This wasn’t a hunting expedition, at least that’s what my husband told me when I agreed to go with him. We were in the truck when we spotted a deer about ten yards from the dirt road we were on. Before I knew it, my husband had gotten his gun out and shot the doe while still sitting in the truck. I was horrified.

Aftermath: What he did was illegal and I lost a lot of respect for him that day. I also realized just how little he respected me because he wasn’t a bit concerned about how it made me feel witnessing the kill. We divorced a year later.

He snapped his fingers at the extremely swamped bartender.
—Jer
Aftermath: This was merely a portent of the boorish and exceedingly rude behavior to come that night. After exchanging a horrified look with the bartender and mouthing “Sorry!” I hurried the date to its conclusion as quickly as possible.

It was over when we were out for the first time with my friends. She invited out a “friend” and proceeded to hang off his arm. I ditched her and her friend immediately, with the bar tab.
—Andy
Aftermath: She tried to contact me two days later to see if she could buy weed off a friend of mine. I let her know she had no class.

We had been dating about a month when I told him that I was half Jewish. He got a weird look on his face, but didn’t say anything. The next day, he told me that he couldn’t see me anymore because he wanted to be a Baptist preacher one day. He couldn’t be with a girl with a Jewish heritage, even though I didn’t practice the religion. I guess we shouldn’t have had all that dirty sex if he was to be a man of God.

Aftermath: We still had to work together for a few months after that, and then he moved out of town. I haven’t seen him since. I wonder if he’s a preacher now?

After 18 months, he cheated. He works in law enforcement, is very thin skinned and doesn’t like people talking about him behind his back. So, I posted nasty comments, his sexual tendencies and other info, including pics, in very public domains!
—Scott Free
Aftermath: He had people walking up to him, propositioning him for sexual favors, with people pointing and laughing. His friends are catty and will laugh at and about him for years!
