Today, my boyfriend woke up wheezing terribly, aching, and sneezing. He's allergic to cats. I have 2 and they are my babies. He gave me an ultimatum, him or the cats. I haven't figured out how I'm going to tell him that I choose the cats. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my boyfriend bought us three kittens. Today, I also discovered that I am allergic to cats. My boyfriend broke up with me because he wanted the cats more than me. FML
Today, I went to the doctor to find out why I've been feeling so sick the past several weeks. Turns out, I'm severely allergic to the cat of my girlfriend of two years. I told her "It's me or the cat." She chose the cat. FML
Today, after being diagnosed with cat allergies, I explained to my cat-loving boyfriend that the doctor strongly recommended not allowing the cat in the bedroom. At 1:30 a.m. my boyfriend got out of the bed to go sleep in the spare room because, "the cat is sad." FML
Today, my boyfriend told me I had to get rid of my cats, or he would leave. He punched a hole in my wall when I told him I chose the cats. FML
Today, I went to meet my boyfriend's parents for the first time. While I was there, I started to get really itchy. Turns out they have 5 cats. Guess what I'm allergic to? FML
Today, I told my mom I'm severely allergic to my cat and that the doctor told me it would be best to get rid of the cat. Somewhat jokingly, I told her it was either me or the cat. She chose the cat. She was serious too. FML
Today, to celebrate moving into a new apartment, my girlfriend decided she would get a kitten. She didn't know I'm allergic to cats. When I told her, she decided that she couldn't date someone who couldn't be around her cat; the one she doesn't have yet. FML
Today, I discovered that my son has an allergy to cats. My partner of two years, not wanting to fight, suggested a compromise: that my son and the cat take turns sleeping outside. FML
Today, my roommates adopted two kittens without consulting me. We're not allowed to have pets in our apartment and I'm severely allergic to cats. Oh well, it's not like I needed to be able to breathe this summer. FML
Today, I bought a kitten. I've wanted a cat for years and decided to finally buy one now that I have my own apartment. It turns out I'm allergic to cats. FML

Bravo for keeping your cats! It's nice to see at least one person who won't dump them just because their bf is allergic.

To all of you people who say she did the right thing choosing the cats instead of her boyfriend, imagine if the roles were reversed, the boyfriend having the cats and the girlfriend being allergic. Imagine the story like that.

Wow, you think the genders make a difference? Forget people, cats rule!

I would've done the same thing. I wouldn't ever put some girlfriend/boyfriend over my precious dog. I love him more than anything! Only I wouldn't have pondered for a while over how to tell him. The second he have me the ultimatum, I'd tell him to get the **** out XD

Pets are for life, and he's a boyfriend, not husband. My animals are one of my life passions, one of the things that makes my life whole. I don't want to share my life with someone who can't or won't accept that. He can get pills or compromise by making certain rooms off limits to pets.

You disgust me

You are a terrible, disgusting asshole and you should feel ashamed. As someone who is allergic to cats, I know unbearable it can be, you are just a jerk who was undeniably cruel to your bf, for some animals. Shame!

**** most of the previous commenters. You would take a person that you've known for a few months over a loving pet that you've had for years?
