Today, my boyfriend still won't talk to me, after I caused him the "worst embarrassment" of his life in front of his friends. What did I do wrong? I joined their conversation and ended up confusing the fictional characters of Gollum and Yoda with one another. FML

Today, I had a massive argument with my boyfriend, in which he called me stupid repeatedly. I stomped out of his house and sent a very angry text to my best friend about him. She didn't text back. Then my boyfriend texted, "My girlfriend is so stupid, she can't even text the right number." FML
Today my boyfriend and my best friend had a very lengthy, detailed conversation about Lord of the Rings and the Hobbit, of which I know nothing about. Once they stopped, I looked at him and smiled, and he responded with, "Why can't you be more like her?" FML

Today, I was talking to my boyfriend on the phone, when I accidentally let rip a monstrous fart. He swore at me for being a pig, hung up, and has ignored all my subsequent calls. I try not to date idiots, but it's like I have a big old shithead-attracting magnet attached to me or something. FML
Today, my boyfriend came over and dropped off my phone, which I'd left at his place the night before. He immediately left in a sulk. As I looked through my texts, I discovered he was only so moody because I hadn't answered any of his calls or messages. I'm dating an idiot. FML

Maybe you shouldn't join conversations if you don't know what they're talking about.

Don't join in if you have literally no idea whatsoever what the conversation is about. Even if you haven't seen those movies those characters are popular enough that it's almost common sense. I'd be embarrassed too if my boyfriend started chattering to my friends about something he didn't know anything about and making himself look stupid in front of them.

If this is the worst embarrassment your annoying nerd of a BF ever has or ever will suffer, he's a very lucky guy! He should value you more than this and get his priorities straight or face a life of loving little imaginary green men who exist only in movies and books versus having a relationship with a real woman... If he chooses his buddies Yoda and Gollum over you, OP, he's an idiot and he has chosen poorly! F HIS L!!

As someone who doesn't know who Yoda or Gollum are except they are characters from lord of the rings, I understand how OP wanted to join the conversation and not just sit there while her boyfriend is chilling with his friends. However not on topics she's not familiar with.
