Love: Today, I bought something special at Victoria's Secret, then...

By singleladynow - 20/01/2011 05:04 - United States

Today, I bought something special at Victoria's Secret, then sat in bumper-to-bumper traffic for 2 hours to get to my boyfriend's house. When I got there, he broke up with me. We're 37 years old and he actually gave me the "it's not you, it's me" speech. FML

Today, my boyfriend gave me a $100 gift card for Victoria's Secret. Suspicious, I checked the receipt he'd left in the bag. Turns out he had bought it during the 2 weeks we were broken up for some other girl who rejected him, so decided to give it to me instead. 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

I didn't realize there was an age limit on when you could use the "it's not you, it's me" speech. "Because my mom doesn't like you" shouldn't be used past age 18, but "it's not you, it's me" is timeless.

I would rather hear that it isn't me than that it is completely my fault.

"Your"

Now, mistaking 'your' for 'you're' is common. What you've done is on a whole new level.

I think she put 'you're' because grammar Nazis pick on the misspelling of it the most. The grammar/spelling/punctuation Nazis have put fear into us all, so think about easing up a little, because most of the people have decent grammar/spelling/punctuation when they are not taking a leisurely break on FML. so *** ogf biatchhss(:

FYI I am sick, on medication so I feel "off". My phone "auto-corrects" me. Oh and he isn't worth it because anyone who uses the whole "it's me, not you" speech usually just wants to be single and can't think of anything better to say. GrAmMuh NaZeEs suK onn Thissssssssss
