What A Dumpy Way To Do That

(One of my long-term friends has a pretty unconventional way of doing things, and this unusual streak runs through every aspect of his life. He tells me this story about a conversation he had with his girlfriend at home.)
Friend: “[Girlfriend], we need to talk about something.”
Girlfriend: “Sure, what’s on your mind?”
Friend: “I don’t think I want you to be my girlfriend anymore.”
Girlfriend: “Sure, so what do you want to talk about?”
Friend: “I’m being serious; I don’t want you to be my girlfriend anymore.”
Girlfriend: “Er… what?”
Friend: “Yeah, I just felt it wasn’t working, so, yeah, we’re going to have to reevaluate things between us.”
Girlfriend: *getting pretty angry* “Are you even going to give me a reason? You can’t just stroll in and dump me and expect me to fine with it. Are you seeing someone else?”
Friend: “Not at all. I just don’t want you to be my girlfriend anymore…” *gets down on one knee and produces a ring* “… because I’d much rather have you as my fiancée, instead.”
Girlfriend: *in tears and borderline hysterical* “YOU A**HOLE! YES!”
(He then calmed her down and took her out to her favourite restaurant for a meal. I told him that the fact she didn’t at least backhand him for that is proof that they’re made for each other.)
