Hello, fellow Pandas. Most of us have probably been through a breakup at some point or another. Sometimes it's simple, quick, and easy, but there are times when there are tears, drama, and maybe even some anger.
Share with us some of the worst ways someone has broken up with you and how you reacted. Did they do it in a bad way? Did they ghost you? Did they cheat on you? Tell us down below and please be respectful and nice to each other!

I was visiting my friend abroad for the holidays, a few weeks before I left I met this really awesome guy and we hit it off, spent all our time together. While on the trip we agreed it would be best if I flew back earlier to spend the NYE with him. So I bought the super expensive last-minute ticket back, landed close to midnight and he was not at the airport to pick me up. Spent my New Years' Eve alone in the airport looking for him. Saw him after a few years in the street, he did not say a word.

Since the first week of my current/last relationship, my girlfriend adopted the process of relationship cycling - ending our relationship whenever a problem arose and blaming everything on me. She often used events that happened after we broke up as her reasons for breaking up.
Out of love, dedication and the suspicion that her mental health may not be as good as she claims it to be, I stuck by this girl. Throughout our entire relationship, any problem has caused her to leave me, with her telling me to never contact her again and blocking me on every channel of communication. This is then retracted by her telling me she loves me and 'didnt mean to leave me'. Communication is frustrating when you can't communicate.
I have grown to not take my partner's word seriously and this has had detrimental effects upon our relationship.
Ultimately, after experiencing a breakup at least once a month for over 12 months, I have been forced to confront her on the issue of relationship cycling and how we can get it out of our relationship. I tried prompting her to discuss it, with increasing frequency after she left me two weeks ago, only to be told 'dont ever contact me again'.
For someone who wants an intense, trusting and passionate relationship, she doesn't seem to understand that hitting the reset button is something that pushes us apart and makes our lives very difficult. She has refused to talk about it at every opportunity.
Are we together are we not? It's torture that nobody deserves. Ultimately, I will have to make my own decision, but it won't be in her favour.

Well let's see.... Both marriages ended because he (they) cheated and that was the worst of my adult life. The worst of my teenage years was when my boyfriend dumped me on my 17th birthday so he didn't have to buy me a present. But as they say success is the best revenge. All these years later, he has amounted to nothing, is a dead beat dad and I am successful and living my best life. He tried to come back years ago (we remained "friends" for a long time) and when I told him that his lifestyle wasn't ok with me, he called me a bitch and never talked to me again. Sorry - not sorry.

Getting sent the "we need to talk" and having him saying that "for three months ive been gathering up the courage to tell you that i miss being single and i would like our relationship to end" The worst part about it is that he ended up dating my friend about a week later.

Not sure this qualifies.
I was going through the standard mid life crises when I hit 40. I was dating a 19 year old girl. It was a pretty good relationship, I look young for my age and all her friends knew I was older but thought I was late 20's.
One weekend her parents came into town and I met them. Turns out I had 'dated' her Mom in college. I'd have to say that was one of the most awkward situations I've ever been in. And yeah, that put an abrupt halt to the relationship.

When you break up with the person or they break up with you and then you try to be friends with them but they just talk about all the bad stuff you did or didn't do and how you suck

My first boyfriend broke up with me on the phone, long-distance. I called up, looking for him when I hadn't heard from him for a few days. So, yeah, the break-up was on my dime, too.

WAY back in 1988, my high school boyfriend broke up with me at dinner on prom night. He drove me to the prom then ditched me to be with his friend and my best friend who were dating (my best friend also ditched me that night). I was left hanging out with the other "single" attending kids, who happened to be the LGBTQ of my school. It actually ended up being a fun night after all. But then one of my new found friends drove me home and we were in a car accident. A prom to never forget.

I hit a really low point just after COVID. I was struggling with my parents divorce and he was struggling with his parents divorce too. I felt like he was the o lot one I could really talk to. I sent him a simple hi I miss you. And got nothing for a few days which was fine I didn’t mind. But then it turned to two weeks with nothing. I also have anxiety though I didn’t know it at the time and freaked out that something had happened. Finally after three weeks of nothing over text just I’m breaking up with you. No explanation no nothing. I lost the only person I could talked to just as I was falling into the hole of anxiety and depression. It ruined me at the time because of everything else going on.

I broke up with someone by sending him a formal email that summed up our incompatibility and his apparent disinterest in me, the relationship, or moving things forward after 7 months, and his mother's manipulative meddling that he didn't seem to understand was a problem, and concluded it with "I considered our matters closed please do not contact me again." it was 2000 and I was 17 and didn't want to look at his face. He went to a different school and a friend told me he was despondent for several months. Well... make a girl feel appreciated and cared for and she won't dump you.

This was years ago...Valentine's Day he comes over to hang out, gets drunk with my brother, pukes all over my bathroom sink, and then passes out. The next morning he doesn't realize why I'm mad at him! I want to break up with him the next day but he breaks up with me over instant messaging. I'm now happily married with a wonderful kid and he's divorced.
