That was rude. You don't need him
wow hes clever, i envy that. i hate break ups so what ever people can do to make them less stressful helps, cuz that hilarious, lmao
Wow... that's sad. You are probably better off anyway.
Wow. That's kinda unique but if he didn't have the balls to break up with you in person, you're better off anyways. Still sucks though.
wow, just wow.
#2 yea breakups suck but there is a more tactful way of doing them.
Sims is awesome. But seriously, it was stupid of him to do that. At least he was creative about it.
Even though the rational side of me says he is a total dick and you're better off without some pussy who can't even break up with you to your face, the irrational and rude side of me has to laugh at the way he did it. Sorry it happened that way, but thanks for sharing.

6-save the creativity to ask someone out
doing that was plain rude. i would kill off his sim
that makes you both losers!
Wow...just wow...
Hey, at the very least you can go make your character go slap him and whatnot. Vent.
I am in agreement with numbero seven
What did you do to piss him off? You sure it wasn't his sim breaking up with your sim and you're so into your game you THINK it was real? Hrmmmm...
Hahaha that's very clever, but still sucks.
I moderated this ;) I'm sorry, what a jerk. Although it was rude and uncalled for, I've never heard of a more creative way to break up with someone. Too bad he doesn't have the balls to say it to your face.
#16 - On 04/12/2009 at 8:09pm by nickilikeewoahh
that was really creative of him, but still rather rude.. if he's not good enough to break up with you in person, he's not good enough period. unless you did something really terrible to him in which case ydi.

#10. I wouldn't do that. I would put his character in a house, remove the doors and cause a fire. I used to do that to my characters a lot.
That sucks, but at least you're not with some asshole anymore. Go find someone who has a pair.
YDI for playing the sims. grow up and play xbox like an adult.
Wow that is terrible. Sorry but I find humor in that too.
That's the exact opposite of romantic. Like, if he had asked you out on The Sims, then it might have been an interesting method if you were a big Sims person. Instead he broke up with you. That takes a whole new kind of neurotic.
#22 - On 04/12/2009 at 8:12pm by libertyprime
Agreed with 22. Asking someone out that way would be adorable. Breaking up with them that way is no better than a text message. :( Forget the jerk.
And LOL at 20 for arguing that any video game is more grown up than another. Srsly?
#20 obvious troll is obvious.
I feel like such a jerk for laughing haha. Sry that does suck, guys an ass, but still very creative
clever and hilarious, but what a dick .
As the above posters are well aware, breaking up is so trivial and painless a thing that everyone ought to have no trouble doing it face-to-face. Especially men, since everyone knows exactly how open and comfortable the typical male is with his emotions. It's most certainly impossible for anyone to spend days, even weeks trying to break up face-to-face, only to back down at the last moment, and for lack of courage find a more roundabout way of doing so. Surely anyone who fails to break up face-to-face must be doing it either out of spite or because they are assholes by their very nature.
My first boyfriend broke up with me by writing out "I think we're better off as friends" on his cell phone and showing it to me. He was 17. You'll find someone better.
Did you guys ever talk at all in person? or was your entire relationship via sims?
that sucks :/
clever way to break up though.
That sucks, but a creative way to be broken up with. I would be really mad, though.
That sucks, but a creative way to be broken up with. I would be really mad, though.
Hahaha. Atleast he didnt leave where your house is burning down....
Ouch. That's cruel.
Although I have to say, the guy was pretty clever.
wowww.....that would be soooo funny if it was in a comedy film but its in reality thats just mean. i say you go date his best friend!! jkjkjk
#38 - On 04/12/2009 at 8:32pm by 22
sorry but i have to give the guy props for creativity :)
#39 - On 04/12/2009 at 8:33pm by ellebell
That is f'ed up. But the Sims 2 is awesome! Can't wait 'til number 3.
