Today, I was debating with my now ex-boyfriend over the ethics of using torture in interrogations of suspected criminals. It took just ten minutes before he freely admitted that he'd have no problem "torturing the shit" out of me if he even suspected I was seeing another man. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I caught my boyfriend in the bathtub interrogating his penis and "drowning" it when it wouldn't answer him. FML
Today, I found out the person who's been stalking and harassing me online was actually my now ex-boyfriend. He only confessed as I finally picked up the phone to report it to the police. He basically said he wanted me to turn to him for comfort and protection, so he could "feel like a man". FML
Today, I had a long talk with my now ex-boyfriend. I explained why I'm not comfortable with him bringing up his new female coworker multiple times a day, talking with her about their kinks and fetishes, or possibly being around her outside of work. We've been together for nine years. He's only known her for a week. FML
Today, my (now ex) boyfriend and I had a fight, during which he said, "This is why I talk to other girls." I called him out for admitting to cheating and he told me I was toxic. FML
Today, I caught my boyfriend cheating on his final exam. I confronted him after class by jokingly asking, "If you cheated on a test, would you cheat on me?" Turns out that yes, yes he would, and he did. FML
Today, I found out just how bad my boyfriend's trust issues are, thanks to him being cheated on in the past. He actually had the nerve to ask his 6 year-old son if I had any other men come over while he was at work. FML
Today, I confronted my boyfriend, suspecting that he has been cheating on me during the past few months. He vehemently denied it. Then told me it would never happen again. What? FML
Today, my boyfriend and I got into a heated argument. He raised his hand like he was going to hit me. Having been hit by my ex before, I panicked and instinctively kicked his legs out from under him. He then dumped me because he said he was just gonna scare me, but I used real violence on him. FML
Today, I was training at work on proper techniques of physical restraint. As my coworker was practicing on me, I realized this was the first time I've had physical contact with a man in years. I'm ashamed to admit how good it felt to feel his weight pressed into my back as I pretended to resist. FML
Today, my now ex-boyfriend told me that I was the one. Not at this moment though, he wants to see how far he can go with his best female friend. But once he's done with her, we can be together. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I'd record next time you have that conversation with him. That way if he actually tries to do anything you can take the recording to the police as evidence and get a restraining order for it.

There won't be anymore of those "Conversations"... She dumped him. But, I think that if he decides to stalk her, she can easily get a restraining order. He seems quite free with information about his personal thoughts.

Why would you break up with him? He seems like a great guy

Text sarcasm is hard to detect so i'm hoping that comment is filled to the brim with it.

Your boyfriend must have serious feelings for you then OP. men tend to not give a **** unless it's something they like/love/want.

Sounds more like control issues.

But there are those who are just possessive. There aren't any tender emotions involved. Those are the ones you have to watch out for.

Please tell me you're joking. That is the rationale behind the continuation of many abusive relationships.

Like, you belong to him because he cares about you? And that's okay? Possessive, obsessive, controlling--call it whatever you want, it can still lead to abuse. My fiance jokes about killing any other guy who touches me, but admits he'd just be heartbroken and leave. That's the proper response to being cheated on. You can be angry and argue about it, throw his/her stuff on the lawn, maybe smash an iPod or phone; but violence in a relationship, for any reason, is unacceptable. Just because you're with someone does not mean they can rule over you. They trust is a key to staying together, so why be with someone who doesn't trust you?

Wait wait wait ladies, what you are saying is completely correct! But, listen to me, if you are having a conversation with your boyfriend, an the talk of cheating comes up what would you say? Ive known more woman to attack their man for cheating than the other way around. It's just a conversation. I do not agree with possessive/controlling men, I've known a few myself. But, there is a huge difference between a conversation and actually acting on your words. I've told my ex in the past if he cheated on me i'd kill him. Im sure you have told someone that before as well, but never acted upon. I mean, if someone cheated on you, that I devistating! Violence is never the answer but I guess I am not taking OPs boyfriend literally on his word.

#49: Most communication in nonverbal. We use body language, tone, and facial expression to get a point across. There was a study a few decades back that claimed words only imparted 7% of language. I don't know if it's disproved, but it makes you realize what cues we pick up silently. If OP thought her boyfriend was serious, it was probably because his body language said he was.

#49, No I've never told anyone that I would kill them (or use any other form of violence) if they cheated on me. However, my ex husband did tell me he would make me watch him kill the man I cheated on him with if I ever cheated. This happened while we were still dating and I should have left him then. Once we were married he became physically abusive and even strangled me just because a friend told him he suspected I was involved with someone else, which wasn't true. He also had several affairs himself. And no, this issue has nothing to do with gender. How many women you know who have assaulted a boyfriend or husband is irrelevant. If you've threatened to kill your boyfriend for cheating on you, I suggest you seriously examine your own heart and mind. I admit that making such threats in jest shouldn't be taken too seriously, but since OP felt the need to dump her boyfriend over this, I doubt he was joking.

If a girl cheated on me I would beat the dudes ass and leave her.

61, Congratulations, you're an idiot.

I have never threatened violence. My fiance has known from day one that I can't bear the thought of him with another woman and would leave if it ever happened, but I wouldn't do anything violent. When my ex cheated I faced the other woman nearly every night when she'd come into my work and throw it in my face. I never so much as refused service (even though I had the right to "for any reason"). She's since hit on a guy she found out liked me and my current fiance. He turned her down flat. I feel sorry for her, feeling like she needs to be the piece on the side instead of being loved for real.

Do you have an older brother or anyone in the family that could do the same to him? If not, I'm always available to beat some sense into a non-respectful douche like him

Smart move in leaving him. He sounds mental.
Enslaved 38
**** him! You're broken up. Don't let him scare you and try to rule your life.
SneakyCaveman 13
Hopefully she stopped ******* him a while ago.
gracehi 33
Good for you for dumping that crazy ****! You've got your pride and he's all alone.

Given the OP's description, I suspect he'll get over it once he finds his next victim...
