Not very spectacular but
It was very depressing. She got her friend to dump me, bitch. The relationship was quite engaging. I have no idea why she did. Oh well....

My girlfriend dumped me about a week before my birthday,
Which, as luck would have it, is also about 3 days from valentines day. Her birthday was also a month before mine and I spent about 70 bone on presents for that biatch.

It was my first girlfriend...
...so obviously I wasn't that full of confidence to begin with. But when better could she choose to dump me, but on New Year's Eve? I'll tell you when - 10 minutes before midnight! That's right. No first New Years kiss for me. I felt very gutted and spent the next day trying to make everyone elses life miserable. Because I'm such a nice guy :)

My fiancée walked out on me
after spending a year nagging me to marry her, I saved up to have the perfect ring made for her. Three months after getting engaged, I came home after work to find all her stuff packed up in her car. She stuck around to say goodbye, but I haven't seen her for more than 30 minutes since, and haven't been given a truthful or reasonable explanation.

I'm still hurt, 'cos we were really good friends; but I'm not bitter ... it changed my life completely :D

I got dunped
I got dumped by text message on the Friday morning of Reading 2001. We had spent one night together in a tent. She said my friends and i were too childish.
What the fuck? And not telling me to my face is the most mature thing to do

oh and theres the time when
GF's best mate informed me that GF and her neighbour were shagging in the college staff toilets. I went and hammered on the door and burst into tears 'cos I could hear them at it. For some reason I didn't dump her there and then but waited for her to drop me a short while later whilst informing me that she'd been giving out BJ's to several of her 'friends'. that was quite a while ago. Thankfully I have been married for 9 years, and am out of that game for good!

Not dumped
But dumping. I'd never dumped anyone before, and i'd been going out with her a year & fallen for someone else (hadn't done anything though). The fact that I was a teenage mumbling mess made everything very messy. on, Then i had to give her a kitten which i had gotten her as a valentine's present (after the fact) before i realised i was going to dump her, which i'd already gotten from a mate's cat's litter and could do nothing else with.

Dumped and then given a kitten: I can only imagine how confused she was. I know i was...

Talk about getting the hint.....
A few years ago my brother had been going out with a girl for a few months. Everything seemed to be fine and he went off on holiday for 3 weeks (on his own as it was October and she was busy). When he came back he called her and found out that she'd got married to someone else in his absence!? (To someone she'd met while he was away!)

Oh yeah, another one..
Sister dumped her boyfriend on the day after boxing day. Her birthday is on boxing day. Thus, she dumped him after getting presents worth about £300 pounds from him. And he loved her. So much.


The bitch.

Ps. Tomsk, that's really horrid! These stories aren't happy like the other ones... they make me sad! Like this - =(

That wasn't a Paul B was it? The same thing happened to someone I know if not. Although i gather there may have been a glass and a fork left as well.

loads of times
but much worse was the time when I tried to dump this girl Susan I'd gone out with for a couple of months, and she wouldn't believe me for about FIVE YEARS. I'd see her in the street and she'd be on about how we were 'supposed to be together' - I think she only got the message when I got married. At least she stopped then I s'pose. Actually I think she might have just moved away. She's probably stalking me on the interweb or something and one day she'll turn up on my door in a negligee wielding a chainsaw.

in a life littered with ex's

HELP

Although I wasnt strictly dumped
I was due to go out with this girl the following week after this happened (needless to say it never happened)
Basically I was working in the bar in a club, and went to go chat to her and her mates on my break. I sat down, chatted to her, started talking to her friend Kate, then turned around to find her snogging her allegedy ex-boyfriend. while I was sat next to her.

A story my friend has repeated about his friend's friend countless times.
This lad (cannot remember his name, let's call him Sean) had been going out with this lass called Natalie for several months. They came close to splitting up quite a lot but always got back together again stronger than before. Now one day after school, Sean decides to end it. He tells Natalie and she gets all tearful. Now he walks off to catch the bus home (this was all happening at school, by the way). Now she reallises he's disappearing and starts to run off after the bus. According to my friend it was "like something out of a romance film. Dead loving etc.". As she charged after the bus, one of her friends appears and shouts something so legendary that even I, who has never met Natalie or "Sean" (in fact I only know two people who were on the scene) know it. In the best whiny east midlands schoolgirl voice you can do came the cry.

"NATALIE! YOU'VE GOT NETBALL!"

She is now known to all that don't know her as "Netball Nat".

sounds like a cliché but I swear it's true
An ex-colleague of mine got home one evening and found all of his worldly possessions packed into boxes and another one of our colleagues watching TV. His (ex?) girlfriend had gone out for the night, leaving the two romeos to straighten things out.

weeeeellll
after drinking alot to get dutch courage (maybe a little too much) I squared up to my (soon to be ex) girlfriend and I opened my mouth to say.......
"I dont think we should see each other any more" but the words seemed to be coming out of her mouth not mine. I suddenly realised she had jsut dumped me...when I was going to dump her.. unfortunatelly I laughed very loud about this (darn dutch bravery) which seemingly was the wrong thing to do as she ran off crying.

Leeds 2000
The last day, sunday... She's really quiet and I ask why... She says 'lets go back to the tent' then tells me its over... at the bloody festival! It was amicable and we ended up watching Oasis, half in tears.

In a police station,
in Northern Ireland, after a two day search, during a manic episode and three days before she escaped from the secure psychiatric unit and turned up on the doorstep in her pyjamas.

Still get the nightsweats over that one.

To quote my hopefully soon to be ex-wife, "It's not so much I've been sleeping with another man, more sort of....men...oh and you need to go to the STD clinic."

the one time i got dumped,
instead of the usual "it's not you, it's me" thing, and "we can still be friends"
i was basically told that i was a useless, pathetic fuck and she never wanted to talk to me again.
it was for the best, i only went out with her for a dare.

Text which inadvertantly said so.. on the lines of "i'm so sorry etc etc"
and i was like "y'what!?" and she was like "for fuck's sake, i'm trying to dump you here"

not good. no.

oh yeah, and it was about 10 minutes before i was going to ask if she wanted to go out somewhere.

oh yeah, and she later went on a date with my mortal enemy.

I'm obviously far too adorable*
to have been dumped spectacularly.
But an acquaintance of mine was once "dumped" by waking up at a festival to the noises of his missus shagging a spaniard in the next tent.

Someone I used to work with arrived home from the office to find that his wife had arranged for a removals firm to visit that day.

She left him with only his clothes and one (soiled) teaspoon.

Oh how we laughed...
