Not now, Dave

Today, my caring way too much about proper grammar got out of hand when I corrected my girlfriend during a talk about her dying grandmother. FML

There's a difference between caring about grammar and being a dick about it. Learn some manners.

Grammar nazi! Do you spend time on forums perhaps? Let the "-1's" begin!

Some people just know when their comment will get down voted. Also, the forums are pretty much just grammar nazis and people with no sense of humor.

Today, my beloved grandmother passed away and I tearfully let out my feelings to my boyfriend, all he cared about was my gramma, FML

That's just because you didn't empathize enough with your girlfriend. So ydi.

Empathy: Understanding and entering into another's feelings

We know what empathy means, that's not why you're being down voted.

Who cares about downvotes? I'd like to understand why people think that the lack of tact of OP doesn't depend on his lack of empathy.

Agreed. If it's a topic that sensitive, Grammar shouldn't even be an issue.

Please learn that sometimes grammar pedantry syndrome is something that just kicks in and you have no control. If you can't learn that, I sincerely hope you start having that syndrome so you know what it feels like

Her grandma is more important than her grammar, you know! It was a bit rude of you; hope your girlfriend understands you weren't trying to be a jerk...

Given the circumstance, it was more than a bit rude, it was a dick move. I really don't think his girlfriend needs to understand anything more than that, right at this moment.

I know; I voted YDI. However, the guy was clearly aware that he was wrong. I don't think he meant to hurt her feelings.
