When I was in year 7, I was asked out by this boy in my class whom I REALLY liked, to go on a date with his best friend and his girlfriend and we decided to meet up at the cinema. I was waiting for ages and as we eventually missed the start of the film, I made the decision to go home. Their plan all along was to not show up. Also, two boys in my class were basically a double act and would ask me out all the time as a joke. I would always say no but didn't realise it was a joke. The whole year knew about it and would point and laugh to my face but they'd never say why . I was the only brown girl at my school so felt left out enough as it was.

Told a woman i had just started seeing that i wanted to really get to know her before having sex. She said "are you sure you aren't gay?" Well, i am bi, but that has nothing to do with not wanting to hook up with a stranger.

"No one deserves to be rejected" isn't quite how I would phrase it, more like no one deserves to be rejected rudely- with the obvious exception of jerks and rapey people. But it's within everyone's rights to say they're not interested.

Was engaged for nearly 2 years when an accident left me in a wheelchair. Got out of hospital after 3 months when he gave me my engagement ring. Next week during school he waited until everyone was switching classes that he couldn't marry me because he got another girl pregnant. He's been married multiple times since & I have been with my husband for 24 years.

I have another...was a guy in high school I crushed on an would hang out with him an his buddy all the time. We were just all friends. One day I was at his house an we were goofing around in his room an wound up play wrestling an he wound up sitting on my lap with me pinned to the ground. I thought he was gonna kiss me but he just got a glazed look in his eyes an got up. Nothing ever happened between us ever. Years years years later found out he married a foreign girl an would beat her an degrade her. Guess I got off that bus before crazy town was reached.

After nearly five years and an engagement, my ex dumped me when I became disabled after a work injury. Harsh, but I'm pretty sure I dodged a bullet there.

I was 22 years old studying at a design department of a university. Never had any friends in school and in high school and I was really trying to make friends. So the fellow classmates invited me on a birthday lunch during the break hours. I kept waiting for them alone in our studio because they planned to go together from the university. They all went out, celebrated and everything came back to the studio and literally laughed at my face and when I asked, a guy from the group shouted at me and they all stopped talking to me!

Really really liked this guy that looked like Richard Greco from 21 jump street. That's the era. Lol. So we hang out an make out an etc. Then We just sorta became friends only. I wound up moving to Florida an when I came back he was dating my so called friend. I was staying with mutual friends on a couch til my mom let me come back. So the guy is like hey wanna get some lunch? I was at the apt I was staying at an said ok I'll meet you in the lobby. I go down. We meet in the lobby. Go eat. Come back. He leaves and I go back up to the apt. But apparently this turned into him "having come up" an me "making passes at him" and my friends kicked me out an my ex best friend wouldn't talk to me. I did nothing wrong an was giving him a chance as a friend I used to be in a relationship with. He slandered me because I left him to move to Florida.

My friend, who had a long-term girlfriend, went to study in Paris for a term. They spoke everyday, he couldn't wait to see her so they arranged for her to visit for two weeks. He went to pick her up at the station and she turned up with a new boyfriend... He had to share the room for two weeks with both of them. The other one happened to my female friend whose boyfriend of 2 years broke up with her by saying that he was an actor and their relationship was in fact him preparing himself for a role.

I stopped after reading about 15 of these. They're making me too sad

It seems like some people can't see the difference between being honest and being a jerk...

I was on a scholarship for an expensive school, so my classmates were mostly from very wealthy families. I had a boyfriend when I was about 13, and I went to his house one time. His mother drove me home after the visit, then made him break up with me after she saw where I lived.

I was at a summer camp and there was that dream boy.. At the camp party, he asked me for a dance, waited for my face to lit up and for me to stand before laughing out loud before grabbing his friend and doing a mick dance. I felt hurt, humiliated and then SHE happened. It was the camp Mean Girl™. We were at odd because rowdy teenagers and drama etc. And she went DOWN on him like the f*cking apocalypse on the poor world. It was to the point where even the dj stopped and that boy was left a crying mess on the dance floor. She spent the evening consoling me and glaring daggers at him.... THE SISTERHOOD LIVES GIRLS! THE SISTERHOOD LIVES!

8th grade (12yo) Went on a date to the skating rink (popular hang out). He spent the time with a girl from his group that was there and had sex with her in the bathroom while I waited :)
