Today, my ex got dumped by his girlfriend. Seeing my opportunity I sent him a song I wrote for him about how much I still love him. He sent it on to the girl who had just dumped him claiming he had written it. They are back together. FML
I agree, your life sucks (40964) - you totally deserved it (13100)

The OP is a woman.

I agree, you should tell her, and you do both deserve better.
Buuuuuuuut, I'm thinking the OP is the one who'll get in trouble there, for moving in so quickly on this bloke. Either way, still tell her. The dude's a tool, and she should know the extent of it :P

I know zero it's a bad habit of mine to refer to both gender's as dude and slightly male-oriented I suppose but I mean no insult to any females

Don't tell his girlfriend. How about you realize what you already should have: He's an ex for a reason. YDI for being so freaking desperate. As they say, there are other fish in the sea. Or, He's just not that into you.
#48 - On 08/12/2009 at 11:44am by genius_man16
Nah, genius, I think she SHOULD tell the girlfriend, after all it's HER song. She does need to know he's a twit, before she gets too deep.
But I agree that moving in like that was pretty desperate; yeah, exes are usually exes for a reason.
So FYL and YDI, OP.
#83 - On 08/12/2009 at 1:49pm by DameGreyWulf
I don't think so. She needs to move on with her life - his girlfriend knowing the truth is none of her concern. Being vindictive is not an attractive trait, certainly not something anyone looks for in a potential partner - taking the high road detaches her from the situation, and that's what she needs.
OP: the guy doesn't care about you, he cares about that other girl. He doesn't mind taking something from you, he doesn't mind hurting you. You expected differently from someone you love, but now you know he's not right for you. You also know now that you can write good songs. Move on and write the next one for the right person - good luck.
@102: She SHOULD move on, but at the same time she should tell the girlfriend about it because it's plagiarism. It's like saying you should just let it go if your best friend decided to hand in your painting as his own to a teacher or something. She doesn't have to be bitter about it to still do that.
FYL for having your song stolen. At least now you should realize how much of a douche he is and how you SHOULDN'T be pining for him anymore.
I think that's not a good idea. The difference between him handing it in to a teacher, and him claiming it was his to his girlfriend, is that the teacher might matter in the OP's life - her ex' lover should not. If she keeps talking to these people she keeps them in her life. The right time to cut them out of her life is now - not after doing that one last thing. She put it off long enough already.
In all likelihood the new gf wouldn't believe her anyway. What should she do then? Argue with her? Try to prove it to her somehow? What if new gf she believes her - don't you think the boyfriend wouldn't call her and whine about it? That's not a good way to get him out of the OPs life. What if the new gf believes her, forgives the boyfriend and calls the OP a bitch who tries to destroy their relationship?
There are thousands of guys telling their girlfriends lies, right this minute. That's none of her concern, just like these two are no longer her concern. She needs to get out now.
Do what #25 told you OP. If you show her the song your EX's gf will probably either:
You're right, or,
Notice the song lyrics were correct and suppose your EX sang the same song to you and her, which acting as if he's cheating on her.

haha he obviously didn't want to be with you and what did you expect to happen, him to come rushing towards you, you both kiss romantically and then marry and have kids together? hahaha YDI for being Naive buy yh FYL lol
#3 - On 08/12/2009 at 10:06am by Loserguy139
theres no need for that man, life is just beginning and already crushing peoples illusions is just unnecessary, bitterness will hardly get you anywhere
#8 - On 08/12/2009 at 10:08am by rotf_coaster_9
Should have tried using the milkshake song by kelis instead, would have been hard for him to use that with his ex.
#24 - On 08/12/2009 at 10:27am by rick_james_b17ch
FYL definately, time for you to move on and look out for someone less mean.
#5 - On 08/12/2009 at 10:07am by Nonamerequired
TELL HER GODDAMMIT!
Although don't try and hook back up with him as:
A. It will look like you were just trying to get yher to break up with him so you could have him
B. He's an ass and uninterested in you. And an ass.
#9 - On 08/12/2009 at 10:09am by Brooklynxman
They didn't have anything to move on from. But hell no no one is using my work to get the girl back. I would tell her.
#132 - On 08/13/2009 at 2:51am by LaceyPatrickson
or mentioned a name, haha
But seriously, it's not only mean, it's even copyright violation if you get me. You should look into the possibility to sue him! :P
#17 - On 08/12/2009 at 10:13am by Nonamerequired
:/ that sucks. could you put the song up though? no im not gunna send it to someone. im just curious :p
#13 - On 08/12/2009 at 10:12am by Fogie
Wow. He's a dick, maybe its a good thing you're not with him anymore
#19 - On 08/12/2009 at 10:16am by Sun_Kissed18
your ex is a pathetic asshole for just taking your feelings and sending it to someone else claiming it was his. you deserve better.
