Today, my boyfriend and I talked about our past relationships. He said he broke up with his last girlfriend because she was "too smart" for him, and that he felt better being with someone who "doesn't have too many lights on upstairs, if you know what I mean." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my boyfriend and I were talking about our past relationships. He told me that he broke up with his last girlfriend because she was smart and he suited someone who was quite stupid. He then went on to say that I was perfect for him. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I were in bed and I asked him why he was with me. His answer was, "Well, the last girl I dated was really smart and she always made me feel dumb, so I decided to switch things up a bit. You make me feel like a genius, babe." FML
Today, my boyfriend dumped me because he said he needed to be with someone smart so that he could impress his parents. I just got accepted into medical school. When I pointed that out to him, he added that he needed to be with someone attractive. FML
Today, I overheard my boyfriend refer to me as a “pretty but dumb chick” because I like horror movies and comedies over his boring pseudo intellectual dramas. I literally have two degrees and I'm working on a third, while he has neither, yet he thinks he’s smarter than me because of movies. FML
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me, because I was apparently "too good" for her. FML
Today, I jokingly asked my boyfriend of one year, "Why is someone as smart, funny and as handsome as you with someone like me?" He replied, "Opposites attract." FML
Today, my boyfriend and I were at a restaurant with a few other couples, and my boyfriend started to rant on how "all the hot chicks are dumb." Apparently, I'm either ugly or stupid. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me because he wasn't feeling our two-month relationship was up to par with his parents' 30-year marriage, and, furthermore, I wasn't similar enough to his mother. FML
Today, my boyfriend of two years accidentally admitted to me that he settled for me because he doesn't think he can do any better. FML
Today, my boyfriend got rejected by his dream college. In an effort to comfort him, I told him that he is incredibly smart and that it's their loss. He replied, "Of course you think so, you're an idiot!" FML

Maybe you should break up with him for being rude and insulting

Well I honestly think she could prove him wrong by leaving him anyway.. Seems smart.

Guys who don't like an intelligent woman are never very intelligent themselves. He seems like a dick, don't let him bother you.

I never really understood why you wouldn't want an intelligent partner and I still don't. Smarter women are very attractive and in my experience physically as well!

He's the dumb one if he didn't think about telling you that.

A man of quality is not threatened by a woman of equality.

You can do better OP. If intelligence is a threat to him then kick him to the curb and find someone who doesn't believe you're stupid.

Just walk away, he obviously is not worth your time...

So far, this fml made me laugh the most. Your bf is the stupid one for telling you such a reason and thinking you wouldn't catch on. Smfh, kick this guys ass to the curb and grab one that isn't such a moronic dumb ass.

He's almost as bad as one I dated for far too long. He told me that I wasn't hot, wasn't pretty but he would say I was cute. Yep, some guys are total asses.

are you ugly or just low self esteem?

He can't have "too many lights on upstairs" either for practically calling you stupid, not thinking you would care too much. Sorry your boyfriend misjudged your iQ, op.
