Today, my boyfriend invited me over so I went, not thinking anything of it. To my surprise, he broke up with me. I was pretty upset, and as I was leaving his mom hands me a box. When I got home I opened it. His mom baked me a break up cake. FML
I agree, your life sucks (39599) - you totally deserved it (1756)

(0)at least you didnt have to go out and buy a pint of ice cream.
you got a free cake instead!

(0)umm.. ur boyfriend broke up with you and ur tag says ur a dude... im confused about if ur gay cuz ur name thing is cakegirl..

(0)Take a dump in his mailbox and put ised condoms in there. Thats what i did to my exboyfriends!
#210 - On 06/29/2010 at 5:24pm by guitarheaven789
(0)Sucks you got broken up with. but that was kind of nice of her..
#2 - On 05/26/2009 at 3:13am by BethanyKimberly
(0)It was a nice gesture I suppose... Just incredibly inappropriate.
#3 - On 05/26/2009 at 3:14am by AquaRevolver
(+1)Later that night, the guy calls his friend to tell them about it, and the friend is like, how did it go? Peace of cake the guy goes, as the audience snickers in the background.
(0)Sucks that your boyfriend broke up with you but at least you got a cake out of it. I can't imagine a situation where cake isn't appropriate.
(0)Cakegirl. Your ex broke up with you. That sucks. But his mom baked you a cake! That's so sweet!
#9 - On 05/26/2009 at 3:25am by farflungfloyd
(0)This fml already exists, only it was the bf who made the cake with the girl's best friend. Learn to be more original when you make up fml stories.
(0)Agree with most of the comments..
Sucks you got dumped, but it was very nice of his mom to comfort you.
#13 - On 05/26/2009 at 3:29am by Pirate_argh
(0)Sorry, but I can't see how this is a FML... You got cake!
#16 - On 05/26/2009 at 3:39am by DrunkenMuch
(0)Aww, that's so sweet of her - and this time I'm not being sarcastic.
She seems like a nice person, she knew what was coming up and decided to cheer you up, I wish there'd be more mothers like that!
lol @ #15
(0)Sorry your boyfriend broke up with you, but I think it was very sweet of his mom to make you a cake. I know I'd rather be broken up with and receive a cake rather than just being dump. I know when I am sad, sometimes I just need to eat some comfort food and then I feel a lil bit better.
(0)The cake is a lie.
Some mothers are really strange with breakups.
My ex's mom grounded him for over half the summer when he dumped me and she got me $50 dollars worth of stuff that weekend. That's really sweet though that she did that. I'm sorry about your breakup though.
#21 - On 05/26/2009 at 3:51am by redbluegreen
(0)ooo i think thats sweet ... even though a bit depressing since he told his mum he was going to dump you...
(0)Hardly an FML, it could've been much worse. For example, he could have broken up with you and NOT give you cake. Or get his name tattoo'd on you before breaking up.
At least you got cake. Was it good?
#23 - On 05/26/2009 at 4:06am by my_fml_account
(0)@21: At least the Companion Cube will always be there for OP.
Seriously though, you ex's mom grounded him for dumping you? That doesn't make sense at all.
#24 - On 05/26/2009 at 4:08am by TheBigDawg
(0)Oh god, can people NOT leave comments like this? It's genuinely so retarded to abbreviate everything and what the hell does that even mean?
(0)#24 - I was with this guy for about three years, and he dumped me in the middle of the mall and took off. I called his mom crying and she was like, "I'm sorry he did that! I can't believe it!"
The reason mainly he broke up with me is because I didn't want to have sex until I was married. She thought it was really immature of him and she really liked me.
She thought we'd get married someday.
#26 - On 05/26/2009 at 4:10am by redbluegreen
(0)If you're gonna go out, do it in style. Offer your (ex)boyfriend a piece. :)
#27 - On 05/26/2009 at 4:13am by effmuhlyf3
(0)WHERE MY MO FUKKIN CANDLES HUH?!
*bitchslap dat hoe
(Sry) :D
#29 - On 05/26/2009 at 4:15am by effmuhlyf3
(0)I think the actual FML is that the exboyfriend didn't bother making the breakup cake himself but instead got his mom to do it for him. He could have at least put forth the effort himself but was too lazy.
(0)Bummer about your breakup. His mom is very thoughtful though. On a lighter note, you got a good friend (his mom) out of the relationship.
