"I'm only talking to you because I feel sorry for you." Words that hit home with the kings of creation — Relationship
In this article

Sometimes, the words of women leave wounds that are hard to heal on the kings of creation.

Touché

I disappeared for a bit but wanted to pick up the conversation again, yet she didn’t reply. When I asked why she was ignoring me, she wrote:

“Sorry, I just forgot you existed.”

Not gonna lie, that stung a little.

Caught in Doubt

I broke up with a girl who silently stared for a while, then said:

“They were right…”

I immediately started asking who she meant, but she wouldn’t say more. This was years ago, and it still hurts.

Torn Down

During an argument, I told my then-girlfriend I couldn’t believe someone could be so drama-dependent and hysterical. Without hesitation, she shot back:

“Better than being boring like you!”

I went silent and couldn’t speak for hours. That was our last conversation, and it still hurts that she thought I was boring.

Speechless

At a party, I was flirting with a girl who shut me down with this line:

“If my ego jumped off your IQ, the fall would kill me.”

My friends still laugh about this and won’t let me forget it.

A Painful Memory

A Tinder date went south right from the start when the lady introduced herself and said:

“I thought your voice would be deeper...”

Where It Hurts Most

I'm 175 cm (5'9") tall, and it’s always bothered me that I’m not at least 5-10 cm taller. During a fight, my ex said:

“You’re not tall enough to talk to me like that.”

All the words I wanted to throw back froze in my throat.

Thanks...

We were talking about movies, and it turned out we both love The Lord of the Rings. I told her how much Aragorn’s character inspired me, when she interrupted with:

“Not Frodo? You’d make such a good Frodo; you look just like him!”

Well, there were no more dates after that.

The Trump Card

I didn’t want more than the situationship we had, so I told her before she got emotionally involved that I didn’t want to be more than a friend. She laughed and replied:

“Good, I didn’t see you as more either.”

Honestly, that scraped my ego a bit...

Harsh

We broke up and I was moving out. As a parting shot, I told her she wouldn’t find anyone better than me, and she said:

“You have the confidence of someone much taller.”

I regretted opening my mouth.

Oh...

I wanted to break up and told her we should just be friends. She smiled awkwardly and said:

“Oh, I always thought we were just buddies. Not friends, buddies. My friends are more interesting people...”

That stabbed and twisted my heart, but I deserved it.

Set Straight

During our first argument, I raised my voice and angrily threw my phone at the couch. She looked at me and said we’d continue the fight only when I stopped acting like a five-year-old. I recoiled—no one had ever said that to me before. It hurt, and I still remember it whenever I start losing it.

Comeback

On the second date, I said I wasn’t looking for anything serious. Her reply:

“I am, but don’t worry, you’re not the type I’d date.”

Not gonna lie, that really hit me deep.

Insult

A month after breaking up, I texted my ex saying I missed her. Her reply:

“It’s okay, you’ll get used to it.”

Pride

I was dating a sweet girl, but she looked nothing like her edited photos in person. When she finally got me to admit why there wouldn’t be another date, she thought for a moment and said:

“But at least I have a pretty smile!”

That was four years ago, and I still question my smile.

Out of Pity

I thought things were going well with a girl until she quickly cooled my enthusiasm by saying:

“I’m only talking to you because I feel sorry for you.”
