That made you think - what a knob! And that you are well rid of them!

lighthearted thread -

I’ll go first -

Recently my ex changed his profile picture to this wanky AI generated image of him in the middle with a halo and two angels either side… he actually gave himself a halo 🤣 What a knobhead! Like he was Jesus 😳(He was a massive narcissist. My ex. Not Jesus)

There's enough differences in your post that I know it's not the same situation and we're not related, but my dad did something very similar (it was a registry office wedding with only immediate family invited, but he was still planning it all when he and Mum weren't divorced and it came pretty close to the wire).

Wow - strange to think there are several like this.

It was definitely a church wedding - Methodist IIRC

After not hearing from him for months he sent me a picture of his new baby .... I can't have children.

Oh God. That's not wanky. That's straightforward awful. Sociopathic behaviour.

Didn’t change the login on his company account package so I was able to see just how quickly he was dating … in the same places we used to go to … it was weeks. We’d been together almost a decade and I was apparently the love of his life 😂 I enjoyed asking him to change the password as I couldn’t resist looking at all the places he was ‘entertaining’. 😑

Not going to see his mother (who thought the sun shone out of him) when she was dying and saying he couldn't go to her funeral because they would be on holiday. I assumed they were going somewhere like Greece but they were going to Devon.

Not my ex, but my best mates ex posted a poem (yes, an actual poem) he’d written about his wife’s “heart of stone” leading to their divorce. His emotional affair (after years of other incredibly toxic bullshit) apparently had nothing to do it with it.

@PenelopePinkerton Think you’re on the wrong thread 😂

That's like on Amazon when they foward customers questions to previous buyers and you get things like "I don't know, I haven't used it yet" in the answers. 😂

Idontknownowwhat · 04/06/2026 19:08

Hard to narrow down. Lots of wanky type behaviour

TaterTots68 · 04/06/2026 19:17

So many, many wanky things. Told me my sister tried it on with him. She would have been 18 (10 years younger than him) and drop dead gorgeous and wouldn't have pissed on him if he was on fire. He wasn't impressed when I laughed in his face.
Had a (really shit) tattoo that's apparently a portrait of DD - despite him being a terrible father who has seen her less than 10 times in 26 years.
Phoned me on the ward at 11pm after I'd had DD to make sure I wasn't getting off with any male staff (because I'd obviously be really up for it after having my vagina sewn back together).
I could go on

Justthethingsthatyoudointhisgarden · 04/06/2026 19:17

Mine now has long hair, a long goaty beard and walks around shoeless. Looks like a right twat given he's mid 50s. He's a nasty little narcissistic emotional abuser pretending to be new age. He's just fucked up yet another relationship. I, in the other hand, am happily married to a lovely man. Karma.

BillieWiper · 04/06/2026 19:17

I just remembered this one and it's the cringest thing I've ever seen anyone do.

This was more of a Fwb/mate. One of those types who pretended he was a rock star. He had a mate who was much younger and thinner and used to borrow his clothes and stretch them and look preposterous. He was always posing in the mirror like knob.

Anyway, me, him and this friend went on a trip to a city abroad. It was the times when we used disposable cameras. I took loads of pics and eagerly awaited looking at them once I collected them from boots.

This mate acted a bit weird about the photos, he was really vain so I expected him to be desperate to see them. But instead he tried to avoid even looking.

The day I got them printed I left them out and went to the shop. Didn't think much more of it until I got the photos out again to have another look.

I realised that this guy has gone through the whole set, and on each one of him, he'd drawn over his bald spot with a fucking biro??! It was so obvious I nearly cried with embarrassment on his behalf.

I hadn't the heart to even say anything to him about it. 🤣🤣🤣

TheNarcissistsEx · 04/06/2026 19:19

Lighthearted? Get a load of space/nasa themed tattoos on one arm when he has no connection to space/engineering/nasa, and a huge king of hearts on the other. I saw them and immediately wanted to laugh at the absurdity/irony.

