dating fails

Breakups suck. It's never fun to end things with someone, and it especially blows to get dumped yourself. Unfortunately, breakups are an inevitable part of life, and if you want to fall in love, heartbreak is a risk you gotta take. But even if your relationship does end, it doesn't mean you can't have a little fun in the process, particularly if the ex in question is a bit of an a-hole. Instagram account To The Guys I've Dated has got your back when it comes to helping you get the closure you need after a breakup. They post funny and real letters of disappointment from girls to their "exes", allowing them to publically shame any men who have let them down. 

One-night stands can be a whole lot of fun...until the person overstays their welcome, and sometimes you have to get creative in order to go about your day! We have teamed up with dating blog The Singer Society to bring you eight stories of how people were able to get rid of their one-night stands! Have a bad date story? Submit it here!

Almost every person has been on or will go on a bad date at some point in their life. I believe that awkward dates are a natural part of life, much like gravity and sunset. If you've done well enough to avoid one until now, I commend you. Honestly, you have dodged one of life's greatest bullets. But if you have a plethora of lousy date tales to tell, then welcome to the club. It's a magical place. Another Valentines Day has just come and gone, and if, like me, you were sat at home without a valentine, then these tweets about people's 'Weird, uncomfortable, funny, awkward, and ultimately entertaining' bad dates, will make you feel better about being single.

If you've ever been wronged by a man you're dating—and let's be real, which woman hasn't—then you might have felt tempted to send them a scathing text afterward expressing your disappointment. Especially on Valentine's Day. But if you have good friends who care about you, they will have hopefully stopped you from doing so, leaving you with a little of your pride left intact. But now, thanks to the Instagram account To The Guys I've Dated, you can kind of send that text to him without sacrificing your dignity. The account helps women get the closure they need by publishing open letters women have written to the disappointing men they've dated (or kind of dated).

Recently, we covered the eight profile pics women really need to stop using on dating apps. From duck face selfies to pictures with exotic animals, they're all as bad as each other. But nothing, and I mean nothing, can prepare you for the ridiculously weird profile pictures that Russians use on dating sites. As you scroll through these pictures, you'll cringe on behalf of the people posting them, and feel sorry for the people who have to swipe on them. Honestly, they are too much!

Who doesn't love a good 'ol fashioned toss in the sack? Sex can be a beautiful (and fun) way to pass the time. Whether someone has a dirty little fetish or an unfulfilled sexual fantasy people can certainly get...creative when it comes to their preferences in the bedroom. We have teamed up with The Single Society to bring you all these freaky things people were asked for during sex. Yikes!

Breakups are never easy, but they're especially harder to get over when you don't have any type of closure. In an ideal world, you'd be able to sit down with your ex and have a civilized chat about why the relationship didn't work out. You'd each express your feelings, maybe cry, definitely hug it out, and shed the emotional baggage from the relationship. But life rarely works out like that, and as I've learned over many years of heartbreak, creating your own closure is the only real way to move on. But closure is relative; does it mean going to therapy? Keying his car? How about a good old fashioned breakup letter? Or, since we're in the age of social media, a public letter on Instagram, letting him know just how disappointing you found him. Thanks to the Instagram account To The Guys I've Dated, now you can do just that. Women everywhere are submitting letters to the disappointing men they have dated (or kinda dated) to get the closure they need. Each week we bring you a new selection of some of the funniest ones, and this latest haul is just as funny and brutal as all the previous ones we've published.

You might think it's easy to get some these days, especially with everyone desperate for human contact after lockdown. But it turns out that cat owners often encounter technical setbacks that the average person doesn't, which could stop them from getting lucky in the sex department. Together with The Single Society, we bring you real women's stories of times their cats did everything they could to stop their owners from getting laid, which, if you know a thing or two about kitties, isn't all that surprising. It turns out cats are the ultimate c*ck blocks!

