Doing something stupid gets them asking what’s wrong with you. Rejecting them gets them thinking what’s wrong with them

But I still say honesty is the best policy
ah thanks for the behavioral health expert opinion on the matter you brought up a good point

i have on a few occasions pulled the, "Im a fuckin crazy psycho asshole" instead of saying, "I met someone hotter than you, and was only with you for a regular fuck"

so i am an asshole, that doesn't want to hurt people. I'm totally cool with being the bad guy if it can spare the feelings of another.

of course sometimes, im the bad guy out of necessity.

Whoa hold up, I didn’t mean be brutally honest

Just like firing someone, less is more. The more reasons you give for the firing, the more you open yourself up to arguments

So no, I would NOT recommend saying things like “I met someone hotter” or “sorry you’re just a little too ugly for me” or anything like that

Less is more. Yknow the cookie cutter “sorry it’s not working out”? That’s really all you need. If they press it’s up to you what you want to give, but I would keep it about actual true honest stuff about you, like “sorry I just don’t want a serious relationship right now” or “sorry I have attachment issues” even

Unless you think there’s something about them that they would want to know about and could easily fix, sort of the “you have food on your face” scenario. Everyone would want to be told that even though it’s embarrassing because it’s simple to wipe it away. Anything that approaches that easy to fix could be worth mentioning. Complex issues about them, I wouldn’t recommend bringing up if you don’t see how it could have a productive result
