I got home from school one evening and left my bag inside my car, just for a minute. I passed an “out of place” stranger while walking into my apartment. He said hello, so did I. When I got back to my car, someone had smashed the window, stolen my bag and wallet. I called to tell my boyfriend what had happened–that I was scared because I suspected it was that stranger who knew what I looked like and where I lived. The boyfriend’s response: “I’m doing the dishes.”

Aftermath: I stayed with him for at least another year and a half knowing each day I didn’t love him. Why, I really don’t know. It was awful and devoid of passion, love and even friendship. I don’t care if I ever see him again!

It was a very long distance relationship. He kept telling me how great my Christmas present was going to be, how it was expensive and how he could barely keep it a secret. Eventually, he just couldn’t hold it in . . . “I’m flying my mom down to see where I’m going to be living with you.”

Aftermath: He brought his mom and local Mexican food gave her diarrhea in my 1 bedroom / 1 bath apartment. Then he tells me he’s too afraid to move when we had planned.

Two days after my best guy friend passed away, my boyfriend said, “Now I probably won’t feel jealous anymore.”

—Jessica

Aftermath: “Probably?” He’s dead, why would he feel jealous of a dead person??? A week after that he got mad at me for continuing to mourn the loss of my friend and said that I should be over it by now. Then he proceeded to call my mom and tell her he was worried I was going to hurt myself. WHAT THE HELL!?!?! I stopped talking to him that night and haven’t since. He was an ass anyway…

My fiancé and I had a serious fight about Michael Jordan’s divorce. I kept trying to end it by saying, “We don’t even know these people!”

—Ronell

Aftermath: A few months later, she broke off the engagement over the phone and she couldn’t give me a reason why. We never spoke again.

It was over when he flipped out that I was traveling abroad to build homes with Habitat for Humanity. He told me the trip “stressed him out” and he didn’t have time to worry about me.

—Em

Aftermath: I went on the trip anyway, had an amazing time and dumped him two days after returning. He’s still a self-centered douche.
