6 of the MOST Awkward Breakup Stories You Will Ever Read

Breaking up is hard to do, as this poor bunch found out.

It's never nice to end a relationship, whether you're on the receiving end or the one delivering the joyous news, but just thank your lucky stars that none of the below has ever happened to you mid "it's not you, it's me" chat.

Cheers, Reddit, for these:

1. Oooh na na, what's my name?

Woman that I had been involved with for, probably, two months found out that I had no idea of what her name was. We'd met at a party, we never went to her place so I couldn't check the mail.

Incident ended in her standing on a sidewalk in Denver screaming "What is my name? What is my fucking name?"

Awkward? Yeah, that reached the epitome of awkward break up.

And can we take a moment for the comment on this story:

"At least she didn't ask you what color her eyes were. That is the question of doom for me. I legitimately have no idea what anyone else's eye color is besides my own."

2. The feeling's mutual

"This conversation took place on the 5th of July at a Ruby's Diner in Southern California at 7:30 PM...

Me: So, today we've been together 3 months huh?

Her: Yup.

Me: What do you think...wanna shoot for 3 more?

Her: Nah.

Me: Yeah, I think I feel the same way..."

3. A Series Of Unfortunate Events

"One of my best mates introduced me to this girl, she seemed nice (sort of sugary sweet nice), and we started dating. After a couple of weeks I was kissing her goodnight and think I went for a sly arse grab or something, she stopped and said 'no, that's naughty'...this carried on every time I tried anything vaguely sexual. When it finally came to actually having sex (which was pretty dull) I only really saw her as a mate than anything, so it was pretty awkward.

She'd suggested going down to London for a weekend, I agreed, she booked trains and a hotel, and we went down - on the Friday night, met up with my cousin who lives down there, had a top time, good catch up and a few drinks etc. Got back to our hotel, got in bed and she wanted sex; I'd forgotten to get any condoms and didn't have one on me, she went a bit mad saying it was the guys job to do that and I should go to a chemist (at 2am), I couldn't be arsed so just argued then went to sleep. In the morning when I woke up, I broke up with her, and said only saw her as a friend.

Cue FLOODS of tears. Didn't have a clue what to do, it was Saturday morning, our train wasn't til the evening. So after about 2 hours of crying finally calmed her down. We were supposed to go out and meet her friends from uni later that afternoon, but I found a bar and stayed in there all day.

At the train station, her Mum comes to pick us up and her brother had come along for the ride too, so I got death stares all the way home along with "ahh it wasn't meant to be, you'll be great friends, you never know in the future" from her Mum.

Fast forward a couple of weeks later, I'm in the pub with original mate who set us up; she calls me a bastard (understandable) and says it's much worse than I first thought...turns out she'd had a boyfriend the year previous, and gone down to London with him...he broke up with her there. I'd done it not just on the same day, but in the SAME HOTEL. Couldn't help but laugh..."

4. The Missing

"Long story short, went to prom with this girl, told me she was going to the bathroom then she never came back and I was unable to find her all night."

5. The Valentine's Day Massacre

"After several months of dating I told this guy that I didn't want to see him anymore, but I guess I wasn't firm enough because I came home from work several days later on Valentines day to find he was waiting for me.

"Small town, didn't bother locking my doors. He had scattered rose petals all over, had cooked dinner & had drawn a bath, scattered with more rose petals. There were rose petals on the bed along with gifts including handcuffs and a blindfold.

"He was harmless, still is, he just really didn't get that I had broken up with him. I led him out to the front porch where I spelled it out quite clearly. Then I started locking my doors.
