Today, by helping my sweet, caring boyfriend get over his crippling insecurities and develop some confidence, I've turned him into a lying, cheating asshole I can't stand. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, after I helped get my boyfriend get a new job, he thanked me by dumping me for some whore who works there. FML
Today, I caught my boyfriend trying to dispose of several empty alcohol bottles, leading to a discussion how dating me and putting up with my insanity has given him a drinking problem just so he can get through the day. Me catching him seemed to be the wake up call he needed, because he dumped me. FML
Today, my boyfriend sent me so many nice texts that he made me fall in love with him that little bit more. It turns out he was sweetening me up before telling me he cheated on me the night before. FML
Today, I broke up with my boyfriend. It isn’t acrimonious, no-one cheated, but his life will apparently “improve immeasurably” now, while mine will basically crash. I’ve spent the past 5 years working on improving as a person for him, and I thought I’d succeeded. FML
Today, I spent hours consoling my girlfriend for getting dumped by the guy she was cheating on me with. FML
Today, my boyfriend lied about having herpes, and used it as an excuse to dump me. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me that he becomes a boring version of himself whenever we are together. FML
Today, I was wrestling with my boyfriend, trying to prove to him that I was stronger. I did. He started crying. He then broke up with me because he couldn't be in a relationship in which his girlfriend was stronger than him. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me, because he didn't trust himself not to cheat on me. What? FML
Today, I spilled my guts out to my fiancé about some insecurities I've been having. I then turned to look at him through tears at his expressionless face as he texted someone. FML

There's a pretty simple solution to that problem. Dump the douchebag. If he was stupid enough to treat you like that after everything, then you deserve better.

No, destroy his confidence and instill new insecurities, THEN break it off. Might as well get something out of it.

You didn't turn him into that, his actions did...because that is the person who was underneath those issues. FYL OP

Maybe but not always the case. A sweet guy who is insecure builds up no self control over temptations. U take away the crippling insecurity and u end up with a guy who without being prepared for it will get female attention without knowing any self control. I used to be and still at times am very insecure but at times I am comfortable I sometimes get presented with very tempting offers to just say the least. For me the fact that I know I get a great deal of my happiness from my wife and kid keeps me from temptations like that, without that I might havebeen tempted back then. By now I can easier resist temptations anyway. But to say he was always like that? U can never know if he was or just not trained to resist temptation.

Don't blame yourself for the choices he made. The sweetest people can sometimes turn out to be the cruelest. His cheating may even be just a mask for those insecurities.

This is not a place where overachievers come and brag. You changed him, I suggest you change yourself now.

What if he was always like that and was only putting on a front for you?
