Today, I got a check for $100 for a random selecting at work. My boyfriend’s reaction? Light it on fire out of jealously. FML

Today, my coworker got a raise by making our boss give me a pay cut for doing his job while he was slacking off. As we were heading home for the day, he found $100. FML

Today, my boyfriend came home, complaining about not having enough money for bills. He then pulled a stack of lottery tickets out of his bag, saying, "I hope one of these wins." FML

Today, I was in a bad mood after being stuck in traffic for 2 hours and late for work. I was walking to my building when I saw a 100 dollar note flying my way. A man called after me for it, but being selfish I took the note in my pocket as a little reward. That man was my boss. Yes, I'm fired. FML

Today, at my workplace, $200 checks were given to every employee for how well the corporation was doing. The temps didn't get any. Guess who was the only temp. FML

Today, it was sister’s birthday. I decided to give her money instead of a present, because I couldn’t come up with a gift idea. When she opened the envelope and took the $100 out, she looked at me and asked me if this was the best I could’ve done. FML

Today, I got a sweet promotion at my job. Instead of being happy and celebrating with me, my boyfriend broke up with me because he is jealous that I'm more successful than he is. FML

Today, after working another double shift because I want to buy my boyfriend a really expensive anniversary present, I get to his apartment to find him calculating in how many paychecks he'll be able to afford a Caribbean getaway. For himself. FML

Today, my boyfriend gave me a card for my birthday and told me to open it 10 minutes after he'd gone; I waited for 5. In the card was written, "It's not working out, but here's $20." FML

That is some major red flags on him. A good boyfriend or friend in general is excited and happy for you when good things happen to you. I would rather be alone than with someone so unbalanced.

you aren't dating a two year old are you?

Shouldn’t he have been... I don’t know, happy for you?

Ask the company to reissue the check. Then, cut your boyfriend’s dick off and dump him for not having a dick.

If he acts that way towards money how's he going to react if you have a child?

A bit offtopic, right? What does a child have to do with any of this?

I think they're saying this person isn't the "get married and have a family with" sort. If he'll set a check for money, from a prize on fire because he's "jealous," would ya want to stay with him and maybe have some kids? Because I wouldn't trust someone like that around a kid. They sound like they _are_ a child. That likes setting things on fire.

Get out of that toxic relationship, if he lights things on fire out of jealousy that is a clear sign he is insane (in the bad way) and you should get away from him

I hope that stunt cost him your relationship.

You’re dating a childish asshole with really low self confidence. Don’t waste any more of your time with him. Though you may try and get that $100 out of him before you dump his man baby ass.

Like many others have pointed out, that sort of thing is a sign of controlling, potentially violent behavior. You should thank him for showing you his true colors before it was too late for you to make him nothing more than an unpleasant bit of personal history.

Please tell me you broke up with him after this incident.
