    In the spirit of Valentine's Day, what is your Seinfield-esque, superficial reason for dumping someone you dated ?

    I feel bad about it now, even though there were other reasons, but I broke up with a girl a few months ago because she had that weird thing where her corner teeth were a light shade of yellow compared to the rest. I remember going in for a kiss one time while she was driving and I kept my eyes open and she smiled and I saw it up close and I wanted to like get out of the car in the middle of traffic and just run away. The more I think about it, the less I feel bad because thats just bad hygiene. Plus, she was really over-the-top dramatic and lied about really weird things. But I know if her teeth were nice and her hair wasnt so curly I would have probably stayed with her depsite that.

    I'm a horrible person.

    I broke up with a guirl once because she bored me. And I was honest with her. "I don't want to go out with you anymore because you bore me to tears."

    I broke up with a girl one time over the Pink Floyd song, "Dogs". In all seriousness, that relationship wasn't going anywhere and there were other things but I always thought it would make for a cool story. Today, she is probably my closest female friend.

    Another time I broke up with a girl because she ordered 2 Bahama Mamas on our 2nd date. Yea, I know I really needed to loosen up back then but I just thought it was somewhat tacky to order 2 alcoholic beverages on just the 2nd date. I remember faking that I wasn't feeling well to get out of watching a movie with her and then telling her I would call her sometime. Never did and I have always felt bad about that as I have had many women do the same thing to me. And no matter how many times it happens to you, it always sucks. :(

    You broke up with her because she ordered them both at once? Was it two for one night at the bar? Or was it just because in general, ordering a Bahama Mama is tacky when there are so many other options?

    One of my college roomates broke up with a girl because her mother was fat.

    He liked her, she was pretty but he was sure she would get fat after seeing her mother.

    Here's a superficial/stupidficial reason to break up with a girlfriend.....

    .....because your parents say "oh you can do better than THAT, can't you?"

    True story :(

    She's the one I should have married, but it would have meant living in Los Angeles for the rest of my life, and I think that would have killed me very quickly.

    Guys, don't try this at home.

    I tended to stay in bad relationships longer than I should have because, well, I liked the ass being there. But my last relationship, I got the worst excuse. You like sports and Dave Matthews Band too much. And that's what her mom told her to say.

    Why I was upset over that one ending, I'll never know.

    I was dating this girl once and she was pretty good looking and we got along well. When she wanted to go the next step and become exclusive, the best excuse that I could come up with was that I didn't want a girlfriend because I was too lazy to put the effort that it would take to make the relationship work.

    She ended up sleeping with my brother to get me back. I was happy for him since she was pretty hot.

    George: Don't go. Kramer:! Come back. I got great news. Well, I did it.

    Jerry: Did what?

    George: I got engaged. I'm getting married. I asked Susan: to marry me. We're getting married this Christmas.

    Jerry: You're getting married?

    George: Yes!

    Jerry: Oh, my god!

    George: I'm a man. Jerry:, I'm a man. And do you know why? It's because of that talk we had. You were my inspiration. Do you believe it? You. That lunch was the defining moment of my life.

    Jerry: I'm blown away.

    George: You're blown?

    Jerry: Wow!

    George: You like that?

    Jerry: And she said "Yes"?

    George: It took a couple of hours of convincing. I was just like those guys in the movies. And it worked! She said "Yes"! I can't believe my luck that she was still available . A beautiful woman like that. You think she's good looking, right?

    Jerry: You're gonna have gorgeous kids.

    George: Yes. She's got great skin - a rosy glow..

    Jerry: Pinkish hue?

    George: Oh, she's got the hue. So, what's going on with you and Melanie? I mean, I know you're not getting married, but uh, things are happening?

    Jerry: Well...actually, we kind of broke up.

    George: You what?

    Jerry: Well, you know, we were having dinner the other night, and she's got this strangest habit. She eats her peas one at a time. You've never seen anything like it. It takes her an hour to finish them. I mean, we've had dinner other times. I've seen her eat Corn Niblets. 4But she scooped them.

    I had one kinda like that... she just didn't seem to have any opinions, or passions, about anything. She was very nice and pleasant to everyone, yeah... but she just never had anything at all meaningful to say. Very boring.

    That's not really superficial. If you lack common interests and there's no substance there it's not going to last anyway.

    I got one. One time I said her ass looked fat in the mirror, which she took great offense to. I can't stay with a woman who doesn't like my sense of humor.

    She had a tendency to really not talk about anything but how bad her week was. She was always having bad weeks. She would tell me what happened etc, and tell me all the names of the people who did this and that.

    I hate it when people start naming others, that I have never met and never will, but continue to talk about them and tell me about them about the problems etc.

    I live in New York. One day, at JFL Airport, I met a girl at baggage claim and we split a cab to the city. She was blonde, skinny, and cute, she was an actress, and said that she would be on Law & Order SVU on Tuesday night, playing a meth addict. We exchanged numbers.

    So I watched the Law & Order SVU on Tuesday, and man, that chick looked NASTY! I know it was just makeup and all, but still. It gave me the shivers. I never called her.
