People tell: what was the saddest reason you dumped someone?
Aaah Reddit, you never disappoint. I learn, laugh, and it's truly a top-notch pastime. Especially if you're as much of an insomniac as I am. Now I'm subscribed to about 80 subreddits; whenever I just want to read something nice, I always check out AskReddit. Sometimes funny things, sometimes striking things, and often relationship-related questions. Like this one: ‘What was the pettiest reason you refused to date someone?’ LOOK. There are definitely some delightful answers in there, right? Yessiree. And I've lined up the funniest ones for you.
‘The bottom of my new car kept scraping against the steep little road from the house to the main road. After the fourth time trying carefully and still scraping it, I was done.‘
‘She didn’t know that foxes were real animals. She thought they were mythical creatures and only existed in movies.’
‘A guy on a dating app said he didn’t want to date me because I didn’t like oysters.’
‘Someone refused to date me because it was ‘weird that I didn’t have Instagram’…’
‘Every Word In Every Message He Sent Was In Capital Letters. Believe Me, That Got VERY Annoying VERY Quickly.’
‘Every time I touched her, I smelled egg. When we held hands: egg… When I hugged her, my shirt smelled like egg… The weirdest part was that she herself didn’t smell like egg at all. But when I cut it off, the egg smell stopped too. So yeah.’
‘She lived on the other side of the bridge and I hated crossing the bridge.’
‘Every message, without exception, she ended with ‘…’ I really couldn’t stand that.’
‘He tried to say what I wanted to say… As in, at the same time. He would then start silently talking along and gradually get louder. I would stop talking and start again. He just kept talking along.’
‘Her nostrils were bizarrely small. WTF.’
‘He was so bad at a trivia game we were playing. Like really, really bad. As if it was his first day on earth and the aliens hadn’t briefed him properly.’
‘I didn’t feel like driving to that part of town anymore because there was always traffic there.’
‘He was really EXTREMELY allergic to peanuts. I eat peanut butter almost every day and I really don’t want to give that up just like that.’
‘His name was Mario and he was a plumber. I just couldn’t.’
‘When I found out that he thought lemons were unripe oranges.’
‘Her best friend had an incredibly annoying voice.’
‘We went to the movies for our first date. This guy… Instead of just picking up his drink and bringing the straw to his mouth, he put his hands on his knees, eyes on the screen, and leaned forward towards the drink while searching for the straw with his mouth, which was bent sideways. Weirdest. Shit. Ever.’
