Do you know why this mans place looks like this after she left? I bet you do.

Sho bought everything that made a collection of rooms a home. Men do not care so they don’t buy things for a home. They just enjoy “a woman’s touch” aka a woman buying something for the home every week to make it a comfortable living space.

I know this from experience. Towels, sheets, pots, pans, microwave, vacuum, couch, book shelves, accent chairs, art, fir blankets, area rugs, silverware, mirrors, dressers, bed frame, oven mitts, tea pot, knife block, patio furniture, etc..............

A woman’s touch in a house is her paying for and furnishing a comfortable life. That’s why these divorced dudes “start” w nothing. They bought nothing because they didn’t care.

You know he's going to drag a woman back to this sad apartment ASAP. She probably won't even get her own lawn chair.

If you ever see a man with an empty, miserable home like this, just leave.

These are hilarious because it ALWAYS involves a camping chair. Just why.

Nah fam, it just looks like you went dumpster diving for your decor

Edit: I just wanted to add:

If you are on old and he sends a selfie and the background looks decorated and styled... um he might have a wife or live in gf...or lives with his MUM...just sayin. Context clues ladies 😉

This instantly reminded me of that song, "A Woman's Touch" from Calamity Jane.

There's a male interior design sub reddit which I find interesting to peruse. The majority of it is dudes who've made that leap from having flat mates to having their own place and looking for interior ideas from their peers. Fair dos! But on occasion you get the above - the newly separated or divorced ones who've either moved out or their partner has and have been left with next to nothing. The commenters on this were quick to describe the ex-wife as 'cold', 'petty', and 'oh boy, she must have loved you!'. I'm sure she made it a home at some point.

Also high end interior designers make £65,000+, just saying.

I won’t lie, after my divorce, my crappy apartment kind of looked like this. I was broke AF. But I also wasn’t on the prowl for a male bangmaid to come fix my shit for me.

mewmewnekochan · 2021-05-14T23:30:09+00:00

Omg this reminds me of this guy that my sister was thinking about dating but decided not to. He had a cardboard box as his desk, literally a cardboard. He was a successful doctor. 😬

ChickaDeeD33 · 2021-05-15T01:53:30+00:00

The worst part is you know he's looking for pity because "she took all the things and left him with nothing!" Cry me a gorram river, you can bet your booty that she bought every single decorative and functional thing in that place.

MsXxSelfDestructxX · 2021-05-15T02:09:14+00:00

Guys that do this are so dramatic. So later on when they start dating someone new they can complain about how "his ex-wife left him broken and starting from nothing all over again" sob story. All he has to do is go to Target and buy some new shit, why is that so hard?

TellCerseeItWasMe · 2021-05-14T22:01:38+00:00

Where do you find this crap 🤣🤣🤣

NumberOneWetBlanket · 2021-05-14T22:15:05+00:00

The bed frame 😂😂😂

Guyincognito9876 · 2021-05-14T22:07:38+00:00

God, they are useless! Reminds me of Kirk van Houten - “I sleep in a racing car, do you?” Yet they try to argue that women are the ones who benefit from marriage!

sunflowerpaint · 2021-05-15T02:34:59+00:00

He was married... and his wife took the mattress? He could only afford a half a mattress, or a futon? And he was married? What exactly was he bringing into this relationship? Like there's so much to unpack here (figuratively)

Don't get me started on the men can't decorate. They really can live in a literal jail cell and see nothing wrong with it lmafo

FDS-GFY · 2021-05-15T00:39:05+00:00

When i left my cheating ex husband he got the bed which he cheated in, an ugly old chair and on purpose, a half dead plant. I still have the beautiful pots, pans, and mixer my parents gifted us with.

luvmyvulvaxoxo · 2021-05-14T22:29:23+00:00

LMAO omg. I saw this post too. I was going to figure out how to put it here but didn't want to brigade.... The whole sub was ridiculously sad.

Edit : I thought maybe they had 2 mattresses for comfort reasons. And I just realized she took the mattress cause she bought it and he found a fucking futon to sleep on lmao

Phoenix__Rising2018 · 2021-05-15T01:38:27+00:00

Men without women 💀🪦

Jaelismyhomegirl · 2021-05-15T04:43:28+00:00

Well this is sadder than a one-legged puppy. I’m certain he can afford better than this, he’s just too lazy to figure out what he needs and then shop for it.

Next stop: nest

Savorycorncake · 2021-05-14T22:28:15+00:00

Haha enjoy your prison cell

Zurflu · 2021-05-14T22:02:16+00:00

I'd love to see this place a couple months from now!

PinturaMagnifica · 2021-05-14T22:16:41+00:00

Backrooms energy.

shockingupdate · 2021-05-15T04:27:21+00:00

My ex and I lived with multiple housemates, who unfortunately had to deal with our breakup in real-time. By the time I finished packing up everything I bought for the house, three-quarters of the kitchenware was gone. Five people had to live with one set of silverware and like 25 pairs of disposable chopsticks 🥴

NotYourCirce · 2021-05-15T05:08:25+00:00

I always know a man’s room because everything is brown and black 😂

idiosyncraticg1 · 2021-05-15T16:14:55+00:00

I had an older friend do this 😂 she showed me before and after pictures of the house she shared with her partner. The main furniture was his (large couch, dining table), but all of the decor, the TV, side chairs, bedding was hers. The house looked like a frat house in the “after” pictures!

Lavender_flow · 2021-05-15T09:03:40+00:00

How fucking pathetic. Imagine posting a picture of this online. He should be ashamed. So fucking sad to be this much of a cheap loser

dahliaukifune · 2021-05-15T08:25:04+00:00

when i broke up with my ex we both had to ship boxes back to our home countries. he was supposed to ship my already packed and sealed boxes to me because i had to leave before him and it was cheaper to ship all at once. ladies, he went through my boxes and kept some of my stuff. HE KEPT SOME OF MY STUFF.

_laufaeson · 2021-05-15T00:27:25+00:00

lmao it’s my STBXH’s new place.
