Today, my boyfriend of three years sent me a text saying: "I don't think we can see each other anymore, the nights were great, but I think I'm falling in love with Julie". I'm Julie. FML

They were dating for three years before this. I'm going to give the poster the benefit of the doubt and say they were supposed to have been exclusive through most of that. Thus, he was cheating on her. And he's a dick.

talk to him about it. Don't just break up with him.

because it is not a good thing to find out your long term boyfriend is cheating on you.

Not necessarily true. Not for all people, after all. You don't think that someone can learn from their mistakes, right? I've done things I consider immoral in the past, but I learned from it and am not going to do that again. But yeah, dump him. He's "starting to fall in love with you" after three years? Bit late. If he'd done that after a couple of weeks into the relationship, yeah, fine. I'd even see myself forgiving that, depending on the circumstances (and since many relationships don't have a definitive beginning, like "we've been dating since the 14th of October", they might not have talked about being exclusive for a while), but after three years, unless they talked about it and are both okay with it, you'd just assume they're exclusive. You /were/ officially dating, right?

Well that's tricky.... Love is nice and all but three years? Come on...and he was seeing another girl on the side nonetheless. But maybe he was just confused about what he wanted...If you still want him tell him if he wants to keep you he'll have to make the hell up for that stupid text he sent you...If he really is falling for you that'll give him good incentive not to be such a douche in the future...

OP, I hope you dumped him, right? It doesn't matter that he's falling in love with you. He was seeing someone on the side. While you can't expect monogamy right when you start dating someone, after three years there should have been one unless you mutually agreed to not be monogamous (you would mention it in your FML).

That's probably the line he's used on all the girls he has cheated on u w in the past 3 yrs. think about it, it's the perfect excuse, he gets ass on the side then when he's through he tells them he likes the other girl he's dating better.

i agree, a cheater is a cheater... they aren't respectful or honest and feel entitled to whatever they can get away with. i don't know, maybe you should confront him until he buys you things to win you back and then dump him and clean up on ebay.

Stop whining, mmmkay? He's leaving someone else for you, mmmkay? Be happy, mmmkay?
