Today, my boyfriend of nearly two years broke up with me because he's sick of me being annoyed at him. Why am I annoyed at him? Because he wants to go and spend a week with his ex. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me for asking to spend time with him after not seeing him very much in three months, because he doesn’t have time for me and is so stressed out he doesn’t have time for fun. Then he decided he should go to Mexico with the people he works and lives with so they could have fun together. FML
Today, my boyfriend took a day off from work because he felt "sick". I thought he might come see me since he hadn't come over in a while. Nope, he went to hang out with his ex instead. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me. He said it was because his online gaming friends don't like it when I ask him to spend time with me. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I broke up. He said it was because he wanted to 'do his own thing'. So gaming 24/7 like he has for the past two years of our relationship, then. FML
Today, my boyfriend of two years broke up with me. Why? His best mate got dumped yesterday and my boyfriend thought it would be 'more fun' to be 'single lads together'. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me after 2 years of being together. The reason? I don't enjoy playing video games as much as he does. FML
Today, my boyfriend of four years broke up with me because he wanted some independence. He moved back into his parents' house. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me, as he'd realised that life is really short, and he's got to enjoy with his friends. FML
Today, my boyfriend left me after I'd been supporting him for 9 months while he "finds himself." Why? Because I wanted to go grocery shopping instead of him eating out every day with my money. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me because I was "angry" at him. I was angry because last night he turned off his phone and left me locked out of the Airbnb that I had paid for. Until 3 am. In a foreign country. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Yeah, I'd be annoyed if I were you too.

Then kick his ass, instead of being annoyed with him. I would have dumped his ass if my boyfriend ever even thought of doing that.

Doesn't sound like an FML to me, it just sounds like he saved you the effort of doing it yourself.

He wants to cheat on you but he wants it to be your fault. Good riddance OP, he sounds like a douche. Kick his butt out the door and tell him to grow up!

I'm amazed at how incredibly insecure so many of these posters are. If the OP's now ex-boyfriend has been friends with his ex (which happens quite a bit), this isn't exactly unusual. Obviously, one needs to take into account distance (really weird if it's just an hour away to his ex's, practical if it's across the country), but to simply bash this guy and assume he was going to cheat is just stupid and sexist. Yes, you heard me right. You have limited information about the circumstances surrounding this incident and assume that since he's a guy, he was planning on having a romantic/sexual encounter with his ex. Seriously, people. My now-fiance spent 6 months abroad, she's stayed overnight at her ex's house (well, he lives with his parents at the moment), as well as at the house of other male friends. Guess what? I trust her, and I know the male friends. What's the issue?

Because not all guys are like your fiancé. & your fiancé is a chick.

Yea, but theres never enough information in FMLs. We don't know whether or not this is a flighty high-school relationship, a long-term relationship, whether they're engaged, etc. We don't know if she's a chronic bitch who knocks him any time he pays another woman attention, or if he's a dick whos constantly flirting with other women just to show that she can't control him. We also don't know how the ex is, whether she has a BF, their relationship before they were romantically involved, or anything like that. Maybe she and him just kept the friendship thing going since the breakup and the new GF is being overly paranoid, maybe the ex has been manipulative and trying to get him back for the past few years, who knows? So without further information, all we can do is go by what we perceive as the most likely scenario. For me this is: He's not over his ex, he's not taking his current GF's feelings into account, ending their(probably short-term) relationship would be best for them both.

Showmehowtolive: You missed the part about the other male friends. Again, it all comes down to trust levels. If you don't trust your SO to not cheat on you given the opportunity, that's your relationship. I just think it's sad so many people assume that this is the case. RainbowHeadache: So what you're saying is, girls are emotionally stable, honest people and guys are manipulative cheaters? instantmusic: Agreed on some points, but again, kind of sad that everyone assumes the worst case scenario.

I'd say FMLs are about half and half people with real problems, and people with no concept of how bad life can get whining about little things that won't matter in a few days. That's why I don't automatically assume the circumstances are the worst-case.

@57 I can agree with that, maybe I'm a little too cynical on this one.
RainbowHeadache 2
No. Women can cheat it's just more common for men.

Actually, it's about even, but men get caught more.
youngbuck10 9
I think you're a wee bit oblivious. Just saying. I wouldn't want to spend one second with an ex, nor would my fiance'.

Good riddances, now you can focus all your energy on a guy worthwhile. His loss, your gain.

looks like he was just looking for an excuse to break up with you fyl op for getting played

Yes, let's assume the worst intentions on the part of the male. Intelligent and rational. Let's grow up, please. Men and women can have platonic relationships, but men and women can't have romantic relationships when one of them is a jealous, controlling, overbearing harpy.
