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 of Yahoo! Personals 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."


Cheaters. Cheaters.
"My ex-husband came home from Iraq and rather than hug me, he hugged a co-worker. It took two days to get him to tell me the truth that it was over. My favorite line of all was "I don't know who I am anymore and I need to go find myself." Being a true Army wife I picked up the pieces, moved my daughter and I back to the States, and started our lives over in Virginia. To be honest it was the best gift he could have given me because now my life is much simpler being a single mom."

"After my ex sent me an email to break up with me, I received a text message from his new girlfriend stating I had only two weeks to find a new place to live, as she was moving in!"

"I fooled around on the most beautiful woman in the world. She did everything for me and I decided the grass was greener on the other side and wandered over to it. I talked to this guy every day for four to seven hours a day. Why does a guy talk to a guy four to seven hours every single day? Was I in love with this guy? It ruined my relationship. I put more energy into this stupid kid than my own girls or my fiancé.or family...hmmm, sad thing is that I still talk to him every day."

"A guy I was dating was at the movies making out with another girl. They were sitting right in front of me and my friends."

"I found out the guy I was seeing was also seeing someone else. The only reason he'd come around was when she'd get mad at him and withhold sex. I confronted him with a phone call at his work. When he hung up on me I called her. With one phone call I took out both supply lines. You should have heard his pathetic call to me: "Why'd ya do it? Why'd you go and ruin what I had with her?" I found out later she took him back long enough to marry him and then divorce him for the alimony check. He was ex number five."

"Well, we were supposed to go out one Friday. He called at 8 pm and told me he couldn't go because he fell down and hurt his back in the snow. My friend from work called me at 3 am that night and told me that she saw him with another woman dancing and kissing her on the neck. She took a picture of them with her phone. The next day he called me and said that he was in a lot of pain. I broke up with him and told him what I knew. Later that year he died of a heart attack. Before he died he wrote me an apology email. I forgave him at the cemetery."

"I found my 6'6" boyfriend making dates with guys behind my back. To make matters worse, he wanted to dress up as a woman and be dominated by a guy/dom. At NO time did this Harley-riding guy tell me he was gay. But looking back, it explains why he never wanted sex, was too tired to have sex, or just plain accused me of being oversexed."

"The 'romance' started in high school over 40 years ago. He was the 'bad boy' in the school. He claims that he was in love with me even back then, and I know I was crazy about him. We went on a total of one date during the high school years, which ended with a quick kiss. I moved to the 'big city,' he joined the army then returned to the farm. We both married others — two wives for him, two husbands for me. I returned home about 20 years after high school and we dated one more time. Then he dated another woman the very next night and went to bragging about it. I left shortly thereafter and went back to the city. Another 20 years passed and we got together again, and this time it lasted almost seven years, with him professing his undying love to me rather consistently. One day, with no prior warning whatsoever, he called and left a message on my answering machine stating, 'I've been doing a lot of thinking and I'm not coming back. OK?' Three days later he showed up at my granddaughter's graduation exercises with his 'new woman.' Never did find out why. Never will."

"Six months before my wedding, my fiancé calls me and tells me that he isn't sure what he wants. In the background I hear a woman's voice telling him that she loves him and then I hear him saying it back to her. Later, he sued me because I didn't give back the ring."

"It was my first year at college and I met a really handsome musician. We dated for about a month. Then I found out that he cheated on me with my best friend at the time."

The last things he said to me, "Your the biggest dramamama I've ever met, you have way to many fucking personalities and need to be medicated."

He hasn't spoke a word to me since. Today he came into my work to say hi to ex co-workers of his. He went as far as calling the people in my office srea from another phone in the building, so he wouldn't have to talk to me.

I still think about him

wow. Some of those are unreal.

Hm... My best story-- Oh, my ex-BF.

Well, I'm all for having best friends of the other sex. Hell, my best friend is a guy. So, when P. said that he was becoming good friends with this one girl, I was all "sure, whatever".

Turns out he was bonking her.

The worst part- or the part that I hated the most- is that he denied it to my FACE. He told me "no, she's just really clingy" even though my friends who lived in her dorm told me that they were seen holding hands (among other things) in the dorm. He also accidentally called MY dorm room, asking for HER. My roommate recognized his voice and blew up at him (I wasn't there). THEN, he tries to affect an English accent and claims that he was asking for Jenn, not Jann. My roommate tore him a new one- especially for his bad English accent. She used to live in England.

