Survey Says
Introducing the Seamless Breakup

The relationship exit strategy.
You’re well versed.
The “It’s not you, it’s me.” The “Look, you’re great, but my country needs me.” The enduring
genius of the fake death.
But there’s another way. One that doesn’t involve hiring actors to play your distraught family at a
Potemkin funeral.
Introducing
WotWentWrong, a Web app where you’ll answer their burning what-went-wrong questions
without ever seeing them again, online now.
This app... well, it lets your jilted dates kindly request an explanation (in a convenient online survey
form) for why you vanished. Now, we’d never suggest you’d do something like not calling back after a
date. But life happens. Phones break. Amnesia strikes when you least expect it. The problem: that Peruvian
cocoa butter spokesmodel who turned out to be a little fierier than you bargained for really thought things
were going great. And now, answers are needed.
Let them down softly like this: first, they’ll send a gently worded request (note: gentleness not
guaranteed) in an email or a text for you to answer a few questions about them. Then, you’ll be a sport
and answer. You’ll kindly, carefully break it to them that they’re a touch too clingy. Or that it
wasn’t endearing when they said, “That’s funny” instead of laughing. Once you finish, they’ll get
some closure from your feedback, along with a little advice.
No one takes advice like a scorned ex.
