Today, my boyfriend called me and I told him about the AnimeCon I'm attending, and that I wanted to go as Sailor Mars, he told me he had no idea what that was. After being mad for about ten minutes, I realized that I wanted to break up with him over not knowing what Sailor Moon was. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my boyfriend introduced me to his parents and siblings for the first time. Their first reaction was, "Oh? You're her? All this time we thought you're some cartoon character from yet another lousy anime he keeps babbling about." FML
Today, at a Con, I saw a girl in an impressive cosplay of a character from one of my favorite video games. I complimented her on her costume and got a picture with her. Later, my girlfriend called me a cheating creep and broke up with me. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me, because apparently I need to "grow up". He's the one who excessively plays Call of Duty and still has Pokémon and Bionicles in his room. FML
Today, my boyfriend dumped me for knowing more about Batman than he does. He's only seen some of the movies, and as a kid my dad owned a comic book store. He still doesn't see why I should know more, because I'm a girl, and "girls aren't supposed to know about superheroes." FML
Today, I went to a wedding with my boyfriend. He became moonstruck with one my friends and said she looked sexy in her dress. The whole night, I was nonexistent to him. He’s now confused as to why I’m giving him the silent treatment. He literally has no clue. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I broke up because we got into a fight over what color that confusing black and blue and white and gold dress was. FML
Today, I went to go meet my boyfriend at a restaurant to tell him it just wasn't working out. Before I could do so, he proposed. I had to tell him no, so he started to cry and ran out. Everyone looked at me like some kind of monster. FML
Today, my boyfriend of two years said he would finally take me somewhere romantic. I spent my day at a Star Wars convention. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I had the worst fight of our relationship, and I’m not sure we’re going to make it. Why? Because out of all his hobbies and interests that I’ve happily joined in on, I said I had no interest in Harry Potter. FML
Today, I told my husband we could have a "him" day, visit the comic book and games stores, then watch anime. He refused to believe I was genuine, and asked what bad thing I did that I was trying to make up for. We ended up not doing any of it because he thinks I can’t be nice to him without a motive. FML

How old are you? Ten? You don't break up with someone for that kind of reason.

Me too. I also miss Digimon, because it came on right after.

Sailor Mars is a character on a show called "Sailor Moon", named for the series protaganist. As you can guess, the "Sailors" are named after planets (I know the moon ain't a planet!)

1) I'm sure OP realizes how pathetic it is to break up for something like that. Otherwise she would not had posted it. Team Obvious did not need to come to the rescue. 2) I won't say you are too old for loving Sailor Moon that much. What matters is that you enjoy stuff that matches your level of maturity. And maturity sometimes stops improving with age. 3) I would be curious to know what is your concept of romantic relationships. People usually love to introduce their boyfriend/girlfriend to the stuff they like. No mocking intended here, I'm just curious. 4) Keep in mind your relationship would be more boring if your boyfriend would know and love the same things you do prior to meeting him. When both partners in a relationship have their own hobbies and interests, each can discover the other's interests and they end up with more things to do together. At least statistically speaking it works.

I laughed at this one. At least you realized you were mad for a stupid reason before you broke up with him or anything.

Damn, You're stupid. That is a horrible reason to break up with someone. And I personally thought Sailor Moon sucked.

Today, my girlfriend told me she was going to an animecon dressed up as sailor mars. As i did not know what that was she started arguing with me over it. She almost broke up with me because i didn't know an asian cartoon. FML
