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

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
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?

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.

You can just feel the betrayal through the screen. Does she not understand the amount of work and memories laced into older games? OP should have her help get them back, then dump her.

Dump her

This is actually pretty fitting!

If your not going to dump her then do the Same thing lol. If she has a stuffed animal or something, sell all of them and get a small Beenie baby with the money. Then go kiss her on the cheek and say " I know I'm the greatest ".

I actually think that it would be best to dump her. I wouldn't touch my BFs stuff without asking first. It shows that she is careless. She only cared about herself. And some of that stuff you cannot replace, to people saying "Buy it Craigslist!" Smh..

I was in shock just reading that. I have all my games and consoles since Nintendo. I can't imagine someone just taking them without my knowledge and selling it all, even if they thought they were doing something 'nice' for me... by using my own stuff...

I'm sorry bro. You have to get rid of her.

Just emulate them, we won't tell. I mean, sure, it sucks losing the physical copies, but how often were you using them anyway? I can't imagine you sat around playing the same old video games all the time. I'm coming across as insensitive, but that's really not my intention. I'm just saying that this was a misguided gesture that could, in the end, be more important than your collection. You lost something you cherished, but your girlfriend may care about you more than you knew. (Or less like other people are saying, depending on how long you've dated).

It's not about how often he used them, it's the fact that they were his personal possessions and she had no right to go behind his back and sell them without his permission. The gesture was not only misguided, but completely illogical and inconsiderate.

Playing an emulation isn't the same thing at all. Games like that are absolutely priceless to their owners. And as an avid NES player - damn straight I play the same old games all the time. **** outta here.

34- No, you're not JUST being insensitive, you also have no ******* idea what the **** you're talking about. What are you, 13? Have you no idea how difficult it is to replace that kind of stuff? I know for a fact that it took literally years – decades – to amass and collect items like that! Unless money was no object, he could just buy everything back easily, but if that were the case, he would have bought himself a PS4 for himself by now. YOU can take the easy route and download emulators, but you DO NOT tell a fellow gamer to "just download an emulator" especially after his dipshit girlfriend sold everything. God, you're ******* stupid!

I don't care if it was a collection of porcelain ducks. She decided that she had the right to dispose of someone else's possessions, never considering that she may be in the wrong. This is clearly someone that has zero respect for her boyfriend and thinks that she knows whats best for him.

I must be stupid because I don't value physical objects over the experiences they bring you. Lmao, god, you people are dense.

I own every console and game I emulate to preserve the old consoles, BUT, if my significant other went behind my back and sold my collection to buy me a gift... I would be ABSOLUTELY FURIOUS with ENDLESS RAGE. I would seriously seek legal recourse.

I feel like cuddling my old nintendo right now & telling it, that Mommy would never sell it! Never!

This causes me physical pain. I realize that you may love her, but if she was my gf I would be pissed.
