Getting me into s*x work, living off the money he made me make. (I recognise he was more of a pimp than a boyfriend but that's usually how s*x trafficking starts anyway.).

I forgave the cheating, the humiliating me in front of my loved ones, him drunkenly wrecking the car I loaned him money for and many other really dumb things I should’ve dumped him and ran from.

But the one that made me decide he’s dead to me was after a natural disaster hit our town and destroyed a ton of homes, including my rental and his own family’s home, he got mad that my parents’ house was untouched and said how he hopes it burns to the ground, they deserve it.

I think my spirit left my body and prevented a murder that day. It took about 5 years and moving 2k miles away to stop feeling like if I ever saw him again, I’m gonna run him over lol. He’s truly dead to me now, I don’t think I’d even notice if he walked up at this point lol.

My ex and I were locked in a contentious custody battle. She claimed that my father had inappropriately touched our four year old son. If you knew these people you would know that accusation is completely unbelievable, and she is exactly the kind of person that would make it. By the way when all said and done she signed away custody and my boy who is now 36 is doing fine.

The f****r threw away the teddy bear I was given on the day I was born. Y'know, that teddy that's had all it's fur hugged off and your mum had to sew the head back on because you cuddled it so hard.

The exploitation of my good nature and bank balance, along with the dead bedroom and alcoholism were arguably partly my fault because I enabled it for years. You can't help somebody who doesn't want to be helped.

But my f*****g teddy bear? No.

So happy RN though and with a wonderful partner who treats me like a queen. I hear that the ex is doing better now and is sober, so good for him too.

After we broke up because my ex gf was losing her temper and hitting me (knowing I’d never retaliate as she was a girl I was a guy etc) she still wouldn’t stop contacting me. I said I’d go to the police so she stopped contacting me….but a few months later I started dating a new girl, and my ex started contacting her (she’d stalked her on social media)!

She made outrageous claims like we had kids (?!) and that I was still sleeping with her (easily disproven as the time/date she gave I was luckily with my new gf) but after a few weeks of this harassment it had ruined my new relationship.

I did then contact the police, and my crazy ex was given a caution and has been “bound over” not to contact me or any partner again. She also lost her job (ironically, she worked for the police herself). But I lost a new relationship with someone I really liked, so I’ll never forgive my selfish, aggressive ex.

Telling me that he hoped my cousins (who were children at the time) and my uncle would die in a fiery car crash in the middle of nowhere with no hope of rescue just so the world could be rid of useless people.

Bonus points for the time he pointed a loaded gun at me with the safety off, in full preparation to fire it.

He's now getting sued for medical malpractice, so I look forward to hearing the outcome.

I write fiction to blow off steam. Some novel ideas, some film ideas, some poetry, some song lyrics……a little bit of everything. I had/have no interest in getting published or having anyone else read any of my work. It is strictly a creative outlet that I had no plans to monetize or spread any further than my desktop. Not unlike playing guitar in your own bedroom with no intention of joining a band or booking any gigs. For me it just feels cathartic and gets challenging the more you get into it.

We had been dating for 8 months. She borrowed my laptop for her job. No problem. I have nothing to hide on it. Just don’t get a virus or anything. A week later, her new work laptop arrives.

I get mine back, and all of the files for my writing had been erased. Like, not just the dippy poetry or teenager level song lyrics. All of it. Gone. Literally hundreds of hours spent trying to improve each work. Gone. I didn’t back any of it up on disk (yes, it was that long ago—no cloud) because I assumed it would be safe in her hands.

We were supposed to meet up at a local rock club that night to watch a show. I walk in and break up with her right there. She tried to defend her actions and say she was sad that I didn’t write anything for her. All of the content was either completely fictional or about other people. I just told her never to talk to me again and left. We spoke maybe 2 times after that and she still didn’t comprehend the depth of loss and betrayal I was feeling. She knew she had f****d up and admitted to that. But these arguments further showed me that she was incapable of empathy towards me and what I consider important. Maybe she has grown up some since then, but I don’t care enough now to find out.

Intentionally caused a fight to prompt her to want to "take a break" over a one-month vacation, cheated on me with all three of her exes during that time and posted about it publicly. She refused to understand how I wouldn't want to be her partner after that; we were "on a break" so it wasn't technically cheating.

She called me one time early in the morning to go pick her up at some random house, It turns out she cheated on me with a guy she found at the club and he didn't bother to get her an uber or cab money just used and tossed her out, basically kicked her out before his girlfriend comes home from night-shift (she was a nurse) so she decided to call her boyfriend(me) to pick her up from the house she just f****d the whole night in.

