Today, my friend asked me for advice on how to break up with her boyfriend. I've never done it before so I googled it, my own boyfriend happened to walk in and now isn't speaking to me. He won't believe me when I say it was "for a friend." FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I had to break up with my girlfriend at her request, because she "didn't have the heart to do it." Within twenty minutes I'd received four calls from mutual friends, including my best friend, telling me what a jerk I am. And one from my mom. FML
Today, I got called to the guidance office, only to be told my boyfriend broke up with me. He wasn't sure how to break the news to me, so he made my guidance counselor do it for him. FML
Today, I tried to break up with my boyfriend. He said no. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me via Facebook. I don't even have Facebook. My friends had to tell me. FML
Today, I broke up with my boyfriend. I had only been dating him for about a month. Thinking he wouldn't take it very hard, I invited him over so I could tell him in person. Little did I know he was going to start crying on my couch and not leave for 5 hours. FML
Today, my boyfriend called me to break up with me. Immediately after we hung up, I started crying hysterically. I thought I dialed my best friend, and as soon as the line picked up, I yelled, "That motherfucker broke up with me!" My now ex-boyfriend replied, "Yeah, I know I did." FML
Today, my girlfriend sent her new boyfriend over to my place to break up with me for her. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me because someone asked him if we were dating and he lied and said no. He said he didn't want to be a liar. FML
Today, I broke up with my boyfriend. I found out he was seeing someone behind my back: my ex-boyfriend. FML
Today, my best friend finally broke up with her knob of a boyfriend. This would be great except now my boyfriend of two years has broken up with me because she's finally single. She introduced us. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Should have just told your friend to google it. Why couldn't she do it herself? Just have your friend talk to your bf

Probably should've just said which friend it was for off the bat so it sounds less like you're lying/hiding something.

If you need to google how to break up with someone for your friend, you're probably both too young to be dating.

1. She should do it herself. 2. Tell your boyfriend what friend it is who is going to break up with her boyfriend. If he doesn't believe you, then wait for it to happen.

Its not rocket science, I've been broken up with hundereds of times and its usually something along the lines of "it's not working out, theres someone else" or "I think we need to start seeing other people its not working out"

She should have grown up and done it her self.

Just tell him if you really wanted to break up with him you would have done it already instead of insisting on the truth

Kind of sad that people need consult Google for this. Before search engines media people probably didn't have to break up because there was no social media via which to hook up in the first place!
