Today, I came home from work to find that my girlfriend had sold all of my N64 and Atari games and both the consoles and bought me a PS4 with the money. While I was standing there in shock, she kissed me on the cheek and said, "I know, I'm the greatest." FML
Collection
Black Friday
70% off something you didn't need, a stampede and a cart that crashes at checkout. Thanks, Black Friday.
Today, I entered my bedroom, ready to play some COD on my xbox 360. Instead, I find a note where my xbox used to be. It read "You think you can cheat on me and get away with it? Fuck you. I smashed the hell out of your stupid xbox." It was signed by my girlfriend. I never cheated on her. FML
Today, my girlfriend called me and told me she "had a surprise for me when I got home" in a sexy voice. So I hurried home, only to find a note saying she left me and took my dog. Deeply depressed, I went into the living room. She took my TV also. FML
Today, my girlfriend destroyed my Xbox, because somewhere in her psycho brain she actually thought it would get me to pay more attention to her, even though I only play 3 hours on a Sunday. Joke's on her, I bought a new one, she’s back on the streets, and I play it a whole lot more now. FML
Today, my fiancé pawned off my engagement ring so he could buy himself a PS4. FML
Today, my girlfriend of 8 months and I broke up. We decided to give back everything we ever bought for each other. I gave her the stuff she bought me and when I asked for my stuff she said she'd sold it and spent the money on herself. FML
Today, my boyfriend of more than two years told me in front of all of our friends that he'd trade me for some Playstation 3 games. I laughed it off because I thought he was kidding. He made it clear that he was serious. FML
Today, my girlfriend bought herself a brand new iPad and iPod Touch, and returned my aging iPod and Kindle, which she constantly steals for her own use. She considers it my Valentine's Day present. FML
Today, I came home to find out my roommate sold my PS4, because, "You don't use it anymore." FML
Today, after having my husband ask if I 'had any plans' for the weekend, and him mentioning that he got me something special, he played his PS4 for hours, ignored me, then finally took a break to hand me a tiny box of chocolates. I can't even be mad because he looked so proud. FML
Today, I invited a few of my co-workers over to play video games. Within an hour, my wife had gotten drunk, grabbed my controller, told me to "get back in the kitchen", and described to everyone in blood-chilling detail how she took her first boyfriend's virginity. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Childhood Ruined... I'm so sorry

She probably (hopefully) had the best intentions, but that doesn't explain why she thought it was normal to sell someone else's possessions.

that sucks, but she put in a lot of effort and tried. gotta respect that
mukduk 21
I wouldn't consider her selling someone else's personal belongings without their permission as something she put a lot of effort into...
countryb_cth 38
What effort. She sold his stuff. Used the money from selling his stuff. To buy a new game. She didn't even use her own money.
laden_swallow09 35
There. Is. Absolutely. Nothing worthy of respect here, save for maybe not putting her six feet under right then and there.

You don't "gotta respect" anything about that. She sold his stuff to buy him something. The only way it would be any good is if she had sold her own stuff to buy him the system.

I would never respect anyone who without my consent sells MY items and/or uses the money....NEVER!!!
Saraishi 25
No, she gets no respect. She sold off her boyfriends' private property without his consent. Not only that but the items she sold were very dear to OP; she sold his childhood memories.

In my opinion "putting in a lot of effort" means picking up extra shifts at work or getting another part time job to buy someone a gift, not listing another persons possessions on Ebay
Pentium_4 27
you all bring up good points
sweatynate 13
That sounds like a major breach of space.
millagramssxe 24
Hasn't she ever heard that if it's not yours, don't touch it?
Crazyjohnb 23
Well. she tried to get him a great gift and I'm guessing she threw some of her own money in too. it sucks but she had good intentions. Ps4s are cool

This makes my inner child cry
ashweaver 12
Might as well have sold your dignity as well
stephanyovalle 15
If she wanted to give you a PS4 so bad, she should have earned and saved that money other way. What was she thinking? Those weren't even hers! Hope you can get them back op, good luck

...The greatest childhood ruiner!!! How dare she!!!

I am a girl, I fully support you breaking up with her and taking her to small claims court. I would never touch my boyfriends old consoles and games. It would be like him giving my batman collection to a todler to play with.
MrFloooo 18
Why is it important to state that you are a girl?
UhHuhHoney 20
Woooahhhh calm down now...
DedeleMan 21
that's slightly drastic, don't you think?
garrett_8614 14
Not really. I'm assuming we're talking around $500 here considering a PS4 was bought with the money. OPs girlfriend has: 1. Stolen property 2. Sold that stolen property 3. Being a terrible girlfriend for stealing and selling your boyfriends possessions without permission. That type of stuff can be hard to get back so hopefully you guys can work it out and somehow fix this.
demonwolfmaster 26
Fully agree, any one touches my older systems for a new one you would be an ex in 10 seconds, along with getting my stuff back or its court
jackycat 17
Heck yeah, I'm not even a gamer and I'd be livid over that. Definitely press charges if she didn't get my collection back very soon.
kirasant 19
Yes, this. It's theft, pure and simple. I don't care what her intentions were. She clearly has zero respect for other people and thinks that she can make unilateral decisions about their belongings.
chef4money 12
Technically she stole and sold his items. She can be arrested and charged for doing that. I don't think this commenter is overreacting at all.
llama612 27
Completely agree. Even if she had the best intentions, what she did was wrong, and if she can't get his stuff back and then refuses to pay him back for the entire cost of the collection (so possibly more than the money she sold them for) he has every right to dump her and then take her to court to get the money back.
toxxickittyy 19
As someone who owns every console (old ones included) this would devastate me. It was NOT her right to do this at all. It doesn't matter what her intentions were she should have asked and not just assumed OP wanted to get rid of those things for a PS4.

At what point did she think it was okay to sell your possessions without asking? If you wanted it done you would've done it yourself.
