Today, I was going to take my boyfriend to Napa. It's my birthday and I wanted to do something big since last year my fiancée called off the wedding. My boyfriend just broke up with me because I'm "clearly not over" my ex. This makes two consecutive birthdays alone in romantic hotels I paid for. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my boyfriend gave me the best birthday ever, then promptly broke up with me at midnight to get back with his ex, because he "didn't want to ruin my special day." FML
Today, my boyfriend treated me to a surprise romantic dinner, got me a huge balloon bouquet, a dozen roses, and a beautiful card for my birthday. Too bad it's his ex's birthday and not mine. FML
Today, for my birthday, I got a hotel room for me and my boyfriend. He decided that spending time with a female friend was more important than spending time with me. FML
Today, it was my birthday. My boyfriend made me breakfast in bed, then we went out shopping, had a picnic, watched a good romcom, had a fancy dinner, and ended the day with great sex. And when the clock struck twelve, he dumped me. FML
Today, I pointed out to my boyfriend how Valentine's day, my birthday, and our one-year anniversary were all coming up in the next few weeks. He then promptly broke up with me. FML
Today, I broke up with my boyfriend, since we weren't getting along. When I got home, I remembered that today is his birthday. Him and all our friends now think I'm a total bitch. FML
Today, It was my fiancé's 21st birthday party. It ended with him too drunk to walk and wailing about how much he misses an ex girlfriend of his that he dumped 4 years ago. FML
Today, it's my birthday. My boyfriend told me he was too busy studying for finals, but that he'd take me out another day instead. He later drunk-dialled me from a party demanding a lift back home. FML
Today, it's my birthday. I woke up to a text message from my boyfriend, breaking up with me. When I commented on his impeccably bad timing, he admitted he'd forgotten it was my birthday. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me he wants to break up. But not until after our anniversary tomorrow, because he's already gotten dinner reservations for us. FML

I think I agree with your boyfriend. Or ex-boyfriend, rather.

4: just because the OP might have money, doesn't mean her life isn't ******. Money isn't everything. OP: I'm really sorry, but if he's going to be that way, he's not someone you want to be with anyway. p.s. happy birthday!

Um... it is plainly clear that you are not over your ex-boyfriend. You're still trying to get over it. Just forget about it already and move on... unless you want history to repeat itself.

Have you never experienced this? She is obviously trying to move on, by making new memories. Saying "just move on" to someone who is obviously trying is terribly insensitive. I can't believe you would say that to another human being, honestly.

Her brand of "moving on" was to produce a similar event with the resolution to make it a positive one. It backfired. Instead of looking at the past, she needs to look at the future. Although this incident didn't necessarily itself contribute to the breakup, it is an example of what might've led to the breakup (as her now ex's comment may suggest). Even if it was her birthday, digging up the past isn't always the greatest idea. It isn't a callous observation; it's just a push in the right direction. The original comment was merely supposed to be quick, short, and to the point. In answer to your question - yes, I have. I can't think of a person who haven't in some way or form. Naturally, some are worse than others. Mine are probably somewhere in the middle. Certain emphases typically prevent me from taking less-than-peculiar action, but what I described above generally works well. Learning from the past is good. Dwelling on it, not so much. Right now, she appears to be doing the latter. She should be doing the former.
