Hi Belle,
Per your request I will explain why I thought that the email that you sent to Louis was rude.
I am not that good with words like all the other people who responded on your thread here, but I will try to explain as good as I can why I think that your mail was rude.
- You started the mail with blaming him already: you blamed him for not replying to your mails. However, as he mentioned in his response (and I think you also mentioned earlier in your own mails in your thread) he didn’t have the opportunity the last few days to keep writing back and forth. Why didn't you respect him in that? Also, in this matter I agree with what Lynn said: sending him several mails after your break-up wasn’t a good approach from the beginning.
- In the second line in your mail you are being suggestive with the words "him being busy with his new chickies". I don’t know why you mention it the first place because the two of you broke up...Also, he denied it, so it is your words against his, and...does it really matter? No, it doesn't, because you both broke up. Heck, you had already a date with another guy since the relationship with Louis ended, right?
- You ended the first paragraph with the remark that he wouldn't even care in reading your mail. This is another unpleasant remark, in my opinion...I think these kind of remarks just have set the tone for his response.
- Towards the end of the mail: it was nice of you that you wish him the best in finding the one that he is looking for, but...you couldn't leave it with that: you had to add that the next girl would be hurt the same way like you are. At least Louis showed the respect in wishing you to find the right person in the future. He didn't add any blaming here. This "blaming game" again...does this really help yourself for the future?
When you started your mail with the information that you would delete Louis from FB, I thought: great! But when I read the mail that you sent him, I noticed that you couldn't leave your own hurt and anger out of it. I wasn't really surprised about his response.
I am sorry, this is probably not the kind of mail you like to read but it is my opinion and of course, you can do with it whatever you like
Wishing you the best,
John

This may be a very long reply.. I'll see how I go.

Can you explain why the email was rude? I didn't intend it to be rude in any way. I was expressing my feelings and thoughts and I was angry at him. I wanted to let him know the reasons for deleting him.
Thanks everyone xxx
