Love, Work and Awkward: Jealous guy

Jealous guy

By Are u Happy Now - 01/06/2023 22:00

Today, my boyfriend got me and a male colleague written up. He thinks I’m having a affair because I made a cake and bought a present for his birthday. He made up a story and told my boss that we’re fucking. My colleague ended up getting transferred to another unit. Hope you’re happy now, babe. FML

Same thing different taste

Today, at work I wrote up my boyfriend (whom I've been secretly dating, because I'm his supervisor) for being $40 short on his register. Our policy is to write up anyone short over $10. He got mad and told my boss we're dating, and I was instantly fired. Then I got dumped for being a "tattle-tale". FML

Today, I confronted my coworker, who I had a crush on, for lying to me. He’d told me he was gay when I asked him out. He’s now dating another coworker of mine who’s a woman. He took this up with my boss, and I was written up for “creating a hostile work environment.” FML

Today, I dumped my coworker boyfriend because I caught him cheating with another coworker. He reported me for sexual harassment, and showed my boss the consensual texts we shared during our relationship. Turns out he edited them to make it look like I was the one “harassing” him. Sucks to be jobless. FML

Today, my boyfriend, who is also my coworker, broke up with me. I agreed to stay professional and civil with him during our work hours. However, he decided to report me for "sexual harassment" and "stalking." He showed them the "evidence." I was fired. FML

Today, my boss found out that my girlfriend dumped me. He asked if that meant she would no longer bring her delicious homemade cookies to the office. When I said yes, he fired me on the spot. FML

By why yes, I do mean "ex-boyfriend" - 17/08/2013 22:40 - Netherlands - Oosterwolde

Today, I got sent home early because a large fire broke out at work. I was greeted by the sight of my cocktard of a "boyfriend" making out on my sofa with another woman. He actually had the audacity and brass balls to claim he thought she was me. FML

Today, my boyfriend of three years sent me several flowers and chocolate boxes to my office. It ends up that he cheated on me with my sister and tried to break the news to me after all the presents he sent. I thought he actually remembered our anniversary this year. FML

Girl, run. He endangered your literal job instead of having a mature conversation about his feelings with you.

Take the time you need to ensure your safety when you break up with him.

He. Deliberately. Harmed. You. Now that he knows he can get away with sabotaging your life, he'll do it more. Run.

I notice a typo in your post. There's no "ex-" in front of that "boyfriend". Like, this is extreme jealousy leading to irrational paranoia, or an abusive tactic to try to control/limit your ability to maintain your financial independence. These aren't mutually-exclusive possibilities, for that matter. Either way, get yourself somewhere safe and rid of that asshole.

cake and a present for your coworker does look a little sus. but your boyfriend was still way over the top unacceptable and if you're still with him you need to RUN

@Crowned Sataness - No, it isn't sus. They're *friends*. I've made birthday cakes for one of my male friends, and my partner was fine with it because he trusts me. OP's (hopefully now ex) boyfriend has serious trust issues.
