Today, while out for our romantic Valentine's dinner, my boyfriend of 2 and a half years told me that he believes in females being subservient, that I'm not allowed to have opinions anymore, that he is "the alpha dog" and I'm merely the "beta dog", and that I have to "get used to it." FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, my boyfriend told me that in order for me to be considered for marriage, I need to prove that I can be a subservient woman. This includes signing over the deed to my house, my car, and all my banking assets, so that he can be “the man of the house.” I make 6 figures; he rents with roommates. FML
Today, my boyfriend had a tantrum because I didn't like Black Sabbath as much as him. Apparently our entire relationship was based on him thinking I did. I've now been labeled "The Queen of Lies." FML
Today, I found out why my fiancé waited for me to meet his family. We had dinner at their place, the women were not permitted to talk while the men were in the room, also no eye contact with the men, and we had to eat separately. He says he wants me to learn to be a good and decent wife from them. FML
Today, I asked my boyfriend why he never seems to have his own opinion, always agrees with me, and does whatever I want. That’s when he admitted he’s scared of me and is terrified of saying or doing anything I won’t like. I have no idea what I did to scare him this badly. FML
Today, my fiancé yelled at me after I got off the phone with my friends, because I said I hadn't felt this happy and hadn't laughed this much in a long time. He was also mad that I didn't cook him dinner. He didn't ask me to cook dinner for him. He then told me to go somewhere else if I'm not happy with him. FML
Today, my boyfriend yelled at me. Apparently I'm not the "classy girl" he thought I was, and he's not comfortable "doing such vile things in public." I had tried to hold his hand. FML
Today, my "boyfriend" told me that he loves money more than me and would date it if he could. FML
Today, my boyfriend of four years, who has never been anything but loving and supportive, told me after I made a joke that there has been “a change” in how he deals with people, that he has been “purging,” and that I could be next because he “has needs too.” FML
Today, my boyfriend decided he's asexual and dumped me on the spot. FML
Today, my boyfriend said we needed to talk. He called me cruel, cold and heartless and that it’s making him reconsider what kind of future we may have together. All because I hate sappy movies and don’t cry on the scenes where the dogs die. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

... You mean EX-boyfriend, right? Because, surely, you dumped him on the spot, right? Possibly threw a drink in his face just for some emphasis? Gathered up all his shit and tossed it out on the lawn, as is proper? If you haven't dumped him, YDI. I mean, it's still an FML either way, but if you choose to stay with him after he spouts that kind of shit, then you deserve whatever comes after.

Wtf, he went a bit over the top with the Twilight series. And how exactly does he expect someone to 'stop having opinions'? o.O I hope you dumped him.

I'm just not understanding what the twilight series has to do with this FML.(?)

basically because the twilight series has werewolves and they have a pack system of alphas, enforcers and so on then the OPs boyfriend couldnt have possibly got that info from anywhere else like I dunno a nature program like that guy who spends his days as part of a wolf pack. No no no it had to be twilight the source of all wolfy knowledge.

I'm not sure if you deserved this or not. How did you date him for that long without figuring out he's sexist? I'm sure he must've said SOMETHING demeaning about women, and it wasn't just out of the blue he decided that women should be subservient. In any case, you need to dump him. I'm sure you don't want to stay with someone like that, do you?

Actually it's possible. I have a group of female friends who were all friends with this one guy, one of my female friends who was really close to him. One day they were talking and he said "Girls should just stay in the kitchen". He meant it. Until that point, though, nobody would have guessed he felt that way...

As much as i kind of like the wolf analogy he seems to have forgotten that alphas are only there becuase they fought their way to the top and are constantly challanged for leadership. There is only two of you so go on Beta usurp the git :D Tis your destiny :)
