Clothes, Relatable, Awkward and Love: Cruel

Cruel

By scorned_jacketless_lady - 26/08/2013 04:52 - Australia - Brisbane

Today, after spending the weekend together, my ex turned nasty. I finally had the balls to tell him what a cruel asshole I think he is and really hit him where it hurts. I felt very empowered and strong. That is, until I realized I left my favourite and rather expensive jacket in his apartment. FML

Today, I finally got the courage to leave my controlling and manipulative ex. He took it well. And by "took it well", I mean he camped out my doorstep, held some of my belongings hostage, and tried to blackmail me into staying with him. FML

Today, while sorting through my clothes, I found one of my ex's old sweaters. After a lot of thought and difficulty, I threw it out. I felt empowered, until my father later rifled through my trash and claimed the sweater for himself. FML

Today, I finally got a restraining order against my violent ex. My mom now keeps finding ways to tell me how shitty I am for breaking the "poor boy's" heart and how I didn't deserve him anyway. FML

Today, I found the purse that some asshat stole from my 15-year-old sister a few days ago. I found it in my now ex-boyfriend's closet. When I confronted him, he broke up with me for "invading" his privacy and kicked me out, without the purse. FML

Today, I got into a huge fight with my boyfriend after driving 200 miles to see him. While arguing, I told him I never wanted to see him again and left after slamming the front door. I left my car keys in his kitchen. FML

Today, I caught my ex trying to slash my car tires with a knife. She actually had the balls to claim she was testing my tire pressure, before power-walking off into the distance like nothing had happened. FML

Ultraviolence

Today, I finally stood up to a bully who had been messing with me for over a year. His response? He picked up the chair I was sitting in and threw me across the room. FML

Letting you know

By Anonymous - 18/02/2013 21:30 - United States - Los Angeles

Today, I felt like letting my ex know just how I felt about all the bullshit he put me through. I dug up his number, typed a long paragraph with lots of pain and emotion, and sent it. The reply was, "No wonder he broke up with you." Thanks, whoever has that number now. FML

This ain't working out

Today, my boyfriend and I got into a heated argument. He raised his hand like he was going to hit me. Having been hit by my ex before, I panicked and instinctively kicked his legs out from under him. He then dumped me because he said he was just gonna scare me, but I used real violence on him. FML

Nice neighborhood

Today, after my ex broke up with me, I threw out all the clothes he’d bought me before, which was basically my entire wardrobe. Anyway, this creepy guy who lives a few blocks away seems to be wearing my old clothes and waves my bras and panties at me. It’s gross and creepy. FML

Honey, if he was that bad, it's worth losing the coat. Congratulations for standing up to him. It's definitely not an easy thing to do.

Well, time to go ask for it back. Be nice about it, just for the coat.

Go back with a friend and tell cruel asshole to give you back your jacket.

I think the satisfaction of finally saying something to him would make it up for me

Good for you not putting up with it! Try to get a mutual friend to get it for you, if you have one.

Why did you spend the weekend with your ex? (unless he wasn't your ex before the weekend, but it didn't sound like it)

You "hit him where it hurts"? I hope you meant verbally; there is no excuse for violence. And even then, I think being needlessly cruel when you tell someone off is wrong too. You can state your reasons for leaving, but that doesn't mean you need to be uncivil about it.

"hit him where it hurts" is a regional colloquialism. It basically means she said something that hurt his ego.

Seriously? You're blaming her for being uncivil to an abusive boyfriend? It sounds like the boyfriend got what he deserved.

Never said it was abusive, just shitty, a lot of things can be shitty for many different reasons. Perhaps try read some before adding your ego and interpretations to it first.

62 - Someone can behave in a way that you find "nasty" without that being cause for you to "hurt" them. You don't know what he did. Maybe he just wouldn't put his smartphone away and OP felt ignored. Walking away is good, but trying to really hurt someone because they're not what you expect, is not.