#27 no one said breaking up was easy, doesn't make a person less of a jerk for not having the decency to do it face to face. Just because something is hard isn't an excuse to be an asshole about the way you do it. Funny thing is back in the day people actually had to do it in person, and it didn't kill them. Weird I know, but then again I suppose we may have all devolved so much that it really is just too emotionally damaging for men (or woman as the case may be) in this day and age to do anything difficult in person. So of course it's totally acceptable to be a complete ass and wimp about breaking up, I mean they might just have to deal with someone's emotions, and you know life in general, and that's hardly an acceptable thing to expect. Life after all is scary... it always seems to end in people dieing...
YDI- anyone who has made herself and her boyfriend characters on the Sims is probably way too clingy and immature to have a relationship with. sorry.
#42 - On 04/12/2009 at 8:39pm by collegegirl8
Hahaha, that's actually very creative. Sorry it happened but he's pretty clever. :P
Hmm. Clever. kinda funny. Still sucks though. sorry.
That sucks big time.
Oh, well atleast you dated someone that creative.
Way to pick em'
#46 - On 04/12/2009 at 9:03pm by Maultet
wow, what a douche- at least you know he put some actual thought into how he would dump you
#27 you don't really know men apparently. There are a few main reasons in my experience why a man won't break up with a girl face-to-face. Most often, it's because they don't want to have to deal with all the questioning and crying that happens. When a guy breaks up with a girl there are questions and accusations and it goes on and on, and it's not usually like that the other way around. You are doubtlessly horribly alone and should always remain alone for having no clue what you're talking about.
#27:
After a certain point, basic respect and etiquette demand that you break up face-to-face. If a relationship has gotten as far as you describe, it is most certainly a must, unless a face-to-face is impossible (such as long-distance, and even then you should get as personal as possible such as over the phone.)
Barring extenuating circumstances (such as feared physical abuse), it is never ok to end a serious relationship without making some way for the other person to respond in real-time. Email, snail mail, Facebook/MySpace, The Sims, getting your friend to do it, etc. are out (unless you're in middle school and you think your relationship is serious when it actually isn't.)
Also, breakups are not the place for creativity. No one appreciates your artistic flair when you're rejecting them. Save banners, ball games, flashing lights, The Sims, World of Warcraft, puppets, hidden messages in food, poems, or any other self-expression for a different occasion.
maybe he thinks you spend too much time playing Sims. ha.
But yeah... that sucks. he is a douche.
The Sims provides plenty of methods of revenge...
PEOPLE PLAY SIMS!? WTFFF.
You made yourselves in Sims? Ok, I really like Sims but that's going a bit overboard.
Sorry about the break up though. You'll find someone better, just wait and see.
I'm pretty sure #27 was being satirical, lmao.
The Sims 2 is great! I bet you're excited for The Sims 3!
Yeah but that does suck. Who makes themselves and their boyfriend into Sims 2 characters anyways?
if a guy doesnt even have the balls to break up NOT using a game, hes not what you want anyway.
Sorry, but I had to laugh at that. He needs to grow a pair, but at least he's original. I'm sure a Sim breakup has never been done before.
wow, what a coward. I'm sorry. :(
Hmmm, 2 sides to every coin, I guess.
I came in here to say what a baby your ex is, and there is no redeeming aspect to his behaviour.
However, some of the posts here have helped me reconsider.
*Perhaps* this was his way of saying he thinks you are too much into the SIms game, and too little into real life and having a real boyfriend. In which case YDI.
However, I find the above very unlikely because normally boys of that age are far more into their computer games than girls are.
Still, a question to OP: Did you go to bed way after your BF the night before because you were playing on SIms?
hahahaa that has to be one of the most creative breakups ive ever heard of!
I'm sorry that your boyfriend - well ex?- is such an insensitive jackass.
In his defense, that is brilliant and really creative... but still sad for you =^(
In his defense, that is brilliant and really creative... but still sad for you =^(
it could be worse, he could always make a map in Halo 3 that says I fucking hate you.
