Acceptance is a huge part of unconditional romantic love. It’s about embracing a partner’s imperfections and tolerating certain traits that their families and friends may be turned off by.
However, it’s another thing to put up with disgustingly reprehensible behavior, something these women endured with their boyfriends. They were left so revolted that they had to share the hell they went through in this Reddit thread.
From questionable, unhygienic practices to having bigoted beliefs, these actions are downright unforgivable. Many of these stories are quite nasty, so proceed with caution.

My first boyfriend asked for my passwords as a "trust exercise," and then regularly checked my email and every email that used it as a recovery as well as all of my accounts, dms, etc. behind my back. He looked through every correspondence I had with anyone I've ever been friends with and then hunted down all their social media to stalk them. I found out when he confessed it to me cause I was naive and never, ever expected him to do something like that.
When I broke up with him he deleted all of my accounts and stole what he couldn't, even selling my steam account worth hundreds of dollars to someone. He doxxed me on 4chan and tried to convince people to hunt me down (I found my full name in a thread, but fortunately people told him to suck it up and get lost.) I had changed my passwords but this was before sites logged out all sessions when the password changed so he still had access to them no matter what I did.
Edit: For those blaming me for giving him my password--fair enough. But I want to emphasize that I was young, this was my first relationship, and I had never had anyone hurt me to this degree. I am a kind person, and when I was younger it was very difficult for me to comprehend that some people weren't. I loved my ex in every other aspect and had no reason to think he would ever hurt me, even if we broke up. That said I definitely learned my lesson.
I also wanted to clarify that I've healed from this, and I'm okay. I really appreciate all the supportive comments. Time really does heal and I barely think about this whole event anymore.

He NEVER washes his hair or scalp because he thinks it causes hair loss. Also uses all natural deodorant that doesn’t work and lets his nails grow really long before cutting them. He was really hot but had the worst hygiene out of anyone I have ever met. It’s like he would shower and you could still smell the BO on him 🤢
Edit: okay so since everyone is asking: I didn’t notice it right away because he did his best to hide it. We started dating in the summer and he worked a job that would cause him to sweat a lot, so at first the BO was more of a benefit of the doubt. First time we spent the night together, he left me in his room to go shower. Which I thought was weird, but again, it was summer. So I actually appreciated it. Then after that, we ended up in the shower together most of the time. We worked opposite schedules so it was normal for him to shower immediately once he got home. He wore the same clothes over and over again, and even when washed, they still could have used a breather in between wears. I’m a foot shorter than he is so I wasn’t in close contact with his head to begin with. He didn’t tell me he didn’t wash his hair until months into our relationship. And by not wash, I mean he only rinsed his hair, if that. He would not use shampoo or conditioner. I brought things up as gently as I could because I didn’t want to hurt his feelings (at first, once we broke up, I let him have it). He spent all of his time on his physical appearance ie abs for days but was definitely lazy about his hygiene. I’m sorry to say, that we were together for two years because I thought I could “fix” it. I thought he was a great guy (he isn’t but that’s a different story) so I gave him a lot of slack. Yes because he was hot, but also because at the time I genuinely thought he was a good person. He turned out to be the trash that he smelled like all along.

With my ex, after 8 years, I learned he struggled to tell the difference between a solid and a gas.
I found out after noticing a large, linear brown stain on the bedsheets where he had sat 10 minutes before whilst dressing.
To my horror, I had to smell it to work out what I was, my mind couldn't comprehend someone actually leaving skid marks on bedsheets.

After a few months dating ex boyfriend started farting 24/7 in front of me as a fun joke.
farted while i was eating, farted while we hugged, one time he farted so much while i was having dinner he had to go fart in the balcony.
also his feet smelled so bad he stenched his own sofa and it had a permanent feet smell.
idk girls, you never know who you are dating until you see how they live.

He is a darling and I love him, but he sweats on the back of his legs and then leaves like, sweaty prints on the toilet seat. Just leaves 'em. Also, he sometimes twirls up a receipt or a napkin and sticks it up his nose to make himself sneeze. This wouldn't be so bad if he didn't occasionally use metal objects (paper clips, etc.) and if he didn't keep them around for like weeks.
I am so lucky, these things are tiny and easy to overlook. He's generally a clean person. Always smells good.

He cheated on me many times throughout our relationship, and I also found out that he cheated and sent pictures of his... to different boys, so I think he wasn’t 100% straight lol.
Oh, and he also wanted to hide from his friends the fact that one of the girls he was flirting with was 16 (he’s 20)
and I forgot to mention that he broke up with me (yes, he did) just two days after my little sister’s funeral.
bruh.

Hiding 10s of thousands worth of debt. When I would have helped him when it was just a few thousand... He hid this for like 7 years.

I went through his phone. He had sent a text to his buddy, completely unprompted, "I haven't brushed my teeth in months"
I believe he was telling the truth, never kissed him again after that.

My ex never used soap when washing in the shower. I never noticed because I dont particularly enjoy showering with partners.
I assumed he would clean himself in the shower because...thats what you do. I noticed when I bought him a really fancy mens body wash. It was never touched. I asked him one day if he didnt like the smell, and he just plainly replied he doesnt use soap. I was flabbergasted. All this time in the shower he would just rinse in the water and brush his teeth after, and put deodorant on.
Whats *crazy* is he NEVER smelled bad, or like BO, or anything bad "down there". Idk how. But, it deff changed a lot of things for me.
There were a lot of reasons leading to why we broke up & that helped lmfao.

He lied to me that he was “about to go to jail” for a whole year til the day came he when got “into prison.” That was just his excuse to dump me when he was done with me. He never went to jail. It was all a lie.
