Today, it was my birthday. My boyfriend made me breakfast in bed, then we went out shopping, had a picnic, watched a good romcom, had a fancy dinner, and ended the day with great sex. And when the clock struck twelve, he dumped me. FML

Oh that sucks OP. Happy birthday! On one hand he at least made it a happy ending... but I still think it's messed up to pretend like everything is great when it's not. I'm sorry OP

Yes and no. I agree he made it a good day. And it was thoughtful to not dump her on her actual birthday. On the other hand, I personally will feel crushed from being dumped if I don't see it coming. Usually break ups happen after some thought. I think OP is more hurt that she didn't expect it.

That was a terrible thing to have happen, however as previously stated, that's about as nice as it could be done. Sorry, OP

I kinda want to give him props for not dumping you on your birthday. Also he made it a kick ass day before he dumped you.

The dick move here is not telling OP about your feeling or displeasures. It might seem nice to finish on a high but how can OP trust anybody in the future if you pull such a charade of making it seem like everything is fine when you knew it was not. If you have a problem with your partner you talk about it and try to work it out or decide to split. You do not plan a nice day just to brake-up with someone after that. It is better to be painful before the birthday then deceitful just after the day. Pain heals faster then trust.

I agree. I think he should've done it before her birthday. Even the day before wouldn't have been so bad as pretending everything's fine during and breaking up that night. Personally, I don't think it's right to pretend or to lead someone one (holiday/birthday or not). I feel like once you've decided to break up with someone one, you do it as soon as you see them next.

At least he made your day special. I've never had such a romantic day and probably never will.

Wow, he had pretty much everything well planned in advance. Sucks to be you.

It's nice that he waited until after your birthday, and he gave you a good birthday too. It is unfortunate that he left though, FYL

I think it is important not to dump someone on their birthday - I don't think it is 'nice', I think it is expected - a decent thing to do but not something to be really thankful for. And he dumped her a minute after - that is ridiculously soon after.

I've been dumped a day after my birthday before... My parents actually took him and I to the melting pot.(super expensive) All you can do is keep your head held high and make sure you find a guy who isn't an asshole next time! Good luck OP! You deserve love
