Today, I got dumped for the second time by the guy that I'd been seeing. He actually forgot that he'd already dumped me once this week and did it again. FML

Today, my now ex-fiancé walked out on me on our wedding day. He decided his best female friend, whom he constantly told me not to worry about while we were together, is his "soulmate." Both of them ran away together to god knows where, while I stood there humiliated in front of our family and friends. FML

Not good enough

Today, my ex-fiancé got married. He left me at the altar last year because the thought of marriage and “taking such a big step” scared him. He’s only been with his new girlfriend for 6 months. Apparently I’m not good enough to marry. FML

Karma?

Today, my ass of a husband to be stood me up at the altar. He embarrassed me in front of everyone. It was humiliating. All because apparently he’s now not OK with the mistake I made. Yes, I slept with your father, but don’t say you forgive me then leave me crying in front of everyone. FML

Today, my relationship of over a decade ended very badly and suddenly. He asked for one last favor and I agreed… before realizing it meant I had to go to the church where we'd always planned to marry. Thanks for the final stake to the heart. FML

Today, at our wedding, instead of saying "I do", my fiancé paused before saying, "I can't do this", stepped down from the altar and proposed to my maid of honor. When she obviously refused, he ran from the venue bawling. He's not returning my calls. FML

YDI for trusting him a second time TBH. If he ran once, get rid of him for good.

Um...why would you try to marry him again if he did that? I'm all for second chances but that's a serious offense - weddings take a lot of time and money to plan and put on, and he walked away from it once and you thought he wouldn't do it again? I hope you don't forgive him a third time...

Also, when she was standing there, the humiliating moment she realizes he got cold feet and ran. All your friends and relatives watching, unsure what to do or say.

He needs a serious kick in the nuts for that! Twice?! But honestly, op, i dont think it was a very good idea to let him back into your life after the first time. Dont worry, REVENGE makes everything better :D

you know, it's supposed to be a sign of insanity if you keep doing the same thing over and over, expecting a different result. i'm sorry you got jilted, but i'm shocked you were willing to give it another go. next time, find someone who hasn't left you yet.
