Today, my boyfriend called me explaining that he is getting married this weekend to a woman he met on Craigslist. Why? Because I won't marry him, and he'll make an extra thousand dollars per month having a wife since he is in the army. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my boyfriend of over two years said he wants to get married before he leaves for basic training. Not because he loves me, but because he'll get paid more if he's married. This is the only time he's been excited about marriage. FML
Today, my fiancé and his family accused me of being with him only because he's rich, refusing to go ahead with the wedding. I accepted his marriage proposal 4 years ago, when he was penniless and unemployed. FML
Today, my fiancé told me that he expects me to agree to quit my job to cook and clean after we get married, or he will not show up at our wedding. He earns minimum wage and my salary is 17 times higher than his. FML
Today, the guy that I'm in love with and plan to marry some day told me he would choose a million dollars over me. I got upset and told him I no longer want to be with him. In an excited voice he said, "Really? So are you serious I don't have to worry about this love stuff anymore?" FML
Today, my boyfriend told me I should finish school early and get a job so we can get married, because then he'll have enough money to buy the truck he's had his eyes on for our whole relationship. FML
Today, I found out why my boyfriend of 5 years won't propose/marry me. He would rather wait for his estranged wife to meet someone, fall in love, decide to get married, and do the filing herself. He doesn't want to pay the couple of hundred dollars for the uncontested divorce filing. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me he's prepared to commit to marriage, but only if I buy my own ring and tell everyone he surprised me with it. FML
Today, I found out that my long-distance boyfriend just got married because his "real" girlfriend is pregnant. FML
Today, my "boyfriend" told me that he loves money more than me and would date it if he could. FML
Today, while talking on the phone with my long-distance boyfriend, he let me know that he was getting married in August to "some girl" for his papers. After I objected, he told me, "Well, you can marry me if you want." I'm not sure if I just got dumped or proposed to. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Greedy little asshat, you are probably better off without him since he obviously values money over a relationship, honor, self-respect... etc. Look on the bright side. He'll probably catch a whole host of sexually transmitted diseases if he sleeps with her and considering she is off craigslist, he's taking a huge risk.

Ugh, #46, me too! I didn't realize there were so many people who want to get married just to get married, and not wait to find the right person.

actually, the person that is in the military decides who the money goes to. they have all of that figured out and its on paper before they get deployed. it doesnt just go to whoever.

actually you do NOT get a million dollars. And it doesn't automatically go to the spouse. the SGLI is only 400,000, which is still a good amount of money. But if you have bills and everything else it will diminish quickly if you have children and do not work. It's sad that everyone thinks the military is grand and you get all this money to do nothing. and that if you die your partner or family becomes rich. The money is not worth it. I'd rather have my husband home every night not worrying if my kids or I will ever see him again.

If you like him, marry him. That's why yheyhave divorse: for greedy army guys who only marry for money. Not saying that's every army guy. Just this one probably.

Thank God you didn't marry him. Imagine marrying a guy knowing he'd marry ANYONE.

Yeah, totally. Women should always do exactly what their partners want them to do, and **** the woman's feelings, concerns, lives, and right to make choices - because THEY LOVE THEIR MEN YEAH GET IN THE KITCHEN AND MAKE ME A SAMMICH BITCH. Something tells me #36 is going to die a sad and lonely virgin.

I notice your post says "my boyfriend". I hope that you've dumped him by now. What an asshole.
