Cats and Love: The GOAT

The GOAT

By stunned - 15/03/2010 15:27 - United States

Today, my boyfriend of almost a year and a half broke up with me when he decided he wasn't in love with me anymore. We gave our stuff back, he was joking and happy the whole time until I told him I was taking back my cat. At that point he burst into tears. FML

Today, my boyfriend and I broke up, and he came by to get his things while I was at work. When I got home I saw that the only thing he had taken was my cat. I only dated him for 5 months, I've had that cat for 14 years. FML

Today, my boyfriend broke up with me. As I was leaving his house, I heard him shout, "Hey! Wait! Sweetie, get back here!" He was talking to his cat who'd run out the door behind me. FML

Today, I broke up with my boyfriend. I had only been dating him for about a month. Thinking he wouldn't take it very hard, I invited him over so I could tell him in person. Little did I know he was going to start crying on my couch and not leave for 5 hours. FML

Make your mind up

Today, my boyfriend of over a year broke up with me. Completely crushed, I spent an hour gathering up everything he ever gave me. Then he calls back to say how stupid he was and how he wanted me back. I was ecstatic. An hour later he figured out he was okay with his first decision. FML

Today, my boyfriend became convinced that I cheated on him, and broke up with me, saying he would "get me back." When I came home, I found his key on my counter and my cat missing. 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, exactly two years to the date when I thought my dream had came true when my partner surprised me with a kitten. Except two weeks later we had to give him away because my partner was too anxious about the cat destroying any of his stuff. I'm still heartbroken. FML

You got mail

Today, I was making out with my boyfriend. When we took a break and went downstairs, he checked the mail. He had received a letter from his ex-girlfriend, which he opened in front of me. He then began sobbing on my shoulder and broke up with me. He still had to drive me home. FML

Well, he broke up with you, not the cat. You don't often hear of people 'breaking up' with pets. Is your cat a boy or girl, OP? Cause if it's a girl, it probably likes him more. Girl cats are ****** like that.

Silver lining: taking the cat back is the ultimate revenge for him breaking up with you. Breaking his game console might work as well.

Your bf sounds like a wimp if he started crying right away without some sort of argument

So maybe I'm reading this wrong... but you said you GAVE it to him. People don't usually give their own pets away as gifts, so I'm assuming this was a kitten you bought for him. That means that cat was his the entire time and never really belonged to you. Then when you guys decide to break up, you decide to steal his pet? Yes... you paid for it. But it doesn't sound like it's yours to take at this point.

She didn't say she GAVE it to him. It's more likely that they had been living together for a while, and he thought for some reason that he would get to keep the cat. I'd say she's perfectly justified in taking the cat with her.

#77 Were you born a moron or did this happen over time?? It's HER CAT, as she said in the FML!! Some wanker living with her for a bit then deciding to leave and expecting he gets to keep HER pet does NOT qualify as her "gifting him the cat"!!
