Getting over Mr Right

It goes without saying that there is no nice way to be dumped, but there are definitely some ways that cause less toe-curling anguish than others. A face-to-face conversation or a phone call if you're dating long-distance seem to be the best of a bad bunch. A handwritten letter would show some respect, but since eighties pop star and very unlikely heart-throb Phil Collins dumped his first wife by fax, standards of ending etiquette have been dropping dramatically. From Phil's fax to the horror of email to Britney dumping K-Fed by SMS. Oh, how I wish my ex had had the old-fashioned decency, to dump me by text message ! You see, I, Ashleigh Prince, found out that I had been dumped via Facebook.
