Today, I was walking with my boyfriend down the street and a really hot guy walked past with no shirt on. While distracted by his hardened stomach muscles, I promptly walked into a pole, then became single. FML
I agree, your life sucks (8124) - you totally deserved it (38378)

... well you did kind of deserve it xD but still, hardened stomach muscles are quite hard to resist.. mm....
ha, my girlfriend and I joke about other people being hot all the time, your boyfriend is a big douche bag for doing that. Just because you find someone physically attractive doesn't mean you would have anywhere near the same emotional connection with that person. Of course it sounds like you two don't exactly have the emotional connection thing down too well if thats all it takes for him to drop you.(kinda like the pole did)

You don't blatantly check people out in front of your significant other though. That's really disrespectful.

that's not disrespectful at all; it's called being secure in your relationship. if you know that your man wants no one else but you, who the the fuck cares if he checks out another women? he's just looking, not touching, for god's sake. looking is fucking HUMAN NATURE.
i check out girls with my boyfriend all the fucking time.
come back after you graduate middle school please. or at least the middle school mindset of relationships.

there's looking then there's staring running into a pole isn't a passing glance.
#80 - On 09/02/2009 at 3:28pm by mnkyc_mnkydo
you check out girls.
when your with your boyfriend?
confussed muh?
#100 - On 09/02/2009 at 5:29pm by superstephen4
it is disrespectful. just because it's common knowledge that people are attracted to other people (gasp!) doesn't mean that your SO has to ogle people in front of you to the point where he/she can't function.
I think you need to graduate from high school before you start acting like you know everything. Obviously checking out people in front of your boyfriend/girlfriend is tacky. It's nothing to break up over, but it can definitely put you in the dog house. And sure your boyfriend is cool with you checking out girls, but would he care if it was guys? Probably yes.
...clearly the relationship wasn't that "secure" if the dumping happened so quickly after the glance at the "hardened stomach muscles"...
and why are people turning this into "guys do it so why can't girls?" its not about the glance at another dude, its about the distraction being so intense that she walked into a pole. if a guy i was with walked into a pole because he was so distracted by another girl, that would be just as insulting.
...though really, i think laughing as a response would suffice, since the pole would probably teach the best lesson in this story.
i agree that he overreated...but to do it so blantantly she walked into a pole? she could at least have been discreet...
The point is she was so engrossed that she hurt herself. THAT is disrespectful. There is absolutely nothing wrong with looking, but you shouldn't be getting caught either. Especially not after physical injury. ROFLMAO...I can only hope OP dusted herself off and got Hot Guy w/ Abs' phone number.
Yea raelly who does that? Not that i really care if he has a nice body tho ;)

Wow, your boyfriend is realllllly jealous. You looked at a guys stomach , who cares?
I'm sure you'd feel the exact same way if your boyfriend did this with a woman. Men doing this is something every woman bitches about ENDLESSLY. Women seem to think there's a double standard where when a man does something it's "wrong" and when a woman does something it's "ok". Then women wonder why men don't respect or trust them. It's because they can't because of double-standards like that. Worse yet, you're from my neck of the woods.
#8 - On 09/02/2009 at 10:32am by Chantallika
#8, I disagree.
I don't think there should be a double standard at all.
If I don't want my boyfriend doing it, I'm not going to (or I'll try not to, at least).
I don't think the double standard is a woman thing, I think it's a certain brainless people thing.

