Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my boyfriend of a over a year broke up with me. It wouldn't have been so bad if I hadn't written him a long letter about how much I love him, and that I'm so glad we're together and so glad that he promised he would always be there. He'll be getting it in a few days. FML
Today, I was making out with my boyfriend. When we took a break and went downstairs, he checked the mail. He had received a letter from his ex-girlfriend, which he opened in front of me. He then began sobbing on my shoulder and broke up with me. He still had to drive me home. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me by rapping in a voicemail. FML
Today, I got a postcard from my boyfriend who is on vacation in the Caribbean. He's breaking up with me. FML
Today, I broke up with my boyfriend whom I love dearly because he doesn't share his feelings and won't commit. Yesterday, he wrote me a long love letter telling me he wanted to marry me. One of my kids had shoved it under my printer and I didn't find it until after he had moved out. FML
Today, my boyfriend of seven and a half years broke up with me. By text message. FML
Today, I flew 8 hours to visit my boyfriend. When I arrived at the airport, and he started taking long to show up, I checked my email to see the info. I hit the junk mail by accident and found his last 10 emails in there. He had broken up with me a week ago. FML
Today, my boyfriend of two years sent me a text message saying, "Don't worry I'm gonna break up with her soon. Love you." FML
Today, my boyfriend of 3 months decided to end our long-distance relationship out of the blue, because he "lost interest" and "our families don't approve" and "you deserve better than me" and "I'm holding you back." He took my heart and shattered against the wall. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me by covering my car with post-it notes that read "it's you not me." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

That's awful, and very unfortunate. I can't help but wonder if anything at all would've changed if it had been sent by email...

My guess is OP didn't have Internet connection. That's why long distance relationships almost never work out. Things like black-outs can keep you from talking to your partner for months.

It's a love letter. I mean, aren't love letters supposed to be romantic? So, of course she sent a letter, it's a lot nicer than receiving an email.

Call me new-fashioned, but I think it's the words and feelings that count, so I would have no problem telling my partner how I feel for her by email, if it was in a long distance relationship. And yes hand-written is romantic, I agree, but if I had the option, talking with my loved-one in quasi-realtime would be a lot more enjoyable for me, given that we would be far apart.

27 - If OP doesn't have internet how are they on FML?

#27: Blackouts usually only last a few hours, or maybe a couple days in extreme situations..

Who sends a long love letter by e-mail? You? How very unromantic.

50- her now ex may not have internet although she has it.

I can't help but to laugh. Blaming the fail of a relationship on a "black-out" is just hilarious. Cause it probably has nothing to do with the fact that it is, in fact, a long distance relationship, and people do break up when you can't see your loved ones at all. Or people find out that your "cyber-love" isn't really as awesome as they seemed and they will break up. Just blaming it on a "black-out" or bad internet connection is too funny to me.

Long Distance Relationships can be hard and straining at times, not seeing your loved one can make you "lose" your love with them. I hope that letter changes his mind :)

But how do you know that was the reason he broke up with her?

I feel for you OP. I did the same thing but through email. I cringe every single time I think about it. Sorry.

I'm sorry, OP. If it was meant to be, it will happen. Maybe the letter is just what he needs. Keep your head up. Long distance relationships are so hard!

Hey, it might turn things around ;). Don't worry I was in an LDR for 3 years, I know how difficult it is. Hang in there

I don't mean to be a Debbie Downer... But this is an unoriginal FML

Why don't you try to submit an FML and see if it's "original" enough to get posted
Zambowi 15
I mean in the sense a very similar one has been posted before. No need for the snark :P
winkydog4056 16
#7 Soooooo many of them are.....I'm guessing to really get 'original' one would need to start using their imagination. Only so much happens in that thing called reality. Try moderating & see the crap tha

A handwritten letter takes a lot time and effort than an e-mail. It's far more personal to use a pen and piece of paper than to sit in front of a keyboard and stare at a screen.

What's more romantic?: A letter) "Oh darling, over the past few fortnights I have missed you so, ......" A text) "miss u"

Be glad it's just a super long love letter instead of a super long sextape of yourself.
