dear John letter 

1. A letter sent by a girlfriend (usually) explaining to her guy that she has no wish to see him any more, or that the relationship is not working out. Equivalent when the target is female is the dear Jeannie letter.

2. Letter from a would-be employer regretfully informing a job applicant that for one reason or another, which may or may not be given, they didn't make it.

Marie, not being the most confident girl on the block, gave Desmond her dear John letter after he ogled too many women on the beach.

I just got the dear John letter from ToyMaster last week.

Dear John Email 

A generic email from HR telling you that you have not received the job you applied for. It contains many of the same elements as a dear John letter. We like you very much, we appreciate that you like us as well, but their are other people that we more interested in seeing.

Joel: Have you heard about that job yet at the hospital?

Kobar: I woke up and found a dear john email in my in-box. Looks like I'll be bagging groceries for the rest of my life.

Joel: Bummer

DEAR JOHN 

Saying "Dear John" singnifies your a bitch who would leave John for litterally no reason, when you could have just explained your situation, leaving both you and "John" separate from the one you love for the rest of your lives.

Dear John, Im a fucking stupid bitch.