#8 Dude, calm down. Not all girls are like that.
My bf looks at girls all the time and I couldn't care less. It'd be silly for me to assume he will NEVER find anyone attractive but myself. He has every right to look wherever he wants, just be faithful and come home to me, is all I ask.
So before you start saying that all women "bitch endlessly" why don't you stop being such a dick yourself, and maybe you'll find a decent girl.
#15 - On 09/02/2009 at 10:38am by rayrayy
Oh, I gotta add:
I don't care where my guy looks, as long as he respects me. That means he can't drool over some other woman while I'm right beside him. A casual glance or discreet look is fine. If my boyfriend ran into a pole watching a girl, I would laugh at him and feel like I don't need to make him feel any worse by dumping him. Plus, that's not a dump-worthy offense, in my opinion.
#17 - On 09/02/2009 at 10:44am by Intoxicunt
#8 i dunno what girls you surround yourself with but i'd think you should up the caliber. If my boyfriend looked at a girl so hard he walked into a pole i'd laugh as i helped him up then probably laugh at him. i wouldn't bitch endlessly, cry about it or dump him. it's called being secure in your relationship.
#20 - On 09/02/2009 at 11:00am by plutosaplanet
I think you've got the double-standard thing backwards in regards to this. Seriously, dude. A girl just got dumped for doing something that is a totally typical of a guy - you tell me where the double standard is there.
Also, as I pointed out to the dumbass elsewhere on the page, what other girls might bitch about has fuck all to do with this scenario, so STFU about it, yeah?
#38 - On 09/02/2009 at 12:28pm by judgeymcjudge
eh...I've had a few girlfriends like 8 is talking about. that isn't to say that i've had a couple who were the exact opposite, but it is verry common to have double standards like that, my previous gf fucked some random guy on our last 'break' before the breakup, and kept bitching at me for getting with some random chick during the same time period. when i pointed out that she was with someone else, too, she pulled her go-to response in that kind of situation, which, of course, was 'that's totally different.' didn't even bother asking the follow up question to that one, because i know the response would've been, 'because it is.' like i said before, there are some that do this, and others that don't. Maybe you should go out and find a chick that's mature and level headed, like i finally went and did, #8.
#43 - On 09/02/2009 at 12:54pm by _THE_MASTER_
this is the truth.
@OP ur boyfriend is an ass and has the maturity of a penny.

