" You were just too good for me " - so why end a good thing ?

[BelleCarolinaPeridot]

" You were just too good for me " - that is what my former boyfriend told me . Why is it so easy for people to accept trash in this world and throw away the good things . I am so tired of being tossed away because I have a good heart . Damn . No I am not coping well at all ...

2. Sorry

I've heard that line before too. I think in part what it may mean is that that person doesn't want to be held to a standard-even if you have no intention of doing so.

I remember once I was told by someone that I would probably have a difficult time finding someone good enough for me. As it turns out, they were right, and now that I have I see that I kept trying to lower my standards in finding someone, rather than raising them. Once I stopped that, things started to change.

3. translation: "You're just too good for me"

"I have met someone else who 'rings my bell', and I am not brave enough to tell you I wnat OUT....so I will toss this platitude out, so you can wonder what YOU might have done different to KEEP me, and make you doubt that YOU have what it takes to have a good relationship...meanwhile I will be enjoyng my new relationship, secure in the knowledge that I did not "hurt" you".. :puke:

4. That is so rarey an honest reason for a breakup.

I'm very sorry. I know this sucks. :hug:

Usually, an excuse like that means that it was just a different type of relationship than what he wanted.

5. i think sometimes saying "you were just too good for me" is people's way

of saying that they are "no good - rotten eggs".

you must have cared a lot. he is the one who is on the losing end of good.
