Today, my boyfriend sent me a text telling me to turn the radio on to a certain station. When I did, there was a talk show on, and the host was ranting about how important it is for women to control themselves and not be emotional. My boyfriend continued texting me, asking if I was listening. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste
Alexa, play "Charmless Man" by Blur
Today, I accidentally changed the radio station in my boyfriend’s car. He threw a humongous fit and started driving recklessly, almost causing an accident on several occasions. He then dropped me off at a stop sign and told me to, "walk home, you need to lose weight anyway, fat bitch." FML
Hush
Today, my boyfriend was having a really bad day, so I decided to call him and try to calm him down. At one point, I thought it would be sweet to sing him a song since he claimed to love my voice. Before I could get half way through, he told me to shut up because I was getting on his nerves and just making things worse. FML
Today, my drunk boyfriend flipped out and told me I was a total control freak, and that he couldn't handle how weird and clingy I am. All I did was ask if his phone was charged. FML
Today, while my boyfriend and I were watching TV, I asked him if he loved me. He turned up the volume. FML
Stay outta this
Today, I was having a heated argument with my boyfriend over the phone. Mid-sentence, I yelled, “You never listen to me!” Alexa, from across the room, replied, “I’m listening.” My boyfriend started laughing so hard that he hung up. FML
My man
Today, my man complained about having to listen to my "emotional problems for hours." Yeah, we did talk for two hours, 90% of which was him asking for my advice on which new mattress to buy for his bed. FML
Secretive
Today, my boyfriend starting going off on me, calling me a psycho, all because I opened our bedroom door while he was in there. FML
Girl power!
Today, I was trying to break up with my boyfriend over text. I was being really careful to phrase it nicely, and I hit send with a sigh of relief. Except I sent the text to my mom, who now keeps sending me unsolicited advice about my "love life" with an occasional "You go, girl!" FML
Today, I told my boyfriend I loved him. His response? "Is that why you have been so clingy and annoying lately?" FML
Nice victim blaming, dude
Today, I had to tell my boyfriend his dad was sending me inappropriate texts that made me feel uncomfortable. I tried to make him stop, but he kept going until I felt like I needed to tell my boyfriend. Who's now broken up with me because of it. FML

Yes, it's very important for us women to not be emotional and to just shut up and listen to our men. Emotions, you see, are not natural parts of life, but irrational outbursts that we must learn to control! Your bf is a jackass.

I don't know just how emotional you are, but there is definitely such a thing as being too emotional, so maybe that's what your boyfriend is trying to tell you. Seriously, not everyone likes a drama queen...making a scene out of every little thing just makes you look stupid. A few days ago, I heard 2 girls at my school fighting cause one bough the same shirt as the other without realizing it. It was even a different color, and the one who had it first was accusing the other of copying her and tried to make her return the damn shirt and apologize for buying it. People these days...xP Point is, just try to let things go sometimes, always listen to the other side of the story before jumping to conclusions and making accusations, and know when it's appropriate to share your feelings, and when it's just not. I'm a girl....I know we can be emotional, and while we can't control our emotions sometimes, we can usually control when we show them, and who we show them to.

Holy shit. Not only is that awesome, but to the talk show host- Right on dawg. God, I totally know what it's like to deal with females flying off the handle, and I can actually play it both ways--logical or emotional (economics major, but also grew up with 3 sisters). Women can be like minefields sometimes.

haha! hey, it was probably hard for him to come out and say that you were being emotional. Seriously, how do you tell an emotional person they're being too emotional without hurting their feelings? Doing it this way, at least he was trying to be funny. just take it as a joke and maybe take a few pointers on what the station said. and then get him back the next time he acts immature ;)

I'm 5000 times more emotional and bitchy than any girl I've ever met. It would be okay if the host didn't direct his comments at women... Sure, women shouldn't get too emotional. Does that mean it's okay for guys? Your bf is a dick, I hope you emotioned the **** out of him.

Do the following. 1. get angry at him immediately. 2. dump him. 3. rant about it on FML. 4. do exactly what the radio told you not to do. voila! I'm not on your side, apparently.
