Today, my girlfriend of five years broke up with me, saying I've changed and she can't be with someone who's so emotional all the time. Well I'm so sorry that after two weeks, I'm not quite over my brother's death yet. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me. She told me that her father didn't approve of me and forced her out of the relationship. Her father died 2 years ago. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me over something that happened 5 years ago. We've only been together for 2 years as of this July. FML
Today, my girlfriend of six months broke up with me. In her words, “Liking you fucked up my brain.” Later that afternoon, she posted a story of her with another dude’s arm around her. FML
Today, my boyfriend of six years broke up with me over video chat. Two days before I was to move across the country to be with him. All of my things are already shipped. He said he thinks of me as a sister. FML
Today, my boyfriend of two years broke up with me. Why? He said his mom didn't want us together anymore. His mom died three years ago. FML
Today, my girlfriend met my brother who, despite being 10 years older, is taller, smarter, slimmer, richer, more handsome, and just objectively better in every way. He always has been. An hour ago, she broke up with me. Meeting my brother convinced her she'd settled for me and could do better with almost anyone else. FML
Today, my sister's boyfriend of over a year broke up with her. As her brother, I instinctively wanted to beat him up, but he is too much of nice guy for me to be able to hurt him. FML
Today, my brother's life was ripped apart. His wife has chosen to no longer be his wife and is trying to keep his dog as well. My brother has always been proud of his family and hopeful for the future. He will spring back, but this came out of left field. 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, my girlfriend of three and half years broke up with me, just after I'd finished fixing up her house, which took me about three and a half years. FML

Are you kidding me!? After my sister passed away I took a month and a half off work!! What a selfish girl. Maybe you're better off without her... So sorry for your loss. Condolences.

What work place gives a month and a half of bereavement leave?!

#48 you can take a leave of absence from work for personal reasons for up to 12 weeks as long as you meet the requirements. She probably wasn't paid, unless she used her own sick/vacation time.

#48 She could have been close with her boss, my mom's bf was able to take time off to support our family when we loss our grandmother, even though he was of no relation to her. Many work places are flexible, it honestly depends on the job and the dynamic between you and your boss.

His brother just died he's allowed to be as whiney as he wants. OP so sorry for your loss. Your ex is heartless and you deserve way better than her.

So sorry for your loss OP! It's hard for people to understand loss and grief when they haven't experienced it themselves!

sorry for your loss OP :( if she can't support you during this hardship, she isn't worth it. Hopefully you find someone worthy of you

She sounds like a sociopath. Be happy to be rid of her.

Very sorry :(

wow, she's pretty self-absorbed to think you're suppose to mourn on a time limit and then get back to her. quality over quantity, 5 years mean nothing when her personality is like that.

That totally sucks man, I could not even imagine losing my sibling, I hope that as time progresses you remember the good things about your brother and keep him in your heart
