The Story:
One summer, between my freshman and sophomore years of college, my girlfriend called and said she had a “big surprise” for me if I visited her that weekend. She lived 3 hours away (we met at school), but I decided to go. I arrived at her house with flowers, only to be dumped right away. I started crying (this was before I became more tough), and then her whole family walked in. So there I was, with flowers in my hand and tears streaming down my face, and then my ex said, “Well, I have to get going.” To make things worse, it rained the whole drive back, I cried the entire time, and I got lost, making the trip 5 hours instead of 3. Now I can laugh about it because it felt like a scene from a movie.
