Today, in an attempt to break up with my boyfriend, I told him, "I don't feel a mental connection between us." His reply? "Why do we need a mental connection?" FML

Today, I had a mental breakdown. Many things have been going completely wrong in my life, and I finally decided to let my boyfriend know about it. After about an hour of explaining and pouring my heart out, his response was, "I think we were better off as friends." FML
Today, I told my boyfriend, "We need to talk." He said, "I know". So we met after school, and he said he was OK with me breaking up with him, that he wasn't that into me either. He said all that before I could tell him that my parents wanted to meet him. FML
Today, I tried to break up with my boyfriend. He said no. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I broke up. I said that at least I was always there for him when he needed me. He said "When did I need you?" FML
Today, I told my man I was feeling a lack of emotional closeness and dialogue in our relationship. I'd hoped for a comeback like, "So what do you need in order to change that?" Or even, "Aw, come here, let's cuddle!" Instead, I got a simple, "I don't." FML
Today, my boyfriend called and asked me why I love him. I told him because he's always there for me and continues to put up with my bipolar disorder. He promptly said "not anymore" and hung up. FML
Today, in the same sentence, my boyfriend told me that he wanted to "spend the rest of his life with me," and "I want to break up with you because I can't face your family." FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me. I've heard some weird reasons before, but "My future self told me to" is a new one. FML
Today, I told my boyfriend of nine months that depression runs in my family and I think the reason I've been flipping shit so much lately may be that I am depressed. Not five minutes later he decided a break would be "the best thing for us right now." FML
Today, my boyfriend of 3 months decided to end our long-distance relationship out of the blue, because he "lost interest" and "our families don't approve" and "you deserve better than me" and "I'm holding you back." He took my heart and shattered against the wall. FML

Let him know you don't need a physical connection.

Maybe you can just outsmart him and trick him into breaking up with you. He seems pretty dumb.

Take it as your hot, but you were dumb enough to date him.

Perhaps he doesn't have anything to mentally connect with? Why do people go to massive lengths to make breaking up with someone easy on the other person. There is no such thing as an "easy" or "good" breakup. Just friggin say what you have to say and get it over with.

well maybe you don't have a strong mental connection because you have a bad physical connection. makes a big difference

Because saying we don't have a mental connection isn't explaining anything at all in no way shape or form. What is considered mental connection it can't be physical or emotional so is it smarts or maybe life views, political views, values, goals? Or just a vague half assed excuse

Aaaaaaand that's your answer. OP, he sounds like a dipshit.
