Why Guys Dump Girls They Dig♥
1. The Timing Is Off !
2. We're Not Finished Playing the Field !!
3. We're Fixated on the Worst-Case Scenario ?!?
4. We're in Like, Not in Love !?
5. We're Too into You ??!!?!
Just when you thought it was all bad news, here's a hard-to-fess-up admission: Guys are
protective of their emotions. Translation: We're scared of being hurt. So, if we start to feel like
we're getting into a situation where we'll be destroyed if you dump us, we might launch a
preemptive strike and yank the plug first. For Gary, 27, showing his girlfriend of two years the
exit felt like the only choice. "She was the first girl I was serious with, and I didn't like letting
someone have that much power over me. I was starting to feel emotionally needy, and that was
uncomfortable for me," he recalls. "So I ditched her to save myself!"
Sounds crazy, but cut us some slack. Think about how vulnerable and paranoid you feel when you're nuts about a guy, and realize that we go through the same thing with girls we really like. But our friends aren't as good at helping us get over an ex as yours are, plus being openly heartbroken makes us look like wusses. Nope, it's better to act like a winner before you turn us into a loser, which is when our natural self-preservation may come into play. Before the real humiliation and pain assail us like a plague, ending the relationship seems like a good option.
OH YEAA ??!?<strong>