#21 - On 08/12/2009 at 10:19am by Sunako
Your ex is a cock guzzling piece of shit. Find someone better!
#26 - On 08/12/2009 at 10:33am by apocalocyntosis
i think you should tell her the truth too, hes a loser, you deserve so much better and she probably does too, make him pay for being such an ass
#30 - On 08/12/2009 at 10:41am by Carlynator09
You are so creepy. And selfish.
Even though the guy seems to be a dick, do you really think it's a good idea to send him a love song from someone he doesn't love on the day he breaks up with his girlfriend?
How do you know it was on the day the broke up? Creepy and selfish? Sounds like someone is describing themselves! Have you ever thought that this could be the first time shes seen this kind of side of him? For all you know, this could happen a week after! Loser.
#53 - On 08/12/2009 at 12:07pm by tennisstar8D
...yeah, because a week after is a lot better then day of. The OP is a selfish, undeserving bitch if she thought it a good idea to use HIS misfortune to get what SHE wanted.
Though he isn't much better if he turned around and used her song to get the other girl - so maybe they deserve each other after all. :/
#76 - On 08/12/2009 at 1:26pm by BLNovelist
Got to agree, the OP was only thinking about herself and while it was a pretty dick thing for the ex to turn around and claim the song as his own what she did in the first place was pretty rude. If she really cared for her ex (and not just for her own feelings) she wouldve waited until his heart had healed instead of seeing the opportunity to pounce on someone when they are emotionally weak.
ok, sure, but take any and all of the coldness out of your heart, and think of it this way; dont guys do the same things to girls ALL THE TIME! And isnt it sometimes considered romantic, or cute? Get some sympathy, and think of it her way. Not only could she just have realized her crush is a fag, she might think that he knew what it meant, meaning she was utterly rejected, at least in her mind, and then all of her hard work, taken to be used to do the thing that she would never want to happen? Sure its selfish, but its love.
#141 - On 08/13/2009 at 8:38pm by tennisstar8D
no, here's what ya do. you post it online on a website, and then tell her that he got it from that website. she will break up with him again!
#33 - On 08/12/2009 at 10:46am by itouchguy360
He's a lying sack of shit, but you're also down there for still carrying a torch for this dude. Get over him and move on with your life. Oh yeah, and I agree, you should tell his current that you wrote that song.
OP, don't be a douche like everyone here is telling you to. You should be happy they're together. You would be an asshole for trying to break them up and no one will like you. Besides she'll find out sooner or later...
I agree with BadOwner except for the fact that I don't see how she would find out sooner or later.
Look, it sucks what happened and your actions were courageous but sometimes things just don't work out the way we'd like. So, sadly it is time for you to move on.
p.s. How do you know he passed the song along to her? Did he tell you- cause if so you should have called him out? Did she tell you- cause if so that would have been the time to actually tell the truth? Did a third-party tell you- cause if so, tell the person that you no longer want to know about anything that happens with him, it just feeds your lovesickness.
Good luck, OP. FYL.
#46 - On 08/12/2009 at 11:40am by honeyishrnkdakid
OP sounds really desperate. Go find u a big cock to help you release some endorphines and move on.
#47 - On 08/12/2009 at 11:42am by FlaminYawn
Well you sound mature. NOT. So I'll take it you're rarely laid? The guy is NOT what you need if this is how he'll treat you; forget that fag!
#52 - On 08/12/2009 at 12:04pm by tennisstar8D
OMG. LOOOOOOOOOL. What a faggot. How dare he! But, omg it's hilarious. I'm sorry you had to watch your efforts get used by someone else to their benefit. This is one hell of a sign for you to get over him. Please do so.
#51 - On 08/12/2009 at 11:58am by Kiwi_Splash
He's an ass and you should tell her and prove it to her to fuck up their "couple" and then you move on and laugh evily :D
#54 - On 08/12/2009 at 12:14pm by 4ube
a guy like that you shouldn't even be interested in. you are worth more than that. Anyone who can disrespect you like that inst worth your time.
How can you say she is worth more than that? You don't even know her.... She could have been a creepy stalker towards this guy since they broke up, and he could have really loved the girl he was with and didn't know how to express it... So, he saw his chance and took it. It's not like everyone is completely honest all the time. You people need to get off your freaking high horses.
OP He's an ex for a REASON. You COMPLETELY deserve this one.
