Today, I found out my boyfriend thinks I'm too high maintenance because I have a chronic illness which requires frequent hospitalization. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Today, I've been bedridden for the past two weeks. My boyfriend casually remarked that he understands now why some people cheat on their seriously-ill partners. Thanks for adding to the stress, sweetie. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me because I'm "high maintenance." I'd only asked him to use deodorant and brush his teeth. He hasn't had a shower in over a week. FML
Today, I woke up feeling like shit after I had spent the whole night taking care of my sick boyfriend. He got up early, feeling great, bouncing around the house. When I finally got up I told him I didn't feel well and he yelled at me for being a bitch in the morning that slows him down. FML
BPD
Today, my boyfriend is blaming me for his recent diagnosis of Borderline Personality Disorder. Apparently, I should have just kept on tolerating all of his explosive outbursts, instead of "forcing" him to start couples' therapy with me. FML
Today, my boyfriend threw a fit because I "still" live with my mother at age 30. I bought her an apartment in my building and hired a live-in nurse because she is senile and permanently bedridden. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me, because I'm too "high maintenance" during the holidays. Not to worry, though; he's willing give me another chance sometime after Valentine's day. FML
Nervous
Today, I went to the hospital for constant dizziness and insomnia, and was diagnosed with anxiety. I figured out that the main source of my anxiety is not my job but my boyfriend, who has avoidant personality, which makes him constantly refuse almost everything that I request. He's a guy who just doesn't know how to show his love. FML
Today, I went to the hospital due to extreme sickness. My boyfriend saw this as an opportune time to take another girl out since I was "otherwise preoccupied." FML
Today, I told my boyfriend I had diabetes. He won't talk to me anymore because he thinks I'll infect him with it. FML
Quality time
Today, I realized the only time my boyfriend actually makes a little bit of time to see me is when I'm having a full mental breakdown/anxiety attack. FML

"your partner is an ass, break up." golden advice that applies to a high percentage of FMLs.

@ 62 just so you know, thats normal. most people miss a few fml's due to more important things. In ex. work, people, school, life in general, etc...

Count your blessings and be glad you're finding out now instead of later, when there's a rock on your finger. Tell him to take a hike. And give him a swift kick in the jewels on the way out, he'll need something to think about.

Perfectly said!

He will soon find out that a child is even higher maintenance. It's like being constantly hospitalized. And settling down with a family? Why, it's the very same thing, you have to pay the mortgage all the time, and you can't really move anywhere from one place. Are you certain that you want the one who has no stomach for this sort of thing?

Op.. High maintenance for who? He's not paying your medical bills, I'm pretty sure your insurance is. If you have a chronic illness then he should've understood it from the start. He clearly had two options at the beginning of the relationship. 1. Be supportive and stand by his girlfriend or 2. Walk away. Him bitching isn't going to cure your illness. Although getting rid of his unsupportive ass would get rid of some not needed stress.

I'm in the same boat as the OP (minus the boyfriend atm) and it's a lot more stressful than it seems. My ex always tried to be supportive but after a while he started getting impatient and angry because I was getting sick every time we went out. No matter how much the other person tries to understand you'll still both have to deal with a heck of a lot of stress that your ordinary couple doesn't have to deal with. Your partner will get frustrated too. It's not easy for them either and you have to keep that in mind.

There is a curb somewhere that has his name on it OP, I suggest you kick him there.
