Today, my girlfriend furiously bitched me out because I got more upset about my phone screen cracking than when she told me about the death of her cat. We hadn't even met when her cat died. Did she expect me to burst into tears from hearing the story? Guess who's single again… FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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, at the end of a 15 hour shift, my girlfriend and her friends played a "prank" on me by texting me from a random number saying my cat got hit by a car. I immediately burst into tears and lost it in front of my colleagues. My cat is fine. My relationship is the real joke. FML
Today, I was on a date with a girl I've been crushing on for a while. At one point we started talking about pets we'd had. I wanted to show my sensitive side, so I told her how I sadly had to get my beloved cat euthanized earlier that week, and had buried her in my backyard. Her response? "Ew." FML
Today, I was crying because my cat died. My boyfriend cupped my face in his hands, looked me straight into the eyes and said, "I love seeing you cry." FML
Today, my girlfriend of six months yelled at me for not comforting her while she was crying because her ex got a new girlfriend, and "it's just not fair." FML
Today, after holing myself up in my room for the day, I eventually turned my phone back on and told my girlfriend that my grandma passed away today. She replied, "Ask me if I fucking care," then accused me of not caring about our relationship because I went offline all day. FML
Today, I got home from work to find my boyfriend sobbing hysterically over the death of his cat. The only cat he could be talking about is the one on his Sims account. FML
Today, my overly-attached 14-year-old cat wanted attention while I was in a heated Skype argument with my girlfriend. Worked up from the fight, I raised my voice and said, "Not now, go away!" He ran to his little bed, had a heart attack and died. I was a complete dick to my cat in his last moments. FML
Today, my phone died while I was on the phone with my girlfriend. When I finally got a charger, I saw a text message from her. I'm now single. FML
Today, my girlfriend's best friend was dumped, and was absolutely depressed. My girlfriend thought she'd show her sympathy by breaking up with me so they "could be single together." FML

If the cat meant a lot to her you should probably be sympathetic, it's hard losing a pet. But at the same time she also shouldn't have overreacted and broken up with you over not sobbing over a deceased animal that was never relevant to your relationship to begin with.

Always the double standard with women. Always complaining that all men want is pussy. But when their cat dies it's world ending.

Uhh crying bout your screen is a bit much but she was dramatic so your good. But u didn't need to cry bout her cat neither.

The FML didn't say that he cried about his phone screen.

Nowadays having a moment because your screen cracked is sort of a big deal, for the simple fact all the phones functions are done by the screen, and it cost a LOT to even get it fixed. More than likely OP is crying over the fact that they now have to come out of pocket to get a new one. Now for the cat, empathy is all that was needed.

Ask to borrow pictures of her cat. Then photo shop yourself into them in a collage. Then sync "I won't give up" by Jason Mraz to the slide show and play it for her. And in the final picture it should be you by yourself on your knees screaming into the sky, "Nooooooooooo!!!!!!!'

Dude relationships is simple with this equation you+her=your wrong, breaking this equation often results in breaking the relationship

If you broke up over something that stupid then your girlfriend has bigger problems. I'd hate to see her in an actual serious situation.

Sounds to me like she was looking for a reason to escape the relationship...but that's just my perspective.

wow... um I can't really say much about that because it seems like you had a girl with a couple crossed wires there. Sorry OP.

Just wait until she's off of her period

So basically instead of getting upset at what she perceived to be an unacceptable lack of empathy immediately after it happened, she chose to wait until she could pin it on you once you got more upset at something else. Sounds like a whole lot of vindictive and conniving nope.