#94 - On 09/02/2009 at 4:29pm by rayrayy
Its really not a matter of gender-related double-standarding at all really. A conflict on this situation can occur in both aspects (man looking at a women, or women looking at men). Granted that there are women who hypocritical about this, but there are just as many, if not more, men also.
I dont think this would be something to dump someone on the spot about, maybe a mild argument at best. Like most said, I would laugh my ass off.
The conflict comes from personal view, not gender though. Some people just dont like their significant others looking at other people in that way.... some couldn't give two shits.... and some are hypocritical about it.
But it is alittle more than a glance if you hit a pole, a glance is ok but staring like in front of him was rude and that was karma coming back at you.... though its not something he should have dumped you over.
Call me what you want, but in this take... for total lack of respect to your bf.... YDI
#111 - On 09/02/2009 at 7:00pm by LordKoin772
I agree, women have tons of double standards. My Girlfriend got mad because I accidentally saw up a close friends skirt at school but it was okay for her and her friends to walk into a guys room while he was in only his boxers
THAT isn't the hardened part you were interested in.
Woohoo, now you're single!
#5 - On 09/02/2009 at 10:25am by Intoxicunt
psh...it's not like your (ex)boyfriend hasn't looked at other girls...he just probably wasn't so obvious. on the plus side, now you can go after that guy with the hardened stomach.
#7 - On 09/02/2009 at 10:30am by the_stereotype
Yum. haha
aww, well if you're going to admire other guys, at least do it so it's not obvious, and make sure there isn't a pole near you while you're drooling. hahaha
#9 - On 09/02/2009 at 10:32am by ohmyword08
that sux, but you're probably leaving something out if your boyfriend dumped you for just looking at some rock hard abs. So still YDI
#10 - On 09/02/2009 at 10:33am by elchapin562
If you are going to look, at least be sneaky about it....looking so hard that you dont even see you are walking into a pole is quite insulting to your boyfriend
Ask yourself, if he was looking at a girls ass so hard that he walked into a pole, wouldnt you be kind of pissed? If this was the only incident then he over reacted, but you need to use better discretion.
I, being a male, would have been jealous also but not enough to dump you over it. My motto is, "It doesn't matter where you get your appetite as long as you eat at home" It's hard not to notice a nice body when it's exposed, whether you're a male or female. Good luck with your reconciliation, if it's worth it
you did deserve it i mean girls always complain on guys and how they check on other girls when they are with you...:| well look in the mirror he was right to leave you...
#21 - On 09/02/2009 at 11:03am by feelingblue
What the hell??
So because there are other girls out there who bitch about their boyfriends looking at other chicks, THIS girl therefore deserved being dumped for looking at another guy in some warped kind of retribution?
Logic FAIL.
OP, he's a dickhead, and he's probably perved on every piece of ass that strayed across his path of vision. Jealous fuckers are not worth your time. Chase after Muscles instead, yeah?
Oh, and watch out for poles. They won't get out of your way.
#37 - On 09/02/2009 at 12:18pm by judgeymcjudge
Well, I can understand why a woman would be irked in a reverse situation but it's not grounds for a break-up. And guys need to keep their shirts on. The only guys I see without shirts are young show-offs, construction workers on rooftops, and aged 50+ men riding bicycles. If a woman can wear a shirt, so can a man. Perhaps you spent a little too long looking at the guy if you walked yourself into a pole. That, along with past behavior, might have contributed to the break-up, or it might just have been the straw that broke the camel's toe.
#22 - On 09/02/2009 at 11:08am by p00p0ster0us
#22 With your logic if a woman can wear a bra, so can a man right? You and every other person who tries to apply such double standards are retarded.
#36 - On 09/02/2009 at 12:14pm by UncleverName_FYL
wow 36, you FAIL miserably. I'm pretty sure that what 22 said is the EXACT FUCKING OPPOSITE OF A DOUBLE STANDARD!!!(caps help prove points) *facepalm* are you really that stupid? REALLY?!?!?!?! go die in a horriffic, painful way, and stop spewing your stupidity. it's infectious, you know. I think we have a futura candidate for a Darwin Award in our midst.
#46 - On 09/02/2009 at 12:59pm by _THE_MASTER_
No double standards for me.
I exercise shirtless because it's comfortable.
And if any of the ladies would like to as well, I aint complaining :)
