We need to talk…

By HeatherRosure18 - This FML is from back in 2013 but it's good stuff - United States - Glendale Heights

Today, while at the nail salon, my boyfriend called. Since I was getting my nails done, I had to put him on speaker. The whole salon heard him break up with me. I can still hear their snickering in my head. FML

Sorry OP, guess he really nailed you with that one. Maybe you should have worked on polishing your relationship while you could. Though I gotta hand it to you, you seem to have taken it well.

FYL, I'm really sorry he did that and I'm even more sorry the whole salon laughed. That was grossly unprofessional and uncalled for. I would make some kind of complaint about that if I were you, not that it would reverse what they did but some people need to be taught when it is and isn't OK to cross boundaries. As for your now ex- embrace life without that douche x

I'm sorry that happened to you, OP. He's clearly a jerk. But if he's the kind of person to break up with you over the phone, he's not worth any grief. And, just saying, you should never put a phone call on speaker in public. Never. It's one of those universal social rules.

What a douche. Why would he want to ruin your manicure like that??

While that was inconsiderate of him to do that way, putting a personal call on speaker in a public place is pretty inconsiderate as well. Not only to who you are talking to, but to everyone around you. Some of the snickering may have come more from discomfort at being forced to listen to it happen rather then actually finding it funny.

Why wouldn't u hang up?? I would have started by saying I'm on speaker phone at the salon- that sucks but I wouldn't have gone through a while break up on speaker phone....

Well, at least it was just snickering. Feel fortunate that you can't understand what they're saying in Korean. Unless you speak Korean, then FYL.

I wonder if she wouldn't have answered it, if he would have still broken up with her through a voicemail message. "Hi OP, it's your boy.. er.. ex-boyfriend. Yeah, I just don't think it's gonna work out. It's over. So.. that's it. K bye."
