This horror ex-lover story was shared on Reddit. After buying a new phone, her boyfriend asked her to text him so he can save her number.
She texted him as they both drove home saying, “Hey, what’s up?”
She got a reply that said, “hey, can’t talk right now. I’ll text you back in 5.”
This event spooked the girl because the boyfriend was in the car with her, driving the car. There was no way he could have been answering her text while driving. So who was the one replying to her text?
It gets worse.
They get home. He goes into the bathroom and moments later, his phone lights up. It says, “hey. What’s up?”
The girl replied, “not much…you?”
Boyfriend texts, “super horny. Wanna meet up tonight?”
She replied: “why not right now? Horny too.”
He replies: “Okay, will try to make it ASAP. Cool?”
She says: “yeah.”
But a moment later, the boyfriend came out of the bathroom. Remember, he didn’t go to the bathroom with his phone. So who was texting the girl?
The boyfriend tells her he wants to head home. He tells the girl to text him quick so he can have her number. Again, he says this with no indication he was aware someone claiming to be him had been texting the girl earlier.
Eerie, yes? Very much so. She left him after this.

There are psychopaths among us, sick people who have no inkling they’re bonkers. Once in a while, we have the unfortunate opportunity to become yoked with them in a relationship.
In this story, this guy found out his ex once ran over and beat a girl with a crowbar. That is, she first ran the girl over with her car. Then she got out of the car and proceeded to beat the girl up with a crowbar.
Why did she do this, you wonder. Well, she thought the girl was sleeping with her man so she went out to exact justice. According to the report, the girl slipped into a vegetative state following the incident.
In this story, someone had their entire life ruined because someone else assumed they were cheating. You’d think you’ve seen and heard about all the crazy in the world but people still manage to shock you.
This one never intended for her victim to live.

It had got to be this guy hated old people. There wasn’t a better explanation for what he did.
So this girl and her boyfriend were riding on a train when an old man, about 70, barely able to stand and using crutches, also got on.
This girlfriend got up so the old man could take her seat. The boyfriend wasn’t having it. He broke up with her, then he sent messages to her where he called her very demeaning names.
She blocked him. SO HE SENT SCREENSHOTS OF THOSE MESSAGES TO HER OTHER PHONE.
According to her, the guy was jealous that she got up for the old man. In my opinion, the guy is just sick or something.
4. He Lost The Plot

You’ll hardly believe this insane story about this girl’s ex. They were both sitting on a park bench, smoking and having a good time.
Suddenly, they see a kid fall flat on his face. The girl responded instinctively by running over to help the kid. She found out the kids mother was close by so she came back to her seat.
Her boyfriend was scowling. Thinking he was upset because the kid fell, she told him not to worry since the kid’s parents would take care of the child. And that was the moment everything changed.
The boyfriend went berserk. Flipping into a huge rage he started yelling at the girl, in public glare. He accused the girl of trying to make the kid like her because she was a pedophile who was into little children.
Stunned, the girl could only stare in amazement at the psychotic, neurotic boyfriend she’s been with since. She broke up with him that day.
If you’ve ever had a close friend or lover switch up on you this way, then you’ll understand how horrifying the experience could be.
5. Undecided Groom

This is quite a heartbreaking story. It also qualifies as an insane horror story about weird exes.
So this dude proposes 3 times to this lady who accepts every single time. First at a bar, and then two more times at two different bars because they were bar hopping.
Now he made these proposals in public, in the full view of friends who cheered them both. The lady starts planning a wedding.
All the guy had to do was get a tux, and find a minister or whatever to wedding them on the chosen date. Well, dude didn’t do anything.
The lady noticed he wasn’t lifting his end of the couch and she asked him. The guy said, well, actually, he didn’t really think the girl was going to take the proposal seriously and plan a wedding.
It must have been devastating for the lady to have to face her family and friends that it was all a joke.

It was reported by the wife of this ex. It happened that they were driving out of a gas station when this baby mama spotted them. She jumped out of her car where the 3-year-old child she had with this man was sitting in the front seat and chased the ex down the street.
She was calling down brimstones and megrims, asking them to pull over because she wanted to beat the ex and her new girl.
And what’s worse? She was living with her new boyfriend when this happened. Makes you wonder what she wants from her ex. The man later got a restraining order against her, and also custody of their child.

Imagine that after ending it with your ex, they came back, not to get you, but to kill your dogs. This is what happened in this insane horror ex-story.
This guy went to the cops to report the incident where his former girlfriend came over to kill his dogs. The cops didn’t take the matter seriously since he personally wasn’t in danger.
But then the guy tells cops he intended to shoot her if he sees his ex within 2 miles of his house, and they swung into action.
He later got a restraining order that kept the ex away for 30 days pending when a proper court ruling was made.
8. The Psycho Ex

At first, the relationship was going smoothly. The horrors began when he started accusing her of cheating. He’d get mad if she didn’t reply to her texts after 6 minutes.
He’d curse her out. He even threatened to choke her while she slept. He loathed when she dressed up and looked pretty. He thought she did this to impress other men.
Then he threatened to kill himself if she dumped him. He later requested to sleep with other women because she didn’t satisfy him enough. She broke up with him shortly after this. He sent her dad texts accusing her of being a drunk following an occasion where she got drunk one time.
According to this lady, this ex hooked up to a new girlfriend and continued to treat her the same way.
9. The Microwave Is Doing Okay

In this insane story, the microwave is most to be pitied. There was no reason a microwave should go through such a traumatic experience.
This dude was dating a violent girl who tried to impale him against the wall with his microwave by hauling the thing at him. He was only saved by the cord of the microwave which was still hooked to the wall.
The microwave was pulled back by the cord. We aren’t sure if the girl got hit in the face by it. They both laughed over the incident before breaking up. However, think for a second what would have happened if the microwave had hit the dude in the face.
What was her problem? She claimed the guy was trying to make her cheat on him. Whatever this means.
10. The Slasher Ex

This horrifying story is from a girl who worked in the subway with her boyfriend. He had a terrible temper so the girl told him she couldn’t date him.
This guy grabbed a sandwich knife and went in the back where he proceeded to slash himself properly. He came back to show her his wounds and all the blood.
This guy returned the knife to the bin without washing the blood off. The girl moved on right after that so she wouldn’t have to deal with this crazy person.
11. Interstate Cat

If you’re a pet lover you can relate to this insane horror story about an ex. Somehow, crazy exes find a way to stay in your life or hang around it. They’d do the craziest things that would shock you out of your socks.
In this case, this ex stole this person’s cat, got on a bus, train, airplane, or whatever, and then traveled to a different state to give the cat away.
Apparently, this ex didn’t want the cat to ever be found again. Or they wanted the other person to have to travel, and feel their pain before finding the cat.
It could also be that they wanted a meeting and the cat was like bait. Either way, this must have been very traumatizing for the innocent former partner.