So, fine. He cheated on me. I confronted him. He FINALLY admitted it when we were eating at his favorite diner. Being a theater person, I burst into spectacular tears, screaming "How could you cheat on me? Why'd you f*ck her?!" The waitresses came running up to me and tried to console me and gave him the worst glares ever. Hope he never got good service there again.

Wait- it gets better. Since all three of us were in theater, I confirmed the rumors with the biggest loudmouth there. It spread like wildfire.

Then, I took everything that I ever got from him and marched over to his workplace and spread it over his computer and told his coworker that his ex was giving him back all the shit he ever gave me.

Oops-- forgot the sex game that he gave me. I gave that to my good guy friend (not the best friend) that the ex was incredibly jealous of, and HE gave it to the ex, saying "Erin never wants to see you ever again. Here's your perverted shit."

Wait- and then another guy friend goes to her dorm and knocks on her dorm room. Unknown to me, the roommate (who was her good friend) opens the door and immediately this guy friend berates her, telling her very loudly that she needs to "teach that slut of a roommate not to fuck with another girl's man". Should I mention that the halls echoed quite a bit?

I THINK that's it. It was a spectacular breakup, but we actually made up and became friends years later when we had to work on another play together.

i broke up with my first and only boyfriend in a message on MySpace (i know, that's horrible...but when i tried to do it over the phone he told me he was going to kill himself) he stills texts and IMs me everyday saying that i must have made some mistake. i broke up with him almost 2 months ago.
 
I honestly can't say that I have dramatic breakups.
(Sorry ladies)
I live life as it comes to me and I live with no regrets.
Not many people will agree with me.

Not my breakup story, but one of my best friend's:

Her husband left her on Christmas morning...their kids were 2 & 6 years old. When they went to wake their dad up in the morning to open presents, he was gone...closet empty. He was such a prick.

Dumped because of a bad haircut....two days before my birthday. Which is on Valentine's Day. Every Valentine's day sucks for me, I ALWAYS get dumped, and I'm given the "there's so much pressure with it being your birthday and v-day, I had to" excuse.

Whenever my friends complain about being alone on Valentine's day, I tell them to try being dumped/alone on every Valen-birthday every year. Yea, top that, haha! That always seems to cheer them up. What buttmunches!

Pretty much dumped in NYC when I was going to say goodbye to her. I had traveled a long time to see her, and she was going away for a while out of the USA to Europe (business-related.) She ignored me the entire time (we were with a few other friends), took off to something more important that night, and she has yet to contact me, despite me cussing her out via email (I tried calling), trying to be nice, and so on.

It still burns.

well i was cheated on 2 years ago... the day before Valentine's Day. Everyone knew except for me and no one would tell me what was going on. The next morning (yup.. V-Day) we were talking online and he's like i don't think this whole relationship thing is working for me. So i ask him why he feels that way and the response i get is "because i kind of cheated on you yesterday and I don't regret it"... asshole lol and he still expects us to be friends

It's not really a breakup, but last year I had my motorcycle stolen the day before.

I know it's a material possession. But it took away a freedom I had enjoyed. Plus it left me with a $4k debt, and another $4k that I had invested, gone.

Plus I've never had a good valentines day except in grade school when we got candy. That was, and still is to this day, the only good part about Valentines for me.

The whole relationship with my ex was apparently doomed from the start since he was really only "going out" with me (which only involved making out at movie theatres and then refusing to go out on a real date and telling everyone that we werent going out) because I was showing interest in him and apparently I had said that he didnt have a chance with my best friend.

I had never said that at all.

The breakup was messy because it involved some of my faults and then him not wanting ppl to find out that we had made out at a movie theatre (blah blah...suck it up dickhead...haha) so then he decides it would be better to be 'just friends' all the while emailing my best friend and telling her that I am this stuck up arrogant bitch who only talks about herself and he was only dating me out of pity and that he liked her the whole time. And then he got all pissed off at me for being sad about the breakup and complained to my friend about how I kept trying to win him over (meanwhile she has told him that she doesnt want a relationship with him and he keeps trying to win her over by telling her lies and whatever).

Somehow it was rumoured that me and my best friend were in this fight over him (I dunno who started it..probably him). When neither of us knew anything about it and we were both like "what?!"

It sucked. He basically ruined my high school life and since then things have been cold and "you are only an acquaintence to me and I dont ever want to be your friend" between me and him and me and almost every one of his friends that he told rumours to about me.
