Today, I was coming home from a date, I saw my ex standing in my drive-way. He had dumped me 2 months ago saying he couldn't talk me. To make him jealous, I made out with my new guy before greeting him. Turns out he couldn't talk to me because he had had cancer and had been afraid to tell me. 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

Today, after several years spent hung up on my ex, I was finally moving on. I was on a date with my new boyfriend when my ex walked past us. He broke down crying, got on his knees, and begged me to come back. FML

Today, I went to meet a guy that i had already started to be involved with at a bar. We laughed, kissed and had a great time, until he admitted he was just doing all of this to make his ex-girlfriend jealous. Guess who was waiting for me outside. FML

Devious

Today, I was invited out to a date by my ex-boyfriend. He seemed really excited to reconnect and kept holding my hand and complimenting how I looked. Out of nowhere a girl runs up to him screaming. It was his current girlfriend, he was using me to make her jealous. FML

Today, I was hanging out with my ex's new girlfriend. I found out he was dating us both at the same time and was comparing between us. That is why he broke up with me two years ago and is still with her ever since. FML

Today, I went on a date with a guy I've been talking to. We ended up at his house around 4 a.m., but as we walked through the front door, his ex-girlfriend was sitting on the couch, apparently waiting for him to get home. They still live together. FML

Creep

By fu2then - 09/03/2010 06:04 - Canada

Today, I ran into my manipulative ex-boyfriend at a party. We were chatting and I mentioned that the guys I have been seeing lately all turn out to be jerks. He said, "Yeah well, you dumped me and don't deserve to be happy." Apparently he has been creeping and scaring off any guys interested in me. FML

Wow you people need to calm the **** down and stop ragging on her. It's not her fault if her ex didn't tell her he had cancer. She knew nothing.

What you did is understandable because you didn't know. You don't deserve it, but it's not FYL. FHL! He's the one with cancer, and he's the one who saw you make out with the new guy and probably felt really uncomfortable and upset. I would bet that he still likes/loves you, too. This is really sad...

At least he came to explain his actions, now it is time for you to explain the reasoning behind yours. I hope that all works out between the two of you and that his treatments are successful in getting rid of the cancer. Best of luck! :)

I said YDI for trying to make one guy jealous of another by using one, but FYL about the whole Cancer part. You're not a Mind-reader! Oh, and I love how the comments show the exact opposite of what the votes say (FYL vs. YDI) P.S. If people keep replying to the first comment in anything other than an Actual reply to that individual comment (because they want their comment to be on top) I'm going to start thumbing them down.
