I don�t write this post as a brag but as a topic of interest. We all have done something we are all ashamed of so why not get it off our chests.

What was the worst act you ever did to a lover (former lover)?

Here it goes:
Background
My wife (Korean) moved to the US with me after five years of dating. She�s a bit of a bitch and I�m a bit of a d*ck. She�s a bit of a Hitler and I�m the guy that she can�t push into the oven. When she came to the US she kept bitching about my hometown and how she always envisioned us living in Manhattan. Yeah me too.

Sarcastically, I said you should throw yourself into the local culture. At this time it was American Football season and our home team is followed with maniacal fervor. Our arch enemies are the Dallas Cowboys. As I predicted she would be for the opposing team. I told her we should go to a game. She vehemently was opposed to this idea unless she could root for Dallas. I agreed even going as far as buying her a Cowboy jersey for the game.

So we went to the game. It was a cold December game. She had her jersey but a winter coat to cover it. We got a bit tipsy by 1PM and went into the stadium. As we drank with the rest of 60,000 mob, she got pissed (drunk and angry) at the fan base. I said, �Hey show your true colors.� She took off her jacket and the rain of beers, boos and insults (really bad) fell upon her (at this time her and I were on the stadium screen). She is a tough cookie but she turns to me and says everyone here hates me. Why? I told her every one thinks you�re an Anti Philadelphia c*unt. She quickly took off her Cowboy�s jersey, yes it was a bit nippy that day, and demanded my Eagles shirt. The crowd cheered and life was a little better.

We laugh about this still today.

She never thought I do that to her.
I never thought she would whip them out.

Wow, lucky it went as it did but that could have easily been the end.

Hmmm. Somehow the wifey wearing the other team's jersey to a football game is not in my category of 'spilling the beans' about something to be ashamed of.

Surely you can do better. Dig a little deeper and try again.

Alright Ya-Ta I have done worse but it�s a bit of a comical story,yet true. I�m getting a bit older and more conservative in my old age (don't want to devulge the gory details). Let�s make no bones about it I am trolling(I'd rather think of it as a public confession). Let�s hear your story. You�re an interesting guy.

No doubt it's true, but you have set the bar really low on this thread. Ummm....OK. Once I didn't answer the phone when I knew it was the ex calling.

If you want something revelatory, I think you should share something to indicate just how gut-wrenching you want. Seems fair.

Perhaps the difficulty here is the definition of 'ashamed'. What comes to my mind is slinking off into the sunset, face bright red and sweating while thinking 'this world would have been a lot better off if I had never existed'.

Your idea of ashamed seems more like, "I wish that cool girl hadn't seen me with a copy of USA Today under my arm."

Come on Ya-Ta. I set the bar high if we are playing limbo. Ok maybe not the best (by your standards) but I�m not going to baited into something I�m deeply uncomfortable giving out. I just thought it was an amusing story and maybe someone else wants to get regret off their chest. Give us (Daves Reader�s) a story, you�re a salty vet.

Ok.. Ya-Ta Here is another incident:

I was dating this chick who loved her cat more than me. She ended up living with a guy who worked for the SPCA. At this point I was homeless due to my student loans. Filled with jealousy, I donned a pair of dirty pantyhose upon my head. I was overcome by the smell and forgot about the 24-7 shop I was about to rob and drove the stolen car to her humble abode. I found her and her new boyfriend watching �Jeopardy.� I knocked on the door with a 12-gauge shot gun. I told them to undress and handcuffed both. Mike the accountant/SPCA told me not to rape Chubby Christine. I told him I had no intention to do her. Frightened and knowing my sexual proclivity, Christine thought I was going to give Mike a backdoor message. To everyone�s horror, it wasn�t the humans I was after. It was the p*ssy. Tiger the cat was a sweet kitten.

We all laugh about it now.
Seven years after the statue of limitations.

My fiction is as bad as my spelling.

PETA "this never happened"
Christine " I still hate you"
Mike "Your a pimp acccountant"

Not ashamed in the least, but when I found out my ex-fiancee was sleeping with one of her co-workers, I opened the window and threw her stuff out across the lawn a few stories down. Then I changed the locks. When she got "home" from work, hilarity ensued.

An ex told me she was getting a haircut and asked me what I liked. I said anything but a perm as I hate them and they make most women at least 50% uglier. She got a perm. I dumped her on the spot and walked away as she started bawling...in a coffee shop.

Amazingly we are still friends and she still calls me, whereas my last ex who basically messed with my mind on a daily basis(karma anyone) wouldn't give me the time of day when we were going out, never mind after.

I dated a guy briefly that so so hyper heterosexual it was weird. One man and one woman together, any other combo was deviant and justifiably punishable in his opinion. The gay marriage debate drove him into frothy rages, it was almost comical.

Anyway, I very quickly tired of his closed mindedness and decided to break up with him. Or rather, I forced him to break up with me. He came over to my place one day to find me in bed getting jiggy with his very hot sister!

He left! Never came back, and never called again. It was the only girl girl thing I've done, a fun experience but I like boys.

In 1999 I took my wife and kids to America to see the relatives. My dad shelled out for business class so we could be comfortable. Then my uncle, who I'd named my second son after drove 6 hours to see him. After 30 minutes she wanted to leave. The whole time we had to fight about the child seats. My wife thought holding the baby was enough.

I admire my mom for not taking her face off like she used to do to me and my brother when we f'ed up.

It's too bad you didn't have any friends or family who were cops who could stop and "ticket you" for breaking the law. Hitting her with a "ticket" for several hundreds of dollars (she doesn't have to know it's not real) would probably have stopped the arguments while Stateside.
