I knew it was over when his wife called me to find out where she could send the divorce papers.

Aftermath: She and I are friends. Who knows where he is now?

I couldn’t believe I had found a guy who shared my appreciation of ABBA and Liza Minnelli…until he told me “I’m not straight, but don’t worry, I don’t actually want to sleep with guys.”

—Amy

Aftermath: He lost his beard that day. He still can’t understand why I won’t just look past his orientation.

He spent the night out at a “friend’s house” after ignoring my phone calls all day. He told me that he “didn’t think I’d care” that my live-in boyfriend “got drunk and passed out” at some random girl’s place.

Aftermath: We broke up a month later, got back together, then broke up six months later when he decided he’d rather sleep with his graduate assistant than me.

My boyfriend was a self-proclaimed “rapper” and a medical student. He only wrote me one song in our whole relationship. On top of the crappy lyrics of this song, half way through it, he described how he cheated on me. He then posted this song on Facebook.

—Leeann

Aftermath: It was over at that point. He said he hoped we would be friends, that our children could know each other. Why would I want my kids to know someone like that?

When I heard him snorting up in the bathroom. Later in the relationship, he got mad at me because I didn’t set up an appointment for him to start seeing a drug counselor. (He was driving freight trucks and sitting on his ass for hours waiting and doing nothing, but I was supposed to set up an appointment for him while I was at my office job. Yeah, right.)

Aftermath: It was way too long for me to realize he wasn’t going to give it up, but I am gladly away from that now.
