Maybe it isn't the best approach is soften the wording and isn't 100% honest, but telling it straight up hurts the other person much more. I know this for a fact as my H was very blunt when he dropped the bomb 07/20/10. H said I don't love you, we aren't friends, as a couple we are dead, etc. Pretty tough words to hear.
Yes it may hurt more.
Interesting though, that EVEN though he told you straight up all of those things that you say he said to you, that you are no differeent than the others. You are STILL trying to win him back. What does it take for a WS to tell a BS that it is OVER and for the BS to get it and give up?????
ILYBNILWY doesn't work. I only want to be friends doesn't work.. And now we see that just being mean and nasty and hurtful doesn't work to get the BS to let go....
