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

Today, my boyfriend broke up with me after 2 years of being together. The reason? I don't enjoy playing video games as much as he does. FML

Today, my boyfriend broke up with me over the phone. He said there was someone else, and that he has been in love with her for a while. Turns out, the new girl was his online video game character. I got dumped for a video game. FML

Today, my girlfriend broke up with me after I beat her once again in a trivia game. She said that I was cheating, and if I was cheating on the game, I was definitely cheating on her as well. FML
Just be a man
At this point, it's just self-sabotage
Today, I find video games very unattractive and unmanly. I told a great guy that he had to choose between me and his video games, and he immediately told me he chose video games, then asked me to leave. Whatever, loser. FML

Today, I found my boyfriend playing games when we have 5 million things to do, but the bastard picked me up, put me in the hall, shut the door in my face, and barricaded it with the sofa. I texted him, threatening to break up unless he opened the door; he texted back to leave my key behind when I left. FML

Today, my boyfriend and I broke up. He said it was because he wanted to 'do his own thing'. So gaming 24/7 like he has for the past two years of our relationship, then. FML

Today, my boyfriend broke up with me. He said it was because his online gaming friends don't like it when I ask him to spend time with me. FML

Thanks, I guess
Today, my ex-girlfriend came over to console me after a breakup. After beating me repeatedly in Mario Kart, she decided to leave. FML

You dodged a bullet, trust me. I dated 2 people on WoW, first was immature like your ex and the second one I ended up marrying. You'll find the gamer of your dreams, keep your head up OP :)

#26, is it so hard to believe that a girl can be better than a boy at video games?

That was my initial reaction to reading that comment, but I honestly don't think that's what he meant. At least, one hopes xD

#34 what i meant was that it wasn't a real reason to break up with ur girlfriend for , its not a big deal if my gf to won or even better then me in a game, for sure everyone is better in a specific way in different things ;)

What an idiot XD When I win against my boyfriend he gets fired up to beat me and so do I. This just makes it more fun!

Someone does not know how to lose. I wish my girlfriend played video games with me. Best of luck in finding a better boyfriend.

I want to know what you warned him about. Did you tell him that you were amazing at this game, and he just didn't believe you?

Indeed if she told him something like "I play this a lot and I'm really good at it" and he still thought naaah I'll easily beat her that's generally a red flag right there

Why would she need to warn him about anything?

She shouldn't. All the fault in this FML is squarely on the dude's shoulders from what little info it gives us. There may be a backstory, but I bet he's just one of those gamers that get really irritated and verbally abusive when they suck at a game.