#23 - That was too funny adding the tattoo comment (from the previous FML break up story)! ;)
(0)I don't know what's worse, the fact that you never saw it coming or the fact that his mom knows about it before you.
(0)like cake is going to make you feel better. I wouldn't eat it, it will just bring back memories.
#41 - On 05/26/2009 at 5:19am by spillproof
(0)I'm hoping the FML is in the break up, not the cake.
She was obviously fond of you!
#43 - On 05/26/2009 at 5:28am by judgeymcjudge
(0)At least you got the cake. Think about all the girls being dumped out there, alone in the rain and without the cake?
(0)I assume this is an FML because the OP just lost the best potential Mother-in-law EVER.
Seriously. What a sweet thing to do.
(0)thats shit but at least a good thing came out of that,
also I thought that it was ironic that your Fmylife name is 'cakegirl'
spooky
#48 - On 05/26/2009 at 5:49am by how_annoying
(0)Well, usually that means she liked you and when he starts to fuck up with the other chicks. His mom is going to say. "I like that last girl you had. You know the one I baked a cake for." The FML was the fact that ya'll broke up but his mom was nice. just live your life and show him how sorry he will be to lose you.
(0)Today, my son told me he was going to dump his girlfriend, whom I really like and was hoping would be with him for a long time. So I baked her a cake, hoping it would make her feel better. Then she posted it on FML. fMl
#51 - On 05/26/2009 at 6:15am by GrapefruitZoe
(0)That was her way of letting you know she likes you, get in there!
#53 - On 05/26/2009 at 6:39am by lol_seriously
That's sweet of her... She probably knew her son was being a jerk and wanted to make you feel better. Cheer up!
#54 - On 05/26/2009 at 6:40am by Cunes
#37, don't be a dick! She (#26) wasn't being a sly bitch, just young and upset and called someone for comfort. It ended up being his mom but obviously they had a good enough relationship for them to talk about it. Not something you would do, but don't be so damn harsh!
#55 - On 05/26/2009 at 6:47am by Cunes
(0)Why is this a FML? I'd happily be broken up with to get a cake, what a lovely gesture!
#56 - On 05/26/2009 at 7:07am by ffffffffffmylife
(0)If I got a cake every time I got dumped I'd probably be dating a lot more.
#58 - On 05/26/2009 at 7:13am by DoctorWombat
(0)Well, it was a kind gesture, but I'm sorry that happened! I hope the cake tastes good.
#61 - On 05/26/2009 at 7:22am by lilacwords
(0)I don't see why this is an FML. People break up all the time, its not an FML, it's life! You should be grateful you got the cake!
(0)Well, people, It's mainly an FML because not only was she broken up with, the mother knew of this enough to bake a cake to drown her sorrows. Not only is it reminding her that she was broken up with by getting that cake, but also shows the only comfort she was getting afterwards was with that cake.
(0)At least you got cake. I'd kill for some cake right now, but all i have are fucking Party Rings that i can't eat because they're full of fucking gelatin. Be grateful.
#65 - On 05/26/2009 at 7:48am by ChelseaChops
(0)Um...isn't that better than getting dumped, and NOT getting a cake?
#66 - On 05/26/2009 at 8:01am by ohhhsnaaap
(0)This is actually kind aamusing. Could be in a movie. Cheer up though. Some girl earlier today had her boyfriend tattoo his name on her before breaking up...
#68 - On 05/26/2009 at 8:47am by Jackthestripper
(0)AWESOME!!!!!! Sorry your boyfriend broke up with you, but OMG FREE CAKE!!!!!
#69 - On 05/26/2009 at 8:51am by LiveBreatheMusic
(0)Well that's sweet (no pun intended) of her. Hope the cake's good, and that she refuses to make cake for him afterwards.
(0)Yeah his mom probably jus felt bad about it... Hahaha cake is good
#72 - On 05/26/2009 at 9:05am by wrestler17
(0)YDI.
Breaking up is part of life. If you can't get used to it, then don't date people.
And there's nothing wrong with getting a cake. This is not worthy for a fml
(0)It would have been funnier, and more of an FML. if it was a vibrator in the box :)
#74 - On 05/26/2009 at 9:13am by shaBAMalex
(0)this is still extremely funny and cute regardless #74. One of the few FMLs that have managed to make me laugh anymore!