but seriously, if you're checking out somebody else WHILE WITH YOUR BOYFRIEND, atleast don't be distracted enough to do something stupid. Your boyfriend's a little insecure, but what you did was downright rude at best
I LOLERED!!!!
So funny to hear one with the genders reversed!
Good riddance of anyone that would let you walk into a pole!
You don't have a grasp on the traditional gender roles, so I'll give you a tip. You were suppose to fall down crying so Mr shirtless would come to your rescue.
Looking is fine but looking so intently that you don't see the pole in front of your face is just rude to the guy and your boyfriend. I'm sure this isn't the first time your boyfriend saw you drool over another guy and I imagine it just gets old.
Oh I laugh at you females trying to defend her. Usually you are the hypocritical bitches who go ballistic if you catch your boyfriend staring at an attractive girl.
While your boyfriend may have overreacted by breaking up with you, you still earned it.
That's not true...sometimes when I see my husband looking at another woman I'll even agree with him that she's hot. He knows that I notice he's looking and I don't mind it...he doesn't mind it either if I look at other men.
#35 - On 09/02/2009 at 12:10pm by Puolukka
YDI for walking into the pole, but def not for being dumped. I wouldn't even say FYL for being dumped, either. that dude is a douchebag, unless you nagged the hell out of him countless times for checking out other women. I hate when people get like that, but you are better off in the long run. better off not dealing with some insecure fucktard. It's so stupid to be so uptight about your significant other checking someone else out. it's not like your fucking them or anything. That's part of the reason that things are good between me and my girlfriend, because neither of us really care about the other finding someone else attractive. It's a very basic instinctual response. the sooner people understand that concept, the more stable relationships will be. don't let it get you down, OP, but try to excersize your periph. don't want to get too banged up by those stationary objects.
#39 - On 09/02/2009 at 12:30pm by _THE_MASTER_
What was his etnnicity? For some reason the darker a man is, the more defined his muscles are in the sunlight... My boyfriend is white but I wouldn't mind some Puerto Rican, Dominican or Black washboard stomach. They just have a special sparkle in the day light, like they have half a jar of vaseline on their torso. Yum.
I'm not sure about other women but I think muscley men are really gross. It looks so...strange. Scrawny men are so much cuter.
#44 - On 09/02/2009 at 12:54pm by cyurihsung
am i to believe none of the guys here would get distracted by a hot girl walking by shirtless? fmlife being hypocrit as always...
did you promptly walk into HIS pole? nah jk, while i get where your boyfriend is coming from, theres no reason to break up over it. if you checking out other guys in front of your boyfriend so much that you walk into things is something that happens quite often though, maybe he was right to dump you. either way we dont know the whole story. it sucks, but if he was that jealous about you staring then it was probably for the best anyway.
#47 - On 09/02/2009 at 1:21pm by kisseshugsdrugs
Your boyfriend dumped you for looking? Trust me, you're better off single.
#50 - On 09/02/2009 at 1:42pm by Ray_of_midnight
thats what you get for looking at others while you're with your partner. that's kind of disrespectful if you think about it....
#52 - On 09/02/2009 at 1:55pm by MajinBuu609
Haha, I'm loving the women who are out there calling the guy an ass when girls freak when their guy looks at a hot woman. Atleast guys are direct about it, that guy dumped her because:
1. She was staring at another guy
2. She was clearly a brainless bimbo if she walked into a pole afterwards.
Unlike women, who would be quiet about it then use it in an argument 3 years later.
You did deserve it in a way, but you also have/had a REALLY pussy boyfriend hahahahahahaha.
Tell him to grow a pair and go fuck the abs guy. Seriously.
#61 - On 09/02/2009 at 2:29pm by TysonFawlay
What the hell? What a hypocrite! As if your boyfriend doesn't check out pretty women! If a hot girl walked past him wearing no shirt, would HE not walk into a pole? Tell him he's a hypocritical asshole and good riddance.
#63 - On 09/02/2009 at 2:35pm by gummibehrs
If you're so entranced at looking at some guy's abs, then YDI. I can understand just glancing a person over or looking for a couple seconds, but what you did is obviously more and I would be kind of upset if my boyfriend did that to me. I'm sorry, but you should learn not to stare.
I'll probably get my head bitten off for saying this, but...
