Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, my mom broke it off with her online boyfriend. That wouldn't be so bad if it weren't for the fact he's in the military, knows our address, and apparently is threatening to kill himself if she doesn't take him back. She tells me not to worry cause we have guns in the house, but I still don't feel safe. FML

Today, I was dumped. My boyfriend was too afraid to break up with me, so he sent the girl he cheated on me with. FML
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me. The constant harassment, threats and stalking by my ex-wife have finally driven her away. This is the third time this has happened. My ex physically beat the other two up, and now she’s scared away the one I wanted to marry. The courts have done nothing. FML
Today, my girlfriend of almost a year, and to whom I intended to propose on Thanksgiving, dumped me because her husband will be returning from Iraq soon. And he wants to have a "talk" with me. I didn't know she was married. FML
Today, I've been getting terrifying threats all day. Why? I broke up with my girlfriend and turned her in to the police after she and her friends shared their plan to firebomb a church during Sunday school. I didn't know I was dating a terrorist. I might need a new identity. FML
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me after 3 years. Why, do you ask? Turns out her dad used to bully my dad in highschool and my dad kicked his ass after all this time and sent him to the hospital. FML
Today, my girlfriend of three years broke up with me because I'm in the military and I'm gone too much. The reason I enlisted in the first place is because we agreed that the money and benefits I would earn would help us be able to start a family in the future. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me. Apparently, he spoke with my mom and the fact that she wants me dead is a huge red flag. FML

I feel bad for your ex girlfriend, it must suck to have a father who threatens the people who date their children.

You need to let your (ex)girlfriend know about his threats. Tell her you want to be with her but you can't deal with the stress he's putting on you, and she needs to tell him to back off. That way she will blame him if you say you can't be together anymore because he hasn't stopped threatening you.

I'd call the cops on him. But that's just me.

No offense but you kind've sound like a pussy who can't deal with confrontation. You're ending the relationship because you're too much of a coward to deal with her father and now you're shaking in your boots because she's "threatening" you for dumping her.

I don't know if you just made a typo, but the dad is threatening to kill him, not the girl.

How do you know he hasn't confronted the guy and is now just fed up with the fact the guy's an asshole?

Dads like that need to stop, it's weird. She can make decisions for herself and not have you threaten her boyfriends.

Explain it to her. If you want to be with her be. I don't get pricks like that. His daughter decides who she dates not him. Talk with her and call the police every time he threatens you.

Sorry bout all this, but if he is still in the military you can notify them of this, he can get fired for making any threats of the such. death threats will fire him so far into the hole his ass will burn..

You don't get fired from the military.

I am sure 22 means dishonorabley discharged which amounts to pretty much the same thing. It is just semantics.

It takes more than threats to make that a reality, so semantics aside, let's pay a visit to reality.

Yes. It does take more than threats to get someone fired. But other disciplinary action can be taken. Extra duty is a good example. It will go on their military record. Where it can then affect their promotion schedule.

I would give her half of the Chinese pear.

Ha! Love the reference.

find out who his CO is and report him for making threats against your life and harassment.

This further proves it. I've known so many fornerly nice, normal friends to go there and come back hardened. If by hardened you think racist, sexist, homophobic, and violent, then yes. Negativity affects me, so I hate them and the program. Then the JAs want extra money, attention, and discounts for spouting slurs and choosing to almost die? I never celebrate Vet. day, only labor. The underpaid overworked no discount getting citizens of the country deserve all the glory and praise. I'm all about first impressions and I once wanted to join believe it or not. To use it to get college help, not for patriotism. Then they cut school assistance too. But those impressions my friends. ruined it for me maybe forever. I won't tolerate bigots. Don't allow yourself to be bullied OP. Get your own self defense training and open carry license and weapons, and tell him to be a real man and fight you that way if he wants. Be just as crazy as the dickless roid rager. Or better, get a reatraining order and prison for him.

They "choose to almost die" for the freedom of everyone in this country, believe it or not. Just because you've had bad experiences with a few of them doesn't make all of them bad. Also, for someone who doesn't like negativity, you're being pretty negative.

#26 you're a disgrace, no wonder I've never seen you comment without being down-voted into oblivion before. just stop and shut up, especially on this topic.

Write him a letter and explain that you did not break up with her because you wanted to, but that you had to because of him. Guys who think like him rarely ever get a clue until someone tells them directly. At the very lease he should leave you alone and maybe he'll be less of an ass with the next guy.

The same thing happened to my husband when he was is in high school. The guy was a prison guard and actually assulted my husband (then 16) "just because he could". If course my husband did nothing about it, but thankfully the chick was just a high school fling
