What ended your last relationship?

Hoooo boy.

The last guy I was with was a habitual cheater. Being stupid and smitten, I dated him anyway. He dumped me with the cop-out, "I'm not ready for a relationship" explanation, but it only took a few days for him to post that he was in a relationship with the girl he'd been clearly been banging. What makes this story even remotely noteworthy is that 3 months later (and by this time I was dating another, much awesomer guy who is still my boyfriend a year later) he emailed me soliciting me for sex. Mind you, he was still with that other woman. So he cheated on me with her, then wanted to cheat on her with me. Just... wow.

Now my boyfriend's ex story is a lot better, and I wish he was willing to tell it (but he's honestly still pretty sour about it). He was with a girl for 5 years... I won't speak for him, but rather quote him directly: he said she was boring, selfish, needy, and completely fake. She constantly joins fandoms, and acts a certain way to get a guy's attention. This girl had a lot of habits/addictions, such as constantly flirting with other guys on the internet, but probably one of the best ones he's told me yet is that she would play on his consoles a lot, and he'd "gift" her one (like his Wii, for instance), then, she would turn around and immediately sell it, and spend the money on garbage (like a several hundred dollar tokidoki bag). She did this with at least THREE of his systems.

So, Redditors, why did the relationship end? Well that one is just priceless. She cheated on him repeatedly with guys who fit the following description: fat, neckbeard, manchild gamers over 35. She's 25. When caught (but not owning up to) cheating, she'd throw massive tantrums, and my boyfriend, being the emotional pushover he is (or rather was-- the whole experience with her hardened him), would forgive her, believing she could "grow past it". But what finally ended the relationship was HER dumping HIM because of her "guilt". After a huge falling out (which included him utterly destroying his side of the bed frame of the bed that HE bought for them, where she had been fucking other men), she went and told everyone (friends, family, his mother, etc.) that he was BEATING her, and that was why she was ending the relationship (no mention of her cheating, of course). What mindfucks me the most is that so many people still side with her knowing that the claim was unequivocally bullshit, saying she was "hurt" and that's why she said those things.

You might think she learned something from the falling out of cheating. Well that would be wishful thinking, friend. She made the latest neckbeard extraordinare her boyfriend, and the "relationship" exploded in her face only a few months after (I caught wind of it because we have a lot of mutual friends). No... she still writes poetry about how she "doesn't wanna be a good girl" and spins in the delusion that her constant cheating is justified.

I just can't even. I can't.

If I seem a little obsessed, it's probably because I am. A little. This person's self-depreciating delusions and constant cycle of self-destruction and rebuilding and SOMEHOW not being completely outcast from human society for committing constant atrocities towards other human beings astounds me...

Facedesk 5ever.
