Oh god. Tipping.

UK. No financial support whatsoever (apart from a small guilt payment the first Christmas that didn't cover the rent arrears, but was appreciated anyway). And yes it should be mandatory, but (deep breath) things had got so ugly by then that he had 'decided' that the kids probably weren't his anyway. He was on the…

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.

Thank you, but don't be! This was actually not, by any stretch, the most evil thing he did. 10 years on we have absolutely nothing to do with him (his call) and this may sound glib but I am so, so glad.

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

I've told this story before here. But.

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

"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 starred that because it was awful. I'm sorry.

My (now ex) fiancé and I had a somewhat long-distance relationship. I worked an a city 3 hours from the small town we lived in, so I would stay with friends or my parents while I worked my 4 days on, and go home on my days off. Things were never "good" when I was at home, but anyone can tolerate each other for 4-5…

She had slept with one of the sports talk guys at the station. He was a REALLY creepy guy. Needless to say that I took an extra long Silkwood shower after I realized that she had slept with creepy guy the same day she slept with Mr. Celebrity, the same day that he slept with me. I still shudder every time I hear…

I received this text from my boyfriend at the time:

My boyfriend of six years ended things through having an affair with a woman he met through his job (she was an ex grad student of a journalism school where he worked - ugh). I had suspected something for a while and he denied, denied, denied. The night we broke up I came home to find him chatting with her and he…

I dated a "local celebrity" for 3 years, and always suspected that he may not have been faithful, but could never prove it. I was working as a sales assistant at a radio station, and we had a staff meeting with our newest hire. This was right after I had finally broken up with the dude, and my supervisor was saying…

When she told me, over the phone, she was pregnant, it wasn't mine, and she was marrying her new boyfriend that weekend. That was literally the only time I broke something out of anger.

College, I was dating a douche y Navy ROTC dude who lived in his frat house. He bailed on a date night with me because he was "sick," so being a dutiful girlfriend, I took some chicken noodle soup over to the frat house. Walk in, walk up to his room, and there he is, banging some rando chick. I hurled the soup at…

I had accidentally lost a friend's favorite book and was too embarrassed to tell him so I told my boyfriend to keep it to himself as I stalled, hoping I would either find it or be able to replace it before he asked me to return it. Our (mutual) friend admitted that my boyfriend had spilled the beans a long time ago.…

Livejournal.

We had been dating for 9 months. I told him I couldn't go to his birthday party, when I was actually planning a big surprise for him. So I showed up with my awesome gift, to find him there with his other girlfriend :(
