OK, so if we are life twins, you have probably been screwed over somehow, some way by every guy you’ve ever had a conversation with. That includes first-time encounters, where maybe they’ve thrown up on you, or even if that conversation leads to months of “talking” aka what we define as a relationship nowadays. Well, I can assure you, you have me and the rest of these girls who are victims to the same curse of falling for boys and not men. You are not alone. So let's embrace these funny, true, and anonymous stories below and learn a lesson from each. Let’s make a promise to never let these boys or anyone close to that same level of species, screw us over again.
1. “One night, me and the guy I was talking to went out for drinks and returned home and went to bed. Might I add, it was finals week, which was a decision we should not have even done in the first place. I wake up to my room smelling like a strong scent of urine, only later to find my MacBook Air drenched in pee, thirty minutes prior to my final. The rest of my day consisted of me and my gay best friend venturing to the Apple Store to find the guy’s father purchasing me a brand new MacBook Air — this was the first time I met his family as well.”

Lesson learned: Please make sure that the guy you are talking to does not pee the bed.
2. “I talked to a guy for a couple months and he wanted me to come visit him in Florida. I bought my ticket and he bought the hotel for the weekend. After I explained to him, I wanted to take things slow, which did not include sex on our first couple outing, he was a complete asshole and never spoke to me again.”
Lesson learned: All guys want the same thing and not having sex does not ensure your standards (in their mind), but instead makes you seem like a prude. Respect yourself ladies.
3. “One day, while hanging out with my long-term boyfriend, I saw the tinder app on his phone. I confronted him about it, but he assured me he downloaded it solely because his friends did as well. He then proceeded to delete the app in front of me. However, a week later when I was with my girlfriends who were on Tinder, they came across him. I told them to match to see if he would respond, and sure enough, he did. Safe to say I said swerve.”
Lesson learned: Social media is one of the silent killers in relationships. The millennial generation is obsessed with apps and meeting people from all over the world. However, they also create a new leeway in this game we call love, which eventually never turns out to be positive. Whether it be Snapchat, Tinder, or now even Bumble, trying something out to say you’ve used the app before, does not work when you are in a committed relationship.
4. “My freshman year sorority formal, I had a major crush on my date. At the after party he ended up hooking up with some random girl in the back of his beamer. The shakiness made the car alarm go off, which led me to see why, but instead I only saw his bare ass and the girl who ruined my formal. I proceeded to bang on the window while yelling very loudly.”
Lesson learned: Crushes sometimes legit crush your heart. At least, she wasn’t the one who mooned the entire formal, though — YGG.
5. “On NYE after excessive drinking, my boyfriend left me to go hang out with his mistress, while I was being taken care of by my friend. I later found out the next day who the girl was when we went to hang out with his group of friends as he refused to talk to me and was up her ass.”
Lesson learned: New Year’s Eve is overrated to the same extent that long distance relationships are. Trust no one.
6. “I’d been head over heels for this musician-esque dude for years. He finally expressed interest in me after I guided him through feeling hopeless after a breakup. As I find, all women end up doing — the first mistake there. He convinced me to make the two-hour drive to see him. After making the commute and watching him perform, he came up to me and said he had to leave and we didn’t even hang out after. Hence, I wasted my entire day stressed tf out for nothing.”
Lesson learned: If bae isn’t going to bring you backstage, don’t waste your time.
7. “After talking to a guy for a few months, and still not DTRing, I went to his house for a party- as I did every weekend. Gross to think I was a groupie. After having a conversation that night, I found out, in his drunk emotions, he likes me so much and wants to be with me. Yet, he was uncontrollably crying. I was confused as to why this was upsetting, but only to hear he gave up “so much” for me. That “so much” was another girl he had been talking to the entire time we were. She is now in the same sorority as me.”
Lesson learned: When a guy starts crying and there hasn’t been a death in the family, walk away.
8. “One time, I hooking up with my boyfriend at the time on his front porch- adventurous I know. All of the sudden, I saw a bright flash that happened to be him taking a pic of me in this vulnerable state. I reached to grab his phone, but he had already sent it to his group of friends. Safe to say, I never spoke to him ever again- but didn’t regret this embarrassment because he’s hot AF.”
Lesson learned: Kim Kardashian was the only person to be famous from a sex tape.
9. “After finally letting my guard down after a getaway weekend, I vulnerably allowed myself to get into a relationship with an old college friend. Only to find out, while I’m in one state and he’s still at school (for the sixth year LOL — great catch I know), he is randomly making out with freshmen instead of talking to me. This was confirmed after one of my sisters texted me a photo. I proceeded to send it back to him, leading to me deleting him off of every social media.”
Lesson learned: Freshmen girls are thirsty AF and once again this is another case of long distance relationships never working out.
10. “I fell for the typical UNCG frat star, or lack thereof, my freshman year. He was my everything, my best friend, and all of my firsts. After a mountain weekend gone bad, which resulted in me being shunned from my parents, I did not hear from him for an entire week, until finals. The text consisted of him breaking things off with me, only to find out at his fraternity’s party the next night, he was all over the fraternity groupie who had been passed around all semester. Safe to say they only lasted a week.”
Lesson learned: All frat boys are boys — aka the work “man” was not used. And, no that is not a typo.
See ladies, I told you, you are not alone. Feel free to comment your most embarrassing story when you were screwed over, below!
