beautiful letdown

Commonly known as a CD by Switchfoot, a "beautiful letdown" is a breakup that happens in a way where one of the two is not fully aware of it. A prime example is "taking a break" from the relationship.

"She said we were taking a break...three months later I found out that it was permanent...what a beautiful letdown.."

Facebook letdown

When you meet a girl or guy in person then proceed to add them on facebook and realize they are not as attractive as initially perceived upon first impression. Often, this first meeting will take place while intoxicated or in a dark place, such as a bar. Initial feelings of excitement and anticipation build as you have met a potential new love interest, only to be "letdown" while scouring countless facebook pictures of your so-thought object of desire.

"Dude, did you see that smoking hot chick I met at Tin Roof last night? I've been texting her all day" - "Hold on. She just accepted my friend request...wait..is that her? No way that's her. Aww man, yep, that's her, wow...dang it! What a Facebook letdown."

Footwear Letdown

When a woman wears her red shoes and it makes you wet and then she leaves you to go have e-sex with her boyfriend.

She always leaves for sex...what a footwear letdown.

movie scene letdown

When, even for a split second, you begin to think that something amazing or romantic is about to happen, just like in the movies, then you realize that nothing of the sort is going down. After the realization that such a notion is silly and pathetic, you try not to look disappointed, mostly because you don't want to explain your stupid fantasy to those around you, because it's embarrassing.

When the buzzer rang at the apartment today, I thought for a second that perhaps the man of my dreams was coming to confess his love for me, but when I buzzed the mystery guest in, it was just a few guys delivering a package for my roommate. Epic movie scene letdown.

The Letdown

someone who tries over and over again but can never succeed, it's just not in the cards for them. they will always fail to fulfill the expectations of others, and will constantly create continual disappoint throughout their lifetime. they are undependable and wreak of failure.

When you meet someone on social media, etc. and you think they are interesting or hot. Then when you meet them in person, they are not all you thought they were.

Guy 2: damn another case of online letdown

Guy 1: yeah...
