Tales from the Old Mills

By Oldmills

Dumped...

A Fella close to me got an email this morning.

An "eDear John".....

Dumped by email, a classy aspect of the 21st century communication revolution.

As an Old Fashioned Guy, he would have preferred a phone call, or, Gawd help us, an ACTUAL letter.

The Fella is unhappy, for obvious reasons.
He cut a chunk out of his life, and gave it away.
Never a Shylock, he never expected a return for his pound.
Just expected the usual "quid pro quo" of any relationship.

My friend, the abovementioned Fella, is gutted.

And discarded.

(here is a tip for lovers, or potential lovers, or just those who cherish good manners................dont dump by email. Its just wrong.)

The Fella, sitting, crying, in the corner of my living room, sobs his agreement
