I’m not a religious person, but I never intend to hurt and kill anyone. This guy I knew for a few months told me one day that he had two women terminate their pregnancies.

I sometimes fantasized about other men. He looked at porn online. In our late 30’s, we had sex once a month on average for the last five years of our union. During the almost twenty years we were together, I was sexually satisfied fewer times than I can count on my fingers.

Aftermath: He blurted out, “You’re not The One.” We’re now divorced.

We were having dinner at a restaurant the night my sister was flying in for an internship. He asked me what airline she was flying, and I replied, AA. He joked, “Well it’s probably going to fly into a building then.” I stared at him and bursted out into tears because I hadn’t heard back from her yet, and even the thought of that happening scared the shit out of me.

Aftermath: He apologized for upsetting me, but not for the joke. He said I need to get a sense of humor.

She told me I loaded the dish washer wrong and was going to have to re-teach me everything my mother had ever taught me.

I knew it was over when every conversation with him was via text message—never a phone call. He lived about 2 or 3 hours away and that was all I got from him after 2 in-person dates. He said I was perfect, wonderful etc. but the distance was too much for him to handle…and it apparently was too much for him to pick up the phone and speak.
—Shannon
Aftermath: It didn’t last more than a month or so after our first date. I tried to get him to call and he blew up at me via text message…
