There is no good way to say goodbye...For me, it does matter because no matter how you say or do it, someone is probably going to get hurt...

Probably, a "wise" way of saying "good-bye" could be: "I'll be leaving with this languid soul of mine, in this night of weariness, to be renewed with a fresher gladness of awakening." :-)

Same thing - goodbye! I was referencing the song. It is from the sound of music. A musical film and stage play starring Julie Andrews. Ostensibly it was sung by the jewish Von Trapp family on stage with the Nazis waiting to pick them up after the performance, they managed to sneak out anyway and trek to safety over the alps into Austria. very exciting for a Disney of that era. I think had they said good bye in any other way, their escape plan would have been imperiled!! keep that in mind my Celtic friend :)

Can't stand the film now though!

I don't do goodbyes. I do give a middle finger salute to those I do not like. So I guess it is a in person and never in text.

"sorry babe got another girl". Would this be too harsh?

It's always best to say it in person, unfortunately it's not always practical.....or safe....or possible....or rational....Know what I mean jellybean?.... I understand, rubberband....
