Today, my boyfriend decided that he needed some time alone for a few weeks. This break just so happens to include our one year anniversary, Christmas, New Year's, and my birthday. Now I get to spend the next three weeks alone. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my boyfriend told me he wants to break up. But not until after our anniversary tomorrow, because he's already gotten dinner reservations for us. FML
Today, after having recently moved 300 miles to be with my boyfriend of 2 years, I have to celebrate Christmas alone. He never thought our relationship important enough to tell his family about me, and doesn't want it to be "awkward." FML
Today, I went to spend some time with my family. Unbeknownst to me, while I was having quality time with my family, my boyfriend of a year and a half was packing up his belongings and going back to his estranged wife. FML
Today, my girlfriend of almost 3 years told me we needed a break, and that we could try again at the end of the year. FML
Today, I pointed out to my boyfriend how Valentine's day, my birthday, and our one-year anniversary were all coming up in the next few weeks. He then promptly broke up with me. FML
Today, for my birthday, I got a hotel room for me and my boyfriend. He decided that spending time with a female friend was more important than spending time with me. FML
Today, I celebrated my birthday. By that, I mean I spent most of the day alone in a field, waiting for my boyfriend to have time for me, then we broke up, and I ended up spending the evening crying alone on a beach. FML
Today, my fiancé broke it off with me on our 3-year anniversary at 12:01 a.m. on Thanksgiving morning. Guess who gets to go to family gatherings where everyone will be asking where he is. FML
Today, I got a phone call from my boyfriend breaking things off with me. He waited until the day after Christmas because he wanted all his presents. And he got me nothing. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me for asking to spend time with him after not seeing him very much in three months, because he doesn’t have time for me and is so stressed out he doesn’t have time for fun. Then he decided he should go to Mexico with the people he works and lives with so they could have fun together. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Yano #1 since you posted on the other comment im just going to not feel so bad about hijacking your post, but seriously, a girl stands up a guy on their date to go work out. Comments are like "Well you wouldn't want a fat girl friend would you" Ect ect. Now a guy wants to take a break and the comments are just "Break it off omg" I swear... girls keep going on about equality but my ******* god. Either way, this is the last post im ever making at 1:30am o/

I used to do that all the time to my men. Even though I end up single, I will still do that in my future. People just need some alone time.

Basically im continuing my argument from the fml Today, I was stood up on a date. Her excuse? "I had to work out." FML But now its 2am so that's all im saying tonight.

agree with #21 even tho I didn't see the other fml . Girls think it's ok to stand guys up at dates just because their guys . But when guys say they need a break as well , they over-react and start find lots of reasons to say the guys are deliberately avoiding something , like op . So much for equality between genders .

yeah girls usually don't think men deserve excuses but who founded America? a group of men not women

I hope the bloke at least wished her a happy holidays as it would be the most decent thing to do

@ 21 I'd say there's a pretty big difference between standing up someone you barely know on a date and doing this to a girlfriend of 1yr. Obviously standing up someone on a date to work-out is selfish, but now he knows that she's not worth the time. An immature boyfriend who wants to leave his girlfriend alone for all the holidays is obviously just as selfish. I really shouldn't have to spell it out for you but either he wants an excuse to not buy her gifts or he's cheating on her. There's 2 sides to each story, but it sounds like this guy is an asshole and perhaps not worth her time. Anyway, my point is unfortunately you find selfish, inconsiderate people of both genders. Simply because some girl on a completely different FML stood up some guy, does not make his actions more acceptable.

what a cheapskate... and lol at 21 trolling

Yeah...this guy does not want to just "take a break" that conveniently falls over the holidays and a birthday. Best case scenario: he's broke, can't afford gifts and is too embarrassed to say that. It's understandable, but I'd rather have a boyfriend/girlfriend who felt comfortable enough to tell me that, not take a break and leave me hanging out by myself for Christmas, New Years, and my birthday. That's just low! Hence, it's a sign. This guy needs to be dumped. And for the record, a girl who ditches a guy to go the gym is a b*tch and she's not worth a second chance.

yah...a major hint to dump his ass

Good luck finding a bunch of men without the women that birth them!

I'm feeling that dude is a HUGE cheapskate...one that wouldn't be getting any of his Christmas gifts. Then when he was ready to come back I'd break up with him.

freedom to cheat, which is what she is doing

How does she have the freedom to cheat? Her boyfriend is the one needing a break and the girlfriend is depressed about the situation.

Didn't we read an FML the other day that said something to the effect of "I'm thinking about breaking up with my girlfriend so that I don't have to buy her a Christmas present"? Perhaps this is the same couple.

He probably did it on purpose... I say dump the loser.

of course it was done purposefully...how could you accidentally do that?

Girl: I really like this movie. Guy: Yeah, it's good. We need a break. Girl: What??! Guy: Um, I didn't mean to say that! But since I already said it, oh well. Girl: But... Guy: Get out.