When it comes to dating, everyone needs to kiss a few frogs before finding their prince charming. And by frogs, we mean men who will let you down, screw you over, or generally disappoint you in some way or another. We've all had the 'pleasure' of dating, or kinda dating these men, but hey, at least they make for fun stories to tell our girlfriends, right? And now, instead of just venting about them, you can take it one step further and write them a public letter of disappointment, with the Instagram account To The Guys I've Dated. They help women get the closure they need after kissing yet another crappy frog by publishing short letters written by the women who dated them. Here is the latest collection of these hilariously sad but relatable letters, which might inspire you to submit one of your own.

If you're a woman, then chances are, you've either been in a relationship with or at least had a date with a man who made you lose the will to live. Men possess a unique talent for really grinding your gears and getting under your skin- and not in a good way—amirite ladies?  Imagine the satisfaction you'd get by writing him a letter expressing what you felt about him and posting it online for all the world to see (including, hopefully, his mom). Well, now you can, courtesy of the Instagram account To The Guys I've Dated, who post funny and real letters of disappointment from girls to their "exes." Each week, we bring you a fresh batch of these letters, so dive in and scroll through this latest haul, and then check out last week's in case you missed them.

When the better part of the world entered lockdown, many a couple ultimately made the decision to cohabitate, for better or worse. Moving in together is a big step for anyone, but in a situation where you must endure the company of your significant other morning, noon, and night, things can get ugly. We teamed up with dating blog The Single Society to share what ultimately lead to their breakup while quarantining together. Have a breakup story? Share it here for a chance to be featured!

We've all been through breakups where all we wanted to do was send our piece-of-sh*t ex a message telling them exactly what we thought of them. Because, well... closure. But, whether our friends convinced us not to, or our sense of pride got the better of us, we held back (until we had that second glass of wine). But now, the Instagram account To The Guys I've (Kinda) Dated has your back when it comes to getting the closure you need from any men who let you down. Simply write your ex a short letter, let them post it, and hope his whole family (and new GF) sees it! Simple.

This world seems to be filled with one Tinder nightmare after another! Take this guy, for example! A complete asshole who clearly knows nothing about how to treat a lady. We teamed up with The Single Society to share all the fabulously bad mishaps the modern dating scene has to offer!

Hinge, OkCupid, Bumble, Tinder, Eharmony, Coffee Meets Bagel, Ship - the building blocks for the rollercoaster that is the dating app sphere. And what a wild, shitty ride it is. 

If your dating life is as much of a hot mess as my own, you've been downloading, deleting, and redownloading the apps since the beginning of time. Like many things in life, it has turned into a routine that I have come to despise. Alas, the quest for love always keeps me coming back for more. Because I've become so intertwined with the apps, I have inevitably become intertwined with the guys featured on the apps, and they will always have a special place in my digital heart. To all the boys I've swiped right (or left) on before, this one's for y'all.

When it came to romance (or anything else, for that matter), 2020 wasn't exactly the best year. Thankfully, 2021 has made an appearance, bringing with it endless possibilities in the 'love' department'. Ladies, it's time to cleanse your spirit (and lady parts) from all the f*ck boys you left behind in 2020. New year, new you! And just in case you need it, the Instagram account To The Guys I've (Kinda) Dated has your back when it comes to getting the closure you need from any men who let you down. All you need to do is write them a letter, explaining what your disappointing ex did to you, and they'll publish it on their account, naming and shaming him for the world to see. Closure never felt so sexy!

Finding out that your boyfriend or husband has been cheating on you is devastating, whatever the circumstances. But sometimes, the truth is so ridiculously stupid, that it's almost funny. Maybe. Sort of. 

Together with The Single Society, we bring you funny, cringe-worthy, and ridiculous stories from real women who discovered that their exes were cheating on them. From finding out he's sleeping with your boss's sister, to meeting their other girlfriend while you're both bailing him out of jail, these stories will make you cringe on behalf of these pathetic men. Enjoy!
