Phrase used exclusively by shallow self-absorbed individuals who actually have no concept of what it means to love or be loved. Their hearts are vacant and usually associate sex not with a deeply emotional or spiritual experience but rather purely a physical and transient act involving no emotion. Such individuals are limited in both intellect and in normal socialization skills. People who use this overused cliche usually suffer from a combination of schizotypal disorder and sociopathy. A catch-all phrase when the person doing the dumping knows there is no reason for the relationship to end, other than for purely selfish reasons of wanting to pursue sexual relations with other individuals outside of the current relationship.

I love you but I'm not in love with you

Translation:

I don't love you and I want to experiment with other people

okay...so i'm single now...I myself am extremely confused...maybe someone can explain it to me cause he certainly couldnt...to explain it to me all he could say was "i love you but im not IN love with you" aka he gave me a cop-out...

how does someone go from thursday night...looking at you like you are the world...touching you like you are...introducing you to people as the girl he is going to marry some day...then because of two stupid fights...one of which he misunderstood me...all of a sudden NOT love the person? It doesn't work like that. Saturday he wanted to be left alone...okay...then he kept calling and texting...esp when i was trying to sleep so i told him it was annoying and he flipped out...almost broke up with me sunday but then told me he still loved me and stuff and was fine...then monday i went to his house and he was fine...looking at me the same...then suddenly he told me he wasn't happy.

and then he starts crying to me...saying he isnt over his ex! wtf? he breaks up with a girl who treated him right for 6 MONTHS because of his EX? he was crying his head off and idk it almost seemed forced? i'm so confused. then he told me i was a rebound and he never loved me. which was bullshit cause I saw it in his eyes. people can lie but eyes can't.

i'm just so annoyed and confused.

he then told me maybe it was cause of the fights...
if conflict affects him that bad then he will never have a healthy relationship...and it's a fact cause our fights werent bad. idk.

it really annoys me that he had me come over and fucked me one last time before he dumped me. he claims it was to "see if he could get it back" wtf? he KNOWS how emotional it is for me....and im emotional for a while after...you just dont do that...

everyone is saying they think his grandma said something.

wtf.

i'm having trouble eating right now...i mean our relationship was great...it really was...he always said "the good times more than make up for the bad" and its hard to think that just a week ago he was so excited for me to get out of work and come over to go skating and then when his grandparents came he was RUNNING to introduce me and he looked at me so proud and then he let us go... im so disappointed...disappointe
