Today, my boyfriend, and father of my son, announced that he’s leaving me for my best friend. His reasoning is that he feels bad that she’s a single mom. When I pointed out that by him leaving me, I’ll also be a single mom, he responded with, "But at least she has her pre-pregnancy body back." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my boyfriend told me he lost his feelings for me and is breaking up with me. He also told me he’ll be glad to contribute to raising our son, who I gave birth to 3 months ago. To rub salt in the wound, he announced on Facebook as “In a relationship” with his coworker 12 hours later. FML
Today, my boyfriend of nearly 4 years, with whom I have a baby, broke up with me. His reason? His best friend said he didn't like drinking with guys who were "tied down". FML
Today, I found out that the rivalry between my boyfriend and my only friend I have in this city was just a cover up. I'm now a single mom of a 2 year-old and a 5 month-old. FML
Today, my best friend called me and told me she was in the hospital in labor. Excited, I rush to the hospital. Once I arrived, I saw my boyfriend of 4 years in the room. I asked him what he was doing there and my friend says, “You wanna tell her or should I?” Turns out he’s leaving me for her. The baby is his. FML
Today, I had to offer my boyfriend a no-hard-feelings opportunity to just leave. He never wanted to be a dad, but since we accidentally got pregnant and had our son, I’ve watched his mental health go downhill so fast I was afraid he’d kill himself if he kept forcing himself to stay with us. FML
Today, my best friend and I have been friends for over 35 years and now suddenly I don’t have a friend anymore, all because my idiot son got his daughter pregnant then abandoned her, and somehow it’s my fault my son is a deadbeat and I deserve to have a 35 year friendship taken away FML
Today, my boyfriend "finally figured out" that he couldn't possibly be the father of my child, and publicly broke up with me. When I reminded him that I was already pregnant when we first met, he "extra" broke up with me for making him look stupid. FML
Today, my now-ex-fiance told me he’s leaving me for his pregnant coworker. The baby is his. The same coworker he assured me was just a "professional platonic friendship." Our wedding was set to be this Saturday. FML
Today, I am pregnant, and my boyfriend dumped me, saying that he didn't want to be stuck in anything too serious. FML
Today, I’m packing up to leave my home and move back to my mother's with my newborn a week postpartum, all because when I was at the hospital, I overheard my husband say to his buddy on the phone that this “father stuff” is way more than he bargained for and that he’s tired of pretending to find me attractive.

Stupid is as Stupid does. Lawyer up and hit him for max on child support (Don't worry about the cost, he'll pay it). If you were dependent, alimony also. I don't even think a marriage certificate will be needed. There's not a judge or lawyer that will show sympathy for such a shallow reasoning for leaving the mother of their children. Don't forget he needs to carry healthcare for everyone. Just be sure he pays before wanting tax dollars to support the kid or kids. I foresee living out of a car for him in the future.

Try as I might, I can't seem to find any flaws in his logic. Sorry about that.

This may seem shallow, but I would workout like crazy, get super hot. Not to get him back, but make him realize his mistake. And also to get healthy lol, that's good too. Then laugh and enjoy all the attention you will get from someone who is hopefully more worthy.

He's a total D🍆CK just like some of the other commenters. You don't need that. Give someone a chance to love you and your child for yourselves.

She wouldn’t get alimony, that’s for MARRIED couples and as she clearly stated, he was a boyfriend

By all means look it up. There's been a few cases were a woman was awarded monetary support without being married. The technical term may not be alimony for unmarried couples, but it does happen when one is dependent on the other.

I've been reading a lot of "my man left me because my body isn't back" or "my man doesn't wanna have sex with me because of my post birth body" and people ask me why I don't want kids. sorry op :(

Meh. It's not a ticket for doom. I've been quite thin, and often in great shape since I had my son 9 years ago. Never gained any weight or had any major changes in my looks. Everyone is different! 🤷♀️
