Today, I went to the doctor to find out why I've been feeling so sick the past several weeks. Turns out, I'm severely allergic to the cat of my girlfriend of two years. I told her "It's me or the cat." She chose the cat. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I told my mom I'm severely allergic to my cat and that the doctor told me it would be best to get rid of the cat. Somewhat jokingly, I told her it was either me or the cat. She chose the cat. She was serious too. FML
Today, to celebrate moving into a new apartment, my girlfriend decided she would get a kitten. She didn't know I'm allergic to cats. When I told her, she decided that she couldn't date someone who couldn't be around her cat; the one she doesn't have yet. FML
Today, I found out my cat is allergic to ME. No kidding. FML
Today, my boyfriend woke up wheezing terribly, aching, and sneezing. He's allergic to cats. I have 2 and they are my babies. He gave me an ultimatum, him or the cats. I haven't figured out how I'm going to tell him that I choose the cats. FML
Today, I told my wife if she wanted to get a divorce, she just had to get a cat since I'm deathly allergic. She got two. FML
Today, after being diagnosed with cat allergies, I explained to my cat-loving boyfriend that the doctor strongly recommended not allowing the cat in the bedroom. At 1:30 a.m. my boyfriend got out of the bed to go sleep in the spare room because, "the cat is sad." FML
Today, my boyfriend bought us three kittens. Today, I also discovered that I am allergic to cats. My boyfriend broke up with me because he wanted the cats more than me. FML
Today, I went to the doctor for allergy testing. Apparently, one of my worst allergies is cats. I'm a "crazy cat lady" who loves anything cat-related and has 3 cats. Allergy shots, here I come. FML
Today, I bought a kitten. I've wanted a cat for years and decided to finally buy one now that I have my own apartment. It turns out I'm allergic to cats. FML
Today, after 3 years of studying to be a veterinarian, I found out I may not be able to continue. It's not because I'm failing my classes, but because my body has developed an allergy to cats. FML

That was a bit selfish of you. There are such things as allergy medicine. To some people, their pets are like their children. And for you to make such an ultimatum is an asshole move. Good job.

Ultimatums like that seldom work for those that give them.

I know someone probly already said it, but dude, you just don't demand that someone get rid of their pet. I hope you apologize to your girl and try to work it out, she'll likely take you back.

if she has had the cat for 2 years, and you only just started being allergic a few weeks ago, the cat was clearly in her life before you. you had no right to make her choose. if some guy told me it was him or my cat, that would be a clear indicator that he should be dumped.

I'd choose my cats too. There are other fish in the sea who aren't allergic to cats.

ultimatums are stupid. why would she have to pick one or the other. get some medicine for your allergies.

Haha, I'd choose the cat too. You're stupid for not finding a better solution.

You honestly expected her to get rid of her cat for you? That was just stupid and selfish on your part. You shouldn've made a ultimatum like that. A pet is a cared for member of a family. You're just a boyfriend...Idiot...

I hate cats as much as the next guy, but I can understand this. I'd pick my dog over some girl. Why didn't you just suggest that she come over to your house, rather than threatening such a douchey ultimatum?
