Today, I broke up with my boyfriend. After he left my place, I realized he took my Sonicare toothbrush because he knew that I would be more upset about missing that than our relationship. He was right. I am really upset about it. FML

It's no ordinary toothbrush. But still it's a toothbrush so get over it

more concerned about your toothbrush then ending a relationship... Wow your relationship must have been... Somethin else. That or you really love your toothbrush.

But it does half the work for you. It's the epitome of laziness in dental hygiene.

And they're overpriced pieces of shit at that. She might as well have bought a gold-plated vibrator instead.

Yeah, but obviously he was an ordinary boy and easy to get over, so she could focus on the expensive not ordinary thing she didn't have anymore.

It sounds like she already cried herself a river, so now all she has to do is build a bridge and get over it.

But if op has braces... I know my orthodontist recommended it..

That is theft of property press charges to be a bitch since he was an ass for tacking it.

72, your comment helped me invent a new insult. Asstack. Thank you.

It wasn't just an ordinary toothbrush ;)

Ask him for it back. He probably took it so you would have to talk to him again to get it back.

Hell no don't ask for it back! He probably used it to clean his asshole or something.

Are you trying to advertise Sonicare?

She ended the relationship, so it obviously wasn't working. Why should she be sad? I've heared something like this before from a friend. He dumped his girlfriend, but when moving out, she took stuff of his with her. He never asked it back, though. (Which is stupid, in my opinion. It's theft!)

20 it's the cost of getting rid of someone who is indeed that bad ... Sometimes sacrificing a few physical things is worth getting your freedom.

I agree. To get his stuff back means he would probably have to make arrangements to see her again.

#5 I'm being the devil's advocate there but it is possible that OP's ex was a selfish d-bag and that she is relieved to be rid of him

#42, I don't think that's the devils advocate. Some people are not worth being upset over. SHE broke up with HIM. If he wasn't worth being upset about breaking up with him, he probably wasn't worth staying in a relationship with. I don't understand why people think everyone should be upset about every single breakup. And the fact that he stole something that she really valued out of spite shows that he probably wasn't even worth being with.

Buy a new one and rub it in his face that you're happier with it; he'll get super jealous. Over a toothbrush. Wow- this is a bit sad... I should go to bed...

#9 - Can we say goodnight to you instead?

My zebra likes sonicare, had to import it. Damn costly zebras.

Brush it off. He cares for you, he could have brushed your sonicare with dirt and made you bite the dust. he chose otherwise.

He chose to steal an expensive toothbrush. How is that a comfort?

He could have used it to clean filthy things and then left it to use in her mouth, but he didn't. I would prefer that he took it you know...well you obviously don't...

37 - No, I don't. A relationship is something you enter voluntarily, and you should be allowed to break up without "punishment". I don't see why someone would have a right to steal your stuff because the relationship did not work out. Basically, it doesn't matter what is preferable. It's both wrong.

Couldn't agree more 45. Just goes to show how effed our society is because most people said she deserved it. She neither deserves having the toothbrush stolen, or having gross things done to it. She also doesn't have to stay in a relationship where she isn't happy. She obviously made the right decision because he's the kind of person that steals stuff to make himself feel better.

You and your toothbrush must have had some intense moments together for you to miss it more than your ex-boyfriend.
