why did you leave your last relationship?

[MoseyWalker]

?

[SeattleGirl]

1. Because he was a narcissistic asshole who couldn't keep his

zipper zipped, among other things. May he rot in hell.

[Rosco T.]

2. {{{hugs}}}

[SeattleGirl]

4. Thanks.

Been quite awhile since I got myself out of it, and I am so glad I did.

[MoseyWalker]

9. I have a pair of painting pants

that I use to paint the house, inside and out.

The zipper broke, and I continue to use the pants because they have been good to me.

If a zipper broke on another pair of pants that has a bad history, they are history!

[SeattleGirl]

12. His zippers were in good working condition.

It was HIM who was out of whack. And now, he's history.

3. he fooled around

and lied when i asked him about it.

5. The last relationship

I was dumped. "I don't have any time for you". Ok. It wasn't anything serious, by any means. Only together for a few months, and increasingly, didn't think he was for me. Before I finally came to my conclusion, the above happened.

Fast forward, a number of months (more than 6) later of no contact, then a phone call, out of the blue (a couple of weeks ago, as a matter of fact).

"Hey, how are you? I'm not too busy anymore. Do you want to get together again?"

:wtf:

I don't know whether it was the height of supreme arrogance or naivete. :shrug:

7. He was an idiot to let you get away

So therefore not good enough for you imho :)

[u4ic]

14. I would have broken up with him fairly soon

He had a bit of a cold side - very much so, but not toward me - that definitely raised some flags. A gutless and nasty remark about his relative who was dying young (18!) made me realize...wow, I don't respect this guy. I can respect a couple of things about him, but not him, fully.

Thanks, sweetie. You'll have to vet out all my new prospective partners! :loveya:

[Guava Jelly]

15. Yes you do! and I will :o)

And I know you to be a really sweet and descent person Who deserves the best!
Hell you were so wonderful to me when i needed a friend. :loveya:
I hope Mr Right comes riding in on one of these

(I need to learn how ta ride one of these things) :7

[BelleCarolinaPeridot]

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

10. Coke? Glad you got out of it.

I don't want to be around anyone who uses that stuff.

[idgiehkt]

11. when you start having to call the cops on your S.O.

things aren't going so well, lol.

[SeattleGirl]

13. No kidding!

Good for you for getting out!

[Omphaloskepsis]

18. I had a emotional freak-out. I left town in the middle of the night.

And I didn't tell anyone where I went. I just left. My roommate had a bitchin' garage sale. I came back about nine months later to a married girlfriend and a very pissed off family.

[undeterred]

20. he was afraid to go to the humane society

because the animals there are dangerous :rofl:

[xchrom]

21. cause over time he revealed that he was nuts.

really nutty people can hide that stuff pretty good.

no drama -- just figuring out there were some serious, serious issues.

[donheld]

22. he had a small penis

:D

[cwydro]

23. She was married.

:spank:

[Debbi801]

24. He was a self medicating bi-polar sociopath that liked to beat up women.

[NNadir]

28. Other than that, how did you like the play Mrs. Lincoln?

[lildreamer316]

25. Ummm....

...he died.

[gr8dane_daddy]

26. In all honesty...

she was a neocon nutcase with a alcohol problem...the type that adored limpballs, insannity, and <grrr..> savage. We used to get into fights whenever I listened to Air America...she couldn't handle the truth. Got real old, real quick!

[NNadir]

27. It was long, long, long time ago, but she was a lesbian.

I was a straight guy. She wanted to "try it out," and I was the trial.

I think her position in business and in he family had something to do with such a trial. I knew, of course, but otherwise she was pretty much in the closet.

I really liked her, but of course it didn't work out.

[emmajane67]

29. Found out he had a pregnant girlfriend.

Long story, kid wasn't his, neither was the other kid she had while they were together he was trying to do the honourable thing and stay with her, which is fine, what wasn't fine was failing to mention ANY of this to me while I proceeded to fall for him, big time.

Obviously I broke it off as soon as I found out.

30. Jealousy

She would constantly accuse me of wanting to or having slept with a male friend of mine, even though she and I were in a monogamous relationship for over 2 years (she is lesbian, I'm bi). Every month, it would be the same argument. Finally I told her, "We have this discussion one more time, that's it. I'm done." She decided to have that discussion again on New Year's Eve, of all days. I do believe that part of it was because she was a recovering alcoholic who still had a lot of issues to work through.

What's really sad is that she was a very close friend of mine before we started dating. After we broke up, she hasn't spoken to me since. She threw away 25 years of knowing someone and being friends over irrational jealousy. And no, I never did cheat on her with a man or another woman.

31. Because I realized that our world views were incompatible

on a fundamental level and that our likes and dislikes were different enough that one of us would always be left behind or grudgingly compromising. The attraction wasn't strong enough to overcome these obstacles.

[LeftyMom]

32. I fell in love with somebody else and realized what I'd been missing. nt
