Today, my boyfriend gave me a card for my birthday and told me to open it 10 minutes after he'd gone; I waited for 5. In the card was written, "It's not working out, but here's $20." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I found out that my boyfriend wrote 50 dollars on my gift card just to look generous, it's really only worth five. I found this out after I tried to buy an arm full of clothes. FML
Today, my boyfriend came to visit me for my birthday. Over dinner he handed me a blank card that had the words "I love you" hastily written on it. When the waiter came to take our order he informed him that we'd be paying separately. Happy Birthday. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me to stay home, because he wanted to come by to give me a birthday surprise. Later on, he came by, posted a note, rung the bell and left. The note was a break up note. FML
Today, I got a rose from my boyfriend. The card read, "It's over." FML
Today, my boyfriend and I went to his best friend’s birthday party. He got her red roses, a necklace and $100 Victoria’s Secret Gift Card. This year he forgot my birthday, gave me a hug and told me to leave his apartment because he had homework to do. We’ve been together for two years. FML
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me through my birthday card. FML
Today, my Dad gave me my birthday card. The envelope was blank, as was the card, and the £0.25 price tag was still on. He was fully aware of all these things, but handed it to me and said, "By the way, I didn't write anything." Happy birthday to me. 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 gave me a $100 gift card for Victoria's Secret. Suspicious, I checked the receipt he'd left in the bag. Turns out he had bought it during the two weeks we were broken up for some other girl who rejected him, so decided to give it to me instead. FML
Today, it was my birthday and everyone in the office chipped in to buy me a card, and nothing but a card. It had a pre-written message on it and a space to write "Love, *insert name*" where everyone signed their names. The "Love" was crossed out and replaced with "From". FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

at least he was nice enough to still give you a gift

They have a new hallmark card. It has a timer so that boyfriends can set it in two modes. Basically if you had waited 10 minutes, the card would have expressed how much he loved you and all. But since you opened it 5 minutes earlier, it was programmed to "dump" mode and deposit 20 dollars. :) :) I kid of course. That sucks though what happened. You should use that 20 dollars to buy him a card and leave 10 bucks for him.

if you'd waited the 10 minutes he might have come back and taken the card before you opened it and given you a real gift... but sorry he's such a coward and couldn't do it in person...:/

Dollar signs go in front of the number. It should be $20. Not 20$.

If you'd have waited 10mins, it would have been a really amazing gift and no breakup. But by opening it early you collapsed the unknown reality into what it was. (think Schrödinger's cat, but with cards)

Shoulda waited 10. Maybe it would have said something different :)
