Today, my grandma was diagnosed with lung cancer. We're very close, and I called my boyfriend, really needing some support. I'd barely told him what had happened, when he replied, "Babe, I'm in the middle of a game here. Call me later." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I called my boyfriend to have a shoulder to cry on because my grandpa died. As soon as I told him, he started crying and telling me how much he missed his grandmother, who died six years ago. I spent the majority of the phone call listening to him wail. FML
Today, I found out my grandmother passed away. When I told my boyfriend I began to cry. Instead of caring, he said "you're getting my bed wet," rolled over, and fell asleep. FML
Today, my grandma wasn't feeling well, so I went to her house to check on her. After about 20 minutes, I knew she was feeling better when she looked at me and said, "So, do you have a boyfriend yet? I pray every night that I get to live long enough to see you with a boyfriend." FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me at my grandma's funeral. FML
Today, my 65-year-old grandmother called and asked me to tell my boyfriend that she was flattered, but she's happily married. I have no idea what she was talking about and my boyfriend refuses to talk to me. FML
Today, one of my closest friends and I got into a fight. She ended the conversation with, "My grandma just had a stroke. Bye." I didn't believe her so I replied "That's great. Bye." Turns out her Grandma is in the hospital in critical condition. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me he couldn't spend the day with me as he had his grandmother's funeral. Lonely, I went shopping and I bumped into his mum having lunch with his 'dead' grandma. FML
Today, I took my girlfriend out for a romantic dinner, since we can't see each other this Valentine's Day. Halfway through, my aunt called, telling me my grandma had died. I had to leave because I was crying so much, leaving my girlfriend with a very pricey bill. FML
Today, I was feeling sick, so I called my boyfriend who lives down the street to come and keep me company. He replied with, "no, I can't come over, I'm busy, I'm playing xbox." FML
Today, while grieving over the loss of my Grandpa, I called my girlfriend for comfort. After I had cheered up, she said, "Don't worry, he went to Hell anyway." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Normally I'd agree, it's very stupid to break up with someone so hastily. Though I'd assume when OP called, she sounded incredibly upset, which her boyfriend should have heard and thought maybe the phone call was more important than a video game.

Make love not call of duty.

Dump him now. Honestly, he is super inconsiderate and is treating you like a pet, NOT a girlfriend. I am so so sorry about your grandfather. Feel better soon. Dump him. Please

I am so sorry about both your grandma's diagnosis and your boyfriend's reaction to the news. What is beyond me, how come there's over 600 YDI's here. Who in their right mind can check YDI on this? If there's one unanimous FYL, this should be it, IMHO. I know, unanimous FYL's don't exist, but 600+ YDI's??? Come on, people...

And you're probably still with him... Sorry to hear about your grandma though, I lost my mum to pancreatic cancer.

Just be like "call me when YOU actually care about me" and don't talk to him.

Dicks like this give gamers a bad name. I would have dropped the controller and talked if not drive to her house to talk in person

wow.. back when my husband and I had been dating for like eight months, he had just left my house when my dad called saying my grandma had cancer and I called him crying and he actually went and came all the way back to my house to comfort me.

OP, next time said boyfriend rings you up for Call of Booty, your reply should be. Sorry babe, I'm in the middle of a conversation and quality time with my grandmother. Call me in the AM.