But yeah you deserve someone better then that.
Haha, I make Sims of all my friends. I burn or drown them and then have a ghost town of all my buddies on the property where my boyfriend and I live. It's pretty fantastic.
creative ?
lol what a dick though :P
#68 - On 04/12/2009 at 11:00pm by dammn
haha awkward that you had the sims as your life though
Aww I make Sims out of my closest friends and boyfriend, too.
At least he didn't make his Sim get together with your best friend or your sister.
Don't worry. You'll live. I promise.
Well, I've never heard of that before... Very clever. If it were the other way like #22, that would be really neat.
But it's still insensitive. You're probably better off without him. :]
#71 - On 04/12/2009 at 11:14pm by Minstrels
Is The Sims 2 any fun?
You'll be fine.
:(
I dont know which is worse him dumping you through a computer game or you two playing sims 2 together and having yourselves as characters...but thats an asshole move on his part you dont need him he's pathetic.
#73 - On 04/12/2009 at 11:38pm by f_ckkl_fe
WTF is wrong with your ex? Geez, he's such a loser, good thing you guys break up. He's an ass.
dont play video games with your boyfriend that would be a major turnoff without saying
Hahahaa I do that with my Sims too!
I'm really sorry though. What an asshole. Drown his character. You know... erase the pool ladder. ;]
If he wants to end a relationship, at least he should man up and tell you in person. Those people who do that through games are fking immature. You're better off without him.
#78 - On 04/13/2009 at 12:07am by Sunako
For one thing - why hasn't any one of you thought of the possibility that her bf played too much SIM and so she just joined to spend time with him? And I do not really think the fact that they play the game or are characters in the game is the problem. The problem is the guy is an ass... though I have to tell you - not clever or unique. In Jan my bf dumped me by disappearing for 3 days and then popping up on Facebook having changed his relationship with status to his friend instead of me and then switched to MySpace to put status as "don't hate the playa, hate the game" with a sunglasses wearing smiley dude - gave me as a gift to her on own your friends and she proceeded to have me slap myself and then put me "on sale"... plus a whole lotta other fucked up shit.... so sorry but he is a loser, an ass, and unoriginal!!!!
If he wants to end a relationship, the least he could do is man up and tell you in person. Those who do that through video games, I don't care how creative they get, are fking immature. You're better off without him.
#80 - On 04/13/2009 at 12:10am by Sunako
LMAO! Clever
#81 - On 04/13/2009 at 12:10am by dang
FYL. That dude is obviously a pussy if he had to break up with you over the Sims. You're better off without him. :)
I can't believe there are people on here who think making themselves on the Sims is weird.
I also didn't know playing video games with your boyfriend would be a major turnoff.
Oh, the things I learn on FML.
Sims 2 be like a pussy way to braked up with someone
Sims 2 be a pussy way of break up with someone to my also.
Did you kill the Sim afterwards?
Though in all seriousness, you're obviously better off without him if he can't even do a face-to-face break-up.
#75 - I think this is the first time I've ever heard (a guy? maybe not?) refer to a girl playing video games with her boyfriend as a major turn off. Wouldn't it be nice to share interests and what ever happened to the whole "dude she actually likes video games, SWEET" factor. I mean, wow, hmmm, I don't quite know how to reply to that. I'm gonna have to go ponder this one for a while now... I'm beginning to have to question half the comments made to me by my male friends during the past decade.
fmylife is obviously way to life shattering for me... =p
ahahaha. Kudos to him, dude.
That's amazing.
This made my day.
87- Yeah, but guys prefer that girls play something...more action-related...it's kinda like telling a guy, "Hey, I play video games!" and then playing "Barbie's Adventures in Lalaland" or something. Not saying that this is what the OP does but yeah, video games =/= instant turn on for a guy.
