Today, I called my boyfriend and asked if he wanted to come watch a movie. He seemed eager, until I said I needed the company because my period had started. He then went dead silent, waited a few seconds before starting to fake-snore, then hung up on me. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my boyfriend was complaining about how we never see the movies he wants to see. So I took him to the movies, and he picked which one. Then he fell asleep. FML
Today, I was on my period, so I felt a little emotional, and asked my boyfriend for some attention. He said he needed ten minutes to finish his game with his friend. I laid down on the floor and started crying hysterically. He broke up with me and left. FML
Today, I called my boyfriend at 2 a.m., telling him I couldn't sleep. He replied, "Well, I can," and hung up. FML
Today, while I was at my boyfriend's house, I got my period. About an hour after I told him, he impatiently said, "Is it over yet?" FML
Today, I broke up with my boyfriend. I called him about two minutes after, and he'd already fallen asleep. FML
Today, my best friend called me to cancel our mall plans. I could hear that she was watching a movie in the background. I then called my boyfriend to see if he was busy, and I could hear the same movie in the background. FML
Today, I tried to talk to my boyfriend about our communication problems. He fell asleep. FML
Today, I called my fiancé just to tell him how much I love him, as a sweet gesture. He yelled at me for interrupting his video game and blamed my "neediness" on the fact that I'm menstruating. FML
Today, I was having the worst period cramps you could ever imagine. I cancelled the date I had with my "boyfriend." He replied, “Isn’t there some medicine you can take to make it go away?” When I told him I did and still had them, he said, “Fine, lose my number, I’ll find a girl who doesn’t have that shit.” FML
Today, my boyfriend fell asleep while watching TV. I thought it would be cute to try to kiss him awake like they do in the movies. He farted. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Next time he wants something, do a fake-snore.

I'm sorry, I laughed way harder at that then I should have. Not because it happened, but because your boyfriend thought you'd actually buy it. I don't know if he has a reason behind it from past experiences or if he's just a jerk, but that honestly sucks, OP. I hope you feel better!

This guy sounds like a complete child. I mean who does fake snoring to get out of a situation like that? I'm sorry you have such a shitty boyfriend op but honestly you should dump his immature ass.

He's a guy. You gotta wait till he's already there to tell him that.

Or, he can be mature, instead of acting like a juvenile asshole, and accept that his gf gets periods like every grown woman, and be there for her during this uncomfortable time.

Acting like that, 40, is manipulative and giving women a bad name. You don't have to hide your situation from your S/O--not if you're both mature adults who realize this is a natural part of life.

I wouldn't usually say this,but,dump that douche.If he can't accept the fact that something completely normal is happening then he's an asshole.Find someone better.Someone who will be perfectly happy to cuddle you when you're in pain.

I don't know if he's normally a great boyfriend, although it really doesn't sound that way, but it may be time to look at your relationship in greater detail. Does he usually seem less involved or around during your period? If so, time to upgrade to someone better - an actual man, and not a booty calling man child.

Meanwhile: my boyfriend brought me to the store simply so I could buy my 'lady products', then checked them out for me since I didn't know how to use the self-checkout... may be time to get a new boyfriend, OP.

Relationships develop over time and if it is company you seek, and his eagerness is consistently only physical, only then should you start taking stock on maintaining the relationship if he only wants physical. Either way, good post!
