The Email Break up: Richard Jefferson

I'm not sure if you all have heard this story, It's about 2 weeks old but it's nosey news that will start discussions amongst your email and facebook friends so I'll tell you the story. Okay kids this is what happened...

Former net star Richard Jefferson was supposed to marry his girlfriend of 5 years. Two days before the wedding he sends her an email saying that THE WEDDING IS OFF... okay you say "damn he broke up with her on an email?" technically yea but little did the world report is that they had been going through some ish and at the last minute he made the decision to call off the wedding. He told his family prior to him breaking it off maybe that same day of the email, but because a lot of her family and guest were already in pursuit of the wedding, she decided to just hold a dinner party so that she can be among family and friends.

"There was a lot of stress and tension in the relationship. We've been through a lot -- but we just couldn't continue," said Jefferson, sounding upset during a telephone interview.

This was not as bad as it seemed she got a nice 6 figure severance lump some$$$$$$$$, he said it was for her to be able to start her life over and move on. To read the whole story CLICK HERE


MY TWO Cents: In this day and age when people are getting married because it's the new cool thing to do, I feel good that he/they had the sense to walk away from their toxic relationship. Some people are good by themselves but together they are toxic to each other. without properly getting their lives in order and clearing up past issues that are important they are going ahead and jumping the gun. Think before you make life long decisions. You can always love someone and remember the things that you did for each other and have gone through together, but if it's not meant for you to be together then don't do it. it's not fair to you and it's not fair to that other person. Jefferson made a decision that must have killed him, the guilt that he must have felt to have to tell someone you love that you can't be together. No doubt, I can even begin to imagine how she must have felt. Woman always feel like they can make things work with the man they love. Sometimes trying to glue back something that is too far broken on leads to an ugly mess in the end.

Because he loved her he even hit her off with a good sum of money. he didn't have to do that. she wasn't entitled to anything, but he did. Sometimes you just need to cut your losses and GO SHOPPING with the ring that you got from pawning in you ring.
