Maaaaaaaaaaan, delete that phone number, block your text and e-mail, and make all of your social media private right now if you really want to break up with her.

Why, I gotta do all that!!!!?????
Best friend patiently like he’s talking to a two year old:
The Ghost of the Past Want to Live Again — believe me, I know because I’ve been there. I also know that you won’t listen — because I didn’t, either.

womp
A lighthearted reaction upon receiving disappointing news of some sort. Usually something that isn't a particularly a big deal, esp. when it primarily affects someone else - sort of a mild schadenfreude. Sometimes doubled or tripled, and possibly said in a sing-songy voice for added comedic effect to imitate a muted trumpet, which is how the meme originated.
