Today, my girlfriend broke up with me over the phone, after having left me to look after her dog while she went on a 2-week vacation with her family. Now I have to choose between paying for a kennel for her damn dog or taking care of it every day until she gets back. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my girlfriend dumped me because her dog "told her to". FML
Today, my girlfriend came over to talk. She just got back from a small vacation, and she'd asked me to feed her dogs while she was gone, so I did. I even stayed with them at times so they wouldn't get lonely. My girlfriend had come over to break up with me. She didn't do so earlier because she needed her dogs fed. FML
Today, my girlfriend canceled our date I've been looking forward to all week because her dog was having puppies. She doesn't have a dog. FML
Today, my girlfriend whom I'm crazy about broke up with me out of the blue. After pleading with her unsuccessfully, I called my mom for comfort and advice. She informed me that my dog had died. FML
Today, my fiancé and I broke up, and he won't answer my calls or texts. I don't want him back; he has my dog. FML
Today, it's been 3 weeks since my girlfriend of 5 years stopped answering any calls or texts. I sent her a long email for closure (for me) only to get a response that she's on vacation. I had no idea she was going away and I don't know what I did. Time to get another dog and be done with "love" for good. FML
Today, I texted my girlfriend to tell her that we couldn't hang out because my dog died this morning and we were burying him. She replied that she wasn't going to get stood up by a stupid dog. She then broke up with me. FML
Today, I went to pick up my dog from a friend's place since she agreed to watch him while I went out of state for Spring Break. I arrived at her apartment. She’s gone and the apartment was vacated. She won’t answer her phone or texts, and vanished from all social media. I’m still making payments on the dog. FML
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me because her mom said she would buy her a pug if she did. I got dumped for a dog, and an ugly one for that matter. FML
Today, my wife of seven years told me that she doesn't trust me with dog-sitting her dog while she leaves to spend Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's with her family. She ended up calling someone she "trusts" to take care of her dog while I spend the holidays by myself. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Just take it to one of her closest relatives and tell them they'll have to take care of it until she's back because you're leaving.

I agree you shouldn't take it out on the dog the dog is an innocent in all this it not the dogs fault the owner is a bitch and don't give the dog chocolate that could kill the dog I think you should take the dog to your place with all your stuff and when she comes back just keep the dog

Judging by the wording of the fml, though, OP isn't really a fan of the "damn dog." Why would they keep it?

Why take it out on the dog? It did nothing wrong. The poor dog can't help it's owner is an ass.

You are obviously an insensitive POS. You don't deserve to have an ant farm. Let's hope evolution soon cuts out useless wastes of human flesh such as yourself.

The dog did nothing wrong, just take care of it. I'm sure you can handle this. Sorry about your relationship ending that way though.

Is there not a kennel nearby where you pay when you pick up the dog? Could take it there, tell her where the dog is when she gets back, leave her with the bill.

100 times this. As much as I love dogs, I would not want a constant reminder of a heartless ex. Make sure it is taken care of, but she pays for it.

This I can agree with. It will be taken care of, won't lose its home, but it won't be your problem.

this was what I was going to say. most kennels you pay when you pick up the dog.

The dog didn't break up with you, don't take it out on the thing. Call her up and figure out a different arrangement.

Awkward....this wouldn't be kind to the dog, but you could accidentally let him "get lost". She shouldn't expect you to do her a favor after breaking up with you, especially over the phone! Any decent person would do it in person...

And a "decent" person wouldn't just let a dog "get lost."