There are some (few) people out there who, once they find the right person, don't care about looking at anyone else and therefore just don't do it. I'm one of those people and so is my boyfriend.
Of course, I'm not saying the OP and her ex were in that situation, because they weren't. But not everyone gets thrills from checking out other people while they're with their boyfriend/girlfriend.
Your boyfriend was a douchebag.
It's natural and normal to take notice of attractive people. If someone's boyfriend/girlfriend dumps them for taking notice of a good-looking member of the gender they're attracted to, the dumped person is better off.
#72 - On 09/02/2009 at 3:01pm by midwestjerk
You are better off... If he is that insecure you don't need to be with him. My wife and I talk all the time about the oposite sex... Doesn't bother either of us.
I love how many people think it's normal for someone to OGLE someone else to the point where they walk into a fucking pole. Yeah, because I totally see people walking into poles every day. Not. I mean really, did your eyes turn huge and your tongue drop out of your mouth like a cartoon character too?!
It is normal for humans to *look* at other attractive people. It is NOT normal to completely scam on someone like a fucking creep. And I'm pretty sure if it had been the guy eye-fucking another girl, the females on this site would be like "OMG YDI!!!!!!" (and I'm a female making this claim so please don't give me any shit about male double standards or whatever.)
#76 - On 09/02/2009 at 3:20pm by ihatestupidppl
You embarrased him in public, what did you expect? he was nice enough to take you out from the kitchen and you do that? Be glad he didnt punch you.
lolwut
I think he's insecureeee. Poor guy. My mom helps my dad decide which of the women who hold the suitcases are hotter on Deal or No Deal. In a secure relationship, a couple should be able to talk about the attractiveness of others with their partner, because your partner should know that he/she's the one that you want, not any other person. (and by "they should know" I mean "you should remind them regularly") Nothing's more fun than rating how hot the people passing by are.
#78 - On 09/02/2009 at 3:24pm by Amysbodybetrayal
i'm just wondering why "Promptly" is capitalized... and used... is it really necessary? I think "promptly" is turning into the new "proceeded" in fmls.
#81 - On 09/02/2009 at 3:35pm by hannahleigh
I didn't realize I was playing a "pretend sympathy" card, sorry if that annoyed you. I have no sympathy for anyone who walks into pole. :P
And personally, if I saw my boyfriend ogling another girl, I'd poke him, say "So you think that's hot?" and laugh when he said yes. (or laugh harder when he said no while really meaning yes) I wouldn't say YDI if the OP was a guy in this situation, I'd just say the girl was insecure instead.
#86 - On 09/02/2009 at 3:56pm by Amysbodybetrayal
I routinely check out other women, even in the presence of girls I'm dating. Sometimes I remark on it, too. And they are feel to disagree or agree. And they *gasp* don't suddenly dump me or call me an asshole.
I guess I just don't date jealous, insecure bitches. I'm strange like that.
"women are allowed to be daddy's little sluts, but men can't look"?? Seriously?? I think you've got your double standards wrong there. I'm pretty sure that if two people are equally slutty, one man and one woman, A LOT of people would consider the MAN to be a "player," as a compliment, and the WOMAN will be considered a "whore," as a derogatory term.
Just saying you've got your double standards wrong. I, however, would consider it disrespectful on BOTH parts if someone's staring so much that they walk into a pole. A quick glance? Fine. Ogling, especially right in front of your SO? No. No matter what gender is doing the looking.
(Although apparently some of you are fine with that with your SO, but that's an exception and you both are okay with it and know it.)
Oh yeah, because everyone lives in the mindset that once we're in a relationship, the rest of the world doesn't exist. I'll look at a nice set of abs while my boyfriend is with me. And he might stare at a nice rack. Whatever. It's not like he's going to leave me to go hump some random chick while we're walking down the street.
Everyone, just grow the fuck up.
Um my husband and I check out people all the time and critique them. You can still look at the menu, you just can't order!
#88 - On 09/02/2009 at 4:03pm by 110879
i like your mindset...my GF happens to be as awesome as you, to the pont where if we're out and a hot chick is behind me, she'll be like, 'look at the tits on her.' she's even down for the good kind of 3-way. think that ones needs no further explaination.
#89 - On 09/02/2009 at 4:09pm by _THE_MASTER_
Haha, my boyfriend (now ex) and I used to do that when we saw underage girls. :3

