35 Terrifyingly Unforgivable Things People Actually Did To Their Former Partners That Are Making Me Thank The Gods That I’m Single

“And you deserve prison, but you won’t get time.”

Some days, I'm admittedly bummed about being single. But other days, I'm reminded of how burdensome it can be to have a boyfriend...and that experience can sometimes get worse when that person becomes an ex.

So people bravely shared proof of their exes' horrible behaviours, and today, we're gonna laugh at them and be thankful it's not us!
