    He was too good for you. You did him a favor by saving him the trouble of getting rid of you.

    Interesting how in a purim thread, i used your screename as part of a reply – did i inspire you to open an account?

    3 minutes is abrupt; sometimes a guy’s abilities and learning personality come out later. It’s also not derech eretz and is extremely offensive to the other bochur/yungerman – especially if he’s been dumped before, which is likely based on what you’re aaying.

    You should have known it wasn’t a good fit after a minute. Why did you prolong the issue for an extended two more minutes?

    You seem to have commitment issues (probably from your upbringing)

    Seek professional mental help

    Learning mussar is vastly different from gemara, especially in certain circles where anything mussar/hashkofa oriented is looked at as being mysterious and “hecher”. If he’s from certain yeshivos, and you’re from…say, chaim berlin, it might explain it.

    The Chasan Sofer said that we should learn mussar and say viduy before gemora learning as Hashem says to the rashaim, why read my Torah at all.

    I’m not sure you dumped him. Maybe you couldn’t sit still for more than 3 minutes. Focus on improving your hasmadah

    @Reb Eliezer
    I only heard of the Chasam Sofer.

    “as Hashem says to the rashaim, why read my Torah at all.“

    I thought Hashem laments that the Jews should have stuck with the Torah as opposed to Hashem because it could bring them back

    The Chasan Sofer was niftar at 48 years old, acquiring the 48 kinyanim for the Torah, being a grandson of the Chasam Sofer, Rav Shmuel Ehrenfeld ztz’l named after the son in law of the Chasam Sofer, Rav David Tzvi Erherenfeld ztz’l marrying his daugther Hindel or an acronym of Chudushei Neched Sofer. He is the grandfather of my rebbi, Rav Shmuel Eherenfeld ztz’l, the Matersdorfer Rav. She explained that the tziporas hakromim says in Perek Shira מאין יבא עזרי. This is bird when killed and its oil is applied to the forehead helps against shikcha, forgetting but there is a better solution by learning 101 times, so מאין adds up to 101 which will protect it from getting killed. When the Chasan Sofer was learning, he held a candle and fell asleep. The gemora he learned caught fire and the Chasam Sofer came in a dream to the daughter, telling her to hurry because her son is in danger, They have the gemora to this very day.