Used my childhood trauma of my parent being an abusive alcoholic against me when I called him out for his drinking behaviors and coming home blacked out from work. Told me I was projecting my trauma and issues with my parent into him and I needed help/ therapy bc I wasn’t a good partner.

We’re now divorced. Therapy worked wonders for me so jokes on him.

We had different goals. He wanted to settle while I wanted to travel, so I was about to leave the relationship and move to another country. He wasn't happy with my decision but told me that he'd let me go for my own happiness.
He took me to a fancy dinner 1 month before my departure, got me drunk and then proceeded to have unprotected sex with me. It was dark and he assured me he was wearing a condom.

A month later i discovered I was pregnant. He expected me to keep it and got annoyed when I was adamant about the abortion.
When we finally broke up for good, he admitted he got me pregnant on purpose, hoping I would stay with him.
Makes my blood still boil that he could manipulate me like that. We were together for 4 years before and I trusted him completely.

Please don't "wait until kids are 18". Don't give them the burden of growing up in a messed-up relationship that pretends to be "happy and healthy". That's like gaslightening them at 18 about whatever of their childhood was real. So work it out and go on, or separate now.

Not only did she cheat on me and completely abandon me 6 months prior to our wedding date, but she took our cat from a quiet loving home to her mom's where she most likely never had a moment of peace. Her mom's dogs chase her cats and most of them won't even leave the basement due to fear of those yappy little a******s. It broke my heart when I found out the love of my life was a cheating, lying wh*re...but, even 5 years later, I still can't get over the thought of my sweet cat living in hell due to her selfishness. I will NEVER forgive her for that and I hope she never has a moment's peace in life.

Years ago my ex took naked pictures and video of me without my knowledge. The video recorder was hidden and the pictures were taken when I was asleep naked. He started to cheat on me and I caught him and tried to break up. He threatened to share my pictures on the internet and with everyone I knew.  This was before revenge p*rn laws became a thing and I was young enough not to know what rights I had. I stayed with him months longer out of fear where he continued to sleep with others and pressured me into sex with him using the threat of my pictures.  I eventually broke down and confided in my parents. My mom blamed me and said I was stupid for putting myself in the position where he got those pictures and video even though I didnt knowingly do it. Both of them told me to just ignore him and hed go away.  I finally got sick of the threats and broke up with him. For a month he stalked me everywhere and continued to threaten. Eventually though, he did make good on his threats and sent copies of the pictures to some family, friends, etc and probably posted my videos somewhere online. It has left me screwed up to this day.  I was parnoid amd checking for cameras for a long time. I never sleep naked. I never allow a camera phone in the room when having sex, and I have told every partner they will never get naked pictures of me. My husband was the first guy to take it in stride instead of pulling the "you dont trust me" card. He understood what I went through and has never asked me. .

Friend of a friend "Andy" asked me to go to prom with him and agreed to go to my prom with me. My boyfriend was away at college and would not be able to go to my senior prom with me. So it seemed like a fair exchange Andy needed a date to his senior prom and I needed one to mine so we would go as friends. I asked around about this guy Andy and everybody told me what a great upstanding guy he was. So I felt safe going to prom with him. It turns out that the only reason he took me to his prom was because the girl he had been crushing on for years agreed to finally sleep with him, if he made it seem like I had cheated on my boyfriend with him. Why would she do this? Because two years earlier she had wanted to date my boyfriend, and found out I was already dating him, so she started this mission to trying to destroy our relationship. She would report me and my boyfriend to the office for doing inappropriate things in the hallway, and she made other accusations about me to the principal. Her setting me up with Andy was her last ditch effort to not only ruin my reputation at school, but break me and my boyfriend up for good. She bribed Andy's best friend with sexual favors as well to have him slip stuff in my drink at the prom. The last thing I clearly remember is asking my date why all of my sodas were open when his bestie brought them to the table. His response was "Donny's just being a gentleman don't be a b***h".

A few years later I was hired to be the photographer at a wedding, it wasn't until 2 days before the wedding I found out who the groom was. At his wedding Andy cornered me alone and told me how awkward it was for him to see me there, because of our sexual history together. As far as I knew we had no history together, because I have no memory of anything happening between us. When he saw the look of disgust on my face, he said to me "Oh relax it was just a joke what do I have to do d**g you again?"

Though I can't say anything good came out of the situation itself, I can say that me and my boyfriend never actually broke up. We've been married for many years now. But I will never forgive Beth, Andy, or Donnie for what they did to me.