(0)So what? Who cares? People break up all the time. What, would you rather he cheat on you before breaking up with you?
This is stupid. You got a cake and a reasonable break-up with no hard feelings. What's the FML? There are other fish in the ocean as they say.
#76 - On 05/26/2009 at 9:21am by genius_man16
(0)someone do a rimshot for #4
Also, sorry that happened. I hope the cake was good at least!
#77 - On 05/26/2009 at 9:27am by zombieman000
(0)Man I just don't see the downpart to this. You got out of a relationship that was going to be doomed anyway, you got a free cake, and now you have a story to tell later in life. I mean...unless it was carrot cake or something then I'd totally be hyped about it.
Also...#26, that was some interesting situation that was made there. If I was that guy...all I could think would be touché madame.
#78 - On 05/26/2009 at 9:42am by CASoulNYCmind
(0)#4 hahahaha
Aw :(
Totally better to have been dumped and have a cake than dumped and not have a cake.
(0)i dont see whats so bad about this, at least now youve got cake... i'd totally torch a relationship for some cake
(0)I wouldn't complain about free cake. I think I'd be more upset about losing his mom than losing your boyfriend. She seems like a nice person.
(0)Holy shit you got a free cake?! How is that an FML? At least you got free comfort food. Although, if it tastes any good, I guess it would be a shame to lose his mom. Dx
#86 - On 05/26/2009 at 10:43am by DarkMirror
(0)they really need to add a "WFC" (who fucking cares?) or a "SFW" (so fucking what?) response.
Trying to figure out how this is a FML makes my brain hurt...
(0)Apparently they both wanted you gone. That sucks. Maybe your a big bitch who knows.
#88 - On 05/26/2009 at 10:47am by Polionixon
(0)All things considered, I'd say they were both trying to be considerate of your feelings. Hell, his mom BAKED for you! You don't BAKE for bitches you want gone and don't like.
(0)Awww that's so sweet! What's wrong with that? His mom knew you'd be sad and wanted to give you something to make you feel better, that's really nice of her. I mean, as long as she didn't write "Sorry For Your Breakup" or anything like that with frosting...
(0)WTF IS with EVERYONE!
"This isn't an fml, Cuz you got cake! I wish I had cake! I'd kill my own mum over some cake!"
IS cake like Crack to you guys?????
OP, Eat your cake
Then Bake a cake to your ex-guys new girl that reads
"Good Luck, He's Got Herpes"
#94 - On 05/26/2009 at 11:39am by Jazzywrites007
Seems as if his Mom liked you despite her sons poor decision. She probably felt bad and wanted to do something nice.
#97 - On 05/26/2009 at 11:48am by 110879
(0)wow you're all such fucktardds.
1. this isn't her fault at ALL . i dont get how she deserves it.
2. i'm sure she'd rather have a boyfriend than cake so it is an FML.
3. that mom is so sweeetttt.
4. #15 you made me pee my pants.
oh & it's an FML because she had no ideaa they were breaking up,
but his mom did obviously if she made a cake. that's what suckss.
(0)
welll this does suckk , it coulldaa been worsee thoo ;
sometimes when guyys breakk uhp w| giirrllls theirrr
momms are completelyy behind them andd aree dick
facess to thee (exx)girlllfriendds. you got a cakee :DD
(0)Haha, I have to agree with #94. You guys are wayyy to excited about the cake.
#100 - On 05/26/2009 at 12:10pm by coffeennicotine
(0)At least you have some free food to binge on when you cry.
If I knew you, I'd have you over and make you some snickerdoodles. Nothing better.
#101 - On 05/26/2009 at 12:12pm by liveitlearnit
(0)Too bad your bf didn't inherit any of that kindness...
#102 - On 05/26/2009 at 12:18pm by l33tm0nk3y
(0)What's with these people and getting cake when they're dumped?? I mean, yeah, FYL for having to go all the way there to get dumped, but at least his mom made a nice gesture. My last ex-boyfriend took me out to dinner to dump me, and I ended up having to pay for both of us... I would have much preferred being given cake :-)
#104 - On 05/26/2009 at 1:06pm by Starburstracecar
(0)Your ex seemed to be nice enough about it. He did it in person and you got a cake out of the deal. There's really no painless way to break up with someone, and I don't think anyone could reasonably expect better than this.
