Whats The Worst Way You've Been Dumped

[IncandescentSilver]

I've been thinking my recent dumping is just about one of the worst out there (cheated on during lockdown when we couldn't see each other, 3 minute phone call to tell me "Sorry but I'm seeing someone else now", 2 months later I had to ask for my stuff back and he refused to meet up but dumped it on my doorstep when he knew I'd be out, and today, 2 1/2 months later, has blocked me on WhatsApp, which I hardly ever use, even though I haven't contacted him since asking for my stuff back weeks ago - it seems to be in response to my changing my profile photo on there to a very inoffensive head and shoulders shot, suitable for work contacts.

It was actually so bad its cheering me up to process it by thinking about it - his behaviour seems so at odds to what type of person I thought he was, its almost funny, in a black comedy sort of way.

My friends partner of 3 years left after she went to visit her mum in another city for the weekend. She came home to find all his stuff gone and he cleaned out the fridge. Blocked her on everything and then 6months later he wanted to meet up for sex, after her initial wtf he told her they were never in a real relationship so what's the problem. They started sleeping together for 4 months after that but he took off again and that was the end of it.

A man I was in a serious heart with dumped me whilst I was in hospital.

Grr relationship not "heart"

My husband of 18 years dumped me over the phone. He'd been working overseas and I'd been holding down the fort at home (Australia), working full time, studying, and looking after our 2 children. We had what I thought was a happy marriage.
A few days after that phone call, he walked off the job, followed a woman around China for 10 days (and spent $8000 in the process), and then got a job in NZ. He dropped in to pick up his things a few months later.
He hasnt seen his kids for 12 months. Says he resented the obligations of being a husband and father.

We had been together for about 6 months (we worked together so knew each other for over a year) I had been on a three week mountaineering trip of a lifetime.
Got back a day earlier than planned, to my flat (he had a key and was staying there whilst I was away as still lived with his DP) and saw a girls make up bag and hair accessories on the bed side table.

He didn't stay very long when he came back that evening, and i threw everything that didn't belong to me in the bin.

@Wandling wow, tough, he resented the obligations of being 50% responsible so he left you with 100% of the responsibility!

Mine's very similar to so many.

First big love, in a LDR for 3 years whilst we were at Uni. When we finished uni, the plan was for me to move to the country he was in, because I can always get work anywhere (physio).

I'd got a job, was all ready to move in with him in a week's time.

We went to the pub with my sister and some friends, after Prince Andrew's wedding to Sarah Ferguson, and after about an hour, he said, 'Thank you for a wonderful time, but I'm afraid we are over. I've moved back here for good, sorry, I didn't know how to tell you. Bye'

He was literally standing up and walking away as he said it. We were all gobsmacked - there had been non clue at all that he had been unhappy, or that the relationship had changed at all. And I was stuck having to find accommodation in a country I didn't live in or have any ties to (other than him) - in a week!

I managed it, and it turned out I had a great time there. But what a spineless little shit......

Not me but a friend of my mum’s years ago...

She met the love of her life, he appeared to be an absolutely charming lovely man. He proposed with a huge and very expensive ring. Her parents bought them a house. Everyone was very happy and delighted.

Several months later, friend and her mother were out shopping for her wedding dress. It was an all day thing as they were visiting various shops, having a lovely champagne lunch etc etc. They came home to find the house competely empty. Absolutely stripped bare right down to light bulbs! Anything not nailed down was taken.

The only thing left was a note asking for the ring back and instructions to have it couriered (at her expense no less!) to his parents house.

To this day she has no idea where he fucked off to or where or why. She spoke to his parents and they appeared as clueless as her (though she suspects they knew where he was).

She never gave the ring back- she told his parents she would be selling it and if he wanted to make a fight out of it she’d report him for theft of all the furniture. She sold it and got in the region of 10k . Funnily enough he never did raise his head again to chase the return of the ring.

