Started off with a great Jubilee weekend holiday by borrowing my folks' car, going to the coast with a buddy and then surfing. (Yes, in England)
Yesterday, after work, I drove from London for 3 hours through shitty torrential rain to take the car back to them.
Got there at 10:30pm, caught the last train back. Dumped in the center of London at 1:30am (facing an 8am start later the same morning) Gave up on night buses (tube closes 12pm) and finally caught a taxi back.
Next day: You've got mail! Her: 'Hi, why didn't you call last night?'
Me: 'Actually I was on the Motorway in torrential rain. I took my folks car back to Solihull. Got back home at 2:30 am. Didn't think you appreciate a call at that time.'
Later, from her: 'Send me a nice long message please'
That's it, that's all her email says. No 'long message' from her. just a demand for attention. Was I not clear in my first reply? FUCK!
Maybe this will make it clear to her:
'I'd like nothing more than to be able to this, but I'm really busy right now. There's 2 of us doing 4 people's work and I'm really tired. I took my mum's car back at 7pm last night, drove through torrential rains in a shitty car and caught the last train back which dumped me in the center of London at 1:30 am. I only got home at 2:30am. Unfortunately, aside from all my griping, I'm not in a state to write much of interest as all that's keeping me going is a 4:30pm hometime and the promise of a soft bed. Hope you can understand. Pete.'
I'm just dying to see how she takes that. I think I'm close to the final chapter in this long distance relationship.
Thing is, do I care? (Hint: I already know the answer to this one.)

Oh yay:
'F**K off - don't take your tiredness and irritability out on me!'
And my reply: 'I knew you'd read that wrong.
I just wanted to explain why I couldn't ok? You asked me for a long message and I can't deliver, all right? If you'd read what I said instead of what you think I said, you'd see exactly that.
Honestly, I'm knackered and I just don't have the time to do this right now. I told you earlier where I was last night and when I got home. If you can't understand that then I'm afraid I can't help you.
Pete.'

If she responds again to tell you that you're wrong, tell that cunt to eat shit.

Ok, so I'm not the only one that thinks I didn't say anything to elicit such a reply from her.
It's the end of my work day now and I can look forward on catching up on my sleep. (It's cheap and oh, so good!
The only thing that still worries me about this whole issue, is that right now, because of this, I want her to go away. I don't have any reason to go to Cardiff (WALES), so there's no chance of accidentally seeing her again. No hassle there. Problem is, as all us guys know, if I ignore her and don't call her tonight or send her an email (Don't worry I won't) she'll call me. When guys treat girls like shit, they ALWAYS go back to them. Thing is I don't want that. And the more I act like a cunt, the more she'll pester me. Isn't it ironic?
Shit, being involved in a land war in Asia would be far easier to deal with than long distance relationships. That fucking Sicillian had it wrong. Where's that friggin eject button?

When she calls, don't answer.
If someone else does, hang up on her.
Don't reply to her e-mails.
You need to get the point across.

Assuming you told her what your plans were for the weekend, she's being needy. If I want a long email, I write a long email - not just a "write me lots of goop - show me some love" The way she worded her first response makes it sound like you owe her something.
Your first reply didn't contain much affection. Bad sign for the relationship - but since you say that it's in the final stages .... I don't mean to say that you should be all apologetic, but at least a "sure, I'll write you later when things settle down a bit" The first sentence was good - she should be a bit more understanding! You were tired, but I didn't pick up any "irritability" from you.
Maybe she's just having a really really #*$*@$ bad day and was hoping you'd be there (in whatever way) for her? Let things calm down for the next day or so and see what happens. Everyone gets unwanted/selfish outbursts at times.
If you really really really don't want to have anything to do with her, do what the others recommend ... though not the poisoning part ...
