Most of us ladies like to joke around about what jerks guys can be,
but sometimes a man can outdo even our lowest expectations.These
legendary stories of crappy boy behavior are usually reserved for
evenings commiserating over cocktails or ice cream (or both). So,
what a better topic for the ladies of Frangela to dish about in
their dating guide.
First, let's hear what the awesome duo -- Frances Callier and
Angela V. Shelton -- have to say:
OK, so those are pretty terrible. But we surveyed the editors here
at Shine, and discovered a few doozies of our own. There's the
guy who called one of our ladies by another girl's name...in a
fight! And then there's the old standby of the man who borrowed
money and never paid it back. And, of course, there are the ones
who cheat. But one dude not only cheated; he admitted to being in
an open relationship with another woman cross-country after dating
for four months. Ugly.
Now, we open it up to you ladies of Shine. What's the jerkiest
thing a guy has ever done to you? And don't just tell us that
he cheated, because -- while that's certainly awful -- tell us
why his cheating was the worst or the worst. And believe us, as we
read these comments, we'll be digging in to the Haagen Dazs.

Report AbuseHmmmm, must be the time by beau and I were at the mall and got into an arguement. He went to get the car and left, leaving me there with no ride home and no money to call my folks. Or could be the time he was picking me up from work and saw me talking with one of the stock guys and came into the store yelling and screaming that i was sleeping with all of the men at the store and I got fired. The list goes ON and ON!!

Report AbuseWhen I was young one time some guy had his friend trick me (after he dumped me and after he tried to get me to pay like $2,000 he owed) by telling me from the guy's email address that he had been arrested for something really serious and would be in jail for like five years minimum. I wrote his parents, telling them I was sorry to hear the news. His dad wrote back saying that, like everyone that came into contact with his son, that I had been duped, and he apologized on behalf of his cruddy son. I sure felt dumb!
Ooh, or there was the guy who I dated for two years (long distance after he joined the navy) was cheating on me for a girl and then had her move in with him. Then he dumped me while he was AT WORK (I guess he couldn't do it at home because she would find out he had a girlfriend the whole time, heh heh). I only found out like a week later when I tried to call his apartment and she picked up what the REAL reason was that he broke up with me.
So glad I'm older and wiser now. Oh, the crazy boys I met when I was under 20.

Report AbuseHow about this: I dated a guy whose best friend left me high and dry a couple of months prior (as in didn't have the cojones to actually break up with me, so just stopped calling, and it was a serious relationship). I didn't want to date the friend, but he pressured and pushed and told me he was in love with me already, yada, yada, yada. So after a month of this, I gave in. My birthday was coming up, and he promised me a sushi dinner and to take me out and show me a good time. My birthday was on a Monday. He got paid the Friday prior. Monday comes around, no phone call or anything from him (he did call me from a bar at midnight to wish me happy birthday). Five o'clock rolls around, still no call. I call him. "I'm sorry babe, I have no money". Turns out he spent all his money on strippers and drinks for his friends at the strip club. So a couple of my guy friends took me out to dinner, I met up with my friends for drinks, and wouldn't let him give me my birthday present until two weeks later...when I decided to talk to him again. Needless to say, I didn't keep him long...

Report AbuseI have talked to a few guys and they have all done jerkish things but the most selfish and jerkish thing a guy can do is play your heart like its a game! Especially when they lead you on like they really do care for you and you know that they arent lying about caring but when they say stuff like well we should stay friends or just have an open relationship because college is going to separate us....i mean if your done then your done just spare me the pain i mean its bad enough to have to see their face every day and its even harder when their your best friend and you just cant let them go.....its bad when his parents say that you deserve better.... I love him so much and hes the only person iv ever loved like in a romantic way and i know they say if you love something that much let it go and if it comes back then it was yours all along....well i cant let go if you wont let me...

Report AbuseYou will all love this one! My ex and I have been broken up for over two years now. He frequently calls to see if I will come back and I have moved on and he has been dating other people as well. I always tell him no. We were together for 5 years when we broke up. Over this past weekend, I get a phone call from a creepy dad on my son's soccer team, out of the blue, while I was at dinner with my current boyfriend. Come to find out, my ex decided he was really mad at me last week and created an online dating profile of me, including picture. This soccer dad emailed saying he knew me and the two of them email back and forth. The whole time, soccer dad thinks it's me, and is told to call me anytime! Last night my ex decided it was a pretty horrible thing he did and called and confessed to me. I then had to call soccer dad and tell him what happened. Talk about the need to grow up!!!

Report Abusei was dating this guy for 6 months. we broke up then re-connected about a year later. at first we were friends then things started getting serious. he never officially made me his girlfriend but it was like i was. then he started school and told me that he didnt want a girlfriend. and that he wanted me to wait for him till he got out of school. so i did for awhile. things were once again getting serious and then things changed and i told him that we should just stay friends or go our seperate ways and all he said was ok. and he always said that he cared about me more than i did him. that i was the girl for him, yada yada yada....needless to say hes out of my life for good!!!!

Report AbuseOMG, how could I forget spending $500 on a one of a kind prom dress and half the day getting ready, and no date, no call---nothing. Stood up on my senior prom night. That one stung for a while afterwards.

Report AbuseHow about telling me on Valentine's day that he has another girlfriend. But wait it gets better, but the good part is, that he wants to dump her and just be with me.
Well if he wanted that then why were we together like almost a year before he decided to make a choice! I had no idea about the other woman he had been seeing for 3 years.
Needless to say, I broke up with him then and there.
