Worst Human being you've ever known?

After life saving surgery at the start of the year I've been doing some soul searching and re-evaluating a lot in my life, and looking back it astonishes me that I put up with some truly awful people for so long, even when I knew what complete and utter unrepentant shits they were, so, can I ask, who is the worst Human being you have ever known and why?

My ex. Emotionally, financially and physically abused me.

Left him 12 years ago and cut all contact for my safety. Haven't seen him for 12 years. A mutual school friend posted photos of his wedding and I saw my alongside his very young, very beautiful girlfriend or wife.

I'm devastated he gets to move on and live a normal life but deep down I know he will abuse her. I hope she's safe.

A woman who is friendless, single, child less who is judgmental, over bearing, grossly obese, lazy, is shit at her job, worthless as an individual and is not worth giving the time of day to at all. I hate her.

I'm pretty lucky, reading some of these stories.

However, this week, my neighbours gardener threatened to stab me and told me "this is Germany, you have no rights here" (I'm English) because I asked her not to hack my plants inside my garden that are against a boundary wall.

I doubt she's evil but she does seem to be very mentally ill. She's become obsessed with the 30 metre boundary wall. These are big detached properties and don't connect except for this strip. She has shouted about this in the past and said she needs to speak to the owner of the house. I think she thinks I'm renting or squatting here. She also seems to think she's in a relationship with the single, elderly man she works for. Like she said, "it is our wall, not yours" and she screamed at me that I was not allowed to say his name.

It's very strange so I have cut my plants very low and will hope she stays away. I dont even want to discuss it with the elderly neighbour because he has said some funny things before about Germany being "overrun" and that Europe is no place for the white man anymore. Like I say, despite her outrageous behaviour, it seems to be born out of mental illness so I will bide my time. I will have no problem calling the police next time she jabs at my face with shears. It's very sad. I just want a quiet life and I know that these types will ruin my life given half a chance.

Awful sociopath boss. She is the coldest person I've ever seen in my life. Absolutely ruthless

Probably a girl at university - she had this massive drunken rant at me about how much she hated me in front of a bunch of people (I had literally done nothing to her except to exist at the periphery of her social sphere) and I was felt so humiliated by it at the time, but then afterwards lots of people told me they thought she was awful and if you mentioned her name everyone was like 'Oh God, her'

She was just one of those cynical bullies who think everyone who isn't as negative as they are is an idiot and I guess attracts a certain crowd who stick with them because it makes them feel special that the cynical bully doesn't apparently hate them.

ILs have some friends DH really hates - among other things, one of them and her siblings put their mum in a old folks' home very much against her will and then divided up and sold a load of her stuff to collect the money themselves and were proud of themselves for not arguing about it.

@IMNOTSHOUTING

Didn't know them well but a friend's DC was very very intoTennis and played at a fairly competitive level (althoughstill unlikely any of these kids are going to win Wimbledon). There was a parent who would try to put off other children by shouting derragotory remarks at them (e.g. 'don't worry Harry this one can't hit) or couching loudly when they were trying to serve. I didn't believe it until I saw it for myself at a match.
That could so easily be my BIL.

Wasn't in Surrey, was it?

MarshmallowAra · 05/06/2021 19:53

shout at the two year olds, shame them for pooing their nappies

Every now and again I drive past the nursery in the summer holidays and see her sweating in the nursery and I’m
Sorry to say it but I inwardly smirk!

Have you reported her to the education authority or whoever is responsible for nurseries in your area for being abusive towards small children??!!

PiccalilliChilli · 05/06/2021 19:54

The manager who, when I refused to attend a meeting with her whilst on a well-note for severe depression, unless accompanied by a union rep, accused me of assault and nearly got me fired.

My ex partner and father of my child. Utter waste of space. Drugs, drink and gambling problem. Remember him refusing to take some of our old stuff to the charity shop and saying ‘charity begins at home’ and putting it all in the bin. Refused to leave the house we bought together when we split meaning that me and our 18 month old had to move out to live with my parents. Refused to then pay the mortgage so the house got repossessed. Threatened someone with a knife which meant I didn’t feel him safe to be around our child for about two years. Now only sees our child when she asks him to see him, never once taken her to the shop to choose a Mother’s Day present or birthday or Christmas present for me. Said vile things about my very elderly grandad. Absolutely abhorrent human. The best thing is that since I left him I went off to uni, qualified as a solicitor and now earn plenty of money to support our family. Which is a good job because he pays £29 a month child support after refusing to get a job for the last 12 years

CokeDrinker · 05/06/2021 20:03

The bully in year 10 who kicked me really hard in the groin area and left my pubic bone feeling very sore and bruised. Am surprised it wasn't broken. Saw someone with his name mentioned on a facebook news article for cruelty to and killing a cat. Can't be sure it was him, but it would not surprise me if it was him.

Goingdriving · 05/06/2021 20:07

I met some really terrible people in the course of my work. But the worst was a man
I learned (from his victims) used to pick up girls and ram broken glass inside them. He was never charged and remained part of a fairly high social set.

Youarenothere · 05/06/2021 20:15

Friends ex who used to routinely beat the shit out of her. He was pathetic really.

Toomuchtooyoung01 · 05/06/2021 20:17

I’ve known lots of dirtbags unfortunately. One that stands out was a boy I went out with as a teenager. We dated, all fine, until his mates started taking the piss out of him because we weren’t having sex (we were 15). Around the same time some girls in our “friendship group”’had been sleeping around and I think looking back regretted it and then me not having done so made me a target. They promised the ex a “good time” to get at me. He dropped me like a hot potato and then looked like a bit of a prat when he never got anywhere with these girls. All quite upsetting for 15yr old me but what followed was just so horrible, and there was just no reason for it. Every time he saw me at a party etc he would shout abuse at me, try and physically push me out of houses, he even once pushed me to the ground in a park and spat at me. Not once did anyone ever tell him to leave me alone, it was always just accepted that he pushed me around and it was funny. He was twice the size of me and I had never been anything but kind to him. He was so bloody awful for so long and it really did set me on a bit of a path of then seeking out “tough” boyfriends who I thought would be able to protect me from bullying like that.

