Today, my boyfriend broke up with me, and my heart is shattered to pieces. The worst part is we are supposed to go on vacation together in a week, and neither of us is backing out, or giving the other the room, so it looks like we’ll be staying together on vacation for 11 days straight. FML

Narcissism in a nutshell

Today, my boyfriend's family offered me the trip of a lifetime visiting their families overseas. My mother threw a tantrum, telling me that it was my fault that she was never able to travel, it was my fault that she got pregnant with me and had to marry my abusive father. FML

it's annoying that people think the OP is a tramp just because she left her ex for another guy. people change. people grow up. people meet other people. maybe she found someone she had a better connection with. there's no sense in staying with someone just for the sake of staying with them; if you suspect you'll be happier with someone else, go for it. don't cheat on your SO, but also don't cheat yourself.

have any of you thought that maybe it's neither of their faults? sometimes relationships just don't work. and just because she left him for someone else does NOT mean she cheated on him. she could have just fallen in love with someone else. things happen and she probably feels bad enough about it. what is it any of your businesses about it? i'm sure all of you have done things in your life that you feel bad about and things that may have hurt someone else. nobody's perfect.

I want to be like, "Hey, maybe there was a reason she left him for someone else. Maybe he was a jerk and she found someone who treated her well." And then I thought, "Well, if that were the case, she would have mentioned it in the fml..." So I'm going to say YDI on this one due to the fact that you left him for someone else. Unless you discovered you're a lesbian that's just shitty. Seriously, if the relationship is bad just freaking end it, don't wait until there's someone else, it makes you look like a cheating ****. Although, due to the 'really bad break-up' part, it sounds like maybe he didn't think it was going so poorly.
