Today, I finally summed up the courage to break up with my abusively controlling girlfriend. I don't know what I was thinking, but instead of leaving as a free man, I left as an engaged one. FML

Today, I finally got the courage to leave my controlling and manipulative ex. He took it well. And by "took it well", I mean he camped out my doorstep, held some of my belongings hostage, and tried to blackmail me into staying with him. FML

Today, my girlfriend confessed that she was scared that she was more in love with me than I was in her, and that she was afraid I would leave her. So she left me instead. I'd been thinking about proposing. FML

Wrong end of the stick

Today, I went to my girlfriend's house to break up with her. It was a hard decision and both of us became quite emotionally overwhelmed at the time. We began to hug as a final goodbye, then her mum burst in the room and yelled, "HE FINALLY PROPOSED!" FML

Today, after weeks of my crazy girlfriend avoiding me because she knew I wanted to break up with her, I had no option but to do it by text. She told all my friends, who now think I'm a coward who isn't man enough to break up in person. They didn't even ask for my side of the story. FML

Today, after weeks of doubt and pondering the pros and cons, I finally broke up with my girlfriend, and she burst into tears. Feeling guilty, I tried to console her by saying, "Don't worry, we can still be cousins." FML

Today, I finally worked up the courage to break up with my boyfriend. His parents weren't able to pick him up for 5 hours. I ended up taking him to a movie to kill time and end on a positive note, but now he thinks we're cool and back on track. FML

Buy rohyphnol. Give it to her. When she is asleep, pack. When you are packed, put more down her throat. Leave. Go at least 4 states away and legally change your name.

How are there fifty more ydi's than ylf? Have we learned nothing? Humans as a species are manipulative. We find ways to get what we want. Abuse happens because one human wants to have power over another. Women can be just as power-hungry as any man. Abuse is not a woman's problem

You live in Italy, so take her on a tour of the Vatican, and as you pass by the Swiss Guard, point to her and shout "She's a Witch!" Given that this is the age of guns and the Swiss guard still use Pole-arms to defend the pope, there's a good chance that they'd be weak-willed enough to fall for it and they'd kill her on the spot.
