Today, my girlfriend of 10 months moved to Europe and we may never see each other again, so I gave her a $200 sterling silver heart necklace as a goodbye present. She gave me a pack of gum. Cinnamon, which I'm allergic to. FML
Collection
College Life
Packed lecture halls, a sketchy roommate and frat parties: welcome to college, the real thing.
Today, my girlfriend and I decided to exchange presents for our birthdays. I spent $100 on perfume and Victoria's Secret clothes. She bought me a bag of lifesavers, then asked me to leave because she wanted to take a nap. FML
Today, my girlfriend told me she wanted to take a break. At least she gave me a parting gift. Lice. FML
Today, I bought my girlfriend a very expensive necklace. I gave it to her thinking she'd be extremely happy. Instead she was mad at me because my gift for our anniversary was better than hers. FML
Today, I gave a girl I like a $200 diamond necklace to express how much she means to me. She gave me a hug and told me she didn't want to lose me as a friend. Nor did she want to lose her new necklace. Today, I got a $200 hug. FML
Today, my girlfriend of 8 months and I broke up. We decided to give back everything we ever bought for each other. I gave her the stuff she bought me and when I asked for my stuff she said she'd sold it and spent the money on herself. FML
Today, my boyfriend bought me a silver necklace. I have a silver allergy, but I thanked him anyway and encouraged him to return it. I found out later that he knew about my allergy all along and bought it on purpose so he could return it, get a refund, and still look good. FML
Today, this girl I've been talking to texted me, saying she was going to visit. Trying to be sweet, I bought her $50 worth of chocolate and a cute card. Turns out she meant to send that text to her ex. Seems like the only thing I'll get from this relationship is diabetes. FML
Today, I lit candles and scattered rose petals on the floor and on the furniture to surprise my girlfriend. When she came in, she sneezed uncontrollably because apparently she’s extremely allergic to these particular roses. The night ended with me driving her to the ER instead of dinner. FML
Today, I found out that my ex gifted a special handcrafted necklace I made for him to his new girlfriend. She wears it on all her socials. FML
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me. She came over to see me one last time. We hugged for minutes and cried; it was a touching moment. Just after she left, I realized my wallet that I had on the table beside us was gone. FML

Why would you buy an expensive item if you MAY never see her again? Were you trying to secure maybe-future-sex?

Wow, FYL. I would've taken it back and said that she didn't deserve the last 10 months of my life.

#12, I buy more stuff for my guy than he does for me, actually. That sucks, but hey, at least you don't have to deal with her anymore.

i was really annoyed by all the dudes in these comments saying girls are materialistic bitches who only care about taking a man for all he's worth. but after reading #18's comment i see their point. and this FML. i guess some chicks are, regretfully, not that awesome. just keep saying to yourself, good riddance to bad rubbish. but you are a sentimental fool for buying an expensive piece of romantic jewelery for a girl who is leaving without you. don't you get the message when someone ditches you?

I don't get why you would buy something that expensive for someone that you haven't even been with that long who you may never see again. >.>

#12 is right. This sounds selfish. You give her this necklace and expect something in return. If you loved her as much as it sounds, the necklace was so she could remember you. It is hard to remember someone from a trivial piece of food. Next time ask to take a picture.
