Today, my girlfriend dumped me because I've recently become serious about getting fit, and have lost nearly 84 pounds. Apparently, when I was fat, I made her look smaller in comparison. When I got slimmer, she insisted I either gain the weight back or she'd leave. So she did. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my girlfriend of 5 years dumped me because she got tired of me being thinner than her and, in her own words, making her look bad. FML
Today, after supporting my girlfriend for over a year in her endeavour to lose weight, exercise more, and eat better, my now-slender girlfriend dumped me, because she's found someone "better" than me. FML
Today, my girlfriend had a huge fight with me because while I'm trying to gain weight and she’s trying to lose some, I’ve still lost more weight than her. Not my fault my body’s natural preference is to drop pounds like they’re hot. FML
Today, after my ex helped me drop over a hundred pounds, I broke up with him because I looked and felt so much better, and knew I could do better. Turns out he was the only thing keeping me slim, as I've put back on over twenty pounds. I asked him to take me back and he told me to fuck off. FML
Today, I officially completed my weight loss journey, only for my wife, who'd previously threatened to divorce me if I didn't lose weight, to tell me that she realized she liked me better when I was fat and that "you don't know what you have until it's gone." FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me because I'm now about 15 pounds overweight. When I called him a hypocrite as he's over 40 pounds overweight, he said that his weight didn't matter because "it's the girl's job to look hot." FML
Today, I proudly informed my boyfriend that I am now a size 4, down from an 18, after months of dieting and exercising after he told me he would like me to be a size 6. He broke up with me for "not listening to what he wanted" and "being an overachiever". FML
Today, my boyfriend of 5 years dumped me, after he intentionally made me fat so that I wouldn't leave him. FML
Today, and since we met, my girlfriend has forced me to change my hair, clothing and jewellery, and my diet. She has changed basically everything about me. Then this morning she dumped me because I'm "not the guy she fell in love with a year ago". I'm not even upset because its too funny. FML
Today, my ex is bad-mouthing me, saying I dumped her because she got fat. That’s not true. I left because she completely gave up on life, no matter how much I tried to help. Not only did I get her gym membership, I even paid out of pocket for a mental health professional. That’s not cheap. FML

she did you a favor. Can't imagine the relationship would have been great anyway with her personality

Look, if she was only with you to feel better about herself, it's much better this way.

How much did she weigh? Add that to your weight loss and feel good about it.

Well good. You don't deserve someone that's out to ruin your happiness. You'll find someone better. Congrats on the weight loss. Both her and literally. :p

Who in their right mind would tell their significant other to be unhealthy and gain a bunch of weight? Who in their right mind would tell their significant other "you're more attractive than me. I want you to be less attractive than me because I'm jealous. So instead of using your health success as a support system to start my own journey, I'm going to degrade you and try to get you to let yourself go so I won't have to get off the couch". **** THAT. I picked "you're life sucks", but it really. REALLY. Doesn't. Good for you for getting healthy AND losing that drag down of a girlfriend.

No need to cry over that one. That's what you call *shallow* and *insecure*. Congrats on the weight loss bud.

I'd love a partner to work out with and give each other encouragement !!! Maybe you'll find someone at the gym! Luck, OP!!!

I know it probably hurts right now, but you'll get through this. That was a very shallow and selfish thing for her to do, and you don't need that kind of shit in your life. You'll be fine, and hopefully find someone who supports you more. Congratulations on your weight loss!
