Money, Break-ups and Love: This is the end

This is the end

By MexyBoy - This FML is from back in 2009 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, my girlfriend of 8 months and I broke up. We decided to give back everything we ever bought for each other. I gave her the stuff she bought me and when I asked for my stuff she said she'd sold it and spent the money on herself. FML

Today, my girlfriend broke up with me after a year of living together. She told me that she met someone else and wanted to move out. She moved out... but moved her things into my roommate's bedroom. FML

Can't buy me love

Today, my girlfriend saw my secret money stash for emergencies and broke up with me, after calling me a greedy asshole and not telling her before. According to her, we could have taken a lot of trips around the country, because, "your money is mine, too." We dated for six months. FML

Today, my boyfriend of almost a year and a half broke up with me when he decided he wasn't in love with me anymore. We gave our stuff back, he was joking and happy the whole time until I told him I was taking back my cat. At that point he burst into tears. FML

Today, my girlfriend left me at 11pm after leading me on for 5 months, all because she lost interest. I wasted so much time, money, and emotions on her, and never received them from her. FML

Today, I'm living with my now ex-girlfriend of 9 years in the house we bought together. What's worse than that is the fact that 2 weeks before she told me she was unhappy and ended it, I had bought an engagement ring. I didn't get the chance to ask, and had to return the ring. FML

One last thing…

Today, my girlfriend broke up with me. She came over to see me one last time. We hugged for minutes and cried; it was a touching moment. Just after she left, I realized my wallet that I had on the table beside us was gone. FML

Today, after nearly 4 years together, my girlfriend told me that not only does she not love me anymore, she was lying about wanting to work things out because it would be "too hard" for her to go back to financing her own life. I'm nothing more than an extra wallet. FML

Wow, FYL. She's a real catch...shoulda dumped her sooner. Take back the stuff she bought you! They were all gifts, after all.

More fool you for actually falling for that one. You should have told her "sure, you can have everything back you gave me. It's outside in the trash can"

If she spent the money on stuff for herself, take the stuff. If she actually literally spent it on herself... Take her!

How about not, #17 :) Just do what she did to you. If she agreed to it, and then sold it post-agreement: that's definitely a bitch move.

But if she sold it first, then made the agreement that she couldn't fulfill, that's a perfectly alright move...? Seriously OP, she's a bitch. I like the idea of getting everyone you know to text her, and calling her boss. :P And to those saying it's immature, what do you do with gifts from a broken relationship? Put them on display and use them? Most people are hurt seeing them, and this seems like a pretty intelligent way of tying up loose ends, removing things that could hurt you, and coming out with a wallet as heavy as your heart.
