Today, at exactly midnight, I get a text from my boyfriend saying we were done. I had just seen him 4 hours ago when we were out celebrating my birthday, and asked why he didnt just tell me then. He replies 'I couldn't break up with you on your birthday but i wanted it to be over ASAP' FML

Today, my boyfriend gave me the best birthday ever, then promptly broke up with me at midnight to get back with his ex, because he "didn't want to ruin my special day." FML

Today, it's my birthday. I woke up to a text message from my boyfriend, breaking up with me. When I commented on his impeccably bad timing, he admitted he'd forgotten it was my birthday. FML

Today, my boyfriend told me he wants to break up. But not until after our anniversary tomorrow, because he's already gotten dinner reservations for us. FML

Suspicious

Today, I texted my boyfriend, asking him to meet me when he finished work. Paranoid as he is, he took this to mean that I wanted to break up with him, and is ghosting me into oblivion. All I wanted was to see him on our 4-year anniversary. FML

Today, my boyfriend broke up with me two days before my birthday. Only to make it worse, I found out that he had been texting my mother on how to break up with me. To make it even worse, she was giving him tips. FML

Today, my boyfriend dumped me. He decided he would be a gentleman and do this to me at work, over text, during a rush of unsympathetic customers, the day before our anniversary. FML

Deception

Today, I threw an elaborate surprise birthday party for my boyfriend of four years. He thought we were going to a quiet dinner but when we arrived, thirty of his friends jumped out and surprised him. Instead of kissing me to thank me, he broke up with me because of how easily I had lied to him. FML

Today, my boyfriend told me to stay home, because he wanted to come by to give me a birthday surprise. Later on, he came by, posted a note, rung the bell and left. The note was a break up note. FML

Just because he dumped her doesn't make him a loser. If anything he was nice about not ruining her birthday

#2....please go burn in hell. OP- that sucks, but it was just a tiny bit nice that he waited, though he shouldn't have done that. At least you had fun during your birthday while it lasted. BTW, I'm glad none of the FML's today used the word "proceeded" :D

Number 2, how does she deserve this? That was a pussy move. If you're going to leave someone, have the balls to leave them in person. I'm sorry that happened. Oh well, at least you can go out and find someone else now. Why did he has to leave you so quickly though? Sorry to say it, but it sounds like he was cheating on you. I hope not. Just in case, you should probably go get yourself tested for STDs, even if you used condoms or had limited sexual contact. Regardless, I'm sorry.
