Love: Choose wisely

Choose wisely

By Anonymous - 10/07/2009 09:21 - Canada

Today, my husband gave me an ultimatum - choose him or my male best friend. I chose my husband. My husband then admitted to me that he was hoping I would choose my best friend so he would have an excuse to leave me and wouldn't have to tell me he's been cheating on me. FML

Ultimatum

By Moving out tomorrow smh - 11/02/2025 18:00 - United States

Today, I gave my boyfriend an ultimatum: me, the girl who’s been there through thick and thin for the past 2 years, supported him through his unemployment and death of his father, and who cooks and cleans for him every day, or the girl coworker who he’s been emotionally cheating on me with. Guess who he chose. FML

OBEY

By Nope! - 27/06/2024 05:00 - United States - Riverside

Today, my husband told me that I’m no longer “allowed” to see my best friend of 27 years. He’s worked up in his mind that she’s going to try to convince me to cheat on him because she’s single. She literally introduced us and was the maid of honor at our wedding. FML

Love isn't…

Today, I found out my boyfriend made a move to hook up with my best friend. She was about to reciprocate, only for him to suddenly tell her that she’s a horrible friend, and then he told me about it. I’m not sure if I should be picking sides here. FML

Should have chosen your best friend anyway. Your husband had no right to force you to choose. Pretty freaking immature.

All the more reason to really choose your best male friend; chances are his support will be needed.

So I started reading your FML and i was like "Wow your husband's an ass. Making you choose is terrible." Then i finished reading. What a douche. I'm going to assume that back when you married him we wasn't so awful.... At least I hope..... I'm sorry. Better luck next time? that really sucks :(
