Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Today, my co-worker handed me the phone and said it was my boyfriend calling, so I answered "Hello, Love!" It was my boss. FML

Today, I called my boyfriend's job to ask him a question. His co-worker answered the phone, and when I asked for my boyfriend, he assumed I was someone else. Who exactly would that someone else be? FML

Slipping
Today, I called one of my coworkers to ask him where he was, because I needed him to come downstairs. After 2 minutes of yelling on the phone to come downstairs, I realized I'd called the wrong person, and was actually on the phone with my ex-boyfriend, who took me 6 months to get over. FML

Surprise
Today, I went to my boyfriend's work to surprise him. When I got there, I called him on his phone to tell him to turn around. I saw him look at his phone. His co-worker next to him asked who that was. He replied, "Just this fat chick I know." FML

Am I the asshole?
Today, I fucked up when I answered a phone call. I wasn't sure who the number was at first, and it turned out to be my ex girlfriend who had apparently been stalking me. She asked me how my new girlfriend was, and as I answered it in front of my girlfriend, she's now depressed. FML

So your boyfriend isn't permitted to have female friends?

Yeah if they are just friends it is fine - seems quite odd though that OP didn't know about their friendship and that he felt comfortable enough to answer her phone.

#38 Maybe he just didn't feel the need to talk about her that much? And so what if he answers the phone for her? What if she asked him to while she was away for a few seconds?

That is true - I was assuming it was a house phone in which case I would basically not ever pick it up unless I lived there or had been given explicit permission to do so, a mobile is a bit different as then you can see who is calling so I doubt he would have picked up if he had anything to hide.

Yeah, I'd like to say this was just paranoia on the OP's part.

The one case where it wouldnt make you the asshole for breaking up with him over the phone

For jumping to conclusions and assuming something shady is going on? Sounds like a pretty asshole reason to dump someone whether over the phone or not.

Better to have found it out now than much later on or never. Hope that you kick his ass to the curb. Men will give any excuse they can think of that they think you'd be dumb enough to believe when it comes to cheating and similar actions.

where i agree with the first two things you said....you then became sexist on the last. Both sex's are guilty of that.

Today, after being freaking slick and not getting caught cheating on my girlfriend with a former coworker of hers, I didn't think to check the caller ID when a call came through to her house. I decided to be nice and answer the phone. Guess who was on the other end. FML The You Deserve It button now is the Facebook Like button. In other news, tell me you ditched him, please.

Plot twist: OP is actually an overly-attached psycho girlfriend and that wasn't her boyfriend.

Well he's clearly not the sharpest tool in the shed. Time to throw that piece of junk out. And maybe sabotage the coworker? :-P

There is no way that was a coincidence. You had suspicions and they were right.
strike2867 13
So let's get this straight, she had suspicions, so she decided to call, somehow expecting the boyfriend to pick up? Or in the other case asking if she's seeing her boyfriend, and expecting her to not lie?

Wrong number maybe ?
