Been there, done that

By hlewrn - This FML is from back in 2016 but it's good stuff - United States - Centreville

Today, I broke up with my girlfriend for another girl. This other girl helped me break up with her so we could date. After it was all done, she promptly rejected me and in front of everyone, saying how much of a douche I was for leaving my girlfriend for another girl. FML

You two would have been perfect for each other; you both sound like douche-waffles.

Not gonna lie, you should never break up with one person for another. Reason? Because even if she did start dating you she would always suspect you of planning to break up with her. Sorry that she made you out to be an asshole but really...you should have just broken up with your gf on your own and just waited a little while before going for that other girl.

On the one hand, karma, bitch! On the other hand... man, what a nightmare. I cannot think but that it was her intention from the very beginning to just screw with you. Sorry and not sorry.

Yes!! Thank you for teaching me a new adjective. "Douche waffle" is now my new favorite word to describe said people.

#59-Nope, he's a douchebag. If he was unhappy with his girlfriend, then he should've broken up with her because he was unhappy, not because something better came along. He's a douchebag for 1) continuing to string along his girlfriend and 2) for dumping his girlfriend for another person. Yes, some people are unhappy in a relationship but if you are, leave. Dropping someone for someone else is just as bad as cheating, as he developed an emotional attachment of sorts to the girl, enough so that he wanted her over his girlfriend. Not all cheating involves bedroom activity.

It seems like the girl planned it from the start though, so I think she's actually justified in saying no to the date.

Yes you have every right to break up with someone, but on the terms you did, karma snapped back quick.

She knew if you left that girl for her, you might one day leave her for another girl.... YDI !!!!

I think every rule has its exception, it could happen that you're with the wrong person and someone opens your eyes, or you really fall for someone when you're in a not-so-serious relationship. Easy to judge until it happens to you. At least OP was honest and didn't cheat. The other girl, however, is just a bitch.
