Love: Today, my boyfriend woke up wheezing terribly, aching, and sneezing....

Today, my boyfriend woke up wheezing terribly, aching, and sneezing. He's allergic to cats. I have 2 and they are my babies. He gave me an ultimatum, him or the cats. I haven't figured out how I'm going to tell him that I choose the cats. FML

Today, I went to the doctor to find out why I've been feeling so sick the past several weeks. Turns out, I'm severely allergic to the cat of my girlfriend of two years. I told her "It's me or the cat." She chose the cat. FML

Don't make me choose

Today, after being diagnosed with cat allergies, I explained to my cat-loving boyfriend that the doctor strongly recommended not allowing the cat in the bedroom. At 1:30 a.m. my boyfriend got out of the bed to go sleep in the spare room because, "the cat is sad." FML

Today, I went to meet my boyfriend's parents for the first time. While I was there, I started to get really itchy. Turns out they have 5 cats. Guess what I'm allergic to? FML

Today, I told my mom I'm severely allergic to my cat and that the doctor told me it would be best to get rid of the cat. Somewhat jokingly, I told her it was either me or the cat. She chose the cat. She was serious too. FML

Today, to celebrate moving into a new apartment, my girlfriend decided she would get a kitten. She didn't know I'm allergic to cats. When I told her, she decided that she couldn't date someone who couldn't be around her cat; the one she doesn't have yet. FML

Today, I discovered that my son has an allergy to cats. My partner of two years, not wanting to fight, suggested a compromise: that my son and the cat take turns sleeping outside. FML

Summer vibes

Today, my roommates adopted two kittens without consulting me. We're not allowed to have pets in our apartment and I'm severely allergic to cats. Oh well, it's not like I needed to be able to breathe this summer. FML

Bravo for keeping your cats! It's nice to see at least one person who won't dump them just because their bf is allergic.

If you got rid of the cats, the relationship wouldn't have lasted anyways. You would have resented him for emotionally blackmailing you into getting rid of them, and broke up soon after.

Good for you! My cat has been with me for 5 years now, and I rescued him from a shelter. My boyfriend, who happens to be allergic to cats as well would never ask me to choose between him and my cat because he knows he would lose.

"Today, because I'm allergic to my girlfriend's cats, she dumped me for them. FML." Waiting to see that on here, lol. But I do actually agree that you probably made the right choice, doesn't sound like you were all that serious anyway, and he shouldn't have made you choose. Sounds more like an FHL lol.
