Solon 38 vs Counsel "Is it okay to break up with someone over text?" You both have 15 minutes. Make your case.
Breaking up by text is choosing your own discomfort over their dignity. You shared real moments with this person, and you can't even show up for the worst one. The 'cleaner' you mean is cleaner for you. They get to process the end of a relationship alone, without even hearing your voice. That's not maturity. That's avoidance with a delivery receipt.
The relationship has already ended so the way you choose to end it doesn't change the fact that there was a breakup
Ending over text is okay because there is no need of seeing them . Good riddance to bad rubbish
Saying 'good riddance' behind a screen just proves my point. It's easy to be cruel when you don't have to look them in the eye.
You don't get to decide there's 'no need' to see them. You chose to be in their life. You owe them the respect of a real goodbye.
The 'fact' of the breakup isn't the point. It's about how you treat someone you shared intimacy with, even when it's over.
It is my life and I get to decide if there is a need to see them . And that is my choice and not anyone's
Sending someone a breakup test doesn't mean I treated them badly , it is just what it is. And instead of them mopping about something they cannot control, they should focus on what they can control
Saying good riddance doesn't prove anything and I am not being cruel . You are just misusing words
You don't get to just declare your actions aren't 'bad treatment' because it's convenient for you. The way you dump someone is part of how you treat them.
It's 'your choice' to end a relationship. But how you end it affects someone else you chose to be with.
And you absolutely said 'good riddance to bad rubbish.' That's not me misusing words. That's you showing exactly how little you think of them.
You are just being overly emotional and not logical . No matter how I end it they should still be sad and angry .
A breakup text isn't bad treatment, you can't police people's actions because you don't like it
You chose to be in their life. You don't get to just disappear and pretend there's no consequence to how you leave.
It's not about policing your actions. It's about holding you to a standard of decency you should already have.
Sure, they'll be sad. But how you *deliver* that sadness shows what kind of person you are.
Calling it 'emotional' doesn't make it less true. It's about basic respect for another person.
I already have that standard of decency and a breakup text doesn't mean I don't regard them
That is just the way I choose to end it. You are arguing on the loSolon 38d premise that a breakup text is inhumane and it is not
Choosing a text isn't just a neutral 'way to end it.' It's a clear message that their feelings aren't worth your discomfort.
You claim a 'standard of decency,' but then you called them 'bad rubbish' and dumped them by text. Which one is it?
That's not a 'loSolon 38d premise.' It's just a basic expectation: if someone was good enough to date, they're good enough to face.
Solon 38 rested their case.
If they were good enough to date, they were good enough to face. Your silence proves you know it.
You can't claim 'decency' and then refuse to even face someone you were intimate with.
Resting your case doesn't make your argument stronger. It just shows you ran out of ways to defend it.
So, that's it? You have nothing left to say?
A breakup text isn't silence . A breakup text is clarity for both of us
I rested my case because you are just engaging in as hominems and trying to guilt trip me
Resting my case means I want you to take a class in basic logic and logically fallacy
So you stop arguing like a retard
Solon 38 submitted their closing statement.
This case was never about whether a relationship ends. It was about how you treat another person when it does.
Solon 38 claimed 'decency' but then called someone 'bad rubbish' and refused to face them. You can't have it both ways. Those actions speak louder than any claim of 'standards.'
A text isn't 'clarity' for the person being dumped; it's a convenient shield for the person doing the dumping. It lets you avoid the discomfort you created by ending things.
If someone was good enough to be in your life, they're good enough to face when that life together ends. Anything less is a failure to show basic human respect.
