Have you ever got dumped for what you and other people consider a small thing ?

I mean for example: not ringing someone back on time
turning up to the date late
turning up drunk or out of it

ive recently been binned off as I prefer to call it, no talking no explanation.. I made a mistake but his reaction seems quite extreme. Unless of course he didn’t like me :)

I don't think I have, no. But turning up drunk, or out of it, wouldn't be a small thing for me: I might be ok with it with someone I knew well and loved, but early on in a relationship it would be a no-no.

Depends on the mistake?

But people won’t usually dump someone they’re really into over a small mishap.

I suspect some people are dumped for what to them looks like a one off mistake, but to the other person looks like the last straw in a pattern of unpleasant or thoughtless behaviour.

Turning up late is rude and shows disregard for someone else's time.

Turning up drunk and thinking that was a small trivial matter would highlight an incompatibility.

I was dumped from a 2 year relationship for not knowing what his favourite veg was Hmm Turns out he was shagging someone else. I'm quite proud that was the worst thing he could come up with Grin