On a more serious note; Continuously centre every new girlfriend and make his children feel unimportant. Each time they are ‘The One’ and ‘it’s different this time’. He’s currently engaged to someone he works with that he’s known less than 6 months, and is all but estranged from his own children because they questioned how fast he was moving, so he’s playing Super Dad with her kids and not having any contact with his actual kids.

Fuckwit.

Kevinbaconsrealwife · 03/06/2026 15:35

Fucking superb !!I actually squealed laughing at this x

Well last week he had a brand new iPad he’d bought for his gf delivered to my house on the same day he’d yet again not paid maintenance as he ‘couldn’t afford it’ . The iPad was to get onto his gfs good books after she’d recently found out he’d been seeing 3 other women during their 2 year relationship .

To her absolute credit the gf sold the iPad the following day and paid me the balance maintenance I was owed .

OMG!!! Did they just not bother to ever pick up the baby? You must be a living saint.

Not remotely saintly. He's a genuinely lovely kid - well, man now.

So when I found out I'd been dumped on I called the police. Social Services visited me (several times) and asked could he remain in situ until they spoke to the parents. I said yes because it felt right that he was with his half-brothers and, frankly, he was no trouble. To cut a long story short, they'd been dumping him with whoever would have him, there were accusations of neglect (all this came out in Child Protection meetings). They split up whilst all this was going on, she got sectioned, he refused to step up and my short-term foster became a long-term.

That is horrific. What a vile nasty excuse for a human he is. I’m so sorry @Isometimeswonder

Drop my 11yr daughter off and leave her outside the house in January without a house key knowing I was not home and an hour away, so he could go to the gym.

WTAF!!!

HelenaWaiting · 04/06/2026 09:22

Left me to bring up to kids alone for another woman he swore he wasn't having an affair with. Six months later, she gave birth. Fast forward two years he dropped the kids off after an access visit and also handed over his two year old saying "Watch the baby for half an hour will you? I have an errand to run".

Four hours later I found out that he and new missus had gone on holiday to Mauritius for three weeks. I still have "the baby". He's 22 now and adorable.

You absolute superstar and totally wonderful human !! Xx

Breathes in and out...... repeatedly 🙈

Lardybumbum · 04/06/2026 19:47

I went on a few dates with a guy when I was 30 and he was 31. I should’ve bailed when he took me to McDonald’s on our first date but that wasn’t the wankiest thing. He sent me an unsolicited photo of his micro penis despite us never getting to the intimate stage of a relationship so I politely told him we wouldn’t go any further, then he panicked and got a mutual acquaintance to phone pretending to be police threatening me, if I dared tell anyone that he had a micro penis I’d be arrested. When I laughed at that statement, he paid someone who he did end up dating to write on our local pub walls that he was a great shag - again because he was worried I’d tell everyone about his micro penis. I never mentioned his penis to anyone . I was embarrassed for him reacting the way he did to sending his unsolicited dick pick but I also have to wonder about the women he persuaded to do his bidding afterwards as he wasn’t good looking and didn’t have a nice personality.

I've gone from laughter, to cheering, to sighing reading this thread 😂😳😮

Namechangee11 · 04/06/2026 19:56

Mine became a spiritual healer and Reiki Master... Absolute cock end who didn't ever pay for his children, abused us whilst being all 'spiritual'... He also did a interview in the paper with a whole made up life..... Utterly bizarre.

ThePeppyOpalScroller · 03/06/2026 14:17

Took "his" lightbulbs when he moved out.

🤣🤣 he should have dome that while he still lived with you so you didn't have to see him 😅

ForeverTheOptomist · 04/06/2026 20:08

OK. Another knobhead/violent-physical-emotional-abuser/story.

Not long after I started divorce proceedings he was arrested. A couple of days later, after he'd been released, he came 'round as he wanted to take away the very expensive and brand newTV that he's recently bought. He dropped it going down the front steps and damaged it.

Total, Utter, Absolute JOY. This made me very happy!

We (myself and the children) were left with appliances from the early 1990s. Did we care? Nope!

Get his mam to do his ironing (she used to let herself into his flat to do it while he was at work). Prick. I mean that's not the wankiest but it's the one that makes me think WHAT A LOSER the most 😁

Being a male, I would take full advantage of that. Most blokes would.
