Ever had an awkward breakup? Want somewhere to vent about things your ex did in the past or continues to do? Want to ask for breakup advice? This is the place to do it!
I have lots of awkward stories about my exes! 
Iāll be sharing as we go along!
Iāve never had an ex, but I have a few friends who did. 
Oh man, where to startā¦
I had a fun time when I broke up with a former boyfriend while we were living together (a poor life choice to begin with) and then couldnāt afford to move out until months laterā¦ we alternated nights in the bed and on the futon.
Pretty sure you must have read my open letter about my very first boyfriend who was a complete douchenozzle. Iād say that it took me a year to get over him because now Iām like, āWhy I was with him in the first place?ā when I realised these red flags such as:
In general, his chauvninistic behaviour really put me off. I donāt think he broken up with me over the distance because I knew that it was an excuse for him to find a rebound yet he said that he wanted a long-term relationship. I hate to say this but he acted like a real dog, not defending me when someone attacks me.
Happy to say that Neffex and the concert did me a favour, helping me to get over him.
Where to start, where to start 
My friend and I pretended to be a couple for a week, does that mean that sheās my ex now? 
Youāre your own ex! 
I M P O S S I B L E
Why am I my own ex?
I never dated myself, or did I? 
Apologies if I go off topic but I think this song is perfect for recovering from a really bad break up:
Please excuse your dumb friend that misread friend for self 
Not an ex but a story that thoroughly disgusted me and honestly if this guy is now walking on the same side of the street as me, I cross over just to avoid him.
Basically there is this popular guy in the year above me at school who said something to me that was so out of line I basically just stood there in shock. His older brother said it first but still.
āYou have the body of a stripper but your boobs let you down.ā
Yesh that were the exact words they both used and sometimes i now see them and their pals glancing at me then looking away when they see me look at them.
Okay so allllll my past exās I was able to get over them with such ease. Heck my last last ex cheated on me but I was gonna end the relationship anyways. But my current ex I really do love him like we had a whole future planned together and Iām just hurt that I kinda did throw the relationship out the window like he did his own things and kinda wounded our relationship but I shouldāve talked to him instead of like slashing our relationship up like dinner. So now we donāt talk or even look at each other and itās so awkward I swear and I still love him and stuff
tries to think about where to start
Do tou really want me to vent ā¦it is not a good idea
I know I have said my bit but I wanted to ask you guys, do you ever wish you could go back to the day you wish youāve never met them? Yeah, I felt that.
I think one of the fews problems I had with one my exes was the one I had with my last ex.
He had this belief that men and women canāt be friends with each other without one being in love with the other. Which resulted in him being jealous of the guy friends that wasnāt our mutual friend. He even tried to accuse me of cheating with one guy that I didnāt even have any contact with outside of school. I think he (the friend) and I only hung out once at his house once and that was before I even started dating my ex back then ā¦
I honestly was pretty pissed about the accusation because I value loyalty a lot when it comes to relationships and would never cheat on someone.
Yeouch that sounds a little like a farce! It must have been ridiculously awkward!
So Iām going to make my story as PG as possible
My ex was a good guy. He tried to spoil me, but he always did it with money, and not really in an emotional way. It made me feel like he was just throwing money at me to shut me up, to be honest.
But anywayā¦ early on in the relationship, he told me he couldnātā¦ feel attracted to me because I was too fat. And that just set us up for failure, to be honest. In the back of my mind, I always thought about that.
So when I went to uni and he came up to visit me, he kindaā¦ struggled to muster the emotions I wanted him to and couldnāt really show me the affection I needed. And in the back of my mind, every time this happened, I thought back to the time that he called me fat. I wasnāt fat at all back then. I was actually very fit, but I have a very hourglass figure and my mum is petite and sheād make fun of my butt and tell me I just needed to lose a little bit more weight constantly, so I had a complex about being fat
Anyway, being at uni and being surrounded by my male friends, some of whom were attracted to me, was a bit of a disaster. I never truly, consciously cheated on him. I would never cheat. But I ended up emotionally cheating quite a lot without realising it. I would kinda allow people to flirt with me and not really do anything to stop them from telling me I was hot etc. Iām naturally quite a flirty person, too, so I couldnāt really tell when it was my personality and when it was me compensating for the affection I didnāt feel like I was getting from him.
In particular, I ended up talking to my ex best friend a lot more than him: an ex best friend who was never romantically interested in me, but found me pretty attractive in other ways. My ex realised I was withdrawing and started getting very paranoid. He logged into my snapchat once, then checked my phone another time.
And heād always find guys flirting with me and me not putting a stop to it. Saying things like āhaha well itās a shame Iām in a relationship huh 
ā I know. I know. Itās bad.
Also, I broke up with him just before freshers week for some reason (canāt remember why) and we got back together afterwards. So I was flirting heavily with my best friend at that point and when he found the conversation on snapchat, he got pretty angry, rightfully now that I look back on it. I mean, this guy was in my life and giving me relationship advice and weād both seized the opportunity to flirt (nothing else) as soon as I was single. If course he got paranoid! There was also something about him thinking that I was flirting with the guy after we got back together? But thatās definitely not what happened.
Blah blah blah I started feeling super suffocated, especially because I was getting attention from other people. Then he text my mum when she was at work asking where I was and it was the straw that broke the camelās back for me. Done. No more relationship.
I have to say that Iām not innocent in this situation, but I do still feel like the fat comment caused this spiral. I just handled it really badly.
I feel like youāre being too nice to him.
Not being able to prop up the soldier because of all the training videos heās watched is pretty pathetic, ngl 
That didnāt bother me so much as the blaming me did. 
That and then him getting upset about it later on in the relationship and me having āitās because Iām fatā in the back of my head while trying to comfort him
