Let the Worst Breakup Stories Ever begin!
Much like the bad dating story, I’m limited in my bad break-up stories. I had one bad break-up, but to be honest, the actual relationship was worse than the break-up. I’m sure I didn’t think that at the time, but in hindsight, it was the best thing ever.
However, I know some of my followers have some good stories, so let’s get them out there! And read Courtney’s book!

Hi Amanda,
Thank you for hosting my Worst Breakup Ever contest! I’ll get the ball rolling by sharing one of my terrible breakups.
10 months after my fiance’ proposed to me, he told me that he had entered therapy and discovered that he had never loved anyone: including me. We were 12 weeks from our wedding date and I had the dress, the bridesmaids, etc.. He no longer wanted to marry me, but wanted to continue dating: he wanted his new employers to see him at firm functions with a date, as he felt that this would increase his options of getting an offer of permanent employment from this firm. There was no promise of when or if, we would ever marry. I had realized a few months earlier that he had all the signs of a control-freak monster, as he had started telling me how I should dress– so this just made it easier for me: I broke-up with him on the spot. He wanted the ring back and his mom (who had insisted that she would wear a full-length white ballroom gown to the wedding), wanted the “diamond” (cubic zirconia) chip earrings back that she had given me. He also wanted back every piece of furniture and household cooking item that he had ever given me. Later, as I was getting my dress altered for my wedding to the wonderful man who is my husband, a friend told me “you got a better guy and you got a better ring.” But to cap things off, not long after I married my husband, control-freak guy contacted me and asked me for work.
