Why Do Women Do Stupid Things During Breakups???
Posted: 10/26/2006 8:42:32 AM
like i was mentioning the other thread "why do men run away?" why is it that when women get hurt/heart broken by men that they turn into psychotic people and start trashing the men's personal items like this woman

http://youtube.com/watch?v=CUx84FO2EYU

however yes she was doing it because of her husband cheating on her it still doesn't give her the right to go and destroy his items that by the look of it, they were very expensive items that she probably didn't pay for. I also heard stories about my friend's ex's throwing there tv's and stuff out the window just because of a break up....jeez grow up, act your age, and move on...don't throw a hissy fit or get ur panties all in a twist because of it...he doesn't like you, there's the door now move.

so why do women do this kind of stuff???

I can ask the same thing.....

Why do men do stupid things during breakups?

Lets be real- people do these things to get revenge. They think it is going to make themselves feel better for some reason and I am sure that sometimes it does.

Who knows!

ok to cover my ass before everyone starts bashing me...i'm sorry for generlizing women but in recent posts i've seen women mostly generalizing men and making us look like the "bad guy" or whatever and i haven't really heard stories about men trashing womens items which i'm sure it has happened but it's just a question that i would like to know that's all i'm not saying that men are perfect cause we're not but lets be honest here.

Well, first, it isn't all women that do this, probably a very small percentage. And men do the same things (ever see "War of the Roses"? :-)

And, isn't it amazing that someone was actually there with a video camera to film this? Can you say "staged"?

You ask why... well have your trust and your heart stomped on ,kicked and beaten by some lame S>O>B and then you can see the affects.she has every right to do what she did a little public humiliation is a good thing. Did it hurt him ... maybe its just a tv and a lap top ....did he hurt her oh yeah and that will be a big one to get over. so to answer your question we freak out because we are hurt and men deserve a little in your face therapy to wake the **** up . if he dident cheat hed be at home with her watching his tv and playing on his lap top . that simple.

Probably because you are 22 and the women you date are immature. Usually, women over 40 don't do things like that, we have learned restraint and self respect.

Andy Rooney says: "Older Chicks Rule".......
A woman over 40 will never wake you in the middle of the night to ask, "What are you thinking?" She doesn't care what you think.
If a woman over 40 doesn't want to watch the game, she doesn't sit around whining about it. She does something she wants to do. And it's usually something more interesting.
A woman over 40 knows herself well enough to be assured in who she is, what she is, what she wants and from whom. Few women past the age of 40 give a hoot what you might think about her or what she's doing.
Women over 40 are dignified. They seldom have a screaming match with you at the opera or in the middle of an expensive restaurant. Of course, if you deserve it, they won't hesitate to shoot you, if they think they can get away with it.
Older women are generous with praise, often undeserved. They know what it's like to be unappreciated. A woman over 40 has the self-assurance to introduce you to her women friends. A younger woman with a man will often ignore even her best friend because she doesn't trust the guy with other women. Women over 40 couldn't care less if you're attracted to her friends because she knows her friends won't betray her.
Women get psychic as they age. You never have to confess your sins to a woman over 40, they always know.
A woman over 40 looks good wearing bright red lipstick. This is not true of younger women. Once you get past a wrinkle or two, a woman over 40 is far sexier than her younger counterpart.
Older women are forthright and honest. They'll tell you right off if you are a jerk, if you're acting like one! You don't ever have to wonder where you stand with her.
Unfortunately, for every stunning, smart, beautiful, hot woman over 40, there is a bald, paunchy relic in yellow pants making a fool of himself with some 22 year old waitress.

So..... For all those men who say, "Why buy the cow when you get the milk for free?", here's an up-date for you: Now 80% of women are against marriage, why? Because women realize it's not worth buying an entire pig, just to get a little sausage.

well, i can confess, i've gone a bit nutty once...nothing like breaking things, going to their house, etc. just written a few too many emails at them in my anger, confusion, hurt and my need to go through a grieving process. I did it because it made me feel better, completely selfish reasons, but i felt better for the release afterwards. Maybe that's what it is about, people need an emotional release and, for me, my release always comes through writing, for others it comes with violence, revenge, drinking, talking with friends whatever...i think mine is fairly harmless all considering, and it doesn't happen every time, just this one particular man, but that's how upset i was. We all have our methods of dealing with things, patterns of behaviour and some, unfortunately, are more destructive than others. And this isn't just a female thing, I've seen men do the same thing and handle things their way and sometimes they can be really ''stupid'' as well, in the eyes of the other person.

A man was cheating on his girlfriend and went off on holiday with the new woman. Whilst he was away she let herself into his house, turned on all the taps and then sprinkled cress seed throughout the house on the carpets. When he returned the cress had sprouted throughout the entire house.

That's not stupid, that's a stroke of pure genius!!

pain, rage and vindictiveness. remember the line 'hell hath no fury like a woman scorned'? not all women do it though, and not all men either. i can't tell you that it's the correct thing to do, but i can tell you that sometimes, it just needs to be done. kinda like vigilante justice.

hmmmmm. I've never broken anything or defaced property of anyone during any kind of a "breakup". However, I DID have my ex-husband try to kick in the front of the tv one night in a drunken rage. Lucky he was drunk and had a lousy sense of balance and missed.
I was even nice and let him stay in the house after the divorce papers were filed, until he could find a place to live. Of course I don't think I'd ever do that again.
I also have a friend who is currently trying to separate herself and her children from an abusive, drug-using husband. He told her that she'll be six feet under before he'll ever let her get a divorce. And the police took pictures of the bruising on her neck from his hands.
So.....she doesn't like him. Why can't HE seem to find the door?
It works both ways, Awd4evr. It's not just women. Both parties have their equal share of psychos. =)

Not this chick ... the fact that someone doesn't want to be with me doesn't affect me so deeply that I'm willing to risk getting thrown in jail for seeking revenge. I like to think I have a little more class and respect for myself than to lower myself to that level of childishness. Besides, it's never gonna bring that person back, despite the size of the hissy fit or level of damage..... Move on. There's plentyoffish......

there is absolutely nothing wrong about sending letters...i was just meaning on the level of destroying property and things like that...and for pinkwinecats i wasn't refering to any of this happening to myself so please don't judge me by my age, i only date women who are intelligent, mature, confident and so on...i do not like the girls who think they're all that and a bag of chips or "look at me i'm a princess" that's not for me.

hey op, i have a question about your initial post. if they are man and wife, and if the things that she destroyed were bought during the marriage, what makes you think that in some way, she did not pay for them? no matter who the bread winner is, the spouse helped in someway or another....... just a question...

Well it does go both way but I am sure we have all heard of a website in which you can go to and put info on it about your ex to trash their reputation..... this site was created by a woman. I did write a long post to this but deleted it because this is a endless war subject between guys and girls. Just remember if you broke up with someone for whatever reason and you begin saying all sorts of bad things about them yet you stayed with them for a period of time, then its your dumbass that accepted it and stayed with them while all the alleged bad things happened. I am a ex cop and when I was a cop and had to deal with a couple that just broke up, 99% of what they told me was a bold face lie. So both guys and girls do stupid stuff and lie to protect their image and make their ex look like trash. Its life so get over it. As they say all is fair in love and war. Sorry if this upset anyone with this post.
