Today, my boyfriend of two years, whom I supported through the death of his father, and whose invalid mother I also took care of, suddenly dumped me. The fact that I've put on a little weight due to recent stress disgusts him, and he "can't date a chubster". FML

Hi guys! (Sort of) OP here. This isn't actually exactly what happened, because someone copied my original FML, altered it slightly and the resubmitted it as their own. When I say "altered it slightly", I mean they changed 18 months to two years, and left out the part about his brother dying as well, apart from that, it's basically word for word identical. It was credited to me after I noticed and reported it. He did say that he'd be willing to reconsider after some time apart, but I sure as hell am not going back there again. And for those who are asking about my weight, I gained 2kg, or approximately 4 pounds for our friends using imperial measurements. I'm around 70kg (150 pounds), which, for my height of 5 foot 9, is perfectly healthy. So no, I am not at all obese.

Some people are just shallow. However you sound like a really good person and I hope you find someone that deserves you.

The fact that you took care of his mother and helped him cope with the death of his father is honorable, but if he is over your relationship, that won't keep him. You should feel happy with yourself for doing those things, it doesn't matter what he did in the long run.

Does being an asshole apologist make you happy?

I don't think 32 was excusing his behavior, just saying that OP is a good person and she's better off without him. No point begging someone to stick around if they aren't into it anymore.

I'm sure his mother appreciated you even if he didn't.

Even though your ex won't return the favor, his parents appreciate the love you gave his family. Your effort was not in vain, although it may not have hit the intended target.
