Today, after finally finding the one after so many heartbreaks, he’s leaving me because things are actually too good. He says having me around distracts him too much from work, and spends too much time with me instead of working weekends on top of working all week. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, after 6 years of dating, 2 years of marriage, a daughter and another one on the way, my husband decided that he’s "not the one for me" and told me he was leaving for his co-worker who he’s only known for a few months. Apparently they’re more "meant to be." FML
Today, the man I love and who loves me ended our relationship. Why? Because I want to work 3 days a week, which wouldn’t conform to the traditional gender roles he envisions his future wife having. FML
Today, my boyfriend of 3 years left me because apparently I'm "too beautiful and he can no longer handle other guys always trying to flirt with me." FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me for asking to spend time with him after not seeing him very much in three months, because he doesn’t have time for me and is so stressed out he doesn’t have time for fun. Then he decided he should go to Mexico with the people he works and lives with so they could have fun together. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me, right after I turned down an amazing job opportunity in another location, just so I could be with him. FML
Today, after “talking” and flirting with my team lead for a few months, we started dating and I quit my job, which I really liked, and started working somewhere I didn’t just so we could be together. Now, two weeks after quitting, she breaks up with me. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me because I don’t have a life outside of him. I don’t have any friends other than him, nor do I have any hobbies or interests; he’s the centre of my world. Apparently this makes me too available, needy, and codependent. FML
Today, the man I've been with for ten years left me for a coworker he's known for three months. FML
Today, my boyfriend of three years who I helped through drug rehab and find employment in my office left me for someone else. His explanation was that now that his "head is not clouded with chemicals" and he "makes decent money", he wants to settle down with someone worthy of him. FML
Today, my boyfriend of nearly two years broke up with me because he's sick of me being annoyed at him. Why am I annoyed at him? Because he wants to go and spend a week with his ex. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

The bullshittiest excuse I have ever seen! He probably doesn't have balls to tell you the real reason such as "my other girlfriend is pregnant".

Sounds like you two need to work on independence within your relationship. Many people become completely codependent on their partners and that’s a recipe for toxicity. It’s good to take time apart to work towards your own goals while still maintaining and nurturing a healthy and thriving relationship.

How do you know it's BS? It could easily be a perfectly true reason, or a self confidence issue.

Or, "my wife doesn't approve."

He will be back

You sound clingy. He'd probably prefer a materialistic cold fish who will be happy to spend his money while he toils to make it. Then, you should find a nerd who never had attention from women and convince him your constant presence is "normal."

Sounds like a hardcore Capricorn lmao my man is a Capricorn but not enough to break up with me for work he’d quit his job and get a new one if I asked him to lmao

You're a bigger bullshitter than OP's ex. I'd wipe my ass with the horoscope section if newspaper wasn't a risk of blocking my toilet.

That just doesn’t ring true but I hope you come back stronger from the experience.

Sounds like you are distracting him from work... so he actually isn't the one for you if he's leaving.
