Overview
Daniel broke up with his girlfriend through Skype text messages after initially blocking her on Line and removing Skype from his phone.
Daniel decided to send a breakup message rather than completely ghosting her upon hearing her sad voicemail, mindful of his own past experience of being ignored.
The reasons Daniel ended the relationship include a lack of physical attraction, no shared interests, and an absence of engaging conversation.
Daniel felt guilt and self-reproach over prioritizing sex, his past severe shifts in commitment, and prior plans to marry her or rent an apartment in Japan.
Daniel refrained from sharing his YouTube channel with her due to language barriers and videos addressing past relationships and other women.
