Today, my newly ex-fiancé, the father of my 5-year-old child, moved out of state with no warning. I just spent my last $500 paying off his car, and the rent is due tomorrow. FML

Jerk. No one should leave their child and former love high and dry like that.

What a ******* douchebag! You have a kid and he just left like that!? I really don't ******* get people like this and I swear if I knew him I would enjoy slowly disecting his testicles. I'm really sorry but at least you realized it and let him go. I really wish the best for you and your kid.

I'm sorry this happened to you and your kid, OP. Hopefully you'll get things straightened out soon. Good luck.

If you had to pay for him it's because he had no money so how do you expect him to have any the next day to pay rent? Not that it's impossible but you're taking risks. Since you have a kid to take care of, you can't afford taking risks anymore. What are you going to do when your child gets sick? You should always keep a reasonable amount of money in your bank account for emergencies and things like.. Food maybe? That being said, f*** your kid's life.

Right, because we all can just stash away money, and none of us live pay check to pay check. Don't blame OP for that cumguzzlers actions, he ****** up by leaving not her!

The guy's a jerk that's no doubt but OP is way too nice or just naive. Plus, when you have a child, you should be responsible enough to take care of them and provide the essentials (food, shelter, etc). My first reaction was to think the ex is an asshole but when I thought about it, it makes no sense not keeping 500$ on the side when you have such responsibilities. I'm pretty sure I'm right saying f* the kid's life considering his dad abandoned him and his mom can't pay rent.

28 - even if it isn't the exact next day it's still close to it because she says "just" so op shouldn't spend it on the car when she knows she will have to pay rent soon. Plus, I would be surprised it's the first time the guy is acting like a jerk because what he did is pretty extreme. Hopefully, OP will learn from it and never take him back in her life for the sake of her child.

It's very cute and nice saying "awww OP, poor you he's a jerk" but it's not going to help her take better decisions in the future.

My ex did the exact same thing. Then tried to take the kids when I was still in a homeless shelter. Didn't work so well. He now doesn't even see them.

Oh you weren't married to the child's father? That's a poor choice.

Marriage doesn't stop a spouse from running out on their responsibilities.

And it doesn't solve existing problems. Way to be judgmental dude!

Forward me his contact information, OP. I have a scalpel, local anesthetic, and an intimate knowledge of the male anatomy. I might even forget to use the local anesthetic.
