Today, I broke up with my boyfriend. Devastated, he withered onto the floor into an inconsolable wreck in front of dozens of people. The ribbon of embarrassment that went down my spine was too much for me to handle, so I had to tell him I was "only joking." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I broke up with my boyfriend. I had only been dating him for about a month. Thinking he wouldn't take it very hard, I invited him over so I could tell him in person. Little did I know he was going to start crying on my couch and not leave for 5 hours. FML
Today, my boyfriend's proposal speech somehow ended with him breaking up with me. FML

Today, I was making out with my boyfriend. When we took a break and went downstairs, he checked the mail. He had received a letter from his ex-girlfriend, which he opened in front of me. He then began sobbing on my shoulder and broke up with me. He still had to drive me home. FML

Get out while you still can. Seriously!!!It will just get worse. Pazu has it right. You are being manipulated. And before you know it you will have lost control. Just, when you do finally leave him, you may need to get a restraining order. Cause he sounds crazy.

I get your point, but is the manner in which he acted that makes him "unstable"

WHAT!? The " doing it in a public place" thing didn't work. Now I'll be weary

"he withered onto the floor into an inconsolable wreck in front of dozens of people" is vastly different than crying. If a woman did this they would also be emotionally unstable.

NEVER break up in public! That's terrible!
