wait, you come here asking for "excuses" to give her as to why you want to break up with her but you don't want to be "totally dishonest"?? Maybe a little dishonest is ok though?

dude, just tell her how you feel.

Reading comprehension FTL. The only question he asked was the best way to break up with her without having to go through the awkwardness of asking her out to dinner first. He never asked for excuses, and he never asked for advice on what to tell her. Are you commenting in the wrong thread, or do you simply put the same BS in every post regardless of the subject?

he specifically asked for excuses, even used the word "excuses" several times...

"I'm wondering if someone can come up with an excuse for me "
"Dude, I'm just wondering if someone can think of a good excuse "
"just seeing if someone can think of a good excuse"

"Dude, I'm just wondering if someone can think of a good excuse to go over there without dragging her to an uncomfortable dinner. I'm merely claiming I'm mature, not creative. I'm not asking for advice on how to run my life, just seeing if someone can think of a good excuse. That's it. Not a big deal. If I don't see something that sounds like a good idea, I'll just have her out for dinner Thursday and be done with it. "

"I completely understand, but I'm not looking for relationship "advice." I'm wondering if someone can come up with an excuse for me to stop by for a short time"

When you pulled those quotes out, you had to have read the words surrounding them where he specifically says what he wants an excuse for. You had to know i would go back and bring in the entire context. If you didn't you're an idiot, if you did then you're a troll.... which is it?

sorry, you said "He never asked for excuses, and he never asked for advice on what to tell her" i proved you wrong on part 1 and he just proved you wrong in his last post.

Read what I'm saying not what you want to get out of it. I know I used the word excuse, but everyone but you can see I'm not trying to make some ridiculous, bold-faced LIE to her, I just want a segue to use for going to her house. So, to sum up:

- I don't want to sit uncomfortably with her at dinner
- I would rather not make it obvious that I'm going over there to break up with her; then she just dreads the whole thing until I get there

I'm done responding to you now.

where did this whole dinner thing come into play? have you never dumped a girl before? don't do something special with her and then end it immediately after. DVad3r pretty much gave you the best advice, and i'm going to tell you the same thing. just show up at her house and sit down with her and talk and break up. simple, easy, painless.
