Today, my boyfriend threw out my old voicemail recorder, thinking it was junk. My father passed away years ago. I kept a recording of the last voicemail he'd left me on it so I'd always remember his voice. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Nice to know
Today, my father got married. He left me a voicemail to tell me all about it. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me by rapping in a voicemail. FML
Today, I ran up to my boyfriend and gave him a kiss. I didn't understand why the girl next to him got upset, but it turns out the voicemail I deleted by accident was him breaking up with me. FML
Today, my dad got a new phone and put me on speed dial. I have received several voice mails from him accidentally dialed. They are from him riding the train, in a meeting, having lunch, and, most recently, him taking a monstrous dump. FML
Today, I was going to record a song I wrote for my dad, who I haven't spoke to in a couple of years. After getting things together, I called my mom to let her know I'd be doing this. She informed me he died. A year ago. FML
Today, my boyfriend sent me a text saying to call him. When I did, it went straight to voicemail. It was a recording of him breaking up with me. He broke up with me over the phone, without even talking to me. FML
Today, after we got home from the doctor's office, my mom checked the voicemail. Loud and clear, we both heard my boyfriend's break-up message. My parents had already forbidden me from dating. FML
Boomers
Today, I asked my father if I could have my grandfather's old vinyls, record player, and vintage tube radio. He told me he threw those out years ago because, "Who listens to that crap anymore, now that we have mp3s?" FML
Today, I took out my phone and realized I butt dialed my girlfriend and left her a 4 minute voicemail of me farting in an echoing toilet bowl. FML
Today, I found my 6-year-old daughter recording herself on her little tape recorder. When I asked her what she was up to, she replied in her cute little voice, "I'm recording myself so you'll have a souvenir when I'm dead." FML

I have a answering machine with my several of my gmas last messages on it. my whole family loves to listen to it at christmas eve, which we always used to have at her house, my whole family would be devasted to lose that. its not neccessary to get rid of these things to move on, i've moved on, its not like i sit in my room replaying the tape over and over, but it is nice to have on occasion.

I'm sorry OP, loss is an awful feeling. Is it too late to check the trash/dumpsters for the recorder? As for the boyfriend- I once allowed a BF to move in with me. Soon after, he cleared out a lot of my stuff to make room for his friend to move in. The take over had begun. It may not be true with everyone, but "my" Guy's disregard for personal property extended into his disregard for personal space and me. He was like a weed, driving me out of my own home, bringing in everything of his own, ridding the place if me and my things.

I'd break his ******* jaw, I have a voice mail from my brother an hour before he died. His widow kept everything and wants my voice mail tape, I know your rage

I would be pissed not only to throw out a highly personal recording but something that was not his.

For me, that would be the end of the relationship. People shouldn't touch what isn't theirs without permission of the owner. Jackass.
