Today, my girlfriend of five years broke up with me, saying I've changed and she can't be with someone who's so emotional all the time. Well I'm so sorry that after two weeks, I'm not quite over my brother's death yet. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me. She told me that her father didn't approve of me and forced her out of the relationship. Her father died 2 years ago. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me over something that happened 5 years ago. We've only been together for 2 years as of this July. FML
Today, my girlfriend of six months broke up with me. In her words, “Liking you fucked up my brain.” Later that afternoon, she posted a story of her with another dude’s arm around her. FML
Today, my boyfriend of six years broke up with me over video chat. Two days before I was to move across the country to be with him. All of my things are already shipped. He said he thinks of me as a sister. FML
Today, my boyfriend of two years broke up with me. Why? He said his mom didn't want us together anymore. His mom died three years ago. FML
Today, my girlfriend met my brother who, despite being 10 years older, is taller, smarter, slimmer, richer, more handsome, and just objectively better in every way. He always has been. An hour ago, she broke up with me. Meeting my brother convinced her she'd settled for me and could do better with almost anyone else. FML
Today, my sister's boyfriend of over a year broke up with her. As her brother, I instinctively wanted to beat him up, but he is too much of nice guy for me to be able to hurt him. FML
Today, my brother's life was ripped apart. His wife has chosen to no longer be his wife and is trying to keep his dog as well. My brother has always been proud of his family and hopeful for the future. He will spring back, but this came out of left field. FML
Today, I told to my girlfriend of 5 years that I'm depressed about having no friends, no job and a difficult family life. I told her that she's the one constant that keeps me going. She decided this was a good time to break up with me to "find" herself, since I was being so mopey. FML
Today, my girlfriend of three and half years broke up with me, just after I'd finished fixing up her house, which took me about three and a half years. FML

Sorry for your loss, and trust me if she's not willing to stay by your side during the tough times she's not worth it

I am so sorry for your loss. I still haven't come close to getting over my uncle's death...and that was over a year and a half ago. She is a horrible person for even thinking that being that way is okay.

Sorry for your loss op but I'm kinda happy that she decided to get lost. The sooner the better! Can't imagine what it would be like if she did this after 10+years

This sounds like a poor excuse for her to break up with you. I'm sorry for your loss OP. I know what it is like to lose someone close to you.

Everyone hit it on the head. She's a cold, heartless bitch. After 5 years, how is she not upset about your brother's passing? Unreal. Take all the time you need, then find someone who can love others, not just themselves.

After 2 whole months, I'm not even over my cat's death. Your ex is ridiculous. I hope I don't need to tell you you're better off without her.

I lost a cat months ago and I still dream about him. My ex and my dad died A little over a year ago two months apart and I'm still going to grief counseling

I just lost 3 kittens and my favorite cat two weeks ago. I found my favorite cats mangled body in the road after eating dinner. the police were called over my screams. they told me to get over it and adopt another one from the spca. there are some very insensitive people in this world.

55, My favorite cat was killed by a car also, although fortunately he hadn't been mangled by it. He must have died of head trauma or internal bleeding. I can't imagine how much more heart wrenching it would have been if his body had been crushed or dismembered, to see him like that. I'm so sorry you went through that. My cat was only 4 years old and in good health, so he likely had at least another ten years ahead of him if not for the accident. That's what hurt so much, not that he died, but that it had been so sudden and premature. I've had many other pets die, but they were either very old or so young and fragile that it wasn't shocking. Also that this particular cat was so special to me. I've never loved an animal like that before, neither have I been so affected by an animal's death.

Sorry for your loss, but it sounds like you might be better off without someone that cold hearted anyway…