#71 - On 08/12/2009 at 1:08pm by kandi_shop_xoxo
so wait a second... you say I dont know the OP then you talk to me like YOU DO know the OP? Talk about hypocrite.
What you do know is that she was some guys EX.
She wrote him a song.
He took the song and passed it off as his own.
This to me immediately labels HIM the creep. If she happens to be a creep herself then fine. But from whats told there is NO proof that they are the one who is the creep. After all she isnt the one who took the song and passed it off as her own.
You just made yourself look really stupid Kandi.
Logic. Please use it.
no I'm saying don't say she is worth more than that because you don't know her. I didn't say she IS a creepy stalker I said she COULD be one.
#77 - On 08/12/2009 at 1:28pm by kandi_shop_xoxo
"But from whats told there is NO proof that they are the one who is the creep."
I'm pretty sure seeing the fact he broke up with the GF as an opportunity for her to swoop in is a pretty bitch ass thing for her to do. IF she actually gave a shit about him the proper thing would have been to just console him - not try to convince him to go out with her right after the break up.
#78 - On 08/12/2009 at 1:30pm by BLNovelist
I think that's a sign that he's not interested anymore. Also, the last part about them being back together, that shouldn't matter to you anymore either. He doesn't like you, whether he's single or not you don't have a chance.
You should definitely tell his girlfriend the truth. The both of you deserve better than someone like him.
#57 - On 08/12/2009 at 12:23pm by Edenbeam
That sucks. Tell the girl you wrote it and ditch the guy if he comes back to you. He's a lying jerk, as you just learned.
Sorry :(
#58 - On 08/12/2009 at 12:24pm by love15
so you wanted to be a rebound?
YDI. i hate when people jump all over guys/girls who just got broken up with.
#59 - On 08/12/2009 at 12:24pm by lich
Wow, the one last night about the voicemail breakup and now this have just made me lol so hard. It's fucked up. You and that other girl deserve a better dude, for sure. FYL.
#60 - On 08/12/2009 at 12:28pm by glassjaw_90
girls can be called dude too, I do that with my friends sometimes.
#61 - On 08/12/2009 at 12:33pm by love15
Wait a minute ... if this was posted by a girl, I'm confused.
So a girl wrote a song to get her ex-boyfriend back. If she wrote it she probably sang it. It has a woman's voice. If he sent it to his ex-GIRLfriendand said he wrote it, woudln't there be some discrepancy that there's a woman's voice and not a man's? Unless he told her another woman sang it?
Just a thought.
#67 - On 08/12/2009 at 12:54pm by frostyturnip
Haha, next time send her the lyrics to the Blow Job Song by Blink 182.
"It would be nice to have a blow job
It would be nice to have a blow job
It would be nice to have a blow job
It would be nice to have a blow job
It would be nice to have a blow job
It would be nice to have a blow job
It would be nice to have a blow job
It would be nice to have a blow job
From your Mom"
If she knows the song, then she might even think that the other song was just lyrics he found off the internet, Win/Win situation! =D
dang dudete that blows but you shouldnt have done it hey hes your ex for a reason im pretty damn sure he broke up with you find a new guy get over it DX
#73 - On 08/12/2009 at 1:13pm by girlwhoactshigh
FYL because that was a dick move on his part, but also YDI for sending him that to begin with. He's your ex and had obviously moved on -- if he'd wanted to get back together with you, I'm sure that would have been first priority over him dating other girls. What did you really expect other than to be the rebound girl, at best?
#80 - On 08/12/2009 at 1:39pm by vaguereference
You made the mistake of forgetting your ex was a cunt.
#82 - On 08/12/2009 at 1:48pm by Darling_Cherry
wow!!!that sucks big time! i mean i know how it feels kind of but u have to get over it because there is somewhere out there is someone much better!
prolly should have given him some time to get over her first... what he did was wrong but so was your actions.
LOL, See why you dont try to go for an ex, you do something along these lines they will take give it to the person they love. YDI for being an idiot LOL
Tell her ! Tell her !
C'mon, you cannot but tell her !!
Get back at him and tell her "oh, uh, i m sorry but it was a song i wrote for him" - just don't tell her when ^^
ydi for writing him a song about how much you love him. try telling him in person.
#93 - On 08/12/2009 at 3:04pm by zesunflower
DON'T LISTEN TO THEM! If you tell her, she would laugh her ass off because she won his heart and you didn't. YDI for being so pathetic and not moving on. And YDI x infinity if you tell her.
This is more FYL, but it's partially YDI too. Trying to move in at a weak moment is a sleazy move that shows you have little respect for the person, because you're just taking advantage of their suffering for your own personal gain. Your ex was a jerk to send it on to the other girl, but you are a jerk for trying to use that situation for your own personal gain.