A very close relative

Footloosefancyfree · 05/06/2021 20:28

My ex boss nothing but a disgusting pig. He was married and used his position of power on a Christmas do to try and ply me with alcohol on false pretenses and then tried it on with me, he was extremely pushy when I said no, tried to manipulate me into have sex with him trying to grab at me and tried putting his hands between my legs. When I told him no that I wouldn't go there he was bloody awful towards me singled me out tried to take the piss and was completely unprofessional. He didn't like rejection and
I became enemy number one. I felt he was abit of a predator and later found out he had been inappropriate to a younger work colleague.

headlock · 05/06/2021 20:30

@Charlize43 I agree. Management is a title give to so many who are incapable of good management. Just a power trip to so many.

Aposterhasnoname · 05/06/2021 20:31

My ex.

When DD had her accident the police were given his address, and went round to inform him, they couldn’t find mine (she’s an adult). DD was very badly hurt and calling for me, which the police told cunt features, and asked for my details. He refused to give them any details that would help them find, even my name (very unusual surname). He claimed he “couldn’t remember” also “forgot” DDs best friend who lived next door, and the fact that he had another daughter who knew me. The police said later he was so unhelpful as to be obstructive. It took eight hours to find me. Eight hours while my poor terrified daughter was calling for me.

What a Twat I hear you say. Pah! He’d barely started.

So the police finally get a phone number for my DH, and ring him. They do not beat around the bush. DD was badly hurt and the next 24 hours are crucial. Naturally, we drop everything and fly to the hospital. About ten minutes after we arrive, the police turn up with cunt features in tow. He walks in with the fakest limp you’ve ever seen, in fact my DF actually said “why is cunt features walking like a monkey?” He takes one look at DD wired up in intensive care, screams and runs out (fake limp forgotten) then starts hyperventilating.

DDs nurse goes out to check on him. I’ll say that again. DDs intensive care nurse is now looking after cunt features who is faking an asthma attack!!

She tells him to go to A&E, he refuses. I’m in a heap in the corner which is fortunate for him because I think I’d be doing time right now if I’d been in any way capable of dealing with him. DH, BIL and DF “have a word” with him and by some miracle the asthma attack ends and the limp vanishes.

Eventually the hospital kick everyone out, I’m allowed to stay, but everyone else has to leave for the night. Because my parents are not twats, they took pity on ex, who’d been dumped by the police ten miles from home, and gave him a lift. In the car on the way back he joked that DD had a “smashing time” last night (it was a car crash)

This is long enough already so I won’t go on, just end by saying that DD got significant payout for her injuries, and he contacted her shortly after claiming to have three months to live and basically asking for money to pay for various medical aids etc. He’s still alive ten years later.

Footloosefancyfree · 05/06/2021 20:32

Echobelly this happened to my best friend at uni for no reason your first name doesn't begin with an N does it?

Aprilwasverywet · 05/06/2021 20:39

Started seeing someone years ago post divorce.. Before the actual divorce exils hired a PI to see if I had been seeing him whilst still with their ds... I wasn't so they had nothing 'on me'
What they did find was dirt on the new man. Who was a neighbour but we had never met..
They told me years later. What imo they should have told me back then. They could have prevented me and the dc being with a not suitable human being again imo.
He had previously owned a pet shop. It got into financial trouble.. He closed the door one Friday night and never went back....
Sad feel heartly broken for those poor animals and the people who found their bodies... He was a clever sly man who fooled a lot of people..

Rosewood017 · 05/06/2021 20:47

One was my ex boss. Short bald man who decided he hated me before meeting me because he hated the woman who hired me. She left and he took over. He would literally stand behind me and pull faces and mouth things to my colleague. I'd spin round and catch him. He was so nasty & condescending, blamed me for others mistakes. If I stood up for myself he would announce that I was a 'grass'.

My car at the time was an old Clio I had driven for 16 years. He made fun of it. I saved hard for a newer car and when I drove it in, he said 'how much did Daddy pay for that? Don't tell me you bought it - you're forgetting I know how much you earn'.

He even refused my pay increase I'd been promised by previous boss saying that it was a 'pay review' not a raise. I soon got a job elsewhere that paid way better and never looked back.

I think he must have been a very unhappy man.

From my school days from the first year a waste of humanity called "Jenny. Would pretend to befriend people then use the information to utterly humiliate them to others. She did it over and over, she messaged me around a decade a go try I g to show off about her "champagne lifestyle" and talking about her "simple" but kind hearted" children she was raising money for - nothing nice about her still then. She works for the BBC in radio now.

From work another "Jenny" she would insist on questioning HR on the "validity" of people's reasons for absence. Bullied everyone, called people going to counselling "whingers" maternity leave "skiving" so many batshit things She became obsessed with thinking our administrators parents were organising a forced marriage for her (and various ridiculous racial stereotypes - only non white member of the team) just on and on with undermi ing, micro managing. She thought she was a strong person, I suspect actually had lost a grip on reality at some point. She'd talked about physically assaulting her (chronically ill) husband, like it was nothing. I know where she lives, I sometimes fantasize about writing to her to let her family know the trash she was at work. But then I guess they know.

So I don't trust "Jennys" and refer to all hurtful people I encounter as Jenny.
