Today, I wrote my girlfriend a song. She wrote me a 13-page letter on why we should break up. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste
Today, my boyfriend wrote a song for me. As he was singing it to me I realized it was actually a breakup song. FML
Today, my girlfriend found a letter I'd written to myself for moral support while we were broken up, in which I explained why we would never work out. Apparently I made a convincing argument. FML
Today, I poured my heart out to my girlfriend with a serenade. After I finished, she told me she'd come over to tell me she'd found someone else and wanted to break up. FML
Today, my boyfriend of two years, who is a fabulous guitarist and singer, told me he wrote me a song. I was so excited. Turns out it was a break up song. FML
Today, I wrote the girl I love a long, gushy letter to convince her to be with me instead of her abusive ex. Later on, I asked her what she thought. She said she can't read cursive. She chose the ex. FML
Today, I wrote a long, loving and emotional Christmas letter to my girlfriend, leaving it for her to read when she woke up. Halfway through the day, I received a text stating that she saw my "breakup letter" and threw out all my stuff. I can't even contact her now. FML
My gift is my song and this one's for you
Today, my ex got dumped by his girlfriend. Seeing my opportunity, I sent him a song I'd written for him, about how much I still love him. He sent it on to the girl who had just dumped him, claiming he had written it. They're now back together. FML
No thanks
Today, I worked up the courage to confess my feelings to this girl I'm crazy about. I even wrote and recorded a song for her. Instead of listening to it, she gave it to her ex-boyfriend, who responded to my heartfelt words by headbutting me. FML
Today, I was planning on breaking up with my girlfriend of five years in two days time. She just mailed me a care package that said, "I'd die without you." FML
Today, my boyfriend asked me if we were going to become "that stupid couple that sings cheesy songs to each other." I just spent the past 3 months writing the perfect song that I was planning on singing to him tonight. FML

Am I the only one wondering the number of things she was dissatisfied that resulted in a 13 page letter?

Tell her it was too long and you didn't read.

#33, not only is that off topic, it doesn't make any sense.

#33 really needs a crash course in punctuation.

Took me a bit to fully understand 33s comment.

I believe they're saying don't ignore any complaints your SO voices to you.

That reminds me of another FML

So if a girl decides she no longer wants to be in a relationship with someone, she's a bitch? You sound like such a nice person.

Even if that was rude, I agree with #3 here, just because a girl wants to break up doesn't make her a bitch, but writing 13 pages about it to a guy who just wrote a whole song for her makes her a bitch for sure. Breaking up is already a painful experience, unless you're asked why, blabbing about it to the other person isn't needed. Unless OP is a horrible lover, and it doesn't seem like it, she could have just met up with him and told him it wasn't going to work.

While 13 pages does seem erm, a tad excessive, I think it's much more thoughtful to try and explain why you're breaking up with someone, rather than just dumping someone like that. I think it's sort of sweet she took the time and effort of writing a letter, although it does seem like she got carried away a bit! And I'm thinking she'd probably already written the letter, you don't just write a 13 page letter on the spot, so I'd be surprised if it was written as a reaction to the love song...

If you can get 13 pages worth of reasons your relationship needs to end then you probably should have ended things a while ago.

Blood is red Bruises are blue Dump that bitch Go anew

actually OP doesn't have to dump her, he's already got that covered

it feels like she's scraping from the bottom of the barrel to hurt his feelings
jtthegr8 26
They could have possibly been a really long relationship and she had a lot of material. Or wrote it like an essay and had multiple paragraphs for 13 things
blazerman_fml 17
Probably wrote "You Suck" over and over in different fonts. :/

Yeah, this. I get the feeling that if those 13 pages were entirely unreasonable, trivial shit, that would've been mentioned in the FML too. Writing a song doesn't negate it if he treated her shittily beforehand.

It sounds like she didn't leave anything unsaid. But really if I had to guess, I'd say she'd have her points followed by specific examples so he couldn't just deny to her or himself that he had the quality or took that action or whatever the point was. Or she had complicated personal issues that needed resolved outside of him. Maybe both, it was 13 pages.

Maybe you can Taylor Swift that shit and use the break up letter as inspiration to write a bunch of other songs. Mainly about exes and break ups and such...
PrincessZelda_HR 22
"Taylor Swift that shit" is my new favorite phrase, thank you.

Did you rad all 13 pages?

Probably an English major and a bitch
saxaddict122 14
She's probably not an English major, she'd be too broke to support herself without OP...
Enkeria 30
Umm...#15, my sister is an English major and is doing just fine. That was definitely uncalled for.

Tell her "I don't know what your letter says, I didn't read it but it's things like writing 13 page letters that make me need to break up with you"

You guys weren't gonna work out anyway sounds like.
