From a Redditor:
Girlfriend came into the room and told me it wasn't working out, and that we were over, before running out [of] the room crying.
I lay there stunned, unable to run after her due to the tubes in my chest. Yep, I was in hospital. My first stay in hospital. She came and dumped me in hospital.

(#3) When Everything Was Gone, They Thought Their Girlfriend Had Been Kidnapped
From a former Redditor:
I was 21, came home from work, and everything was gone. She left a milk crate, the tiny TV, a trash can, and the box spring to the mattress. I didn't actually know that she left me, so I called the cops and told them that someone stole everything, including my girlfriend.
I was pretty hysterical, but the 911 operator was able to calm me down and inform me that my girlfriend most likely left me.

(#4) Their Girlfriend Wrote A Song
From Redditor /u/beingDevisor:
My girlfriend of a year broke up with me by sending a video of herself singing a breakup SONG that she wrote. It included a background dancer of one of my good friends.
I was at a party at the time she sent it and foolishly played it aloud so all my good pals could hear it, and hear my heart break.
Definitely the worst.

(#5) He Ghosted Her During Surgery

[Got] back to work (we met as co-workers) and he was dating another girl we worked with.

(#6) He Stole Their Vacation Money
From Redditor /u/Thisisright344:
My now ex-boyfriend stole the money I thought we'd been saving for a vacation and ditched me the night before our anniversary. Three months of taking extra shifts gone to waste, as well as a three-year relationship.
Screw him though. This all happened two weeks ago and I've already started saving up for my own, d*****bag-free vacation.

(#7) All Along She Just Wanted His Brother
From Redditor /u/olinselot:

My brother had no idea and was just as pissed as I was.

(#9) They Were Dumped During A Game Of Hangman

A game of hangman. "I want to be single" was the phrase that I had to guess.
Needless to say, I cried while walking 3 miles home.

(#10) He Heard Another Man Over The Phone
From Redditor /u/lendergle:
Long-distance thing. Wasn't working, but we were too stupid to do anything about it. One morning I called her and while we were talking, it went like this:
Me: Is that your shower running?
Her: Uh, yeah. I was in the shower when you called.
Me: It just turned off.
Her: Yeah, I reached in and...
Distant male voice: Honey? do you know where I put my other shoe?
Me: Did you just do an impression of you as a man asking yourself where you put your other shoe?
Her: [Jerk]. click -
(#11) She Got Dumped On Her Birthday

-
(#12) She Made Out With Someone Right In Front Of Him
From a former Redditor:
I was with one girl who ended it by making out with another guy right in front of me at a club. Pretty sure she intentionally made sure I saw it because she was too scared to break up with me like a decent person, but I never talked to her again after that, so I’m not entirely sure.

(#13) The Breakup Came Right After Tonsil Surgery
From Redditor /u/2_Ducks_in_a_Handbag:
I was in 11th grade. I had just got my tonsils out. That hurts by itself. But the medicine they gave me made me throw up, and that made my mouth hurt even worse...
So my awesome grandma, who was taking me home from the hospital, sees that I'm having one of the worst days of my life, and takes me to get an ice cold smoothie to help my mouth. I get my smoothie and take the first drink. Sooo good. And then I get a text.
It was my awesome girlfriend. But this wasn't an awesome text. She told me... over text... that she was leaving me for this other guy and that she never wants to talk to me again. So out of the blue. Or maybe I'm just oblivious. Either way I couldn't truly enjoy my smoothie and my bad day got worse.

(#14) They Called To Break Up Right Before Class
From a Redditor:
[After a] year and a half (and living together), [they] broke up with me over the phone as I was walking into the first class of my last semester of college. I cried the entire class. Awkward for everyone.
Later, talking to my professor, the exact same thing happened to her when she was in college. Which is why she didn't call on me the first day and waited until after class to hand me a syllabus and such. She was amazing.

(#15) She Dumped Them Through A Therapist
From Redditor /u/technicallywriting:
Back in college I had a girlfriend break up with me through my therapist. Came to therapy and was told by the therapist my GF didn't want to see me anymore.
I told the therapist how unprofessional this was... then broke up with my therapist.
-
(#16) She Messed Up Their Tattoo
From a Redditor:
She was a tattoo artist. Just added but didn't finish a new part to my sleeve. Then she broke up with me two days later by changing her Facebook relationship status.
I don't want any other artist to have to finish her piece. She f*cked up a lot of lines, which is weird because she had a solid portfolio. so I'm currently having it lasered down to get a cover up. It sucks seeing the tattoo everyday, but I'm stoked to get the cover up done. Learned a lot here.
-
(#17) They Broke Up In The Middle Of A Movie
From Redditor /u/meeeehhhhhhh:
I'm on the other side of this. I went over to my boyfriend's house to break up with him, but I'm so nonconfrontational that I couldn't figure out how to do it, and when he asked if I wanted to watch a movie, I agreed. He put on The Prestige and paused it about halfway through and asked what was wrong, so I said it was over.
For whatever reason, we still wound up finishing the movie.
