You would think you’d be able to count on your partner after losing your job-but, not in this guy’s case.
3. Sign Language
The day I broke my arm, my girlfriend signed my cast “I found someone new”. Broken Arm and a Broken Heart #HowIGotDumped

And to think he has to look at that message for the next couple of weeks. She could have at least wished him well first.
4. Joke’s On You
Got passed a note 2 minutes after we got together -"Just kidding" #HowIGotDumped
— Taylor Butler (@tbutt15) March 5, 2018
We doubt that guy has a future in comedy but is a dead ringer for being an asshole.
5. Block Game Strong
She asked me how to block someone on whatsapp.. I was not able to send her any more messages after the last set of instruction 😂#HowIGotDumped
— Manmeet Singh Kalsi (@kalsimanmeet) February 28, 2018
If I were him, I’d be more upset that she asked instead of figuring it out for herself.
6. New Year, New Relationship
He gave me a calendar for Christmas and on January 1st he wrote “become Single” … #HowIGotDumped
— Erin (@grandeaftxrhrs) February 28, 2018
We all have our goals, but this guy started the New Year off being a jerk.
7. Money Talks
I was young and I had this huge huge huge crush on this guy. The guy and his friends found out, they bet $25 that I would say yes immediately if he asked me out.
He asked, of course I said yes. Three days later he told me about the bet, said sorry, gave me $10#HowIGotDumped

He could have at least given her half considering he broke her heart.
8. Date Disaster
My boyfriend took me to the movies & once we sat down he left to get us popcorn and never came back. 25 mins later I got a text and said ‘I can’t do this. I’m breaking up with you’. He was my drive too. I had to call my parents to come get me after the movie #HowIGotDumped

I bet you she learned her lesson the hard way: always walk with money for cab fare-JUST.IN.CASE.
9. Long-Distance Dumped
I took a train, a five hour bus ride, and an hour car ride to visit my partner at school and when I arrived they began our convo with “I think we should end this.”#HowIGotDumped @jimmyfallon
— Adam Patla (@apat10) February 28, 2018
I hope they got reimbursed for that trip.
10. Text Talk Mix-Up
I got a text that said “dude, I think I’m gonna break up with her”.. followed by “oops sorry I didn’t mean to send that to you, well I guess kinda” #HowIGotDumped

Some things are better left unsaid…through text.
