Stories From Splitsville"Oh Man, Where to Start?"
When it comes to matters of the heart, each one of us has a story to tell. Sometimes it ends with a "Happily ever after." All too often, however, it can end with an abrupt and out-of-the-blue "The end." Recently we asked members to share their own personal stories of how the fat lady sung. And, boy, did they have some whoppers to tell.
OMG! What a Jerk!"An old boyfriend returned all of my stuff to me by putting it in a basket and then bringing it to me at my place of work. He entered singing and creating quite a stir, so that everyone would notice what was happening."
"He wrote me an email saying, 'Goodbye my friend.' Are you kidding me?! GOODBYE MY FRIEND?!!!"
"I noticed my boyfriend all of the sudden started telling me he loved me…constantly. Then a week later, he called me and was acting really strange. I kept asking him to come over and he wouldn't. Eventually he did, and told me he needed space. I thought I was in the Twilight Zone!!! He cried and told me it wasn't me...something to do with him having a child he didn't know about for two years. I was so hurt because I had never had anybody break up with me before. I guess there's a first for everything. He still calls sometimes and we have hooked up a few times. But I don't see him anymore. Sometimes I find that I still love him. What is this love thing all about?!"
"He broke up with me by text message on a cell phone."
"I had cancer of the esophagus and it required surgery. I was hospitalized for a month of recovery. They had to put a stomach tube in me just so I could be fed. When it was time for me to be released, my mom and dad came into my room. My mother was in tears. She told me she got a call from my wife and was asked not to bring me home because my wife said she couldn't deal with taking care of me. Because of that she was filing for a divorce."
"He broke up with me on MySpace."
My, What Bad Timing You Have"As I was preparing to go to my in-laws for Christmas, I told my ex-wife that I couldn't go and that I had met someone else."
"I had a stroke in 2000. My wife came to see me in the hospital with her attorney and said that she was filing for divorce. It was Christmas Eve."
"I was served with divorce papers on our wedding anniversary."
"I broke up with my ex on his birthday. We had a major fight and I left him at the gas station. I had the keys to the house and he was five miles away from home."
"It was our anniversary and I had just gotten off work and was ready to celebrate. When I came home she was sitting on the bed upset, so I asked what was wrong. She said that her ex-boyfriend had come home from Iraq and asked her to marry him and she said yes. Then I heard a horn out front and she left."
The Disappearing Act "We were in a club and she was drinking hard core. She left me on the dance floor, climbed up on the bar top, and did a two-song strip dance for the room. When she had shown everything and only had her thong left on, she jumped on some guy and left forever!"
"I was two months pregnant with our daughter when the guy I was living with for two years said he would be right back. I didn't see him again until our daughter was 12 years old."
"He did not show up for our anniversary dinner. He just sent flowers with a goodbye note."
"A week after meeting him he sent me an email saying that I was too clingy. The only thing I had done was to call his phone and leave a message to call me back. He never did, in fact."
"My fiancée and I had an argument on a Thursday. Friday, she had an argument with her parents. Her parents called me and asked if I had seen her. Monday, I got a call from her parents telling me that she came home. They also said that she had gone to North Carolina and married a complete stranger."
"I returned some library books and when I got back 15 minutes later she was gone. She had grabbed the baby, all the diapers, and a few clothes for the baby. She didn't even leave a note. Later on, she left a message saying she wanted to meet me and talk about things and gave me a place to meet her. She didn't show up. When I got home, she had cleared out all her clothes."
Delegating the Deed"This guy I was dating for a couple of months asked his mom to do it for him. She told me he didn't want to be with me anymore. Plus that he was seeing his next-door neighbor. Then she gave me a hug on his behalf. And all this was in front of my coworkers. It was so humiliating."
"At the time, an adult man, 31, who had been my boyfriend of seven years, having gone on an extended vacation, had his mother call me on the phone to let me know that he would be returning home with his new fiancé and the life that I had shared with him was over."
