Today, my boyfriend broke up with me. I spent the day sobbing in my bedroom and talking shit about him on Facebook after blocking him. He ended up changing his mind and calling me, asking me to take him back. Now I have to awkwardly explain to everyone that we're back together. FML

Half of the time, that kind of stuff does happen and people do end up getting back together soon after as long as it wasn't over anything serious. If I was him, I would break up with you again for talking about him like that so fast.

Hi OP, I think the comments on here are pretty harsh. It can be devastating being broken up with. But he has the right to break up with you and expect not to have stuff spoken about him publicly and vice versa. Of course venting about him and saying stuff to close friends is fine in my opinion, but not on social media. However, you are by no means the only one to do this - loads of people do, and break ups really suck. I can totally understand your reaction, and getting back together with him. I suggest deleting all comments you made on fb, and maybe talking through some of this issues with him that you were venting about, because these are clearly things that bother you and if you want this relationship to last it might be good to deal with them - with him. I would also try and find out why he broke up with you and think about whether you want to get back with him or not. I hope it works out and take care OP

why the hell would you get back if he broke up with you and then changed his mind? a relationship doesn't have an on and off switch. so YDI.

YDI for talking shit so quickly after being broken up with. If you really liked him you wouldn't have done that

This is why I hate Facebook. Everyone feels the need to publicize things that are really no one else's business. It's only for people who desperately need attention any way they can get it.

Even though he did break up with you - you shouldn't have acted like a child and talked shit about him. Also, why take him back if you are going to treat him like that?

more like F his life. biggest pet peeve is people talking shit over social media. you made yourself sound like a really bitter person, OP.

Since you only seem to be about 10 years old I'll break it down Barney style for you. 1. Talking shit about anyone after something like this is a no go. There's a reason people say to take a step back and have a day to yourself. You're just a petty, vindictive little girl and no one likes those. 2. Taking back an ex is like buying back your own shit at a yard sale. If he's so ready to break up and then suddenly take you back it's a major red flag. Gain some maturity because you are, very obviously, not ready for any kind of relationship. YDI

Honestly... if you were so distraught about it, you should have just called your best friend and expressed to them, not blast him on social media. It would have been much less awkward for you. Of course, your best friend would know and would probably judge you, but most of the time best friends see the storm before it comes (for romantic relationships anyway). YDI, though... because it was your fault you had to awkwardly explain to people that you two are back together. They would have never known you were separated if you'd just kept it off social media. Good luck with your relationship, OP!

You realize that in a few days or weeks, he'll break your heart again?
