These poor people fromAsk Redditwent through some harsh breakups.

3.Kisses me goodbye after I dropped him off to get his car.

Went to class, got home, and saw all of his stuff was gone.

January Nelson

Texted him, in mild panic, asking what was going on.

He blocked my number and changed his relationship status on Facebook to single a few days later.

We were together for 2.5 years and lived together for 2.

So yeah, I think ghosting is pretty shitty.

I refuse to do it to anyone.

4.My now ex-husband had his divorce lawyer call me at work to say he filed papers.

We had never discussed divorce and had a nice dinner the night before.

I was so stunned my boss had to drive me home.

5.This guy had his friend call my friend to break up for him.

Id have to say that was a pretty crappy way to break up.

He found out the hard way that his assumption was incorrect.

6.Well, the worst I had was ghosting.

After a several-month relationship.

When we had other dates and events planned.

This was a woman who had just finished her PhD and is now a professor at a top-tier university.

Shes now a doctor at one of the worlds most prestigious hospitals.

There is no correlation between academic/professional achievement and emotional maturity.

7.An ex-girlfriend of mine broke up with me over MSN Messenger.

After that she blocked me.

8.Dated this guy in college for a year.

I helped him pack and load up his car as I wasnt leaving until the next day.

We went to grab the last few items from his room and said goodbye, hugged, made out.

I gave him a blowjob with zero reciprocation.

As I was finishing swallowing, he decides to tell me that he is breaking up with me.

Ill never forget how used and worthless that made me feel.

9.Through text is the worst.

She couldnt do it in person.

It felt like she took the easy way out.

So basically confessing he was cheating on me without outright saying he cheated on me.

So he broke up with me for her.

At least karma got him because she said she wasnt interested and stopped talking to him.

Man fuck him though.

That deflates the romance pretty quickly.

I couldnt believe she had done it that way, although I was ready for it to be over.

She said she thought it would be the nicest way to do it… That one kind of hurt.

14.Emotional cheating without calling it that.

Hurt me pretty bad.

I just hang out with this person and dont tell you about it.

Whats the big deal?

This was a five year relationship mind you.

Fast forward a month later and I book another one.

I got on the bus, put in my headphones, and dozed off.

That, ladies and gentlemen, is the worst way to break up with someone.

16.I present this one from my exs playbook:

Break up with merightbefore Christmas.

Beg for me to get back with you two weeks later.

Reveal that you fucked THREE dudes while we were together the first time.

In as many days.

Tell me that its not a big deal.

17.The words you use are too big.

His mom was an English teacher and he was a college graduate.

The reality was he just wasnt in love with me anymore, if he ever had been.

I was pretty stunned at the time though.

Many years and many miles between then and now.

It was a good thing in the end.

18.Someone broke up with me over the phone when I was shopping for nice clothes for her grandfathers funeral.

(I didnt know the grandfather but I was going to be there for her.)

Two weeks later she is dating her ex again.

19.Story I heard from a friend.

A guy went to his girlfriends house on Valentines Day with presents and noticed another guys car outside.

When he knocked on the door the girls mum answered and told him he better leave.

I dont love you anymore, she said.

I loved her and we were planning on moving in together.

Found out about a week later she dumped me for a new acquaintance.

Id assume she cheated but I have no proof and honestly does it matter?

All her friends were as confused as I was.

21.My ex-fiance texted me, while I was living with his parents, that we were done.

Never saw or talked to him on the phone again after those last few text messages.

23.Live together for 2.5 years, get a hunch about his new friend.

Communicate your inVaLiD and IrraTiONaL feelings.

Come home to their bags packed because they couldnt handle the jEaLouSy.

And then receive a video of them on a date two days later.

See them holding hands 5 days after the break up.

After they told you, You have nothing to worry about.

Shes just a friend.

Work on your jealousy.

So they sat together the whole time.

Sympathy ended when she got back with him.

I joked when they went on vacation again hed do it again.

He did it again.

25.Girlfriend of 5 years wanted to move into a new house on the nicer side of town.

We looked and looked and found a place nearly twice as expensive but in our price range.

Also, she never sent me a penny for rent that year after the breakup.

Fun year that was.

26.Was working away in another country for a year and would come back for a week every 3-4 months.

I was bitter and heartbroken but fell on my feet and met the best girl ever a month later.

Her : Oh, hey, this is (his name), my boyfriend.

Me : Uhmm havent we been in a relationship for like a month now?

Her : Ugh I guess, but we clearly broke up yesterday evening.

We even kissed when I was leaving her place and she told me I love you.

I was so astounded I couldnt even be mad.

Forgot about her in a few weeks and moved on with my life.

28.My boyfriend broke up with me by texting me asking how my day was.

I said, Fine, how was yours?

He responded with: Great had a fantastic day with my girlfriend.

I was at work all day.

We had been together for 4 years, and been living together for 2…

He had been cheating on me, and decided to leave me for his mistress.

Not that Im bitter or anything.

Turns out she had been cheating on me with another guy and she just wanted to get her gifts.

After packing everything she saysoh yeah we are done Im seeing someone elseand left.

We were together for several years and engaged at that point but at least I got the ring back.
