He blew his nose at the table by sticking both fingers up his nose with the tissue and diligently circling them around for about 30 seconds while continuing to talk.
—Thank God for the Salsa
Aftermath: In the car on the way back he wanted more, but I said I wasn’t looking for anything serious and that I’d enjoy hanging out again, since he really was a sweet tool.
I was out of town for the summer, and came back to see this guy and he dragged me to a band party (yes, he’s in a band), where he proceeded to ignore me the entire night.
—Little Miss Red
Aftermath: The next day I asked him if I was wasting my time, and he apologized 3 times. He said realized he wasn’t ready for a relationship and that he wasn’t over another girl.
I was out of town because my grandmother was dying. As the priest was giving her the Last Rites, he told me over the phone that it was unfair to him that I had been spending so much time with my family and no time with him over the previous four days. He also wanted to know when the funeral was scheduled to be, so he’d know when I’d be coming back home. She was still alive.
—Mel
Aftermath: I hung up on him after calling him selfish, and broke up with him very shortly thereafter.
After a few dates, we finally went to an actual restaurant (not fast food). He ordered the steak. Cut it with his knife and fork. Then proceeded to eat it with his hands. He also chugged a bottle of maple syrup in IHOP in front of my friends a week later.
—Gwen
Aftermath: We dated for maybe a month after that. Then he dumped me in Burger King (his favorite restaurant) for some girl he claimed was only his “friend”.
My ex lived 100 miles away, so we didn’t see each other often. After 6 months of dating, he dumped me via text message after I had spent the weekend with him and then texted him when I got home 2 hours later. To top it off, I bought him food and gas after driving 2 hours to see him.
Aftermath: We didn’t talk for a year, but a year ago he started texting me, saying I was the best sex he ever had and trying to get me to hook up. He apparently didn’t know I can see that he’s in a relationship on Facebook, as well as how much he says he “loves” her.
