Ever have a REALLY bad break-up?
One of my exes just tried to friend me on FB. I lived with this guy for a few years, and he slowly revealed himself to be super-anxious, not able to hold down a job for long, and just overall not ready for a relationship. I finally broke up with him and it was SO BAD - he went into absolute hysterics, threatened to kill himself, and was actually getting out razors. Two hours you could not pay me enough to repeat.
So yeah, won't be adding Psycho as a friend.
Any other horror stories?
Re: Ever have a REALLY bad break-up?
Luckily no. But just having them call and call and call to reconcile is my extent of a bad breakup. Actually, I think it was more annoying than anything.
Sorry to hear about the guy. Yep, definitely a smart idea to not add him as a friend in FB.
I've had some icky ones, but nothing compares to what one of my exes went through with his law school girlfriend.
After they broke up, she connived her way into his room by telling the doormen she had left something in there. While in his room, she slashed her wrists and dripped blood all over his laptop and his suits, then chopped the suits up with scissors.
This was after she lied and told him a) she was pregnant and b) she was HIV positive.
She was put in an institution, and his law school reimbursed the cost of replacing everything since she shouldn't have been let into his dorm room.
That is DISTURBING.
omfffff!!!
That is so scary! You can't even make that up, who's mind goes there? Blech!
Wow that law school girl was seriously disturbed!
My only story is from like 8th grade but here it is anyway. He threatened to kill himself then locked himself in my bathroom and refused to come out. He also passed me blood stained notes at school and told everyone we were still together for weeks after I dumped him. Oh I forgot, he brought a new girlfriend over to my house to tell me that they were having sex. Poor girl.
There are some really disturbing stories
Not really any bad breakups with boyfriends, but actually some friends like in elementary, middle school and high school. Sometimes I'm afraid to bring any possible drama or their craziness back into my life.
Holy hell. Did this guy ever date again?
ditto
holy hell, you can't make this siht up!
Ugh, yes.
The guy I was seeing came out on National TV before telling me.
I gained 20 lbs after that one.
YES!
I'd been dating him for almost 2 years. He had asked me to marry him and we were pretty serious. He had a high school girlfriend that was his first for everything and he told me at one point she had a really bad drug problem. He wanted to go "help her because he was the only person she wanted to talk to" I said absolutely not and then 2 weeks later she OD'd. On the day of her funeral, I went over there to drop a card off for him becase I felt really bad for him. Thinking he wouldn't be there I went in and he was there. Already home from the funeral. His tie and dress clothes were hanging over a chair like he had just gotten back.
A few months later, I found out he was cheating on me with some girl from his work and then I went on classmates.com and found his "DEAD Ex" I emailed her telling her that I really needed to talk to her if she was in fact his ex and to please call me. She did. So she was alive, married with 2 kids and living in Florida. Completely healthy... and had never tried any sort of drug in her life.
When I confronted him about this he told me that he couldn't believe I was that sick in the head that I would make something like that up. A$$hole
Her and I became pretty good friends after that and I gave her his phone number. (After I got over the trauma because it was very hard for me) Anyway she called him and when he answered she said "BOO" when he said who is this? she said "How does it feel to be contacted by the dead" LOL.
What?!
I have a similar to marsh..I will be seeing him in a few months. We are both in a mutual friends wedding. I haven't seen him since the break up:/
