Today, my boyfriend broke up with me, because apparently I need to "grow up". He's the one who excessively plays Call of Duty and still has Pokémon and Bionicles in his room. FML

Dude, your boyfriend broke up with you and you posted a whiney FML about it? Who -really- needs to grow up?

Yep, you definately need to grow up. There's nothing wrong with playing video games and having 'collectables' (aka Toys) as long as they don't take over your life. Your childish reaction to this breakup shows me that you need to grow up regardless if he does or not.

Ha. Pretty much the same exact thing happened to me. We lived together for 2 years, he had a lego collection and would play Halo/Skate for hours and hours. Then broke up with me telling me it was time for me to grow up.

Just because you play computer games, doesn't make you immature. I agree slightly with #71

LOL. I love how everyone is all, "stop whining on this website! That proves your immaturity!" If that was logic that this website went by, fmylife.com would not exist. I think she just finds it ironic that he's calling her immature when he plays video games and Pokemon at what I'm assuming to be an age where you should probably put that stuff behind you. No need to get all critical.

There's nothing wrong with Call of Duty, that game is rated MATURE (17+) for a REASON you DUMBASS! And, if you came to fmylife.com with this stupid story, he's right, you do need to grow up.

growing up is not a matter of what hobbies/interests you have--it's more about the outlook you have on life. sorry hun, but the world does not revolve around you and your interests, hence why he told you to grow up

Sweetheart there is NOTHING WRONG with a guy playing Call Of Duty. Most of the guys I know play that game including the guy I'm with and they're respectable & mature guys.
