate you and will beat you up if you don't go away", but only after trying a variation of #4.
