Today, my girlfriend had a complete breakdown. I was trying to calm her down and reassure her that she will accomplish all of her dreams. Her response: "Then why am I even with you?" FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me. As everything was ending, I tried to save the relationship by telling her how much I cared about her. Her response? "Please stop. You're gonna make me feel bad." FML
Today, I decided to break up with my girlfriend. I sat her down and gave her the speech. She broke down in tears and said, “Why does every guy always abandon me? Why am I never good enough?” I felt so bad for her that I took back the breakup and we’re still together now. FML
Today, I told to my girlfriend of 5 years that I'm depressed about having no friends, no job and a difficult family life. I told her that she's the one constant that keeps me going. She decided this was a good time to break up with me to "find" herself, since I was being so mopey. FML
Today, I broke up with my girlfriend. She responded by sitting on the floor, crying like a baby and screaming "WHY?" at strangers. FML

Today, my girlfriend broke up with me because "we don't communicate enough". She got her friend to tell me this for her. FML
Today, I went to see my girlfriend to talk about my anxiety, because it's been a big issue. She broke up with me instead. FML
Today, I was diagnosed with depression. My girlfriend's idea of consoling me was to break up with me because she can't date a "psycho". FML

Harsh, maybe she didn't mean to say it?

Naw, I'm so sorry OP, you sound like a great boyfriend. I hope she was just joking, otherwise there are plenty of more people in the sea.

People... in the sea?

Yeah. Sailors get awfully lonely, you know.

What I think she meant was that if her dreams would come true she would be with a celebrity

I have a problem with that. I just don't think you say something like that to someone you love. I hope she apologized, quickly and sincerely and didn't use her emotions as an excuse.

Which means her thoughts were unfiltered. I hate the saying "I hope she's your ex"... But if she's thinking that, she apparently "settled" for you. Find someone worth your time.

lol gotta love it, if it was the other way around you'd be saying "leave that sorry excuse of a bf"

So she just get a free pass to say whatever she wants? I don't think so..

I think when you are in that kind of state. the filter between brain and mouth won't be working. she was probably being more honest about her feelings that she otherwise normally would have been.

I agree that your emotions can be unfiltered but I also think they can be blown out of proportion when you're already in such an emotional state. Small problems can feel huge.

Some people prefer more practical advice to whatever their problem is, rather than just a "oh it will all work somehow".

Ask yourself the same question.

If your not part of her dreams I would reevaluate your relationship status.

Well in the short run I would wait a day or 2 till she has her head together, then have a serious talk about where your relationship is headed with a comment like that.

If you're not part of her dreams, she needs to wake the hell up.

From your username, OP, I take it that you made at least one of her dreams come true ...
ragnarok1540 39
My mistake. I misread the OP's name as "still over her" instead of "still love her" ... Feel free to bury this comment while I bury my head in shame :(
