Today, I was on a date with my boyfriend. As we walked back home from the cinema, he was checking his phone, when suddenly someone grabbed it and ran off. I had to be the one to go run after the thug because my 23-year-old boyfriend froze on the spot, crying. FML

Hey OP here o/ Lots of these comments cracked me up, you guys are awesome xD So here's the follow up: In the end someone who saw what happened grabbed the guy and we could get the phone back (Yes, an iPhone) but he ran away, though it doesn't matter anymore. In response to the comments: 1.I didn't expect him to run after the thug just because he's male, I understand why he'd freeze up, I just didn't expect he'd start crying without saying a word and it was kinda embarrassing. 2.Yeah probably going after him wouldn't have been the safest thing to do, but caught in the spur of the moment that was all I thought to do. And calling the police wouldn't help where I am, they're practically useless -.- Calling for a robbed phone would do nothing. 3.I'm not breaking up with him just because of that, I love him, things happen, I'm not that shallow. Thanks for your comments anyway xD

Neither of you did what you should do when somebody steals your phone. CALL THE POLICE. It's a criminal act, people!

I'm sure YOU'D cry if your phone was taken, just because he's a man doesn't mean he's not allowed to freak out.

That's amazingly brave of you, I know I don't have a ninja reaction like that (although I'd like to think I do)

So, dump him and move on! If he handles emergencies like THIS so poorly, when something REALLY bad happens, what's he going to do, hide under the bed?

You'd really break up with someone because of that? How shallow. I'm pretty sure most people would be scared if they got mugged, male or female.

Everyone reacts to situations differently I suppose. But, FYL. That is a tad embarassing!
