Today, I went to my girlfriend's house to celebrate our 4-year anniversary with a shadow box I had made for her of our memories over the years. I left her house single, with a small bag of "breakup candy." FML

hey guys, OP here. I would like to say thanks for the support on this post. So as for breaking up, it went as smoothly as I could hope for. She was kind enough to answer all of my "but why" questions and the candy was some of our shared favorites. I guess I should have seen the breakup coming but I was in serious denial for a few months. We are still on talking terms and are separating peacefully but it doesn't suck or hurt any less.. As for why it happened on our anniversary? It wasn't really planned in any way to be on that day. it just... played out like that. I know this sounds dumb but it was the first time we had gotten to speak at length in over a month. I hope this clears up any questions.. Thanks again for the support ya'll show

She either went out and bought you candy (to cheer you up?!??) or she just gave you some leftover pity candy Either way that is harsh.

That's horrid she could've at least waited a little longer or done it sooner

Well, if she would've waited longer to break up with him she had stall him and that ain't good either. She should've done it sooner and not wait till their anniversary.

She wanted the gifts before breaking up with him

Sorry man, at least you got candy though

As unfortunate as it is, it's better she did it now instead of keeping you waiting. Take that candy and a nice movie and eat your feelings away tonight! But not too often..

Lol @ breakup candy. She just opened some of the Halloween candy early out of pity.

Cool, now you'll forever associate that candy with being dumped. She really went the extra mile.

It is for the better. I suppose she could have used a bit more tact when doing so, but if she was not into the relationship, dragging it out may have just made things worse.

At least it ended on a good note and he got candy, I mean it's better than getting your car keyed or something.