Kill off his sim and take a screenshot. Make it his desktop background with the same note he left you. Then just sit back and enjoy the drama ensue :-)
Y is this a FML???? He got rid of himself for you!! Now you are single to find a MAN, not a boy, that isnt a coward and respects you and is most of all, is worth it... to be honest, I think you should thank him.
dayummmm son! yeah that sucks, but its funny. still sucks though. have his sim suck a dick.
how old are you, really? unless you're like 10 it makes sense
This is quite possibly the funniest thing I have ever laid eyes upon... You're boyfriend is hysterical... Oh, I'm sorry... EX Boyfriend :)
Maybe you should've pay more attention to him than the game and there was some circumstances for doing this. It was the smart move then.
If you are dating on sims, you are really too immature to be in a relationship in the first place
#90. The Sims is a simulation and strategy game developed by one of the leading video game producers in the world (Electronic Arts: FIFA, Spore, Rock Band, Madden, Sim City, Medal of Honor). It is the top selling computer game in history and has sold over 16 million copies worldwide. Males make up 50% of the player base. You should probably know the game before you talk shit. If you can tear yourself from Halo long enough.
Wow, that really sucks. What an asshole.
Not to step into the video game war, BUT (haha) I have to say, while the sims may be popular, in my personal opinion it is the dumbest game there is. Why do people want to create a life and home for their virtual humans, then live out their life and buy them pets, go on vacations and get jobs? instead of wasting your time living the life of a virtual human, why don't you just go outside and do it FOR REAL? Get some exercise!! On the other hand, other video games let you do something you normally couldn't just go and do (ie, pull off crazy tricks snowboarding, play a game in the NHL, run along walls, shoot some "bad guys", whatever!).... Sim's hardcores, sorry, no offense meant... but do you not feel as if it's a bit of a waste of time??
Also, while video game playing girls isn't a 'turn off' for me, I wouldn't say it's a 'turn on' or a quality that i look for...
Wow, what a dick. Creative, but still mean.
#102 - On 04/13/2009 at 3:41am by mno
@98 To bad 90 is right, what the fuck is hot about a chick playing the sims and simulating your life with them? that is just fucking weird. I don't want to date some chick who makes me as a sim and makes us get married and simulates our life together or some creepy crap. Not like you can even play sims with someone anyway it is a one player game. Sure EA makes some games that are bigger but SIMS isnt even close to Rock Band or Madden or Medal of Honor.
Maybe you should get off your computer more, go out more, and play better games. Don't simulate your relationship with a guy next time it is weird and kind of creepy. what 80 means is play something that a guy is going to want to play not just a bunch of kids.
wow.. that's an epic breakup... you'll laugh about it soon enough no worries. and that guy is a jerk to break up with you that way..
If you play the Sims then he was right to dump you. good for him
Uhh.....what a loser. What fag breaks up with their bf/gf on a game?
That's genius! Sorry about your asshole boyfriend, but at least you have a good annecdote now, along with a burning hatred for the sims!
Ohhh... I'm sorry for you
But he's really creative!
What a a-hole, that's even lower than getting dumped via relationship status on facebook or via msn/e-mail. Technology seems to ruin communication skills these days and some people have too poor social skills to break-up with you in person. It's a shame your boyfriend was one of those people, but he's not worth your time by a long shot.
#90- haha, yes I realise that, it's more the fact that #75 seemed to be encompassing video games (as a whole) as a complete and utter turn off to men. As in if a girl plays video games that's a major turn off. But obviously I was also exaggerating in my reply. No need to worry, my world hasn't actually been ruined... completely... there are still one or two fragments holding on.
That's creative, but very harsh.
Sorry. :X
wow, this guy needs to be a man. LOL K I TXT U I BREAK UP WIT U K!?
Creative? I don't think it's creative at all. It's just corny and shows that he hasn't grown up. If he wants to be 'creative' let him write the next Paradise Lost -- then I'll call him creative.
This just shows an immature person which probably considers barfing over himself 'hilarious' or 'anti-establishment' (if he even knows the latter word).
