Today, after a hard day's work and emotional argument with my best friend, I sent my boyfriend a text telling him how much I loved him and cherished him in the hopes he would cheer me up with a romantic reply. He said "Sorry, I've only got 8 texts left." FML

In his defense, texts are like gold when they're limited

Wait...did he text you to tell you he only had 8 texts left?? Because if that's the case why couldn't he have just used that opportunity to cheer you up instead.

that's just messed up...he could have used that ONE text he sent to send you a nice romantic cheerful and encouraging text. damnit!

Why would he text you to say he was about to run out of texts?

Either way, the guy's an idiot. What he should have done is simple. He should have texted back something romantic to cheer her up, and then said, "By the way, I only have 8 texts left so please don't respond." Or something along those lines. He is a douche.

it's kind of silly that you wrote all of that in a text message... but the fact that all he had to reply to that, was his lack of text messages, which actually rids him of another "precious" text message... well, i find that completely jerk. he should have called you, in that case.

even my mom says that you should get rid of that jerk, because he's not a keeper. :)!

to everyone saying he was worried she'd continue the conversation: he couldn't just say "i love you too, but i'm sorry i have to stop texting"? that's far under 160 characters.

when someone has the chance to be "romantic" and doesn't, that doesn't mean they're a bad person, it just means they're not a "romantic" person. That's just like saying you're a bad person for not giving a poor person money (hypathetically), because u made the choice not to donate money does not make u a bad person, but giving him money would make u a good person. See where i'm going? just because someone has the opportunity to be a good person doesn't mean if they don't take it they're a bad person.

Yeah, I don't see why we needed to hear about this. I get 500 non-Verizon texts a month and when this one girl texts me, she never stops. I had 3000 texts last month. I now owe my mom $250 and I tell her every time she texts to stop because I STILL haven't paid off her last bout of verbal diarrhea. It gets really damn expensive when people don't know how to stop talking

couldn't he have just used that one?
