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

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was driving home with my girlfriend. As we turned onto our block, she shrieked that our dog was running down the street and into traffic. I jumped out of the moving car and chased him for about a mile, only to give up, go home, and find out it wasn't our dog. FML
Today, I broke up with my boyfriend. As I left his house and began to drive away, I see him chasing after my car barefoot. I stop and roll down the window, ready to listen to the speech he has prepared to win me over with. He takes a moment to catch his breath and says "I want my cellphone back". FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me. As I was leaving his house, I heard him shout, "Hey! Wait! Sweetie, get back here!" He was talking to his cat who'd run out the door behind me. 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
Today, my boyfriend thought it'd be a good idea to break up with me in his car. I had to walk home. FML
Today, I was backing out of my garage when my neighbour's collie ran behind my car. Unfortunately, I didn't see it, but I heard a thump. They were out, so I rushed him to the vet's. I was upset, and I guess I was driving too fast and didn't see that another dog was crossing the road. I killed two dogs today. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I got into an argument. Naturally, I drove over to my best friend's house for comfort. My boyfriend saw me driving past his house and promptly broke up with me for being "a psycho stalker." She lives across the street from him. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me. He let me know by shaving "CYA" into my dog's fur and then moving out before I got home from work. FML
Today, I broke up with my boyfriend. I'd trusted that he and his ex were “co-parenting” a dog that he and his ex adopted while they were together and nothing more was happening. His ex is pregnant and he’s the father. He insists that he doesn’t love her anymore and it was a “mistake.” He wants me to take him back. 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

You seriously deserve this... F his life for being broken up with and having his dog run over in one day.

What if a kid was there?! Anytime someone waves their arms frantically and yells stop while you are driving, you should probably stop. And poor dog :(

You should be banned from driving for 20 years... or he should go John Wick on you... I'd prefer the later but I'm trying to be respectful. I suppose what you did next is probably more important though. Unless by kept going you meant ran over his dog and knew it, then kept going in which case the prior is off the table.

A breakup does not makes you not look for surroundings.. Don't breakup and drive.

Honestly, it's not your FML. From the bottom of my heart, you are a despicable person. You are truly horrible for that. Not only did you not wait to hear what your boyfriend (who is lucky to not have you in his life anymore, by the way) had to say, but you assumed he wanted to make up, and kept going. He could have realized that whatever you were arguing about was stupid and wanted to salvage something you guys had for 2 years. Also, because of your decision, an innocent dog was killed. I really hope that unlucky bastard breaks all ties with you and never contacts you again.

Unless the guy was abusive, this ^

You are assuming an awful lot. People are allowed to break up and are not horrible because they want to get away from from the emotional experience. I don't blame OP at all for thinking he wanted to talok about the breakup or for deciding to leave. But OP should have been looking around them, and if someone yells stop and you are driving, you should stop. But I do not think OP is a horrible or awful person for not wanting to talk to the boyfriend after - even if he wasn't abusive. OP could have always talked later but maybe they'd said everything. You don't know the details of that breakup - none of us do so we are all assuming things, but to assume they are horrible for wanting to leave the emotions ofa break-up, is too far.
