Today, my girlfriend dumped me. Her exact words used were "I like the idea of you, but I don't like you." I still don't know what that means. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my girlfriend had someone else dump me via text message. I knew it wasn't her because for once I wasn't being viciously insulted, and it wasn't written as if an illiterate baboon had taken a shit all over her keypad. I can't even feel happy about being rid of her. FML

Tell her she isn't good enough and she knows it. That's why she said that!

Just tell that its okay because you only liked the idea of her ******. But you can hardly stand being in the same room as her.

I can relate to your girlfriend, OP. You see, I used to have a girlfriend myself. I was madly in love with her. I realised, I was in love and love my idea of her, the brilliant, creative, beautiful girl who is nerdy, kind and will suck my dick. But when I did talk to her, or was actually around her, very rarely did she impress me intellectually or otherwise, not to say she never did but it was not as often as I thought, and she didn’t even suck dick well. Essentially, I’d created a persona, which exaggerated and amplified her good qualities, and diminished her bad ones and, then I attributed this persona to her. I was in love, yet I was also haunted with a concept I’ve created myself, the girl I loved didn’t exist other than in my head.

Relationships and love is not all about feelings.so i thumbed it.

I think most people have done this at one time or another. It just sucks when you get out of an 8 year relationship and realize the person you were with you couldn't stand, you were only in love with someone you created in your head based on how that person CAN be. It's not a good feeling.

I had the same issue going on too(except I'm not a guy). It's a terrible situation to be in it when you break up & try to explain to them why

She means she likes the idea of having a boyfriend, just she doesn't like you. Sorry, that kinda blows.

You just can't explain that.

I think it means that she likes the idea of having a boyfriend, but she doesn't like you in particular anymore at least. Basically, she was using you to just have a boyfriend I think; it's a good thing the relationship ended. Sorry :(
