Love: Today, my boyfriend sent me a text telling me to turn the radio...

Today, my boyfriend sent me a text telling me to turn the radio on to a certain station. When I did, there was a talk show on, and the host was ranting about how important it is for women to control themselves and not be emotional. My boyfriend continued texting me, asking if I was listening. FML

Today, I accidentally changed the radio station in my boyfriend’s car. He threw a humongous fit and started driving recklessly, almost causing an accident on several occasions. He then dropped me off at a stop sign and told me to, "walk home, you need to lose weight anyway, fat bitch." FML

Today, my boyfriend was having a really bad day, so I decided to call him and try to calm him down. At one point, I thought it would be sweet to sing him a song since he claimed to love my voice. Before I could get half way through, he told me to shut up because I was getting on his nerves and just making things worse. FML

Today, my drunk boyfriend flipped out and told me I was a total control freak, and that he couldn't handle how weird and clingy I am. All I did was ask if his phone was charged. FML

Today, my man complained about having to listen to my "emotional problems for hours." Yeah, we did talk for two hours, 90% of which was him asking for my advice on which new mattress to buy for his bed. FML

Today, I had to tell my boyfriend his dad was sending me inappropriate texts that made me feel uncomfortable. I tried to make him stop, but he kept going until I felt like I needed to tell my boyfriend. Who's now broken up with me because of it. FML

Today, I got in a fight with my boyfriend. I sent him a long message pouring my heart out about how hurt I am that he constantly ignores me or responds to almost everything I say in monosyllables. He texted back "ok". FML

Yes, it's very important for us women to not be emotional and to just shut up and listen to our men. Emotions, you see, are not natural parts of life, but irrational outbursts that we must learn to control! Your bf is a jackass.

speaking of talkshows, buy the Lazlow Show boxset at http://www.lazlow.com for the FML, maybe your boyfriend just wants you to be happier. it kinda sounds like your not happy. but i don't know. this FML doesn't give much information.

You should actually thank him for that, because now you know what an asshat he truly is. It's one thing to have an adult conversation about things. It's another to be a coward and basically have some stranger have that conversation with you for him, not to mention that the guy ranting on the radio wasn't specifically talking to you and therefore was probably really harsh.

Maybe he couldn't tell you in the best way he can...at least he's looking out for you.

i like how the person on the radio was ranting about controlling emotions. quite hypocritical? ugh. i hope you turned off your phone for a while, non-stop texts alone would make someone emotionally jacked

Anyone who's ever listened to talk radio knows that there was probably no sincere advice to be had from the program. If you're a strong person, you'll dump him immediately.