Faking a pregnancy to try an manipulate me into staying with her(we weren't married and i was barely 21), me calling her out in the first month, her continuing to lie and when i gave her an ultimatum she went to my dying mother and lied to her too... I will absolutely never forgive her for that. Luckily my mom knew me well enough that if i told her this wasn't true she knew i wouldn't lie about it, however for about 2.5 months it was constant hell and doubting myself daily. I knew she wasn't pregnant but i also wasn't 100% sure, that .1% lived in my head that entire time.

Edit: to help paint the picture a bit more. We got to the above bc i got pretty drunk she wasn't and right before the fireworks so to speak she locked down on me (knowing I wasn't trying to have children) and wouldn't let me up during the finally, trapping me down (she was bigger than me) and saying how she needs my babies... that was the redflag that started the whole thing. As a 21 year old whom is somewhat responsible at least on that front (somewhat not completely...) this was a massive redflag that I couldn't ignore and she played it off like it was nothing even though many times before I mentioned I didn't want children until I thought we were both ready and responsible adults.

Interestingly enough just last month I got a message from her soon to be ex husband, whom when they got together i got a bunch of angry messages from him saying i was such a terrible person... I reached back out and showed him the messages that she was sending me begging to get back together, I tried to warn the dude "bro to bro" and sent him all the screen shots saying "hey man i know how this looks, it's going to sound like i am trying to be a homewrecker here... But i promise i would never get back together with her and from bro to bro you should run... do what you will bc none of this will effect my life but she is going to manipulate you like she already has into you starting this conversation." Now years later they have 3 kids and are going through a divorce caused by her. Poor dude is destroyed but he did reach back out to me and told me i was right and was sorry he didn't listen. I didn't even know how to respond other than "hey man if you want to grab a beer and talk s**t first round on me.".

She regularly assaulted me. Then when my brother was no longer in a relationship, she dumped me under the pretenses that I was the second best thing, and now that he was free she didn't have to settle for second place. Then when he didn't want her, she came crawling back to me expecting me to happily take her back.


This has ruined me for life I feel, as I just cannot bring myself to trust romantic partners in meeting my brother.

And it was not just her, everyone - my entire life - has always liked my brother more. And I'll never understand why. It's not exactly like I'm supposed to just be him. I got my own god damn identity, and yet because I'm not him, all the pieces of s**t who've plagued my life act like I'm inferior. F**k those people. Everyone I've met who knows my brother, pretty much.

Manipulation through mind games for over 2 years.

- Having female friends during school was an issue (shared friendship group, most were also her friends)
- Having female flatmates at uni (couldn't be helped)
- Wanting to spend time with my friends was an issue
- Being friends with an ex was an issue (this one I can understand but she was in a friendship group)
- Breaking up with me because "Mum said so" as I was a distraction.

In the end I wasn't allowed to see friends or do anything by myself. Never cheated on her or gave her any form of concern, she was just massively controlling and manipulative.

This ex cheated on me twice during Uni with one of her friends (:

When I dumped her after finding out about the cheating, she lied to our friendship group and said I cheated on her, which I never did. She also threatened to cut herself if I broke up with her, which she did and then sent me photos of it over MSN.

F**k you Vicky.

Edit: I'm happy now, so no need to inform Reddit I'm vulnerable, but appreciate the concern. This was around 16 years ago.

Coming to terms with the fact that my first time wasn't legal nor was it consensual. Took me eight years to finally admit it, since during those eight years I've lived in guilt, shame and denial. J, if by chance you're reading this- I give myself grace for experiencing your shame, for falling for your coercion disguised as care and love, and I forgive myself for being statutorily r*ped by you. Whether you can forgive yourself is your decision.

My girlfriend in college dumped me three times in a row. We never saw each other after graduation. But she kept writing me for decades, despite a husband and seven children. I never answered until I was in my forties and told her to f**k off, giving a detailed explanation why. In case your wondering why I didn't stop her by sending her letters to her husband, I really didn't want her divorced and setting her sights on me. Besides, I felt sorry for the poor bastard.

Honestly and it sounds simple, cheating. I don't date anymore, I'm no longer interested. I'll go out to a bar (just with some mates to socialise, I don't drink) and spend a night with someone but that's it. I can't date. When I did I just asked my partner to give me two things, their honesty and faithfulness. They never did and it's a more common problem nowadays than people like to admit. Edit: just a follow up someone went to Reddit on me concerned and I don't need the help but it was the sweetest thing ever I don't know you, but thank you.

Other than spending a night with someone, I'm the same. My last partner knew that all I needed was someone who was faithful and told the truth, I didn't get that from him and it was devastating when I found out. It's safer for my mental health if I don't date, I don't see myself as an attractive proposition for anyone, so I would never be able to trust anyone again and I don't want to turn into a jealous harpy.