#131 - On 09/02/2009 at 9:53pm by theanonimouse
because your ex is a perfect angel that never would even think about glancing at a woman barely clothed.
What a douche, FHisL.
#91 - On 09/02/2009 at 4:11pm by rockstarK9
I have to stick up for OP on this one. While it is understandable that it's a little rude to do it on occasions like a date or something, you can't really expect the other person to think you're the only attractive person to them ever. And if you do think this, you're naive. But girls do have to be careful with this because guys can get VERY jealous when it comes to women, even if the girl just thinks someone else is attractive. It's kind of sad really...but it's true.
As for OP, he definitely should not have dumped you for that, it's absurd he would have done the same thing if a hot girl walked buy in a bikini. Find a new boyfriend.
you can't stare at another dude if you're on a date... that's really rude and annoying. YDI you douche.
#95 - On 09/02/2009 at 4:29pm by morpher910
well, you cant look at a hot guy while youre on a date with your bf and then get caught looking at him. although sometimes you cant help it, its still rude. and you'd probably have been pissed at him if he'd done the same. but i doubt him breaking up with you was the right choice because he's probably done it too just didnt walk into any poles unless you've been caught multiple times. if not dont worry about it. youre human. SH.
#96 - On 09/02/2009 at 4:41pm by shuu_naay
This is just another way about how sad some things can be today. Her boyfriend should have just let it go that she was so distracted by another person she ran into a pole? When you're with someone you should have the respect for them not to behave that way. It's disrespectful.
Beyond that there's a difference between thinking someone is attractive and being attracted to them. If you are with someone and are constantly being attracted to other people mayby you aren't supposed to be with that person. If you're really in love you wouldn't want anyone else. At least that's how it is for me. I love my fiance and other guys barely register in my awareness.
#97 - On 09/02/2009 at 5:05pm by indianabummer
okay, so you say just because you're in a relationship you're not allowed to find other people hot ? complete bullshit if you ask me
nothing wrong with looking, and the pole is just funny. i woulda laughed at you, but not broken up with you just for appreciating someone else's good looks. your ex had issues - if it wasn't this, it woulda been something else.
#102 - On 09/02/2009 at 5:33pm by erikalikesfire
I love how this says "hardened stomach muscles".... instead of a abs... simple... but I guess that added flavour.
I don't like it because "stomach" is an organ inside your body, not the whole damn area.
That's like people calling female genitalia "vagina" when the vagina is one part of it, not the whole area.
Not trying to start shit though.
I'm glad you liked it.
#105 - On 09/02/2009 at 6:13pm by Intoxicunt
She never said, that she was dumped. She might have broken up with her ex and went after the other guy.
#104 - On 09/02/2009 at 6:11pm by slave_to_misery
HAHA!!!!
#104: No I think she was dumped. Girls hate it when their boyfriends look at other girls (especially that obviously) Is there any reason to deny that men hate it when their girlfriends do the same thing?
ur just a typical fucking girl. just cuz a guy is hott.... u deserved to get ur ass dumped :D
#108 - On 09/02/2009 at 6:31pm by itspillzhaha
most woman jus care bout looks thou, most guys dont...a hott guy will do stuff with an ugly girl, a hott girl would NEVER do anything with an ugly guy....girls r jus straight bitches....like this girl
#155 - On 09/03/2009 at 8:22pm by itspillzhaha
That sucks. You gotta learn to be sly. Your (ex-)boyfriend over-reacted, but you're probably better off without him anyway.
#110 - On 09/02/2009 at 6:57pm by FoundManyLemons
A dude with washboard abs walking with no shirt= gaygaygayGAYYYYYYYYYYY
YDI for getting distracted by a flamer.
all women are pigs. YDI for being a disgusting perv who is unable to pay attention to her boyfriend AND risks her safety to check out some slutty guy!
/endsarcasm
not so nice to hear from the other side eh ladies? I was trying to write like one of those dumb feminists do when a guy can't help but look at a woman who is literally POURING out of her shirt…although I admit it got kinda weird at the slutty guy part lol
Poor op, Your boyfriend totally over reacted. Girls have to deal with it all the time with guys checking out girls, but if a girl does it with a guys, they act like little babies. FYL
ahahah omg u got dumped over that ... thats wack yo im pree sure he looks at other girls
#117 - On 09/02/2009 at 7:33pm by crazybread101
thats pretty ridiculous i look at girls all the time but u have to be a fuckin idiot to dump somebody for that reason i would never do that to my girlfriend
Unlike other people, I think you're an ungrateful whore. In other countries you would be put to DEATH for doing this. You already have a man, why do you need others? OP is the epitome of why men treat women like they're all whores...
And some other countries are RETARDED. How on earth does a girl looking at a guy make her a whore? Get out from under your rock and into this century you fucking moron.
#136 - On 09/02/2009 at 10:54pm by bunnywuffles
Those same countries tend to put people to death just for being gay, too.
Basically what I'm trying to say is those countries are fucking retarded and crazy and should not be used as an example for anything other than how fucked up life can be in some parts of the world.
I'm also trying to say you're a retarded, crazy asshole with a severely distorted view of the world.
Don’t tell me.. Victorian or west Australian?? lol
I would have suggested Tasmanian but you said boyfriend not brother lol
#121 - On 09/02/2009 at 8:08pm by catriona_cd
I don't think it was the checking out a guy with abs thing, as the you were staring so fucking hard at him that you walked into a damn pole. That shows how much you would rather have been with abs than your boyfriend. YDI
Its not that she wanted to be with him. Sometimes people's stuff is just distracting. Like a woman with HUGE breasts. It just draws your attention- male or female, straight or gay. Sometimes things just grab people's attention, that doesn't mean she wanted abs. And I realize that by saying that I condone her bf getting so "distracted" by a woman's chest that he walks into a pole.

