Today, my boyfriend dumped me for knowing more about Batman than he does. He's only seen some of the movies, and as a kid my dad owned a comic book store. He still doesn't see why I should know more, because I'm a girl, and "girls aren't supposed to know about superheroes." FML

Today, my boyfriend broke up with me, because apparently I need to "grow up". He's the one who excessively plays Call of Duty and still has Pokémon and Bionicles in his room. FML

Today, my boyfriend called me and I told him about the AnimeCon I'm attending, and that I wanted to go as Sailor Mars, he told me he had no idea what that was. After being mad for about ten minutes, I realized that I wanted to break up with him over not knowing what Sailor Moon was. FML

Today, my boyfriend broke up with me, because he thought he heard another guy in the room when he called me, and that I'm cheating on him. The guy he heard was a character from a cartoon my sister was watching. FML

Today, my boyfriend had a tantrum because I didn't like Black Sabbath as much as him. Apparently our entire relationship was based on him thinking I did. I've now been labeled "The Queen of Lies." FML

Today, my girlfriend broke up with me because she found out I share a birthday with a fictional character who is "untrustworthy" and has a "dark side", so therefore I can't be trusted either. FML

Today, my boyfriend dumped me and walked away from our life together, because I wouldn’t let him indulge his stupid manchild hobby of collecting swords to hang on the walls. He already has two, why the hell would he want more than that? Bullet dodged, but 2 years together wasted. FML

Today, I was dumped. My boyfriend was too afraid to break up with me, so he sent the girl he cheated on me with. FML

Dodged a bullet OP. Plenty of guys who'd kill for a girl like you.

this guy seemed too idiotic for you anyways. a girl the grew up in a comic shop sounds awesome (jealous) and you should find someone who can see how cool you are. I'm sure that won't actually be too hard.

I gave you a "YDI", not because you actually deserved what he did, but because you deserve better than a moron like that.

As an avid Batman/comic/superhero fan, I just want to say that if I had a girlfriend who knew as much about those things as me (or even more than me), I would find that incredibly hot and interesting and awesome. Your ex dumping you is his loss, because he clearly doesn't appreciate others who can help him pursue his interests further, which is more backwards than almost anything I can think of. Hopefully you'll find someone better and not have to deal with such immature, backwards-logic behavior.
