Today, I'm in a relationship with a guy who yells at me everyday for things I didn't do, is in a dead-end job and is not attractive whatsoever, but I can't bring myself to break up with him because he would get to keep the dog. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I realized I'm trapped. I might be heading into an abusive relationship that I won't be able to escape, but I can't leave because then I'd break his heart and I love him too much for that. FML
Today, my fiancé and I broke up, and he won't answer my calls or texts. I don't want him back; he has my dog. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I broke up. He now argues that he should keep the dog. We only dated for three months, and I've had the dog since I was ten. FML
Today, I'm stuck in a bad relationship with a man who won't work to get ahead in life, and whose family looks down on me for being a different race. If I dump him, I'll have to live with my racist dad, who will smuckle endlessly about how I "learned a lesson for dating outside your race." FML
Today, I went to see my boyfriend with the intention of breaking up with him. Instead I discovered that he lost his job today and has to move back in with his parents. I can't bring myself to dump someone who's already crying about his horrible day. Now I have to comfort my soon-to-be ex. FML
Today, I felt a fear that my relationship with my boyfriend isn’t going to last. There’s nothing inherently wrong, yet I find myself thinking of breaking up with him. A lot. I love him and feel like I’m already part of his family, and that's something I don’t want to let go. I don’t know what to do. FML
Today, after breaking up with my boyfriend of 2 years, I was backing out of his driveway when he came running out yelling "STOP!" I thought he wanted to make up so I kept going, until I'd run over his dog. FML
Today, I tried to break up with my boyfriend. He said no. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me, right after I turned down an amazing job opportunity in another location, just so I could be with him. FML
Today, the dog my now ex-boyfriend and I own together bit me bad enough that I needed stitches on my face and my hand... he then broke up with me and saying it was all too much for him and has kept the dog... FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

YDI. take the dog to a safe location where he will never find it, like where your self respect is. THEN break up with him :)

Just give the dog to your mom and break up w/ him and then get the dog back from your mom. Problem solved. ;)

I realize that this is a tough situation and it may not seem like it to you, but you are worth more than his dog. If you think he will hurt the animal, maybe you can call a no-kill dog shelter to protect it. You deserve to be happy OP and you will never be happy with a man who treats you like that, dog or no dog. He has no redeeming qualities. You need to do something for yourself and break up with him. His yelling could be a symptom of stress. If I were you, I'd encourage him to try to get a better job. Maybe you breaking up with him would be a good motivator. Above all, GET OUT OF THAT RELATIONSHIP! Stress or not, it could escalate to physical abuse (not that emotional abuse isn't reason enough) and that's a very dangerous situation for you.