#105 - On 05/26/2009 at 1:09pm by cthulhu1138
(0)why are you upset over a cake? I think that was awfully nice. His mom must have liked you at least.
(0)Wow, she must have really disliked you to do something like that. That's just rubbing it in, it's not sweet or kind. She wanted you gone and was celebrating. I wonder why she disliked you so much? If it was deserved (i.e., if you cheated on her son or something), then I guess YDI. If not, I hope you smashed it in her face.
(0)#94, that would make it look like she makes fun of the nice gesture her mother made. If she (the mother) would hear about it I bet she'd be hurt.
Don't hurt nice mom's, because... well, they're nice, not all moms are like that.
and
#30, I bet the guy didn't even know his mom is making the cake. And if he did, it must've been the mother's idea and most of the times it's better to let mom's do the baking part anyways.
(0)I sucks he broke up with you.
Take comfort in the fact that his mom liked you enough to bake a cake. Hey, maybe she is chastizing him for being a dumbass?
#109 - On 05/26/2009 at 2:10pm by SirAwesome
(0)#107, whoa I don't know how you can even see the "FML" in such light. The world doesn't always revolve around you, sometimes people do nice things just because they're nice.
Ah, I must really like this cake mom.
(0)LOL he sounds like a momma's boy. Cake is awesome! ...unless its poisoned... you should get someone to taste it for you just to be safe.
#114 - On 05/26/2009 at 3:11pm by chilipeppersrok
(0)Aww I think that's pretty darn sweet of her. She cared enough to make you it, that was really nice.
(0)You lost a shitty boyfriend and got a great cake... what more can a woman need in a situation like this?
(0)lmfao #120
on the bright side, his mum was nice enough to make you a cake right? (:
#121 - On 05/26/2009 at 4:04pm by chunkofchange
(0)Not really and FML in my opinion.
People break up, it sucks, but at least he did it in person.
Not to mention his mother was nice enough to give you a cake!
(0)That's not an FML, that's great. At least she's trying to make you feel better.
What did you want her to do? Buy you a new house?
(0)i think that was very sweet of his mom. why is this an fml????
#127 - On 05/26/2009 at 5:48pm by avikakol
(0)well that was f up but you did get a cake....sorry bout the break up
#130 - On 05/26/2009 at 6:14pm by DaHilliardz09
(0)everyone has gotten broken up with at some point in their life, so dont go bitching about a FML thats so stupid. If everyone said FML for getting broken up with this whole world would be saying FML. You are lucky to have gotten a cake out of the deal and that was awfully sweet of his mother to care enough about you to take the time and consideration to do something like that. FYL for being such a whiny bitch.
#131 - On 05/26/2009 at 6:22pm by staffer
(0)That was nice of his mom, at least. (damn someone already made the portal joke)
did the op get food poisoning? maybe thats why its an FML
(0)Well, you could've gotten broken-up with AND not have a cake. So, all in all, you're a lucky gal.
#133 - On 05/26/2009 at 6:31pm by DeadMansCrack
YDI because you did deserve that cake for the break up. At least she's a little considerate of your feelings...
#134 - On 05/26/2009 at 6:38pm by _Mish
(0)You got cake now sit in front of the tv watch corny movies and cry a little.
#136 - On 05/26/2009 at 6:47pm by Zaggytiddies
(0)aww. that's so sad. but i agree with number 1. at least you didn't have to actually go out and buy tons of ice cream and chocolate and that type of stuff. you got a cake for free instead. but i'm guessing that if your anything like me you would've eaten that cake and then bought tons of ice cream and chocolate and other candy
(0)I think it's nice of her, it would just be insanely embarrassing.
#139 - On 05/26/2009 at 7:45pm by Gazuzu_Wizlantis
(0)At least his mom didn't give you a shirt that said "JUST GOT DUMPED" or "AVAILABLE". FYL though ):
#140 - On 05/26/2009 at 7:47pm by LifeIsUnlegit
(0)His mom sounds really sweet. She probably feels bad.

#147 - On 05/26/2009 at 9:42pm by hockey15hockey
(0)it's better than nothing. he could have broken up with you and left you with nothing. at least she gave you a cake i suppose?
#149 - On 05/26/2009 at 10:20pm by cantth1nk0fnam3
(0)that's nice, sweet, stupid, and annoying at the same time. confusing bitch..
