11 Times Grey's Anatomy broke Your Heart

Blame Shonda Rhimes for the heartbreak

11 Times Grey's Anatomy broke Your Heart

Grey's Anatomy is known to be an intense show. Shonda Rhimes is no joke, she has no problem breaking her audience's hearts. If you watched Grey's Anatomy from the start, you are probably dead inside. Grey's anatomy has taken my heart and stomped on it several times. Multiple great characters have died or left or even just had their heart broken; it makes you cry watching all of this. Here are 11 of the most heart breaking moments of Grey's Anatomy though there is many more.

1. When You finally find out what was wrong with Derek

In Season 1, Derek seemed perfect, he and Meredith were finally moving forward together. But it always felt like Derek was hiding something or holding back. When Addison Shepherd rolled into town, it finally all made sense. Derek was married.

2. Meredith told Derek to choose her

Meredith didn't usually put herself out there but when Addison came back into the picture, she told (almost begged) Derek to choose her, to love her, but he didn't. Derek went back to Addison.

3. Denny Dies

Denny had just gotten a new heart, he just proposed to Izzy; everything was falling to place. Izzy was going to be Dr. Izzy Duquette and everything was so happy until Denny died an hour later.

4. The homemade bomb

Meredith had a feeling that something bad was going to happen but her friends made her leave the house. Than Meredith had her hands all over a bomb; some days are better spent in bed.

5. Mr. O'Malley died

That entire episode was just heartbreaking especially when Christina shared about her own experience being in "the dead dad club".

6. When you realized who John Doe was

This moment killed me and I think everyone else. Unlike everyone else who died in the show like Lexie, Mark, Derek, etc. George never had a proper Goodbye to his family.

7. Lexie died

Lexie Grey was the less dark and twisty Grey. She was upbeat and dorky, she might of finally been able to be with Mark Sloane until the plane crash. When Mark and Lexie talked about the future they could have together was too much to bare at the time.

8. Mark died

Oh poor Mark. We watched Mark change from a womanizer into a loving father who wanted commitment. And when he said he'll get to be with Lexie; that moment ruined me.

9. When Susan died


Susan was so sweet, she wanted and tried to welcome Meredith into the family. One of the most heartbreaking moments was when Thatcher slapped Meredith blaming her for Susan's death.

10. When Burke left Cristina at the alter

Burke never showed up to his wedding to Cristina Yang realizing he made her change. When Cristina had to be cut out of her wedding dress, you knew it was all over.

11. When Derek died

Derek Shepherd's death was unexpected. You knew there wasn't going to be a miracle surgery or some way to fix Derek. The surgeon that you fell hopelessly in love with was gone. You felt like there was no hope.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
