Today, my boyfriend of two and a half years left me. To clear my head I decided to go for a drive. My car broke down on the way. The only mechanic I have ever used and trusted with my car is my boyfriend. Yes, I had to call him. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I went to my boyfriend's house so that he could break up with me. I went out to my car to leave only to discover that all of the wheels had been stolen. Even the spare. I had to spend the rest of the day with my ex-boyfriend finding a way to get my car home. FML
Today, my boyfriend thought it'd be a good idea to break up with me in his car. I had to walk home. FML
Today, my car broke down. My boyfriend, who is not too handy, insisted on fixing it. He called me outside and said he was done and started the engine. Moments after rejoicing, it burst into flames. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I were driving back to college. He broke up with me 2 hours into the 3 hour drive. I had to sit in the car with him for the last hour. FML
Today, I bought my very first car that I spent years saving for. A few hours after I signed all the papers, I let my boyfriend go for a test drive. He totaled it. FML
Today, I discovered that my boyfriend of two years was cheating on me. How? His other girlfriend crashed her car into mine and had him pick her up. FML
Today, my boyfriend took me to dinner. As we waited for our food he took my hand and said, "I think we should break up." When I got outside, my tire was flat. FML
Today, I got into a huge fight with my boyfriend after driving 200 miles to see him. While arguing, I told him I never wanted to see him again and left after slamming the front door. I left my car keys in his kitchen. FML
Today, I broke up with my boyfriend of 4 years, telling him he needed to be more responsible, and stop relying on me for everything. When I told him to leave, he told me he needed some gas money. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I got into an argument. Naturally, I drove over to my best friend's house for comfort. My boyfriend saw me driving past his house and promptly broke up with me for being "a psycho stalker." She lives across the street from him. FML

To be fair, you didn't HAVE to call him, you chose to.

You didn't have to call him, you chose to. Still a shitty situation to be in. Hopefully you can find a new mechanic.

Invest in AAA.

There is nothing worse than losing a good mechanic. Those guys can screw you over faster than any boyfriend, and you are not even kissed on the neck.

She's definitely a stalker, prolly did something to her own car

Well obviously its the girl thats talking here, not the boy. Thank you VERY much for making me have to be captain obvious here.

I agree with 1. So in the meantime search up a local mechanic so you don't make up excuses and delude yourself that you had no choice.

You guys are acting like you have never been in a longer term relationship..... its hard to just let go.... eventually she will find ways to be more independent but they just split up.... she didn't know what else to do. He is the one that comes to her mind first...

Well, even if it was a same-sex relationship, the would'nt be a girl involved.

Well, did he come? You can't just leave us like this.
thepunman 11
He came. Oh believe me he didn't leave her like that.

"Thepunman" Why am I disappointed here...
RedPillSucks 33
He "came", he "fixed" her right up, and he "drove" her home. Not necessarily in that order.

I think it's time to get a new mechanic. It's time to move on.
runda20 7
If it wasn't on bad terms it'd be fine right?
AllieCat21 21
They JUST broke up that same day.... I'd think that OP was very emotional and not on good terms yet.....
runda20 7
I meant As in a harsh breakup like him stealing things or money I understand its emotional either way

Don't worry Runda I get what you're putting out there. In my last break up I made off with her dog, her hard drive and about 200 bucks - and she f*cking HATED me.

You should have called triple A. Let him go.
xStaciexLynnx 15
Not everyone has triple A...
AngelSpit 18
Pfft triple A is for weenies I have septuplet A!!
nesscafe_fml 17
I dont think we have AAA in australia. Most people call the NRMA.
twinkiefeets 17
23--that's true but she could have called a gas station or anyone else. She didnt have to call ex.

Why go out for a drive if you're angry? Dangerous to others on the road. Next time go for a walk around the neighborhood.
cieloalicia 16
To be fair, she didn't say she was angry. Probably more hurt than anything.
AninOnin 24
Yeah. I always go for a drive when I need time to reflect/be alone. It helps clear the mind.
KeinBaum 12
Still, if your head needs to be cleared you shouldn't be doing something that gets dangerous if you're not paying attention.
flea_of_death 23
Anything could be dangerous if you're not paying attention, though =P

Going for a walk is also a lot better for the environment.

I think this would have been a good time to make an exception.
NewYorkMexPR 14
There are other mechanics in this world you know
cieloalicia 16
You didn't have anyone else? Dad? Uncle? Use Internet on your phone to find a different mechanic? I mean, I feel for you, but there was no one else?
akiahara 14
They don't?
cieloalicia 16
I was just listing options.. Besides, most do actually.