You're better off finding yourself someone with maturity and brain. He'll be like that dude on South Park in its Warcraft episode, stuck at the computer, balding, smelling of stale food, unwanted and unloved.
Haha, wow. At least it makes a better story than being dumped by txt.
lol....118, you are kind of right. But shut Up. Its kinda funny bc ive never heard of that as a form of break up before.
Creative way of being a pussy and not being man enough.
If he really wanted to be immature, he could have burned the house down like #35 said and killed all your friends family and pets. Then to really make his point, he couldve created a super model girlfriend living in his mansion at the top of the mountain, leaving you sad, poor and lonely. That would be Immature.
well that might be extremely insensitive. but the guy is funny...
As hard as it is to break up with someone, a person shoud have the decency to do it to your face. Indirect break ups are pussy moves and they really suck. At least you have a good story to tell though, once you get over the pain of the break up.
#101-You obviously never played the game before because you will/can do things in that game that you will never/can't do in real life.
I can't have a gypsy come by and give me a magic lamp, I can't make lobster, I will never own a business, if I do go on a vacation I can never meet Bigfoot, I can't live in medieval times, my skin tone/looks/clothes/money will always matter when it comes to relationships, I will never sleep with over thirty men and women, I will never be abducted by aliens, I can never grow a plant sim, I can never become a werewolf or vampire or zombie or witch much less meet them, I will never skip out on a bill, I will never be able to create a robot that caters to my every whim, I can't be a criminal mastermind/super hero, and I can't lock people I despise in houses with no doors and let them starve, put them in a pool with no ladder so they can drown, or feed them to a cowplant. Before you knock a game, actually know whats in it. Also, you might as well tell any hardcore fan of a game where you sit on your ass to play to get some exercise.
Also, why do people think Sims is the only game she plays? I play Sims, Call of Duty 4, Gears of War 1 and 2, Left 4 Dead, Grand Theft Auto 4, Dance Dance Revolution, Nintendo 64 games like Conkers Bad Fur Day and Super Smash brothers, and I am renting Mass Effect, Halo 3, and Fallout 3 from Gamefly. Just because she plays the Sims it doesn't she doesn't play the "better" games. Get over yourselves.

thats even worse than a text message breakup
What a pigheaded jerk!
you can do so much better than that! everybody deserves better than that.
one more thing, I read some of the comments above, and don't listen to those people. If you want to play a video game, do it, if you want to not play one, then don't do it.
Only losers get online and talk crap about what video games other people play.
And I don't think it's weird that you had him as a character.
He was a part of your life in every aspect. If you wouldn't have included him in the game he might have made a big jealous deal about it.
People judge everything.
Don't let it bother you.
You'll find someone more mature :)
wow what a douche. i think people are trying to think of mean ways to break up with people. but sims is a good way to get your mind off of things :D
Make his Sim character cook or something, so *hopefully* the character will set himself on fire. then YOU write him a note and say "I hope you can take a hint." :)
Similar thing happened to me but it was my boyfriends game and I decided to get on and play while he was gone. He made us two living together but I was in a maid costume and my mom and him were upstairs " woohooing" by his command. When he got home I asked him and he thought I got the message too.
In response to #10: Or, put his character in a pool with only a diving board and no ladder, so he can get in but can't get out. Surround the pool with a grove of trees and ovens/stoves, and make sure he turns them all on before getting in the pool.
#19 omg yes. he def needs to get of his purse and grow a pair
That's clever! It sucks for you, but you gotta give him some creativity points!
I'd be hurt, but at the same time broken. I love that game...
FYL indeed.
Admit it, it was clever. FYL indeed
Unless you did something really awful to him... then he is the f**king scum of the earth.
hahahahahahahaha thats freakin awesome
people saying, "oh, that's awesome!" "at least he was creative..."
what the fuck..
that doesn't mean they're still together. fuck off.
OP, sorry! feel betta
That has to be the most original way to dump a girl ever thought of.