What a fucking double standard. If the boyfriend had been checking out some random girl on the street and did the same thing, he would've gotten all defensive and called the girlfriend 'oversensitive'. What a load of bullshit.
so yeah it was a bit obvious, but hey, can't blame you.
And come on, tons of boyfriends LOOK AT PORN while having a gf, the chick can't simply check a dude out?

WTF does everyone say "you FAIL"? the fuck is this, guitar hero? get off the bandwagon losers.

It's probably for the best, anyway. You were rid of him at the same time you learned he was totally insecure. This ain't a FML at all ;)

Being that obvious about checking anyone out is rude. And how stupid are you to be THAT distracted by a guy? If I saw Gerard Butler walking down the street without a shirt on, I would never run into a pole... they are kinda hard NOT to miss. Dumbbbbb bitch.

No both guys and girls check out other people all the time, but there is a line between a quick glance, and looking so long you walk into a pole. Though the guy obviously knew what they were doing if they let you walk into a pole. I think you desverved it.
The moral of the story is probably not to walk into poles, and try not to be be so obvious next time!
As others have said:
Glancing, looking and poking fun at, discussing is all one thing, one side of the spectrum.
Staring so much you run into a fucking pole is quite, quite another.
Has nothing to do with the guy being insecure, his girlfriend is just stupid.
Yes I doubt she was all "I REALLY WANNA FUCK HIM RIGHT NOW," but it is really rude and disrespectful to her boyfriend and the guy she was drooling over.
She was staring so much that she ran into a pole, she drew attention to herself, let the whole world know she was checking out others when she already had one. This is how she will be percieved, and then he will be called a fool for letting her stay, and she will be... as someone said, an ungrateful whore.
But it's not just those two things...
You don't fucking OGLE someone to the point of running into or tripping over anything when you already have a significant other. It's just... no.
I agree that if the gender roles were reversed, people would be shouting "ASSHOLE YOU DESERVE IT"
If this were me, I'd probably be unable to keep my mouth shut.
"Holy shit you see his stomach? God damn."
I certainly wouldn't fucking run into a pole, I'd be too interested in telling my guy about the guy we just passed.
I'd definitely say the same about a popping-out bimbo, too, by the way.

holy shit there are some long comments here, you people trying to write a book on here? .. anyways you suck for running into a pole. hahaaaaaaaaa
You deserved it. People that are checking someone out with their significant other present so hard they walk into a pole simply don't deserve to breathe. One less stupid kid running around, woo!
Haha!
Seriously, you totally desvere that one.
Looking at others is ok to most people, if its a quick glance. But to stare at them enough to walk into a pole?? Whilest your significant other is there??
Seriously, all of it was well deserved.
If your boyfriend dumped you cos you were checking out another guy, the relationship wouldn't have lasted very long anyway.
Neither YDI or FYL.
I don't get why men can't get away with looking at a good looking woman without getting slapped/dumped/chewed out. A woman can look at a good looking man, but is surprised when she gets dumped? Please, you are a shallow b!tch, and you deserved it.
Lawl you deserved it bitch.
Your own fault for checking someone else out, and I'm not surprised when it's a girl from Australia.
Nearly every girl I've met in this country is the same way.
So much fail. Enjoy being single.

Lol, tbh you did deserve it, it's highly disrespectful. Next time make sure you're both feeling secure in the relationship, or it's just a quick glance and not drooling xD
#159 - On 09/04/2009 at 5:57am by Showmehowtolive
Ha the way OP worded this made it sound like the pole caused her to be single. lol
@OP: YDI hardcore. My ex used to do that and it's not only disrespectful but extremely annoying.

You deserve it. Have some self-control, you shallow tramp.
#166 - On 09/08/2009 at 11:14pm by ShakeZula7
He needs to get over it. people are too insecure about themselves and don't realize that they are with you, not the good looking guy from across the street. Treat someone right and it doesn't matter who they see or find.
#167 - On 09/10/2009 at 2:01am by stovetop2560
While I agree that he should lighten up, it's not entirely his fault. You obviously have little self-control if you can't even retain proper concentration on simple acts like walking because there's an attractive man infront of you. You have everything you could want, right? So why are you lusting over another man?
#168 - On 09/15/2009 at 3:02pm by goldenferret
Holy shit, FML tells us to "try and be respectful" yet it's cool for #166 to call out "shallow tramp"...For LOOKING? Damn...
i don't see the big deal. I just thought it was funny that she bumped into a pole. my boyfriend and i check out hot people all the time together.
#171 - On 11/07/2009 at 1:20am by rosemary
OP, that's not cool. You deserved a face full of pole because you were too busy thinking about being filled with his pole. I mean, it's natural to be attracted to stuff like this, but what you did crossed the line between what's natural and what's wrong. You prpbably didn't deserve to be dumped but still...
