stop whining. and first.

Op, we all feel for you, your life sucks more than any I've seen. I would like to recommend you try for reincarnation ;p

So you'd be happy if all the love of your life got you for your birthday was a card from your pet? Either your standards are too low, or you're an idiot. I can't decide.

So the fuck what? He got you a card, put MORE thought into it than just "Happy birthday", and then went to go make a living. Take off your imaginary tiara and get a life. There's this new thing called 'friends'.

The man has to go to work, thats where he gets the money to fuel his lifestyle and possibly look after his gf. Some bosses wont give a damn whos birthday it is work is work.

remembering someones birthday does not make them a fuckin prince it makes them a curtous person!!! someone with manners! something you obviously lack #1!! to op didn't you have the cat? think on the brighter side! lol but yeah your boyfriends a jerk I'm sorry happy birthday tho

he has to work to buy your princess ass nice gifts so you don't bitch like you are now

thought that counts dbag

:O You should give him the silent treatment for a whole week for doing that to you

Yes, be passive-aggressive instead of actually discussing and resolving the problem. What could go wrong!?

Totally. Passive aggressiveness solves all! As for the OP, God forbid someone actually have to work to make money. That might be a foreign concept to you, but not for the average person. Maybe he isn't able to get you anything money wise, so he thought the card from the cat would be a nice gesture, while he went to work to earn the money you two need to live on?

ur not home alone if u had the cat

That's a bit over the top.... My husband has misses 3 of my last 4 birthdays as well as our anniversary due to deployments. At least he was there, remembered, and did SOMETHING for her! Its a fucking birthday, the entire world doesn't stop to make sure you get everything you want. Most bosses would never give someone a day off for their gf birthday, at most let them off a couple hours early for their WIFE'S bday! Stop your bitching op and grow up.

Ohh noo!!! He was going to work making a living and you were left all alone to do nothing? That's too cruel!

he could have said happy birthday to OP or left her a gift. a card that he bought and signed for the cat doesn't seem appropriate in my opinion.

Why? He remembered it was her birthday, and knew she liked her cat. I thought it was kinda cute and sweet, rather than just the boring "here's a card I wrote both our names in" he actually thought about it. Bitches be unkind, bro This dude is just a working guy who, for whatever reason, didn't get his ungrateful girlfriend a present on her birthday. She shouldn't be expecting something, should be glad he remembered and shouldn't have thought that he would be around KNOWING that he needed to go to work that day. At least he HAS A JOB, which by OP loneliness on that day, would either assume she doesn't; or that she's too lazy to work because of her unreasonable sense of self worth. "Because it's her birthday"

Yeah, I thought it was cute/sweet too. Why would you expect him to take the day off work for your birthday anyway?

...because he's her boyfriend and they might spend the day together...?

He might have tried but not gotten the time off. A lot of places will still say no even if you ask more than a month in advance.

Not necessarily. Today is Sunday, many people don't work Sunday, he just probably has a job where he does have to work on weekends.

She most likely didn't submit this on sunday though. These things usually take awhile to get posted you know.

...What? At least he remembered. It's not like he can take a day off just because it's your birthday, you know. The fact that you were alone all day was your own fault, get some friends.

Or a job. Leech.

be happy he doesn't quote Tim Allen

Yeah, at least he has a job. Jeeezzz

Hopefully he planned a nice dinner or something.

I don't see how this is an FML. At least he remembered; he gave you a card, and then he had to go to work, and you're complaining he hadn't gotten you a present. Greedy, aren't we? YDI

AND he made the card appear as if it had been signed by the cat. That's creative

That's what I was thinking. So you had the Purrrrfect birthday? < ---- I love this guy ^^

I guess boyfriend thought the OP would get tricked into thinking the card was from the cat, and the boyfriend didn't even mind that he got no credit for it! What a great and selfless guy.

well... Happy Birthday :)

He obviously remembered, he wrote you a card from your cat which is clearly his way of trying to do something nice for you since as a guy he probably assumes you'll think that's adorable, and then you begrudge him a honest day's work from what is most likely his livelihood while you bitch about being "alone". Jesus Christ, you are a piece of work.
