Today, it's the five year anniversary of my father's death. I was cuddling with my boyfriend and crying about how much I missed him. He replied with, "Sometimes, I think you just like to hear yourself talk." FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I called my boyfriend to have a shoulder to cry on because my grandpa died. As soon as I told him, he started crying and telling me how much he missed his grandmother, who died six years ago. I spent the majority of the phone call listening to him wail. FML
Today, my partner and I were cuddling on the couch, watching TV when she smiled and murmured, "You smell like my dad." FML
Today, I was crying because my cat died. My boyfriend cupped my face in his hands, looked me straight into the eyes and said, "I love seeing you cry." FML
Today, my mother and I were discussing how we couldn't believe it's been nearly a year since my dad died. Not paying attention, my husband absentmindedly added, "Time flies when you're having fun." FML
Today, I saw my dad for the first time in almost five years, at his funeral. FML
Today, I got back home from work and casually asked my dad, "What's up?" He casually replied, "Wishing I'd had a son instead." and stared glassy-eyed at me until I left the room. FML
Today, I was talking to my boyfriend on the phone. After a short pause I hear him say "I love you." Smiling I say, "I love you too." Then he says, "I was talking to my dog." FML
Today, my boyfriend laid his head on my bare chest and said, "You're like my mother." FML
Today, I was texting a friend of mine. She mentioned it was her dad's birthday. I typed, "Tell him 'Happy Birthday' from me!" and as I pressed send, I remembered her dad was dead. FML
Today, my boyfriend brought up the time he said he'd love me until the day he died. He continued by saying, "So, let's just pretend I died today." FML

People take different amounts of time to heal. But your boyfriend is an insensitive dickwad. Get him dumped or be forever the stupid chick that stayed with the insensitive dickwad. Your call.

What a jerk. You dump that piece of garbage and go find someone that will help you deal with the loss not shit on your head for it. My wife lost her mother 4.5 years ago, and there are days that she misses her so bad. Sunday was mothers day and was a hard day for my wife. Like #232 said everyone takes different amounts of time to heal.

He's probably right.. But that was horrible timing. Save that conversation for a more appropriate time. Jackass.

"See! This is why we can't have nice things!" Girls who date guys like this because "OMG HE'S HOT", or whatever... eh. YDI. I'm fairly sure such a remark or thought process didn't come out of nowhere.

Even if she does like to hear herself talk, there would have been a better time to break that to her rather than when she was in tears. This is not a reason to dump his ass unless it's one in a pattern of thoughtless behaviour. Grow up.

My dad died a few years ago too and if my Girlfriend did that to me I would probably dump her..

Ok messed up to say that while you're crying because you lost your dad (which I'm very sorry to hear that, I know it's hard), however, people don't say that unless it's true. Wrong time for him to say and that way ****** up on his part but maybe it's something you need to think about and work on it.

It doesn't matter if it's been 5 or 10 years from your dad's death. Your dad died and you still miss him. He should be sensitive that some things take a really long time to heal. Dump the insensitive asshole.
