Today, I broke up with my girlfriend. After breaking the news to my parents, I heard my dad mutter when I left, "Damn it, I liked her better than him." My mother didn't protest. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me because she heard me say "love you" on the phone. I was talking to my mom. FML
Don't blame me
Today, I had to break up with my girlfriend at her request, because she "didn't have the heart to do it." Within twenty minutes I'd received four calls from mutual friends, including my best friend, telling me what a jerk I am. And one from my mom. FML
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me because of my dad constantly hitting on her. Not because she was disgusted, but because she wants to date him. FML

Today, my girlfriend broke up with me. She told me that her father didn't approve of me and forced her out of the relationship. Her father died 2 years ago. FML
Sweet relief
Today, I broke up with my girlfriend. She was ecstatic. Apparently, she'd been trying to figure out how to break up with me for the past four months. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me because he wasn't feeling our two-month relationship was up to par with his parents' 30-year marriage, and, furthermore, I wasn't similar enough to his mother. FML
Technique
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me. How? He invited my mother to his house for coffee with his parents, and told her. She then had to come home and tell me I’d been dumped. FML
Wrong end of the stick
Today, I went to my girlfriend's house to break up with her. It was a hard decision and both of us became quite emotionally overwhelmed at the time. We began to hug as a final goodbye, then her mum burst in the room and yelled, "HE FINALLY PROPOSED!" FML

Honestly, nothing to say except your parents obviously have no respect for you and your supernatural hearing talents.

He will get over it, OP. Don't let him bring you down. You do what's best for you.

I'm sure your dad loves you but doesn't like who you are at the moment compared to your Ex. Unconditional love is always there bud.

With the number of parents out there who have thrown their sons and daughters out for following a different religion or for being gay or whatever, I feel inclined to think otherwise. "Unconditional" love just does not exist for some people.

If I were in your situation, I'd tell my parents that my supposed 'ex' was a figment of their imagination. :p

I'm almost 100% sure that this got thumbs down because "definitely" is spelled wrong.

You know there are parents out there in the world that don't really care too much about their kid? Those kinds of parents should just put their kid up for adoption so they can have parents that love them.

Plus, minus the misspelling, I'm pretty sure you can't start over with parents and have a redo for new parents? I'm 99% sure you're stuck with the parents that raise you. Unless there is an app for that..
