Today, I went to a restaurant with my boyfriend. After dessert, he went to the bathroom so I quickly called the waiter over and paid the bill, thinking it was a nice gesture. When he returned, he broke up with me for "emasculating" him. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my boyfriend took me out to a fancy dinner. Halfway through, he said he wanted to break up. I started crying, but the whole restaurant thought he'd proposed, and started clapping. FML
Today, my boyfriend asked me out to dinner, which we never do. While at the restaurant he gets down on his knees, looks me in the eyes, and pulls out a little box. He opens it and inside is a note that says 'We're Done.' He then leaves me at the restaurant with the bill and the $2.00 box. FML
Today, I went on a date with a guy who seemed to be quite the gentleman. I was proven wrong when he told me to "shut it" during dinner, stiffed me on the bill, and then left me at the restaurant so he could get his own taxi home. FML
Today, my boyfriend took me to dinner. As we waited for our food he took my hand and said, "I think we should break up." When I got outside, my tire was flat. FML
Today, I treated my boyfriend to an expensive dinner using the last of my paycheck. I had to excuse myself to the bathroom a few minutes in. I came back to find my plate empty. His excuse was, "I didn't want the food to get cold." FML
Today, after dating a guy for 2 months, things seemed to be going well. I offered to buy dinner and trusted he would keep in mind that I'm a college student on a budget. He picked the restaurant, ran up the bill over $100, made me pay, and dumped me right after. FML
Today, my girlfriend and I were out to dinner. She had to use the bathroom, so she went, but the food came while she was in there. She came out, yelling at me for ordering the food to come that exact time, then she broke up with me. FML
Today, my fiance's divorce was finalized and we went out to dinner to celebrate. I stepped away to use the bathroom, then came back to a note on the table saying, "I'm going to enjoy single life, thanks!" He left me with the bill. FML
Today, I went on a dinner date with the guy I like. He ate all his food then started eating off my plate, going on to eat over half of my food. When the bill came, he made me pay for it. FML
Today, I went on a date at a restaurant with a guy. When he promised I wouldn't have to pay the bill, I didn't think he meant we'd be dining and dashing. FML

Maybe I'm just a cheap ass but whenever someone pays for my food, I'm happy.

If he's that insecure about his manhood, then you shouldn't be too sad about losing him.

At least you saved the guy you like some money

He needs to sort his head out if something as small as that threatens his masculinity. Go get yourself a real man, OP. They're more fun :)

That sounds awesome. Can I join in on this?

That's way too much personal information for an FML.

None of us needed to know that. Incredibly disturbing.

Hey english major, i believe it should be for "a FML" you put for "an FML"
doodlecloud 27
Um, no, it really shouldn't be. F is pronounced 'eff' so you need to use 'an'.

Profile disses: Shit just got personal. 50 - I have to say, though, if the "u" doesn't take "an" before the word in "university" because the pronounciation is different to other "u" sounds, why can't we have this sort of lenience on abbreviations, where the sound made by the "F" of FML merits "an"? The whole purpose of "an" and "a" is to make the link between each word as smooth as possible, so it is counter-intuitive to say "a FML" knowing full well that you rponounce each letter seperately. TL;DR: "An FML" should be right for the purposes of making the link between the words smooth, which is the whole point of the an/a system.

That's a crappy excuse to break up with someone

Okay then make him happy by shopping for $500 worth of clothes and him pay. I'm sure he won't mind being a man and buying you whatever you want :p

Damn he needs to chill out. It's dinner you bought not a freakin house. He must have been "feeling" emasculated before this incident. DO NOT stop being generous OP it's definitely his loss.

I understand his point, OP because my hubby wants to pay for everything even while we were dating, it is a man thing. But breaking up with you was a bit extreme. Find a better man OP

You see, by paying for him without giving him an opportunity to try, you demeaned him because he never had a chance to pay at all! How can he have self esteem in the knowledge you subverted his free will so? *sarcastic drawl end*

Who cares? What man wouldn't mind if the woman picks up the tab every once in a while? I mean it's not like she is making you her bitch and buying everything for you like a little baby. Some men need to just grow up and get with the times. You're a good girl, hell marry me? Lol jk :p
