I'm not the only one who has been dumped by email. It was a few days after my birthday. My boyfriend of a year and a half, who I was crazy about, was in Iraq. I had just sent him a care package that had cost me a fair bit, and of course I was worried sick about him because I rarely heard from him.
He emailed me that it was over--here's the kicker--and CCed it to someone with a very girly email address.
