Jon Kopaloff/FilmMagicOuch...this one may sound familiar for a lot of people who have had their hearts broken...
Brandi Glanville, a cast member on Bravo's The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and a mother of two, says a man she was dating ended their relationship and did so in a rather impersonal manner and for a very heartbreaking reason.
"My boyfriend just broke up with me via email because I said my kids will always be my first priority...NYC here I come," she tweeted on Saturday.
The 42-year-old reality star and former model shares two sons with ex-husband and actor Eddie Cibrian, who wed singer LeAnn Rimes in 2011. She did not name her now-ex-boyfriend by name.
Thanksgiving and the December holiday season are prime time for breakups, studies have shown.
Glanville has talked about her love life on Twitter before.

"When I first discovered the benefits of technology and social media, I used it to obsess over my husband, his future wife and our children throughout our breakup and divorce," she wrote. "Once I decided I was open to love again, I realized that technology is also a very powerful—and dangerous—tool."
"Gone is the time of the 'three-day rule.' #SoLastCentury. Today, it's rare to actually pick up the phone and call someone," she added. "Instead, we text, tweet, Facebook-message and whatever other social f--king media I choose not to know about. #WhatTheF--kIsLinkedIn?'
As for the email, that's almost as bad as one of these...
