Today, the girl I have been dating for the past couple months broke it off with me. She said she's tired of waiting around for me and being ignored in the mean time. I'm sorry, I shouldn't have been so greedy as to finish my 2 degrees and work 2 jobs to pay for my school. How selfish of me. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my girlfriend left me at 11pm after leading me on for 5 months, all because she lost interest. I wasted so much time, money, and emotions on her, and never received them from her. FML
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me, because I was apparently "too good" for her. FML
Today, my girlfriend of two years broke up with me. It was our anniversary just 3 nights ago, and she said she was sorry for leading me on. She still hasn’t told me why. FML
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me because I was unsuccessful at a job interview, and she didn't want to be with someone who "has no future". She's unemployed too. FML
Today, my girlfriend of 8 months and I broke up. We decided to give back everything we ever bought for each other. I gave her the stuff she bought me and when I asked for my stuff she said she'd sold it and spent the money on herself. FML
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me because she believes I "jinxed" her chances of getting the job she wanted. FML
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me for being "too clingy". I haven't seen her in over 3 weeks and texted her first once. Guess that's still too much for her. FML
Today, I found out the girl I was in love with has a new boyfriend. I blame myself because I believed her when she said she "wasn't ready" for a relationship. FML
Today, I got broken up with, after renovating her family's apartment over the last 9 months. She even waited until I'd hung the last lights, whose shipment was delayed. FML
Today, I finished hauling all of my possessions from another state, because I was supposed to move in with my girlfriend. I was just waiting to find a job. Almost as soon as my stuff was delivered, she broke up with me and told me to figure out getting it all back by myself. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

it's for the better, you have no time for a relationship anyway. soooo.... why even start one if you are going to be nonexistant? two jobs and college, that gotta suck.

I guess this is when I say you shouldn't get involved in a relationship when you know you aren't going to have time for the person, communication and spending time with one another is kind of a big part on making things work.. not be there when I have time for you. Congrats on your degrees and all, but I can only hope this is a lesson learned kind of thing..

seriously, you are selfish. you expected her to revolve around you. who wants to be an 'option' when the other expects to be a 'priority'? I'm glad you're going for two degrees and that you have a job to keep you afloat. Clearly, you have no time for a relationship. stop being so spiteful. wake up and smell the coffee. you're a selfish person.

A teacher stood in front of his class with an empty beaker. "This beaker is like your life. You can fill it with various responsibilities and activities; school, work, sports,..." As he listed each thing, he dropped a stone in the beaker. "Now it seems like your life is full," he said as he raised the beaker full of stones, "but think of your relationships, family, spouse, etc, as this pile of sand." As he spoke, he poured the sand into the beaker. "There's always room for relationships in your life, no matter how busy you are with other stuff". After he was done, a student came over and poured his beer into the beaker, shouting "There's also always room for beer!"

Two undergraduate degrees ? If so, YDI for making poor choices.

You were doing things for your benefit, not hers. Seems like the pot calling the kettle black to me.

I dunno, I understand both points of view here. Your gf shouldn't have accused you of ignoring her, but with such a busy lifestyle perhaps you should have realised you didn't have time for a gf? If you're going to have a girlfriend you have to spend time with her. XScarlet was right when (s)he said "It isn't selfish of you to be working towards your goals, however it is selfish of you to expect a girl to date you and be ok with getting ignored or waiting around for you".

yes selfish for thinking you could have it all, don't have a girlfriend if you don't have time for one.

Why would you start a relationship when you don't even have time for her? Is it really that hard to take 10 minutes out of your break to talk to her? Also..even if you can't talk to her, send her texts. You guys only dated for a couple of months, did you really expect her to remain with you and continue being ignored? If you can do this to her now..imagine when you do get a job...this situation may occur again.

disagree! start a relationship, after 6 months when things get monotone, find a job. by then, she'll be more involved emotionally, not to mention tired of supporting ur ass.
