Thanks honey

Today, I was feeling really down, so I texted my boyfriend and asked him to tell me why he loves me, thinking he would cheer me up. His response? "Don't bug me with this stupid shit anymore. You always ask such dumb questions." FML

You picked the wrong boyfriend. Though, if you just texted and said "Why do you love me?" without any explanation, that would piss anyone off.

well clearly you fish for compliments all the time

obviously you don't know men well enough. little advice tip, don't ever ask a man if and why he loves you because you just insult him. in a man's eye those questions are a direct insult because it comes across as a woman not taking notice of the times he displays his affection for the woman he loves, whether it be physical, emotional, or verbal. so just for the future keep that in mind and think back to things he's said or done and you should be ok so long ass your bf is a complete asshole and can't think of anything. then that's a whole new topic all together.

No wonder he responded like that if you continually play these mind games with him. Sounds like you need to learn some confidence instead of relying on other people to boost your spirits. YDI for beating around the bush instead of having an open talk with him.

Well it is a stupid question. YDI for being a whiny, naggy, annoying bitch.

YDI. Stop trying to fish for attention. It's stupid when people use their sadness as a means for attention.

If you dump him it will be he that is better off for it. Stop fishing for compliments and just say that you are feeling down. Not only that, but what if he answered the question with something you didn't like? Then you'd be bitching about that. There was no way this would have ended well. YDI

#144- Did you read the FML? Why would she ask him that if he has not told her that he loves her? What is presumptuous is assuming that she is insecure and clingy. There is no evidence of that at all. I have asked my boyfriend this, probably 2 or 3 times throughout our year and a half long relationship. I do it because I want to better understand what particular personality traits he finds most admirable and attractive in a significant other. Compliments are so often physical based, unless you ask, it can be difficult to understand what someone finds most valuable in you on a more significant level. I'm going to take the high road and give the OP the benefit of the doubt and say that she probably just wanted to distract herself from her bad day. Her relationship makes her happy, so it would be natural to turn to that to feel a positive connection. Regardless of anything, the way that the boyfriend reacted was way out of line. You don't speak like that to people you respect and care about. He was an ass.

Shut up guys. If the girls depressed, he should be more supportive and simply say how he wishes she didn't ask that question bc she should already know. How hard is it to say that? You guys are dicks for saying she's annoying and emo. There's less rude ways to handle a relationship.
