‘I cant get the girls I actually want, so I settle for girls like you.'"
The thread quickly filled with hundreds of nausea-inducing stories, rude remarks, and truly breakup-worthy BS.
Here’s what people shared:

He could barely get the story out, he was laughing so hard.
That would have been bad enough.
No, he did this when he was 21."

“I’m a vet nurse.
While talking about the emotionally difficult day I’d had, he said, ‘They’re just animals.
It’s not like you’re dealing with human lives.’
Lost all interest and respect on the spot.”

“My ex completely changed after we got married.
I was like, ‘Don’t you think I kind of deserve to decide that for myself?
Surprise, surprise, we got divorced.”

“My ex had one towel and no toilet paper in his bathroom.
His main pair of shoes were women’s Uggs he found in a McDonald’s lost and found.
He had moldy dishes that we would throw away rather than wash. Dude had enough money.
He was just gross.”

“‘I’ll marry you only if I don’t get someone better.’
We were dating for two years.
She was the one who first proposed to me.
And, it’s not like we were not a good pair.
Everything was smooth until she said this, and at that point, I just laughed it off.
But, once I came back home, I couldn’t stop thinking about it.

The wording really threw me off.
He was pretty good at masking, so I thought he just misstated it.
Surely my ‘use’ wasn’t my career?
Oh, no, it was.
He said he knew I was ‘selfish’ and would take that ‘the wrong way.'"

“‘I don’t read books written by women.’
Yes, he was a total arsehole.”

The victim was apparently severely injured but didn’t press charges.
When I broke up with him, I told him it was because he lacked empathy.
He’s now married after having dated his now-wife for only a little over a year.
I worry for her."

“‘Why does the toilet or shower need to be cleaned?
They clean themselves.’

We broke up that day.”

This was three years into the relationship.
Everyone thought he was a total catch.
I had a girlfriend who thought I just couldnt handle him.
Hes probably busy ruining someone else’s life right now."

“He would only change his underwear every five days.
u/mayday2k13

“He would pee in used cups and put them under his bed.
His mom would throw them out for him every few days.
I’ve also heard from others that this is ‘really common.’
For me, it was a no-go.”

“‘I like dating younger women because they’re easier to manipulate.’

Glad I got out.”

That’s many times over mine.
But, he said its different for him because hes a guy.
He said that for women, it says something about their values.
But for men, it doesnt reflect anything about them.

“‘Shouldn’t you be held responsible for believing my lies?’
said by one of the most well-educated men I’d ever met.
I burst out laughing and immediately got the ick.
I left a week later.
Sometimes the phrase will float into my brain randomly and I am overcome with the giggles.
Just…what?”
