<your gender here> : “Hi, I think we should not be seeing each other here.”! –> henceforth referred to as “dumper”
<(ex-)partners gender here (precaution taken not to write opposite gender only, and invite the wrath of “the community”)> : “Naaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnnnnn!!!” –>  henceforth referred to as “dumped”
There comes a time in every human’s life when you realize that who you thought was your “special one” or something of the sort, but their very presence only makes you want to run away. Far away. So its basically a very sad state to be in and the only escape?? A BREAK-UP! The word pair that drives a shiver down any guys spine and a tear down an average girl’s cheek. But break-ups are essential for a better relation to grow (Weird, but true!).
<Dumper>: “Yeah, it’s not the best idea for us to continue like this, we are heading nowhere!”
<Dumped>: “……”
Though I’m not much for focus on the dodgy waters of “relationships”, the break-ups caught my eye. In my years of service as a student first at a school, and now at a larger institution (a college, in very glorified terms), i have come across a wide variety of break-ups. And even more interesting are the behaviours of the people who indulge in these acts. Interestingly weird, others call it. Hence it was, but natural for me to take an interest in this very issue.
So, there exist a variety of dumpers. Lets begin with the most common, the clichéd dumper. The most boring and un-imaginative type. Repeating the same old off-beat statements that have been passed down the generations, and mostly have become obsolete. Its better to get dumped by these people than go on trying to work things out with them, they are dull and stupid, and as someone aptly had said “fame is fleeting, but stupidity…… Eternal!”.
<Dumper>: “Its not you, its me. You are perfect, but I just am not looking for something serious at the moment. You deserve better than me. I am sorry but i just cannot impose myself on you anymore.”
<Dumped>(Ideal response) : “Hell yeah! i deserve someone who can at least break up with me in a non-textbook manner. You got that damn straight, i deserve someone who can actually make me cry! Goddammit you just make me laugh. Hence, (with panache)Break-up or not… frankly, I don’t give a damn!”
We move our focus over to the textual dumper. The most wrath-invoking bunch. They like to believe in a phrase they wrongly heard from somewhere as “words speak louder than actions”. Taking it further, clearly the fact that texts speak louder than words and thereby are the loudest, is apparent reality to them. Very very intriguing is this particular dumper. He has the guts to type out an entire text highlighting the shortcomings of the relationship, but not the vitals to actually spit it out on the face. The best case in this category i have seen was when the dumper, actually topped off the message with an emoticon!! I really don’t see how anyone would take such a message seriously,
<Dumper>: “i thnk v shd nt c ech odr nemr, v r jst 2 diff 2 b 2gdr. i m sry bt v hv 2 brk up! :-( :-/ ”
<Dumped>: “LOL… :-D …. OMG, r u crs? bt y? OMG OMG OMG, ds is nt hpnin. OMG cn v atlst meet(i frankly don’t know how to shorten “meet”) 1ce b4 v do ds? OMG no! :’-( ”
Leaving them to their half-conversations, i cast an eye upon the Maroon-5 dumper gang. The most vivacious lot. They break up, and then slip into an everlasting cocoon of depression and stuff that over time, gets really annoying!! Yeah, some of their songs are good, but please try a different them once in a while!!
<Maroon-5>: “I’m not fine, I’m in pain, Its harder everyday…. Maybe we’re better off this way, its better that we break…”
<Dumped>: “Uhh…. *sob* Ok..”

******** 10 years later ********

<Maroon-5>: “This love has taken its toll on me, she said goodbye too many times before. I have no choice, cuz i wont say goodbye anymore! ……… ”
<Marooned-5>: “Dude, we broke up ages ago!! Get over it!!”

To dump, or not to dump that is not the question! How to dump!? That is the question, and generations have come and gone, but none have found the secret to a perfect break-up! Maybe we shall, some day!! But till then, tears shall be shed and wails will take the skies by storm as this never-ending war against emotions, shall take its casualties!
