She Fell Running After Her Boyfriend In High Heels When He Dumped Her, And He Left Her On The Side Of The Road With A Broken Leg
Back on the 6th of October, this 22-year-old girl and her 26-year-old boyfriend attended a ball that her company hosted.
She works as a nurse, and her boyfriend is finishing up an electrical trade, as well as his engineering degree.
She and her boyfriend were having some difficulties in their relationship, and the evening before the ball, they got into an enormous disagreement.
They pretty much were constantly arguing about not being on the same page in life. Her boyfriend wanted to be able to settle down in their tiny hometown, while she had a desire to move away.
She was open to settling down with him, even though it wasn’t exactly what she wanted in life. But the big issue for her was that it appeared like she was the one giving up way more than he was in settling.
They also lived an hour apart, so her boyfriend loved complaining about how it was too far to drive to see her all the time. He also engaged in inflammatory behavior just to get a rise out of her, so it’s easy to see why their relationship was on the rocks this fall.
“The night of the ball, the vibe was off,” she explained. “Despite me trying to introduce him to some of my work colleagues or getting him to dance with me, all he wanted to do was sit at the table and scroll through Facebook. He would often just go outside and talk to his friends on the phone.”
“When we were in the Uber, making our way back to my place, we had gotten into another argument due to me questioning why he came to the ball if his intentions were to sit outside and barely speak to me. He didn’t like being questioned. He shut down my feelings.”
As they got out of the car and made their way closer to her home, her boyfriend decided to just break up with her.

He mentioned them living far away from one another before insisting they were no longer compatible.
She was so shocked by this that she burst into tears. Her boyfriend started walking down the street while she just stood there, and then she began running after him in an effort to get him to change his mind about breaking up. As she began heading after him, he started running away from her.
“I was wearing heels at the time, and I was running that fast my legs couldn’t keep up with the speed I was going, so I fell over quite hard,” she said.
“I could not get back up as my right knee and lower leg hurt too much. I was crying and screaming in pain that I needed help, and he just left me there.”
“My phone was dead at this point, so I waited, crying and yelling in agony until someone walked by and called me an ambulance. It turns out that I had a fractured tibia, and I had completely torn my meniscus and PCL (strongest ligament in the knee).”
Her boyfriend was listed as her emergency contact, so when she got to the hospital, they called her boyfriend and left a message for him, but he never called back.
The morning after she got hurt, he attempted to reach out to her and say that in the heat of the moment, he didn’t care at all what happened to her, but he felt bad after the fact.
Next, he asked her if they could stay friends, as he still cared about her, which just served to make her even more upset.
In the two months since that dreadful night, she has had to undergo reconstruction on her knee, and she cannot put any weight on that leg for the next six to ten weeks.
“He has recently messaged me saying how much he misses me and how incomplete his life feels without me,” she continued.
“He didn’t realize I had broken my leg and messed up the inside of my knee. However, I don’t think that’s any excuse. Personally, I think if he cared about me or had any human decency, he wouldn’t have left me crying in the middle of the road, unable to get up.”
His saying all of this did tug on her heartstrings and made her feel bad for cutting him out of her life.
Since all she can do is sit around right now while she waits for her leg to heal, she’s been drowning in her own thoughts and wondering if she should give him a second chance.
