We went out once. He Facebooked friended me that same day. I didn’t hear from him again for, oh, a month, so I thought it was safe to assume neither of us was particularly interested. I unfriended him. A day later, he refriended me and asked me why I unfriended him.

Aftermath: It was a non-starter. I haven’t responded to the friend request. I think it will stay that way.

He spent the majority of his half of the rent money on Transformers toys and Magic playing cards. One day, I came home from work and found my unemployed boyfriend (a grown man) on the living room floor with all his Transformers lined up perfectly, like a little army. He was playing with them.

Aftermath: Being a good sport at the time, I bought him Unicron, the “king” of all Transformers, for Christmas. It was the best day of his life!

We’d been dating for 4 years. Found out I was pregnant, he said he wasn’t ready for a baby. So I had it “taken care of.” He never called b4 or after my surgery. Week later on Christmas Day. He dumped me, I bought his family including him gifts. He kept stating things like “I hates us,” “I don’t see you in my future” and “You’re a great girl. You’ll get over this.” He said it as though I was sleeping around or we were dating for only 4 months.

Aftermath: He told me he want to be friends like Dawson and Joey from “Dawson’s Creek.” He went to Cuba the weekend before my birthday…and I got a call from Cuba saying, “Happy Birthday.” This happened this past December. The emotional and mental scarring is still fresh and I regret my decision everyday. I was going to dump him when I found out I was pregnant, but I thought we had a future and I didn’t want to ruin his or the future child’s.