He's smart. Great computer game, too. :D
Who breaks up through a videogame???? SMS is bad enough....
er, computergame. All the same brainerasing crap, anyway.
If you have University, cheat to get the cowplant on your lot and then feed him to it. No tombstone, no ghost of him to haunt you, and five days added to your life to boot from drinking his tasty remains. You'll feel at least a little better.
This is the most amazing thing I have ever heard.
wooooow, the insensitive side of me laughs at this jerk's creativity. But that sucks, jerk couldn't even do it to your face. Don't worry I just got dumped over text message today so no worries. lolz
#147 - On 04/13/2009 at 10:09pm by pirateslyfe4me
I think this is a case of the "magnificent bastard." I mean, that is actually kind of clever, but really...what a douche!
Oooo...cruel...but insanely clever.
im in agreement with #20... half of me thinks he doesnt have balls, the other half thinks it was clever... and the third half thinks... LMFAO...
# 122 Actually, I have played the Sims..... and uninstalled it.
BORING.
Now gentlemen, this is just bad form, see? Not how you do this... I hope the OP hasn't wasted too much time on this boyfriend.
It's okay, OP, just get another boyfriend, dime a dozen haha.
#152 - On 04/14/2009 at 4:27am by cecilia_weasley
hahahaha at least he was creative.
Ouch!!!! but pretty clever i have to adit
I was told by an ex that World of Warcraft was more important than I was to her....
at least he was clever about it...
FYL indeed.
But very creative.
Wow, very creative way to break up. Rude, but yeah.
#160 - On 04/15/2009 at 12:23pm by o_x
Wow. There are a lot of insensitive asses on here. Awesome? You are probably the same people that would totally do that to someone and then turn around and call them crazy for having any kind of reaction to it. And AGAIN... not original or creative!! Breaking up through games, txts, social networks, social network apps... it is all pretty much the same and is a coward way to do it... and most step it up a notch to make it cruel as well. It seems to be the new form of entertainment for people. Hell the guy that did it to me had it done later (though I would guess possibly other times by the same girl) on his wall by the girl he changed his relationship with status to... now that was kinda funny. (but he deserved it) And the game thing... people can turn any game into something dumb... there were people that used EQ as a dating service. My baby's dad was obsessed with that game and played sooo much I finally agreed to play to spend time with him - and then he started cybering with some woman on there and was pissed when I caught him and was pissed.... I think there are a lot of people, guys and girls, that kind of live in games and online - but when you look at the circumstances of the world these days... who wouldn't be happier in lala land? It is a nice and easy way to escape reality for awhile... and putting yourself and things in your life into the games is fairly normal.

he sounds like a piece of shit!
You have to admit it was clever. Be glad he took the time to come up with something like that instead of texting you.
haha thats worse then getting dumped by text message.
aw that's really funny lol but soo mean ): sorry
really this is the best dump story i've heard in a very very long time. you gotta admit, the immature little bastard has style.
ur ex is pathetic and lame
gee sorry 169 did i offend some asshole who thinks this shit is funny? is alright... karma will get your sorry asses
And yet again we have another example of the pratfalls of Nerd Love.
Haha this is actually the funiest thing i have heard all day not to be mean or anything
I don't know why people make it out to be weird to make someone you CARE about in a sim charatcer.
When you think about them alot so of course they'd end up in the game. When me and my friends play we sometimes add people we know into the game....it's always fun if you don't like them and something bad happens to them....xDD
ANYwho He's not creative, he couldn't do it the right way so fail.
You on the hand can show him up, I sure he's told you some interesting stuff about himself?...Hehe
Aww, that sad. Funny but sad... D:
as much of a dick move it was... thats really clever
Thats slightly creative.
But WAY fucked up.
Lmfao that guys pretty clever
WTF 22 it was a break up not supposed to be romantic
Oh yah YDI for dating guys lesbians are hot!
maybe next time you wont fall asleep on me while we are playing SIMS!