Email.

Told “can I have that discount voucher to use for my trip to X country? I want to use it with my girlfriend when I go to meet her at Christmas.

He had his arm around me as he said it. It was October. He had been chatting to this girl online overseas that he’d met once through work and had decided to make a go of it and had somehow in the weeks previous, in his head at least she had taken my place and he’d never told me. He was still initiating dates, being physical etc and we were with each other every day.

I thought I was his girlfriend and he’d been hinting about proposing round about the same time. It was awful as I was really in love with him and had never loved anyone that way (never have since either).

Changed his relationship status on Facebook. We had had an argument on the Friday. This was on the Saturday. When I questioned it he said “you knew it was coming” ...

Another one met me in a park, was being really weird and off with me for no reason. I was getting frustrated as I knew he was trying to tell me something. I left to go to work and he text me to say he couldn’t tell me to my face.

Cowards.

I went home for the easter holidays (was at uni) and when I got back, my fiancé who I’d been living with for six years informed me he’d started seeing someone else. Luckily I’d just had my student loan payment so was able to put a deposit on a flat and move within a week. It was horrendous and 13 years on I still haven’t fully got over it.

These are awful! Mine seems pretty tame but I was devastated at the time, bit of a joke between my friends now though..

Bf of 18 months comes round as normal friday and saturday, have a chilled out day doing normal coupley things, sunday he was going to a gig with some friends and friends of those friends. Said he didn't really want to go as he didn't know the other people.
Leaves on Sunday, texts me throughout the day as normal (apart from not replying to my good night text for the first time, just thought his phone probably died) chatted as normal on Monday, seemed a bit quiet Tuesday so ask him what's up, get a text through to say "something had happened" with one of the friends of friends and he was leaving me to be with her! He'd known her for one day!
This was last year and I haven't seen or heard from him since, aside from him quietly posting a few of my things through the door - he could see I was in but was too cowardly to knock...
What a prince!

I was in my early 20's and had been with my then boyfriend for 18 months. Our relationship had always been volatile but I think we saw it as passionate at the time.

Anyway, we moved in together and things seemed to be going well.

He surprised me by taking me away for a weekend. Great! Except he had taken me away to dump me - which he did, in the middle of a busy restaurant. We then had to stay the night in the same hotel room.
Then, he drove me straight back to my mum's house rather than "home" because he had already arranged for his parents to clear out our house of my stuff. Even down to my dirty underwear in the laundry basket.

The utter humiliation. And the kicker? He dumped me because he had been cheating on me. The ow also lived with her partner but he had found out about them and had kicked her out of their home and so she needed somewhere to live....

I still cringe when I think about his Mum packing up my dirty kecks

Many years ago I was dating a man who I knew wasn't Mr Right but we were having a pleasant time nonetheless. That was until he dumped me immediately after sex one day, and when I say immediately I mean just a few moments after he'd come! He just got out of bed and started to get dressed, and when I asked what he was doing he said, "I won't be round again". When I asked why he hadn't dumped me before he'd just fucked me he said "Oh, I find women are calmer after sex", then off he went. I kid you not . I was so stunned, upset, and mortified I couldn't react until he'd gone, after which I burst into tears. A few years later I bumped into him and he put his behaviour down to the fact he was suffering from depression at the time. What a load of BS

We went to a gig together, and weren't really feeling one of the support bands so went for a sit down at a table by the bar. He popped to the toilet, and still hadn't returned after about 20 minutes. I was a bit worried about him in case he'd had a bit too much to drink and had started feeling unwell, so I asked a stranger standing outside the gents to go inside and check that there wasn't anyone throwing up in there. He came out looking really embarrassed, had obviously figured out what was going on, and told me there was no one in the gents. I tried to get hold of him that night but couldn't, and never saw him again! Actually, that's a lie, I saw him at a festival a year or two later with his new squeeze, but kept my distance and I don't think he saw me.
