Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Today, after months of being pestered to do so, I finally read the first Harry Potter book. I hated it. Upon hearing this, my girlfriend posted the fact on Facebook, where I immediately received tons of abuse and eventual shunning by my friends, family, and coworkers. My girlfriend just laughed. FML
fuck Harry Potter!
Harry Potter and the Tree of Nothing
Today, my boyfriend and I had the worst fight of our relationship, and I’m not sure we’re going to make it. Why? Because out of all his hobbies and interests that I’ve happily joined in on, I said I had no interest in Harry Potter. FML

Today, my girlfriend donated most of my book collection because she got me a Kindle for Christmas. Some were signed, including my Harry Potters. FML

Movie night
Today, my boyfriend finally convinced me to watch Harry Potter for the first time. I was bored out of my mind the entire time, and by about an hour in, all I could think about was how badly I wanted to punch Hermione for being a rude little know it all. FML

Read and learn
Today, I had to endure my girlfriend crying and screaming at me. The reason? I'm not able to please her like the fictional character Christian Grey in 50 Shades of Grey. When she left me, she took all her stuff and left me with copies of the three books. FML

Today, my girlfriend broke up with me because she found out I share a birthday with a fictional character who is "untrustworthy" and has a "dark side", so therefore I can't be trusted either. FML

Today, my girlfriend dumped me after I told her I was learning how to start having lucid dreams. She was convinced the only reason I could possibly want to have them was so I could cheat on her in my own dreams. FML

Could've been worse OP. It could've been the Twilight series. *shudders*

Probably wasn't the main reason or only reason she dumped you

That's why you don't date 10yo geeks....

There are countless better fantasy series out there than Harry Potter. Just like there are countless better vampire/werewolf flicks than Twilight. I can't wait until these two series are a thing of the past to be quite honest. 7 and 8 year old girls should not be obsessed over a sparkly emo kid. WTF is wrong with people these days? As far as Harry potter goes, my ex wife read the books aloud to our children countless times so I have heard them all many times and was never that impressed. It's a good story and certainly infinitely classier than Twilight, it is just a story and OP is probably better off without her if that is what she values most in life.

She seems like a very reasonable woman. NOT! Be glad that twit is out of your life. Harry Potter is okay (better before everyone else liked it) but not effing important. Life is more than a J.K. Rowling (sp?) series... smh FYL

I think I've partially lost faith in all of humanity.

Let me know when humanity starts hating Harry Potter and then we'll talk about losing faith.

Obviously if she is really into it she would find it difficult to date someone who wasn't, my ex had no interest in HP and I hated it (NOT the reason we broke up). Stop calling this girl a 12 year old juvenile, some people are just very picky and would prefer to be with someone who shared their interests.

It's just about a story. There are more things to be interested in together. Besides your not suppose to be 100% like your partner, everyone is different. You need to have some different hobbies and likes.

Sorry, that's not picky. That's shallow. And it doesn't matter how old she is if she is *acting* like a 12 year old girl.
