Moved to a new city with her, and found out she was doing drugs. I was on my way home and she was leaving with her ex-boyfriend.

Aftermath: Last time I heard, she was missing all her teeth and can’t manage to stay out of jail beacause of Meth.

I knew it was over when I gave him a simple gift and card for Valentine’s (our first) and he gave me nothing. He has done nothing to make up for it.

—CSD

Aftermath: I’m done wasting my time on someone who doesn’t want to make an effort.

I knew it was over after loaning her a new washer-dryer, a van and two cell phones, not to mention the thousands of dinners over six months, it was never enough. She always wanted more. She always tried to tell me how to live my life and raise my kids.

Aftermath: It was finally over after her son got scabies and she couldn’t even afford the doctor bill.. If you are almost 40 with no car, you don’t make good life choices.

It was so over when he started to pick up his own dog’s poo, but leave my dog’s poo where it was.

Aftermath: He’s single, in his late 40’s, and still living with his mother.

Woke at 2am to see a shadow at the window with a crowbar. Nudged him awake and whispered there was someone trying to break in. He screamed like a little girl and ran around to hide behind me. I was 5 months pregnant with our second daughter at the time.

—Barbara

Aftermath: Lost all respect. Divorced him. We both found more “manly” people to marry.
