Today, I complained to my boyfriend that I was stressed out. He asked me, "What do you have to be stressed out about?" I work 50 hours a week and go to school full time. I ask him what was stressful about his day, he told me that his "kill/death ratio went down on Call of Duty." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was having lunch with my boyfriend and talking about how stressed out I've been because of my job. While I'm speaking, he pulls out his phone and says his boss is texting him and it was important. There was a game of Tetris reflecting onto his glasses from his phone. FML
Today, my boyfriend finally called me after a week of barely any communication. He wanted to talk to my brother about Call of Duty. FML
Today, my boyfriend called work because he is sick. Then he called me four times while I was working, to complain that I was working, and then he got mad when I told him I was sick and worked a double shift two days in a row, because apparently that's "insensitive" of me. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me that because he works fifty hours a week, I should be meeting an arbitrary quota of fifty hours of housework, and if I don't, I'm insensitive and ungrateful. FML
Today, after a full shift at work, I got home to my boyfriend playing CoD, a full sink, crap all over the table, a full cat box, dirty bathroom, no laundry done and the kids at my parents' house. He yelled at me because the place was a mess. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me he wouldn't be able to cover his share of the rent because he didn't work during the week, saying business has been slow. I checked and found out he called in sick four times. He wanted to stay home and watch online gaming matches. FML
Today, I'm staying at my boyfriend's house and things were getting heated when he got a call from one of his mates wanting to play Counter Strike. Next thing I know, I'm laying in bed by myself listening to him rage. FML
Today, my boyfriend asked me why I looked sad. I told him that I found out a co-worker died over the weekend and I failed my final exam. He then informed me that my toilet was clogged again, that he had a lot of work to do, and left. I have to find a plunger. FML
Today, on the phone, my boyfriend was complaining about the heat. When I told him that it wasn't hot where I live, at all, but that I had trouble sleeping due to stress, he replied, "Because of the heat, right? What else can it be?" FML
Today, my boyfriend dumped me because he said the relationship was too tough for him. When I asked for an example, he responded, "Like, I don't have enough time to play World of Warcraft." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Ffft, have you ever had your kill/death ratio go down? It's very stressful.

FYL, I've been there. 2 full time jobs, an additional part time job, and a home based business. The school isn't the stressful part i've found, wait til the bills pile in. that's the WORST. Ex then said he was pissed at me for our relationship because i didn't have time for him. He doesn't even have his own bank account, and sat on World of Warcraft 70+ hours a week.

Are people really serious about videogames like this. Being under stress from school and work is different from being under stress from a video game that you *choose* to play. Also, where is the fun in playing a video game that's frustrating? I don't get it.

Then you obviously don't play video games #46.

idk. they're games for a reason. who needs another reason to be stressed over something, especially when that something is utterly inconsequential?

Get down on your knees and start apologizing with your mouth for not understanding how stressful COD is.

People who haven't worked and studied full time will never understand, and that includes significant others and bosses. Been there, done that, so FYL OP, it's nothing short of brutal. Meanwhile FMLsters, making comments along the lines of "just get another job/reduce your hours" makes you sound like a sheltered, selfish child. The real world is quite expensive when mommy and daddy aren't paying for it anymore, and jobs are a little hard to come by, especially if mommy/daddy can't just pull a few strings.

Definite yes to everyone saying she probably needs to work that much to afford school, housing, etc. And as far as everyone saying she deserves it for complaining: you're supposed to be able to vent to your significant other. It's called a relationship.

Makes sense to me.

If you don't want to listen to/read about people's complaints of their lives, why are you on a site called "**** My Life"....kinda like choosing to go the Chuck E. Cheese, and complaining about children.
