How I break up with girls

  I don’t lower the boom or pull the band-aid off quickly. In potentially high drama situations, I simply don’t trust a lot of the girls I dump to not come at me with a carved wooden swordfish. (It’s happened.) Nor do I break up like a beta through text or email. Nope, I just let it fade. Taking the easy way out has its virtues. No muss, no fuss.
  
  So I kind of let the end sneak up on her. I gradually see her less. Whenever she wants to do something I say “Sure… I guess.” I don’t return calls promptly. I make a big production of NOT being chivalrous. I spend even less money on her than I normally do. Eventually, a whole week goes by where I haven’t seen her, or more than a day passes before I’ve returned a call, or she gets hit in the ass by a revolving door that I’ve barreled through first, or I’ve started recycling my “free date” options where I get to do the things I wanted to do anyhow (like sample all the Fenders in Guitar Center) and she gets to be a spectator. It’s at this point that she scratches her head and wonders “Wow, I think we’re broken up. What just happened?”
  
  That’s my MO. I’ll know I have succeeded when I can get the girl to ask herself ”What just happened?”
  
  What just happened is you have crossed paths with Maximus.
  
  This has worked brilliantly over the past 24 years.

  You must be pretty old then.

  Suppose this means you've dated a rather notable number of girls.
  
  And then you dumped quite a number of them.
  
  Says a thing or two about a person.

  I just meant I was 24 years old.
  
  @Cucurbita: What does that say about me? I just know how to play the game. That's simply all. I love the thrill of the chase.

  You're a punk. I can't even start much of a real conversation with the girl I like.

  It seems to me that you lack the simple virtue of confidence in one's self to simply go to her and tell her, "I no longer want to be in a relationship with you."

  Why waste your time? Why not just go and tell her straight up?

  Dating, I think, shouldn't be considered a "game". It's not one of those dating sims that people play for kicks. It's real life, with real people, with complex emotions and thoughts that no program can capture with current technology.
  Especially after reading your other posts about marriage, I find you to be, with all due respect, an egotistical person.
  Maybe that's how you look at the world, your play thing, but I find your method to be objectionable and cowardly. I also find it cruel if you're dating a girl to have your fun with your "game".

  You, sir, should go burn in hell.
  
  Girls are not your toys, and I feel sickened to hear you talk about them as if you could control them with your fingertips.
  I think you should go take a few psychology classes and then come back with better ways to handle situations like these
