Love, Money and Argument: Get out!

Get out!

By Anonymous - 31/12/2022 15:00

Today, during a small argument over clothes of all things, I totally lost my temper and broke up with my boyfriend. He is refusing to take me back and I’m now screwed as his wage paid about 60% of our joint bills. I may lose my flat. FML

Surprise!

By Anonymous - 13/12/2021 01:58

Today, my boyfriend told me he’d have a surprise for me when I got home. The surprise was he’d moved out, dumped me, and cut me off from his share of the bills, because he’s not interested in marriage and babies. I can’t afford the rent by myself so I’m going to have to move back to my mother's. FML

Today, after I got into an argument with mom's boyfriend, telling him to piss off because no one wanted him, and he did so, saying he was done putting in wasted effort, now he's gone I realise how much he did for us, or that his share of the bills paid the rent. We may lose our house because of me. FML

Today, my boyfriend broke up with me because I was "angry" at him. I was angry because last night he turned off his phone and left me locked out of the Airbnb that I had paid for. Until 3 am. In a foreign country. FML

Today, my boyfriend broke up with me, claiming moving in was a bad idea and he is the type who needs his privacy. It was his idea to move in, he had to convince me. Now we are stuck, under lease together for the next 6 months. FML

Today, I told my boyfriend his shirt and pants did not match and that he should change for dinner. All my belongings are now on the sidewalk. FML

Today, it took all 3 of my kids threatening to use their saved money to move out and into a flat together to make me realise just how much of an asshole my boyfriend is, and that by any definition I’ve been in a mentally abusive relationship for years, and ignored everyone’s attempts to help. FML

Today, my grown up, unemployed boyfriend stole 70 dollars from my wallet and tried to hide it in two different places in case he needed to ditch me and go out by himself. He got angry when I confronted him and stormed out. He feels perfectly entitled. I work, pay rent and buy food. FML

Today, I met with my realtor to close on a house for my boyfriend and me. While waiting for my boyfriend, I got a text message from him saying he was breaking up with me. I had already signed the papers on our house. Now I'm responsible for a mortgage that I can only afford with his help. FML

Time to move on

Today, I found out my boyfriend is cheating on me. His excuse was that I never had time for his needs anymore. He’s unemployed but I guess me working and studying to get my degree so we could move out of his parents’ house was too much. Now I have no place to go. FML

Today, I had to choose between staying with my boyfriend and moving out to a better job. I chose my boyfriend. He promptly left me because I didn't take the job. FML

Are you sorry for losing your temper because you realized that you were an idiot getting upset over nothing really, or are you sorry because you were an idiot and realized how screwed you are financially?

I would say you losing your temper is probably why he won't get back with you.

I sincerely doubt the clothes were the reason he decided to break up with you.

I don’t have one 1

he didn’t break up with her, she did it

He’s the one refusing to get back together with her, though, which I think counts as breaking up.

Refusing to get back together is in no way comparable with breaking up in the first place.

Just hurry up and get a boyfriend who doesn't have his head up his ass when it comes to clothes. How hard can that be?

i'm pretty convinced, people who lose their temper over small stuff, never really suffered the consequences of their own actions.

Maybe you learn, maybe you don't. Sounds like your ex-boyfriend learned. YDI.

sorry, but if you argue - seriously argue - about CLOTHES, you're not mature enough to be in a relationship by at least a decade.

Arguments can start over anything and for any reason. Wether or not they are mature, is determined by how they handle the argument. In other words, I disagree with you. They are not mature, because they broke up over something as little as clothes - not because they had an argument.
