Relationships are hard. Finding people you like to begin with might be even harder, and those first days and weeks, when no one is super invested, are always tricky.
One little thing can be enough to tip the scales in your favor – or not – and these 16 people found they just couldn’t go on after the rose-colored glasses came off.
16. Ew, too much.
Sent me a snap chat of them on the shi**er.
Then said “what? you dont like my poop selfies?”
I had only matched with them on tinder like 5 days before.
15. She’ll always put herself first.
They asked me to take credit for a car accident they caused. I was sitting in the backseat, with another friend of mine, and she turned around to talk to the friend, while putting her foot on the gas; she rear-ended the car in front of her.
I was the only other person in the car with a license and she panicked. She asked me to quickly get in the drivers seat so the woman whose car got hit would think I hit her. I didn’t hate her for it or anything, but something like that really kills feelings.
14. Who does that?
Spit on the ground at the pool. Ain’t nobody got time to step in swimmer goop.
13. What a jerk.
Told me to get my toes “fixed”. Two toes on each foot are HALF webbed. I like them at think they make me look cool and different without being weird or gross.
I was gonna give the guy a bj after we went swimming but sitting by the pool and hearing his opinion of my toes absolutely killed anything I felt. I just told him to leave & that was the end of it.
12. That’s not okay.
Kept squirming his tongue randomly like he was licking something.
11. Suck it up, indeed.
Wore a mesh mask at a place where masks were mandatory.
I don’t like masks either but either suck it up or don’t go places where they’re required.
10. We could all keep going. Sadly.
Would drift while I was in the car because he knew it scared me. He also made me feel like a complete idiot all the time.
Different guy: laughed when I told him how I had been stalked in middle school. Instant nope from me. (He, somewhat unsurprisingly, proceeded to stalk me.)
Guy #3: I heard and saw the way he talked to/treated his mom. If he can’t show the woman who birthed him basic respect, I doubted he would have much for me down the road.
I could keep going, but I think that’s enough for now.
9. When you know, you know.
One of my ex boyfriends yelled at the waitress because she brought out our food and his entree was touching the side dish on his plate.
I was already thinking about ending things, but that accelerated our breakup and I dumped him that same night.
8. Yes, vaping too.
Usually, smoking.
With very few exception.
7. Horrible human.
Said, without knowing it applied to me, that people like me deserved to be rounded up and killed.
6. So many red flags.
Two immediately come to mind.
First was a guy I dated who was great until I heard him make jokes about disabled people and also say the n-word (he’s very white).
Second was a girl who told me that she and her friends go to restaurants and stores and try to be as loud, annoying, rude, and disruptive as they can until they get kicked out. They apparently literally go to the mall and try to get kicked out of as many stores as possible. I don’t have time for people who needlessly bother and disrespect workers like that.
5. That’ll do it.
We talked some politics.
He said, “Trump loves America and pu*sy, so how could I not love him too?”
Attraction gone.
4. Grounds for execution.
Went into the work fridge, shook up a random soda can and laughed uncontrollably for a few seconds and said whoops.
3. My nose is wrinkled so hard.
This very handsome guy I worked with had slept with someone else we worked with. She wasn’t well liked, so I guess he didn’t want people to know about it, but she told everyone (and showed me texts between them, so I knew she was telling the truth), so he would talk s**t about her constantly. He would say some truly awful things about her and it turned me off of him so bad that i just tried to avoid him.
If you’re gonna sleep with someone you work with, you should be on the same page as far as telling other people. And if you don’t make that clear with the other person, don’t try to cover your a$s by being a disgusting jerk.
2. I bet she was surprised.
in my early 20s, dated a girl for a couple of months. One day we were walking around a mall and I mentioned there was something I liked. A little while later she “presented” me with a present.
It was a silver bracelet (the item I was admiring)… asked her when she bought it and she replied “I didn’t, I stole it”. I looked at her and asked “for real”? She said “yep”, I told her to take it back and that I didn’t want to see her anymore.
Too bad, she was a cute girl.
1. Well, that’s awkward.
Found out she had a boyfriend. Gave up because I’m not an a**hole and her bf was my friend.
I’m so glad dating is not my thing anymore.
Now I just have to live with the consequences of my own choices. Easy enough.
