Tell them he broke up with you through text as a joke and you ended it for good because you were over his childish games.'ĭo you have a story to sell? Get in touch with us at. I'd start being honest about the break-up with people. He took the joke too far and then got his a** dumped. That is so childish, and on your birthday? What the hell is wrong with him? So not only did he play a joke, but he ruined your birthday.'Īnd a third wrote: 'You totally dodged a bullet there if you ask me. He needs to grow up and you deserve better. He needs to learn 'Do stupid things, deal with the consequences'. One person said: 'That is not a funny 'prank'. He's angry, that I'd throw it all away like that, and that I'd 'lie' to our mutual friends.'Ĭommenters on the post were largely on the woman's side, as many of them said the prank idea her ex-boyfriend had wasn't funny, and that he should expect to 'deal with the consequences' of his actions. 'I've since told all our friends that he dumped me over text on my birthday and then tried to get me back by saying it was a birthday prank, which is making him angry because he says he never dumped me at all but everyone thinks he did. I said that I just wasn't interested in being with someone who'd dumped me over text, whether it was 'jUsT a pRaNk BrO' or not.

'I didn't buy it at first, and I was like 'You can't just change your mind about breaking up and make some s**t up.' He said it was seriously just a joke, and that he hadn't meant it to come off as a break-up text. She added: 'He thought it would be funny to send me a 'we need to talk' text and when I show up, take me on a fancy dinner on a boat, and out to an exclusive rooftop bar, and basically surprise me with a really good night. The woman's partner claimed he was expecting her to come over to talk so that he could surprise her with a fancy dinner date to celebrate her birthday, but she said she didn't believe him, and thought he was lying to cover his tracks after discovering he didn't actually want to break up with her. He was also upset I was ignoring his calls and texts and that I wasn't home when he came to my apartment that night.' 'When I actually did call my ex the next day, he was getting upset with me about how I didn't come by to talk,, get this. 'I met my friends for drinks, and had a long talk where I vented about how sudden it was, how it felt out of nowhere because we had plans to spend Thanksgiving and Christmas together with his family, how we were starting to talk about getting engaged, and how I wanted to unblock him and actually talk. 'My mum is dating a man I had a fling with - she has no idea and I'm uncomfortable' I left my copy of the keys on his table when I left. I got in my car and went to his house, knowing he'd still be at work, and I grabbed all my s**t. 'My boss came into the bathroom and found me crying, I said I'd just been dumped by text and it was my birthday too, and she gave me the rest of the day off work and told me to file it as sick leave, which was super kind of her.

'I was angry enough that I let my friend take my phone, so I wouldn't say anything I regretted, and she ended up just sending back 'k' and then blocking him. I had a cry with my work bestie in the bathroom, knowing that was pretty much a breakup text, and feeling hurt he'd drop it on me by text on my birthday at work. 'I replied to say 'talk about what?' and he said that he just didn't think things were working between us. Two weeks ago was my birthday, and I got a text at work asking me to come over to his after work because we 'needed to talk'. In a lot of ways we really clicked, but one point of conflict was that he always took jokes too far.

In a post on Reddit, she said: 'I'd been friends with Dan for like two years and we were together for three years.
