Prime Minister Matti Vanhanen, dubbed Finland’s sexiest man, broke up by text message with the girlfriend he had met on the Internet, she said in a magazine interview.
"Matti dumped me in a text message, where he said ‘that’s it,’" Susan Kuronen told the magazine Me Naiset (Us Women) in an interview published on Friday.
Her relationship with Vanhanen, a divorced 51-year-old father of two, ended a few weeks ago, but continues to make headlines as Susan, 36, pours her heart out in local media.
Vanhanen, who declines to comment on the relationship, was cited as Finland’s sexiest man by French President Jacques Chirac earlier this year, when Finnish tabloids were running daily front-page details of the romance.
Finland is home to mobile phone giant Nokia and its citizens are among the most avid users of the Internet.

I love news like this; it just shows us how pervasive technology is in our lives. I don’t blame the man for doing it via text message; I mean what’s the point in setting up a rendezvous with a person you don’t really want to be with, just to tell them you don’t want to be with them anymore?
This man is officially a role model for our species. Brevity is key, as well as efficiency. This is why I want to go to Northern Europe. If the general populous is like this I can only imagine how advanced they are as a society.
I am not poking fun, or making sarcastic remarks, I am very serious.