#98 - On 08/12/2009 at 3:46pm by israelnotjacob
I agree. I understand still having feelings for someone, but doing something like that so soon after a breakup is asking for trouble. Even if he had taken her back, she must've realized that she would have only ended up being his rebound. I feel bad for her because of her position, but she had better choices than the one she made. Like to wait for a little bit and maybe be a friend - at that point he would have needed a friend more than a new (or older) girlfriend anyway.
#106 - On 08/12/2009 at 5:00pm by CrimsonImpact
Im not gonna lie...that guy is amazingly smart....a lying bastard....but still smart.
#99 - On 08/12/2009 at 4:00pm by takemeonthefloor
If you want sweet sweet revenge, forward the original e-mail you sent to your ex to that girl. She'll see the time stamp and realize he just copied your song and sent it to her, she'll dump his loser ass right quick : )
#100 - On 08/12/2009 at 4:03pm by rockstarK9
that was stupid of you, but smart of him.
YDI you deserved it
im happy for him
#101 - On 08/12/2009 at 4:04pm by lifesxmisery
Why don't you call the girlfriend and say you just wanted her to know that her boyfriend made a pass at you and sent you that song trying to get back together with you. If she doesn't believe you or he denies it, tell her "How else would I know the song then?"
ha ha, this was in an episode of JONAS.
tell her!!!!!!!!
#107 - On 08/12/2009 at 5:13pm by thingymajig
that is sooooooooooo bad. holy crap. i am SO sorry that your life sucks that bad.
#108 - On 08/12/2009 at 5:15pm by iloveyou_baybe1
is the girlfriend a friend of yours? if she is, show her the song asking for her advice because you wrote it for a guy you like. say that you showed it to your ex too, but he never said anything back.
poof. she knows, your ex gets what he deserves, and you get in no trouble
Ugh, There is nothing good to come of this.
FUCK your life for being a selfish prick, and trying to win your ex over with a damn song.
FUCK his life for being a stupid douche and plagiarizing your damn song to win his ex over.
FUCK his ex-girlfriend's life for being won over by a damn song.
Did anybody in this situation stop to think of the reasons the relationships were ended?

i feel sorry for you. i was dating a guy for almost 4mths before he decided he wasnt over an ex girlfriend he dated 6years ago...not to mention after he dumped her, he dated a girl after her for 3yrs...my ex is now engaged and it hasnt even been a month since he broke up with me.
#131 - On 08/13/2009 at 2:46am by Charmaine23
OP, you're an opportunist. Seriously, that's such a sleezy thing to do as soon as he broke up with his girlfriend. You pretty much deserved that. Things would probably have gone better had you maybe tried to comfort him first, then build up a trust, instead of running in there with a love song. That would piss me off too.
He is not worth your time if he would do something like that. Wait for someone who will love that you wrote them a love song.
#134 - On 08/13/2009 at 7:02am by skittlefreak101
That asshattery is probably why you and he broke up in the first place. Please don't try and get back with this theiving liar.
#138 - On 08/13/2009 at 12:57pm by shoeofallcosmos
um she wasnt with him at all. As in she just thought she could swoop in and pluck the guy up.
#140 - On 08/13/2009 at 6:00pm by LaceyPatrickson
um, yes she was, it is her ex? Her EX. Meaning they went out already?
#142 - On 08/13/2009 at 8:40pm by tennisstar8D
YOU KNOW WHAT SUCKS.. the fact that he;s still with her.. and didn't come back to you.. and ohh fuck sometimes the txt messges i sen tto my exx.. with all this lovey dovey shit.. he forwars it to her.. aRGH.. worst thing is he tells me.. but i lovehim.. i feel sorry for the chick though.. the b***h full thinks he botherd riting it.. but dw ITS NOT MEANINGFULL WHEN THEY SEY IT HAHA.. cuz ur the one who rote it!
#144 - On 08/14/2009 at 9:50am by Sushay29
you should just send the original copy to his girlfriend and tell her that he sent it to you a long time ago...and how else would you have it...that will probably get her to break up with him and that way you get him back for being a d**che and forwarding it to her to get her back
#148 - On 08/15/2009 at 4:22pm by mustangkid14r
I hate to say it, but you deserve it. Don't go after an ex, ESPECIALLY when he just got dumped. It makes you look desperate and would make you the fall-back girl for him. Obviously he's an ass for doing that, but what did you expect? Did you think it would be a deep and meaningful relationship considering? I suggest dropping the situation and moving on.
Don't feel stupid I had sex with my soon to be step sister but still that guy is a jack ass get a new guy.
