Today, I beat my boyfriend in a video game. He promptly dumped me and told me to leave. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Gamers rise up
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me after 2 years of being together. The reason? I don't enjoy playing video games as much as he does. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me over the phone. He said there was someone else, and that he has been in love with her for a while. Turns out, the new girl was his online video game character. I got dumped for a video game. FML
Today, I realized that my ex has REALLY dumped me for a video game. And he will not change his mind. FML
My feefees
Today, I beat my boyfriend at chess, whilst also doing my homework and cooking dinner, and he got upset about it. FML
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me after I beat her once again in a trivia game. She said that I was cheating, and if I was cheating on the game, I was definitely cheating on her as well. FML
At this point, it's just self-sabotage
Today, I find video games very unattractive and unmanly. I told a great guy that he had to choose between me and his video games, and he immediately told me he chose video games, then asked me to leave. Whatever, loser. FML
Switch 2: Electric Boogaloo
Today, I found my boyfriend playing games when we have 5 million things to do, but the bastard picked me up, put me in the hall, shut the door in my face, and barricaded it with the sofa. I texted him, threatening to break up unless he opened the door; he texted back to leave my key behind when I left. FML
A man's gotta do what a man's gotta do
Today, my boyfriend and I broke up. He said it was because he wanted to 'do his own thing'. So gaming 24/7 like he has for the past two years of our relationship, then. FML

Today, my boyfriend broke up with me. He said it was because his online gaming friends don't like it when I ask him to spend time with me. FML
Thanks, I guess
Today, my ex-girlfriend came over to console me after a breakup. After beating me repeatedly in Mario Kart, she decided to leave. FML

You dodged a bullet, trust me. I dated 2 people on WoW, first was immature like your ex and the second one I ended up marrying. You'll find the gamer of your dreams, keep your head up OP :)

Bad joke #4, just leave..

I think it doesn't matter how old a person is. Also older people can act like little kids if they can't lose because they're too proud or too ambitious with games and those things :/

He might be 20 or 30 but has the mindset of a 12-year-old.

#25 I would think a 12 year old would have better common sense... more like maybe 6-8 years old.

My Husband is a gamer too. The first time I ever beat him at a game was on a friends wii. We ran right out that night and got ourselves one so we could play more things together. Chin up OP, the right guy is out there.

It's hard to find girls that are really into games like guys are. Your ex is an idiot for rage quitting the relationship because he lost to a girl. He's probably one of those trolls that rage on forums or YouTube comments anyway :p

My ex used to get really abusive and violent over video games, if I was playing one with him everything was my fault (even if he ran in 1v5) but luckily I only received verbal abuse and being ignored for several days. He'd often break things in front of me though. Some gamers are awful :p

#59 Your ex is insane and clearly has anger issues, it has nothing to do with being a gamer.

59 - And that's why you don't date LoL players.

My wife and I used to share an account on Playstation, but I had to make my own because was improving my stats on Call of Duty. We game together all the time, and she generally does better than me. But I didn't want to have good stats that didn't reflect my actual abilities. If I suck, I want people to know I suck, it makes the trash talk easier to swallow

But he obviously does not beat women...

You're better off OP. Good riddance I say.
patrickeli 15
Lol. Well, he was clearly a tool and you're better off without him.

I'm curious.. How long you guys been dating?

Matters not, for she is fortunate to have information about the relationship that could prevent wasting any more time with him.

What a baby! If I were him, I'd just never play with you again! It kinda reminds me of Chandler, Joey and Monica and their foosball.

I only liked this for the Friends reference.

You think never playing with someone who beat you in a videogame is the correct response to this? It's really immature and childish to only do things so you can win, and to stop doing things because someone is better at it than you.

Fatality! Finish Her!

Sore loser, you're too good for him OP!

I love playing video games with my fiance and if she beats me im impressed not mad haha

My wife beats me at games all the time. It's part of being "equals"...
GamerPerson 19
If you don't think of her being equal in anything else, I'd rethink your stance on the term.
AninOnin 24
Sorry you're getting thumbed down, #35. I agree with and appreciate your stance. One should neither be insulted at losing to a girl nor impressed at a girl beating them (unless they are proud of their skill and used to winning, but then it's not necessarily BECAUSE they're a girl that they're impressed xD). It implies that you underestimated her and only play games with her so you can win.
