Today, I told my boyfriend his shirt and pants did not match and that he should change for dinner. All my belongings are now on the sidewalk. FML

Sneaky sneaky...
Today, while on vacation, I found out that my boyfriend moved out. He had claimed that he couldn't come with me because his boss messed up his time off request, and for the last two days he said he'd been "cleaning". FML

Today, my boyfriend once again cancelled a date because he has too much homework. His professor is my dad, who's assigning astronomical amounts of homework to keep us from seeing each other. FML

Toxic masculinity = No housework
Today, my boyfriend got upset after I politely asked him to do the laundry. He takes every chance he gets to act macho and brag to people about how he's in the Marines, but apparently he is too much of a pussy to act like a man and clean his own clothes. FML

Today, my boyfriend did the washing as an attempt to help me. Not only are all my clothes now pink, he refuses to do the dishes, vacuuming, bathroom, ironing etc., as he has done "plenty." FML

He's got his priorities straight.

Sounds like he's putting in as much effort into the relationship as he did trying to come up with that excuse.

1st rule of towel club is you don't talk about towel club

Oh, man, "iron my towels" sounds like code for something. Could he actually be doing the dishes and not want to worry you?

Oh my... I think you're onto something here.

No irons use heat. It sounds like he's doing something with heat. Perhaps fixing the heater or the water heating unit?

I wouldn't even believe that excuse if he were gay.

I'm as queer as a three dollar bill and even I don't iron jack shit. Do people still do that?

Most every fabric is wrinkle free now, so I'd say not really. I think I've ironed like three times in my whole life
WinterChild 20
No that's why I said I wouldn't believe it. Most of my gay friends care more and have better style than my straight ones and even they don't iron.

That's nothing, #15. I wouldn't believe that excuse even if he were panromantic, sapiosexual, and fetishized words with three adjacent consonants. Get on my level of skepticism.

Your level of skepticism is over 9000

you should use that excuse when he is trying to get some action

Don't worry, maybe he just had a diarrhea attack and didn't want you to be grossed out. Or maybe he likes having nice towels.
