Recently, we asked the BuzzFeed Community to tell us the worst places they've ever been dumped. Here are some of the infamous breakup locations that we agreed were, indeed, the worst:
1. Small Dick, Aisle Two
"Over the phone at Whole Foods. Everyone stared at me as I yelled, 'Whatever, you have a small dick anyway!' and proceeded to check out." —ruthannm4b52a7d02
2. The Old Ball and Food Chain
"When my ex-husband told me he wanted a divorce, he did it my favorite breakfast place: Cracker Barrel. I sobbed in the middle of a totally packed restaurant. We eventually separated but decided to work on our marriage, and six months later he asked me to meet him at Subway. There, he told me he pushed our papers through and our divorce should be final in a couple weeks. Again, I sobbed in the restaurant." —ashleybouchern
3. For the First Time I Feel... Wicked
"He bought us tickets to go see Wicked. I was sooooo excited. We drove for an hour and a half to get to the theater, and right before we went in, he handed me my ticket and said, 'It's only you now, sorry.' and drove away. I went to the show anyways, though." —nebrickner
4. Message Received
"Our family of four had just gotten back from vacation. This was the mid-'90s, so upon our arrival home, we all gathered around the answering machine to hear who'd reached out while we were away. The best message of all was my boyfriend leaving a message that he was breaking up with me for another girl. My family just looked at the ground." —erink47ec7e314
5. A California Pizza My Mind
"At a California Pizza Kitchen. On my 17th birthday. In front of all my friends." —jbdoesitbetter

10. The ~Gall~ of This Ex
"I got dumped over the phone while I was in the hospital waiting to find out if I needed emergency gallbladder surgery. By the time the doctors came to tell me I didn’t need it, I was red and puffy from all the crying. Got to keep my gallbladder, though!" —maddyg4b9791f48
11. Steak, Shake, and Break... Up

12. Prince Charming is a Social Construct
"Disneyland. Which sounds like a great place to get dumped, right? Nope. A cast member even came over to me and said, 'There’s no crying at the happiest place on earth!'" —katien464011fe7
13. You're Finally Done, and So Are We

24. VolunTEARS!!!!!
"This guy I had been dating for over a year broke up with me at our church festival WHILE I WAS VOLUNTEERING THERE. He and his family were about to leave, so he stopped by my tent and asked if we could talk alone for a minute. I returned to the tent with tears and makeup running down my face. Needless to say, it was really awkward seeing him and his family at church after that. My mom legit made us move to a different pew because his family sat in front of us at Easter Mass." —andiepanda1999
25. When the Romance Gets In-Tents
"We were camping in a state park. Once we were there, he told me a friend of his had invited herself along. Come to find out he told her the same story about me, hoping we'd have a threesome. Instead, the other girl and I cursed him out while he just sat in his truck and took it. She ended up taking me home after we told him — and every other person who was camping near us — what a dirtbag he was." —karim4
26. Third Eye Blind-Sided
"Back in college, this guy I had been dating for a few months broke up with me during a Third Eye Blind concert. No one should get dumped to a '90s alt-rock soundtrack." —brianneb45d56a859
