Today, it was my birthday. I spent all day in bed, sick with the flu. My boyfriend then broke up with me by text, because he didn't want to risk getting sick by doing it in person. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I got the flu. Feeling really sick and depressed, I called my boyfriend to get some comfort. When he didn't answer his phone, I called his house, only to hear his mother telling me, "He was so sad that you guys broke up." I didn't know. FML
Today, it's my birthday. I woke up to a text message from my boyfriend, breaking up with me. When I commented on his impeccably bad timing, he admitted he'd forgotten it was my birthday. FML

Today, my boyfriend of a year dumped me by text. It's also the day that the birthday present I ordered for him was finally processed and shipped, meaning I can't cancel and get my money back. FML

Today, I woke up on my boyfriend's bedroom floor. When I asked him why I was there, he said I'd gotten too hot, so he rolled me off his bed. I have the flu and a fever. FML

Go over to him and tell him what a jerk he is in person. After your birthday of course, today is all about you. Happy birthday!

Your boyfriend sounds like a douche anyway. If he had to break up with you, he should have waited until you were feeling better and then do it in person.

He sounds like an idiot. If he doesn't even want to care for you when you're sick and respect you enough to wait until the next day and also to do it to you're face, you're better off without!

That sucks, but hey maybe it's a good thing bcuz now you can find someone that'll be there for you when you're sick and take care of you instead of being a bitch about them getting sick. Germs are in the air. If you're gonna get sick, you're gonna get sick. Happy birthday & hope u feel better ASAP!

I'd go and cough and sneeze on him just to be spiteful.

What a coward. I hope you have to go to the hospital and end up meeting a hot doctor who is crazy about you. Happy Birthday.

What? "I hope you get really, really sick that you have to be admitted to the hospital. Then, maybe, on a small off chance, there will be a hot doctor that dates his patients. That will show your ex!"
