Today, my boyfriend, and best friend, had baked a cake, and wouldnt tell anyone who it was for. When I asked he said I'd know soon. He met me after class to break up with me and offered me the cake to make me feel better. FML

Why do women (in the comments) act like a guy breaking up with you means he's a douchebag. Nowhere does it say that he was an asshole, or broke up with her to **** her best friend. All it says is he broke with her and made her a cake to help her feel better. SO WHAT! Would you rather him stayed with her until he was so unhappy that he did resort to ******* her best friend?!

Should have shoved the cake in his face.

hahahahah that's so ******...and lame

@#5: cute, except for the fact that you're wrong. "Today, my boyfriend, and best friend, had baked a cake" is correct, at least up until that point in the sentence. "Today" can be kept separate from the sentence, thus the comma; "best friend" needs a comma before it because otherwise it would read "my boyfriend and best friend," which would grammatically read as not two people but one person. The only part that doesn't need the comma is the last bit-- and even then, it's defensible if it's considered non-essential information.

Granted, the first comma (near the "my boyfriend, and best friend") could have been avoided by saying "as well as my best friend" or something akin, but the content is still correct as is.

it makes it an FML becuase she baked the cake the guy was planning to be part of their own breakup. you dont find that a bit sad

whats wrong with you people. how many people bake a cake for their x, and your friend was trying to be nice.

#50 and everyone else - the boyfriend IS the best friend. Like #5 pointed out, the OP doesn't know how to use commas.

"the gays..." as if they're all the same. way to go with the generalizations, folks.

i like how people start drama in comments lmfao

#5, I was thinking the same as #54. Without that comma, that sentence would read to say two people made the cake. The comma is to say the boyfriend IS her best friend. The one after 'cake', however, is completely unnecessary but I believe it was written the way the poster would speak it.
