Sad as it is - I think the most messed up thing to do is to break up with someone right before the holidays.....why couldnt it be done way before so at least she had a chance to "get herself together" and find friends to be there for her.... A somewhat similiar situation just happened to me....I had asked this person if he wanted to be with me for New Years and he said yes (this was last week) just to be told on the phone 3 days ago that he "didnt feel THAT way about me"..???? oh well what can you do.....but RIGHT before New Years?! Even though it really bothered me, I could understand - a holiday is shared with people you love and love you....... He is and always will be my friend..to bad it was tainted alittle.