#150 - On 05/26/2009 at 10:28pm by justxdream
(0)at least you recieve something... i found out today that this four months with my ex where a lie... all was part of a revenge... fml...
(0)ohh man thats sad and funny at the same time. But hey at least u have the cake to make u feel better
#153 - On 05/26/2009 at 10:53pm by princess333
(0)"My boyfriend broke up with me. His mom gave me a cake. FML."
People break up all the time, most don't get a cake. Why would you bitch about something like that?
(0)You should tell your ex that the cake was more satisfying than he ever was in bed XD
#155 - On 05/27/2009 at 12:25am by wickedgrl13
(0)wait that was really sweet of his mom....how is this an fml?? she has sympathy! (unless she was the one planing the break up...)
#157 - On 05/27/2009 at 1:18am by plumtriangle
(0)you are a bitch. >:( be mad at your ex not her. she made you a cake!
#159 - On 05/27/2009 at 3:07am by Sugar_lipsXo
(0)hmmm... douchey boyfriend vs. homemade cake...
I think the pick is obvious, and this isn't an FML.
eat the cake, feel better, and go get yourself a better man.
#164 - On 05/27/2009 at 6:02pm by reetah
(0)Whaaat? That's actually pretty awesome. One, that he was man enough to break up with you face to face, and two that his mom cared enough to bake a cake! Sorry about the break up part though xD
#167 - On 05/27/2009 at 7:31pm by containsnosoy
(0)Okay, I see the FML part about your bf breaking up with you, but I fail to see the FML in his mom baking you a cake. That is very sweet of her!
And lol I agree with # 165. cake > boyfriend.
#168 - On 05/27/2009 at 7:37pm by lologirl419
(0)I don't think this is an FML. Getting broken up with sucks, but it's not the end of the world. And the free cake, total bonus. It's obvious that both your ex and his mother respect you, so I fail to see the FML in this.
#169 - On 05/27/2009 at 9:20pm by goldfish945
(0)I think u deserved it, u deserve havin a cake after being broke up. I remember readin a FML similliar to this tho
#170 - On 05/27/2009 at 11:34pm by 111newmenultra
(0)awww, I'd feel bad but the cake must've cheered u up huh? shes sweet :)
#171 - On 05/27/2009 at 11:57pm by scateice
(0)Look at the brightside: the mom LIKED you. That means you left a good impression on her at some point. Yay?
#173 - On 05/28/2009 at 7:37am by insomniacdude
(0)You guys are Killing me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You're all TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Over-excited about this god forsaken cake!
She just got dumped.
And most women can't even watch certain movies, or hear certain songs, or even see pieces of clothing that remind them of a previous relationship so why would she Want a whole BAKED GOOD dedicated to christening the break-up?
Granted she could eat the cake but it depends on if she's a Hungry kind of sad or if she's a lost-my-appetite kind of sad.
Either way,
Shut the Fuck up about Cake.
And stop calling her a bitch insensitive Cunts.
#174 - On 05/28/2009 at 9:27am by Jazzywrites007
(0)LOL! Sorry, but a break-up cake is just too random for me XD
Well, on the bright side, you get cake.
(0)That is so perfect for a movie that if someone actually put it in a movie, no one would believe that it had actually happened.
That's really sweet and extremely inappropriate, assuming that she baked it because she knows how shitty it is to be broken up with.
(0)Haha okay this is like the best thing ever.
I mean if your boyfriend was crap, and he broke up with you and you got a cake for it. I'd see it as a double win(:
But if he was a good boyfriend, and you got a cake after he broke up with you....I'd still see it as a win, just not a double win.
Cake is freaking amazing man!
(0)Hey, the last time a girl broke up with me I got nothin' but a broken heart so quit your bitching!
(0)Don't eat it.....they probably put visine in the batter......

thats some bs, i woulda thanked the mom but threw it in the guys face.
#199 - On 08/22/2009 at 10:54pm by shabnam_amin
(0)That's retarded. The guy obviously wanted to break up with her to her face. There's nothing wrong with that, but he could have gone over to hers for it, but then his mum couldn't have given her the break up cake. It would have been arkward if the guy had given her the cake. His mum sounds cool.
#201 - On 10/08/2009 at 11:52pm by Sorrytohearthat
(0)YDI in the sense that you deserved to get cake. Good job, eat it all in front of him and tell him you'd rather the cake than him!
But the other part sux.
