Freshman year of college I started dating a 1L law student, which I thought was great (I was still in my "dating older guys is cool" phase). We were off and on throughout my sophmore year, but completely on the 2nd semester of my sophmore year. One day about a week before finals, I got a call from a friend who said…

She definitely gets a lot of credit for that day.

I later asked her why she did that, and she explained his father, her ex-husband, had been a serial cheater. She knew her ex was a cheater, but she'd stayed for years, and it only led to misery. She said she didn't want me and her granddaughter to endure that. We…

My 11-year-old daughter found a used condom on the floor of our bedroom while I was away getting radiation treatment for cancer. When she asked her father about it, he said he liked to "do" himself with condoms. She didn't believe him, and after a tortured 3 weeks, she finally told me. When I confronted him, he…

Who the fuck cheats on and lies to a cancer patient?!

Oh, that motherfucker's going DOWN.

oh Jesus.

Sorry ladies. I win this one.

Well, who could hold up under such a withering cross-examination as that?

LOL please leave this as a yelp review of her wedding business.

About seven years ago I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. I was lucky in that it was fairly isolated so they just chopped that sucker out, but I was devastated by the treatments. Just.. so so sick. An old friend of mine (we'd shared a really shitty apt in NYC in my early 20s and during this time she and I had had a…

My husband of three years started watching My Little Pony. And I was like...okay. Whatever. That's fine. Until he started verging into brony territory. And then I got a bit concerned.

He told me. "I slept with my ex a month ago, and we had a pregnancy scare. Do with that information what you will." And then he left to go do laundry. What even. But a few months later he sent me an extra long text apologizing and letting me know I was better off without him because he was living in the supply room at…

Reposted from last year (same question)(still gross!)

In the middle of the night I started getting text messages from a number I did not recognize. The texts were screenshots of someone else's text conversation. I recognized both names in the conversation. My husband and my best friend - who was my maid of honor. It turns out the number I didn't recognize was her soon to…

He'd just come back from a Boy Scout camp (he was a troop leader? I think that's what they're called in English) and as soon as I kissed him hello, he said, "We need to talk." I felt the familiar pang of doom in my belly. I'd been cooking all afternoon for him, but then I could hardly eat. About 11:30 pm we go…

When she showed up at our apartment with a toddler. Cute little bugger- looked just like my at the time husband.

I feel like mine's pretty standard, but I want to share anyway. :-P

"Sorcia, I'm in love with your best friend [a dude with a hilariously ridiculous name that I cannot post here]. We're moving to Virginia and I hope you'll be happy for us."

I'm divorced now. But about 2 months after the divorce was final I was on the phone with my ex telling him I was going to be in his area that weekend and wanted to stop by and see the beloved dog he kept (we had two dogs and we split them up), thinking the dogs could play. I had thought the divorce was amicable.…

So I was living in Israel for a few years (I'm American) and fell in love with a soldier. He had an administrative job in the army so he came home every day. After about a year, he said he felt really guilty about "not doing his part" for the army. That he had a sudden urge to fight for his country and had volunteered…
