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

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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

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.

You should dump your boyfriend.

OP I am really sorry about your grandma. As for your boyfriend. If he can't be there for you when you really need him, then maybe it's time to let him go and find someone who will be.

Any guy that puts a game before his girlfriend, is a problem. I'm sure he could tell she was upset over the phone, and if he couldn't, then he doesn't know her very well, probably because he's always playing his dumb games. I'm sorry OP. I hope everything goes well.

I play video games like crazy but I'll sure as hell stop what I'm doing to listen to my girlfriend. That is of course, if I had one. :(

Judging from the FML, I can't say if the boyfriend is a dick, or trying to be considerate because he knows he distracted.

Was your boyfriend playing a video game, or is he an athlete in the middle of a game?

You don't deserve it but did you actually tell him about it or did he just shut you off before he knew what happened. Also, what kind of game. Video game or a sport because i've done that to people before when i was in a rugby game and they called. I don't know the whole situation enough to know whether he's a douche or not.
