Today, I got in a fight with my boyfriend. I sent him a long message pouring my heart out about how hurt I am that he constantly ignores me or responds to almost everything I say in monosyllables. He texted back "ok". FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I confronted my boyfriend after he received a text with a bunch of hearts on it. After arguing, turns out it was from me. FML
Today, I sent my boyfriend a long and heartfelt message. He responded with "tl; dr". FML
Today, my boyfriend and I got into a fight. We yelled for 20 minutes and then he put his hands on my neck. Once we'd calmed down, he explained he wanted to strangle me like Homer does Bart, but didn't follow through. This all started when I asked if he read a text I sent earlier in the day. FML
Today, my boyfriend refuses to talk to me because of a misread text. FML
Today, I had a massive argument with my boyfriend, in which he called me stupid repeatedly. I stomped out of his house and sent a very angry text to my best friend about him. She didn't text back. Then my boyfriend texted, "My girlfriend is so stupid, she can't even text the right number." FML
Today, after my boyfriend ignored me for hours playing video games, he gave me some attention for a little bit. When I tried to run my fingers through his hair, I missed and punched him in the face. FML
Today, after a hard day's work and emotional argument with my best friend, I sent my boyfriend a text telling him how much I loved him and cherished him in the hopes he would cheer me up with a romantic reply. He said "Sorry, I've only got 8 texts left." FML
Today, my boyfriend came over and dropped off my phone, which I'd left at his place the night before. He immediately left in a sulk. As I looked through my texts, I discovered he was only so moody because I hadn't answered any of his calls or messages. I'm dating an idiot. FML
Today, I sent my boyfriend a sweet text message, since he recently complained that I'm rarely romantic. Instead of being happy, he decided that since it's so out of character for me, I must be cheating on him and must have only sent it out of guilt. FML
Today, I tried to tell my boyfriend how I have been feeling recently in our relationship. He lashed out at me, saying I was just accusing him of being the bad guy. I guess I'll never express my feelings ever again. FML

Maybe it's a good idea to talk face to face about how you feel

Stop texting him, and confront him, cause you deserve better.

Or just dump him for being a dick?

Ideally, yes. But it can be hard for some people to say how they really feel in person. Which is why some people do so via text.

It's possible that they have talked face to face since OP gave 2 examples of their communication. Some people just don't care to engage in conversation. And if that's the case with your boyfriend, you may be better off without. Sorry OP.

He obviously doesn't care about her feelings or he wouldn't have replied "ok". But they do need a face to face discussion to see what's in his mind.

I will offer some insight into a similar situation. I always tell my boyfriend that I refuse to argue or communicate serious issues via text. If he wants to write novels via text about his feelings, my response is usually "Okay." Does that mean I don't care? Of course not. Does that mean I would rather not have a thumb-war with someone back and forth and type novels? That's exactly what that means. Also #65, being uncomfortable communicating things in person is no excuse. When you're in a relationship, that's part of the responsibility of being with someone else. Proper communication. It's best done face-to-face. It's easier, faster, and you don't feel like chucking your phone at a wall if you don't like what you read. And yes, I will accept being the asshole for being the one to say it. Sorry guys.

He might not be as invested in the relationship as you

Or maybe he's an entirely reasonable person that realizes no serious discussion should ever happen over text. Please read #79 above your post. she is a reasonable person.

Face to face would be best OP..

Does she though? She texted him instead of talking face to face. She sounds like a drama queen.

Or maybe it's a long distance relationship and she couldn't talk to him face to face?
brezzyanna 17
Skype or a phone call then, if it's long distance.

"K".

maybe the problem here is that he is a dick and you are desperate
Misswildsides 22
Desperate for what? Him to show her that she actually means something to him? I don't see a problem with that.
kingdomgirl94 29
Desperate enough to put up with his bullshit. OP deserves better.
Steve97 32
Don't hate on the man for speaking the truth.
rockergal21 16

Sorry op, that really sucks. Maybe it's time to have a face to face talk
