Today, I knew my relationship was basically over when my boyfriend invited me over, and I was more excited about seeing his dog than seeing him. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I realized my boyfriend's dog is more excited to see me than he is. FML
Today, I realized my family is more excited to see my girlfriend than they are to see me. FML
Today, I realized that I'm going to miss my mom's boyfriend's dog more than I'm actually going to miss him. The relationship is practically over but I've grown fond of his dog. FML
Today, I was invited to a party, but I didn't attend because my boyfriend would be disappointed with me. Instead, I spent the night with him watching movies. At the end of the night, he broke up with me because I wasn't fun enough. FML
Today, after uprooting my life to help my boyfriend, I realized I receive more affection from my landlord's dog than I have from my boyfriend since I've moved here. FML
Today, my long-distance boyfriend was at my house for a 10-day visit. He told me that we'd never spent so much time together, so he didn't know me well and now, he'd finally met the "real me". He doesn't like it. FML
Today, I invited the guy I've been seeing to my home for the first time. He spent over an hour talking to my twelve-year-old dog. Occasionally he would look up to ask me a question, but when I answered he would just continue talking to the dog. FML
Today, I walked into my apartment happy to see my dog. Instead of running to greet me, he ran straight past me to jump into the arms of my roommate, who had just walked in behind me. He wagged his tail like crazy while I stood there, rejected. FML
Today, my boyfriend invited me over for dinner for the first time. The place was full of his ex's stuff, books on the shelves, makeup in the bathroom, clothes in the closet and even shoes on the floor. Not to mention creepy plush toys staring at me. She left him 8 years ago. FML
Today, my boyfriend took me home to have dinner with his parents. I couldn’t eat a single bite after watching his mom let her three dogs taste all the food off her hands, while she also licked her own fingers while cooking. Later on, he dumped me for being rude and “too high maintenance." FML

Does the dog have asthma?

Basically over? ... I hope you let him (the boyfriend, not the dog) know how you feel. Keeping him around for his pet is low balling it, especially if he still thinks he's in a committed relationship.

Well that's because dogs are loyal and would never hurt us unlike humans

I know it's not easy to do but, communication, communication, communication

Oh please, you all are so easy to brush off love. Your problem is you have hit a low. Talk to the guy, see what he thinks. You where attracted to him once. Try to work it out. Put some effort into it. Buy a new dress, get your hair done. Show him you care for him. He will respond and you will have a fresh start.

Who is this "you all" you speak of, you really shouldn't generalize. It's not that "we're" easy to brush off love, it's that we understand when it isn't love anymore, and when the situation is hopeless, it's simply hopeless. Relationships take work, but when you look at your partner and really don't like them or being around them, it can be a sign to move on. You really learn and get to know a person over the course of a relationship, liking them at one point really doesn't mean much because at that point you didn't know them nearly as well. If you find yourself not enjoying being with them anymore, it's often a sign you found something about them or their personality which you do not like, is not compatible, and it simply changes your view of them. Trying to force yourself to like someone when you obviously don't can lead to resentment and anger, just exacerbating problems. And stringing people along only leads to heart break and wastes everyone's time when they could be either single and happy, or finding someone that likes them for who they are.
