Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was video chatting my boyfriend. As we were talking, he answered a phone call. I sat there the whole time as he planned a date with some other girl over the phone. FML
Today, I canceled all my plans because my boyfriend wanted to go on a date. He didn't mean with me. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me. He said it was because his online gaming friends don't like it when I ask him to spend time with me. FML
Today, my boyfriend stood me up. At dinner with his parents. FML

Today, I tried to talk to my boyfriend about our communication problems. He fell asleep. FML
Today, I had a movie date planned with a guy. After a polite exchange, we were interrupted by a phone call from his colleague saying they had an emergency that needed his attention. He excused himself to take the call, telling me he wouldn't be long. He drove off and blocked my number the moment he stepped out. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I broke up. He said it was because he wanted to 'do his own thing'. So gaming 24/7 like he has for the past two years of our relationship, then. FML
Today, I decided to give my boyfriend one last chance at fixing our failing relationship. Instead of talking about how to fix our dying relationship, he decided to game all day and ignore me. FML
Today, I went on a date I was really enjoying. My ex-boyfriend called halfway through. When I answered, he told me he wanted to get back together and couldn’t stop thinking about me. I didn’t realize my phone was on speaker. My date heard everything. FML

Sounds like you and your boyfriend have your own old-school discord going on.

This could be one of two things, either boyfriend was not interested in this particular activity or boyfriend is losing interest in OP. The first is actually the more likely - Very few couples both enjoy all the same activities. Real people have to compromise and either pick an activity that both enjoy or alternate turns with one picking an activity they enjoy or sometimes doing things alone or with friends. All of these are reasonable options for avoiding disappointment and hurt feelings.

The bigger issue is that he interrupted her during the conversation to go back to what he was doing with his friends. People can say "Nah I don't really like that." But they'd also make plans for something different. OP, if this is new behavior, have a nice chat together about effort towards your relationship. If not, you've chosen to live with this attitude for two years and you're putting up with something that should have been addressed during one of the first times it happened.

I hope he's an ex-boyfriend by now.
