Today, my boyfriend told me he was going out tonight to celebrate his ex-but-still-friends-girlfriend's birthday at a local club and hopes I wasn't offended that I wasn't invited. I sure am offended; we have the same birthday. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, my boyfriend of a year went to a wedding. He didn't invite me, he took his ex instead. I saw it all on Instagram. FML
Today, my boyfriend treated me to a surprise romantic dinner, got me a huge balloon bouquet, a dozen roses, and a beautiful card for my birthday. Too bad it's his ex's birthday and not mine. FML
Today, I got out of work, and just wanted to relax after a stressful day. Instead, I came home to a surprise birthday party that my boyfriend set up. My birthday isn't even until next week, and I secretly hate two of the people he invited. FML
Today, I went to an old boyfriend's birthday party. An annoying friend suggested that we should try dating again. We were both with our new partners, who were standing nearby when she said that. FML
Today, my current boyfriend and my ex-boyfriend got into a fight about when my birthday is. They were both wrong. FML
Today, I had to lie to my boyfriend about having plans on tonight so he'd think I had a life outside of him. All my "friends" are going to a party. I'm not invited. FML
Today, rather than get me a birthday present, my boyfriend just got angry that I got gifts from other people. Apparently, it "made him feel guilty." FML
Today, it's my birthday. My ex just sent me a text. I read it, happy he had remembered. He wanted me to know he has a new girlfriend. FML
Today, a couple of days after my boyfriend came on a night out with my friends but made us leave early as he had an early work shift, he's now spent the last two nights out with his friends, late, and all my friends are busy and a bit peeved at us taking off early the other night. FML
Today, I should be spending my birthday with my boyfriend of 8 months. Instead he's visiting his ex, who's pregnant with a baby that "may or may not be" his. FML

I'm glad there are others out there who share my point of view. I'm only 18, and I am bestfriends with my most recent ex, and people just seem to think it's some sort of impossible feat of amazement that exes can remain friends, or even best friends.

If you think about what he said abstractly.. I think you just got dumped.

I like the nonchalance on the delivery, with the semi-colon and all no less. Very hot. Lady... *I* would be pissed. Royally. FYL.

That "bros before hoes" crap is idiotic. It's like you're saying that just because there's a possibility that you could break up with him means that you shouldn't even bother caring. In the amount of time that I've been with my boyfriend, I've gained new friends, lost those new friends, and even lost some friends that I had considered close before I even met my boyfriend. They've either drifted from me or done crap behind my back, and yet my boyfriend has been here all along, supporting me, loving me, and caring for my feelings. Some friends are for life, yes, but not all, and if they truly are your friend, then they won't care that you chose to be with your significant other. Romantic relationships have a one on one commitment that you simply don't have with just-friend relationships. A boyfriend/girlfriend's birthday should always be more important to you than the birthday of someone who's 'just a friend', especially if that 'friend' used to be a girlfriend, even if that means just sitting on the couch talking/cuddling with your girlfriend when you could be out partying.

Well my opinion is about the same as everyone else's, so I'm not gonna bother saying anything but "Happy Birthday!" =)
