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

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
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?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

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.

They might have a use for that dog in Guangxi

Honestly, I'm really impressed and proud that you haven't even considered doing anything to harm the dog. I hate that we live in a world where "not taking a breakup out on an innocent animal" is a really awesome and upright thing to do, as opposed to just basic human decency, but still. Tons of people WOULD harm the dog without second thought, and she's incredibly lucky that you're not that kind of person. Which honestly just makes me think, you should probably get some kind of proof that the dog is safe and in good condition when she gets home. If the dog gets hurt or sick or something she could turn around and blame it on you. I can't think of how you'd do this, except maybe getting a vet to sign a piece of paper the day before she gets back affirming that the dog is healthy and doesn't appear to have suffered any abuse.

That's bitchy as hell on your girlfriend's part (excuse the pun) but please be the better person and ensure the dog stays safe regardless of the choice you make :)

Call animal control, just say that the dog is a stray.

Take care of the dog because he didnt do anything to you. Just because she broke up with you it's not the dogs fault

Leave the dogs at home and tell her to come watch them

Typically you don't pay until you pick them up. So I say drop off the bitches dog and let her deal with the bill when she gets back!
