Today, I carpooled with my co-worker whose girlfriend has left him. The radio was playing the song "Jar of Hearts." He then began to sing intensely, and broke down crying. FML

I miss you

Today, I was with my boyfriend and we were in his car when he burst out crying, I thought it might have been because we had gotten into a huge fight and he felt bad. No, he cried on my shoulder for a half hour because he misses his ex-girlfriend. He's been writing songs about wanting her back. FML

Emotional journey

Today, my love life is so godawful that I started ugly-crying when the song "Love Hurts" began playing on the radio while I was driving. I had to pull over. Several people passing by stopped to see if I needed help. FML

Today, I poured my heart out to my girlfriend with a serenade. After I finished, she told me she'd come over to tell me she'd found someone else and wanted to break up. FML

Scene from a movie

Today, I'm crying in an Uber because my significant other just broke up with me. I'm crying quietly but there's no way the driver hasn't noticed at this point. I'm OK with him not saying anything, but he also hasn't changed the music. All that's playing is Pink, and not the loud, girl-power songs, but the sad, slow ones about love. FML

You got mail

By Awkwardly_dumped - 21/08/2018 14:30

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

Today, after an argument with my pianist girlfriend about how bad my favourite song would sound on the piano, she stormed out of the room crying, leaving behind a CD. It was the piano version of the song she'd made for me. FML

Today, my boyfriend wrote a song for me. As he was singing it to me I realized it was actually a breakup song. FML

Today, my boyfriend broke up with me in the parking lot right before a baseball game, then convinced me to still go to the game in tears. After the game, we were walking back to the car and he goes, "so, how about some break up lovin'?" FML

Today, I told my dad that I broke up with my first serious girlfriend. He responded by blaring sad breakup songs as loud as he could throughout the house, just to see me "cry like a bitch". FML

Newsflash: MEN HAVE FEELINGS. You're an insensitive ass. No but seriously, that song sucks.

Shoulda given him a sweet and spicy backhand to the facial area, then kissed him gently. He'd be too confused to cry.

Wow yeah I can see how awful it would be to watch someone else go through a sad break up. In case you didn't catch that sarcasm-though I was laying it on pretty thick-I don't feel bad for you!!

Well, there are two possible scenairos here: 1. He was singing that suck ass song, realized he knew all the words and that caused him to break down and cry coming to the full realization that he is hopeless. 2. He was in a deep depression over losing his girlfriend and the song pushed it over the edge. IF.....it is scenairo number 1. Never invite him into your automobile again wihtout a CLEAR understanding that there is to be no singing, no crying, no Jar of Hearts. IF....it is scenairo number 2. Be a friend and give him a shoulder to lean on. You never know, you might need the same one day

Awkward situation. But seriously you should have tried to comfort him.

I really hope he wasn't the one driving. Otherwise, if you were driving and he didn't have his belt on you could have slammed on the brakes. That would have stopped him. Otherwise a dry (well slightly moist if you count the tears) slap to the upside of his head should have done the trick.
