Today, I was fired from a managerial position I've held for two years due to "inappropriate relations with a subordinate": I was dating a coworker. My girlfriend then broke up with me four hours later. Because I no longer had a job. I hired her. FML

Today, my boss broke off our relationship because he said it's inappropriate. I really liked him, but I accepted it and respected his integrity. A few hours later, I found out he's now dating my colleague. FML

Today, my boyfriend was fired. After breaking the news, he also broke up with me. Apparently, his boss had a creepy crush on me and would give my boyfriend bonuses for bringing me to company events and, occasionally, out on the boss's personal boat. Looks like I am no longer useful. FML

Today, my boss fired me because his girlfriend wanted the job I had. She has no experience whatsoever in my line of work, it was just his "anniversary present" for her. FML

Without knowing more about it, I hesitate to offer unsolicited advice, but is there someone you could report this to?

If you have HR go to them. It was unprofessional for the 2 of you to start a relationship, but it could actually be illegal for her to fire you. Bring proof.

As a very wise friend of mine once said: "Don't shit where you eat." Surely after 4 years you would have realized the risks you were taking dating your boss.

NEVER, EVER date a coworker. Especially if he/she's your boss.

There are always exceptions. I dated a co-worker and now we've been happily married for years.

If she broke up with you 1st, i'd go with unlawful termination.

At least you didn't lose your house and car. Then it'd be time to write a county song.

Maybe they were dating before, and OP needed a job so the girlfriend game him a job under her management. Either way, she shouldn't have dumped AND fired you. Do one or the other. FYL.

Lawsuit. You didn't want to have a relationship. You just felt like you had to because the person was your boss. You had no choice but to have a relationship to keep your job. And then suddenly you were dumped and fired at the same time. Definite lawsuit.
