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

Today, I planned on introducing my fiancé to my parents. After the introductions, and telling him how I hoped our relationship would have the same amount of love and commitment that has lasted my mother and father for 25 years, my parents awkwardly announced their imminent divorce. FML

Feelings
Today, my parents told me, after 30 years of marriage, that they are getting a divorce. I went to my boyfriend's apartment because I needed some comfort. While sobbing to him, he decided to dump me on the spot because my reaction to the news was "immature" and he wants an "adult" relationship. FML

Why would you do that? That seems selfish unless one parent was cheating and the other one needed to know.

what exactly happened that it came to an end? Did one parent cheat? were they unlucky or what? or did you just intentionally do that?

Usually, parents stay together for the sake of the kids. You must be a shit kid to break them up.

Are you ok, OP? :(

I sincerely hope they didn't tell you that you were the cause of them separating! Please immediately seek counseling, OP- if you're in school, go talk to a school counselor or school psychologist. Do it today.

Mistake or not, if another person ended a long term relationship, that tells me that that marriage was going to fail sooner than later, or at least have a long marriage of misery. Even if you helped end it, the decision is ultimately up to your parents, and by no means, was that decision up to you. Feel better OP.
