Thread: Standout moments from when you were in a relationship

And I don't mean good standout moments. Personally, I've had 2 occasions where I truly realised the b*tch I was in a relationship with.

Girlfriend #1 - I was in hospital, having surgery. It was probably classed as "minor" surgery, but nonetheless, it was a general anaesthetic and if there was ever a time I needed support... now was the time. Anyway, she got with another guy and was planning baby #1 with him whilst I was having surgery - the heartless piece of shit. I got my last laugh though - the guy she cheated on me with had 2 kids from another woman, so you can only imagine how awkward that family dynamic must be - two kids with a half-brother, a new "mum" in the picture - and I also laughed because the father of the kid was a total Chad with no prospects, whereas I had a career, no kids, no baggage. Truly her loss.

Girlfriend #2 - Smoked weed. I gave her 1 year to stop smoking. She was living in the US, I am in the UK. 1 year passed and she said: "I'll stop when I get there." yeah right. She hadn't even begun to cut down. Anyway, I ended up in hospital just as she'd flew over to see me (why do girlfriends seem to not give a flying fuck about you when you're in hospital?) and was in severe pain. When I got home from hospital, she expected me to cook her breakfast, lunch and dinner, and when she returned to the US, I told her "can you please stop smoking?" she said I was "controlling" and then proceeded to ignore me, so the relationship fizzled out. What's more than this - when we first got together, she told me about her past. She said how she had a "hoe phase" and was banging chad and couldn't get enough.... I couldn't even get a dirty text from her. That's how I knew she had to go.

Over to you!

Once I was with my then GF. I was going through a very difficult time. I was in a truly horrible job that I hated but was not in a strong position to get another job. This coupled with a very difficult long running issue with a family member of mine.

I was talking to her about this stuff one day and my eyes started welling up; not actually blubbing but still not my proudest moment. What I now remember was the look on my ex GF's face when she saw this. Utter disgust. Not surprise, not shock, not a disappointment. Disgust.

At the time I felt ashamed, thought my behaviour pathetic. Looking back I see that whether it was or not, her response speaks volumes. This was a woman who would cry and go into hysterics and even panic attacks (possibly faked) over minor problems at work or a friend of hers going through some minimal relationship problems. This was one of the only times I'd ever shown any weakness and she loathed me for it.

I'll never forget the look on her face.

I really only ever had one girlfriend it lasted 2 weeks. She cheated on me. I suspect that she used me to get another guy jealous who had been orbiting her as a friend for a long time. As soon as she got with me he confesses his love for her and that was pretty much it.
