Today, my girlfriend had a complete breakdown. I was trying to calm her down and reassure her that she will accomplish all of her dreams. Her response: "Then why am I even with you?" FML

Today, I decided to break up with my girlfriend. I sat her down and gave her the speech. She broke down in tears and said, “Why does every guy always abandon me? Why am I never good enough?” I felt so bad for her that I took back the breakup and we’re still together now. FML

Today, I told to my girlfriend of 5 years that I'm depressed about having no friends, no job and a difficult family life. I told her that she's the one constant that keeps me going. She decided this was a good time to break up with me to "find" herself, since I was being so mopey. FML

Today, I was diagnosed with depression. My girlfriend's idea of consoling me was to break up with me because she can't date a "psycho". FML

Today, my girlfriend's mom pulled me aside and started telling me about how her daughter was extremely depressed and suicidal before she met me, and how happy her family is because of me. I was planning on breaking up with her within the next week. FML

Well, let's not read too far into it since she was under emotional duress.

Well I'd probably break up with her after that because if I'm not part of what you thought your life would be like then I don't need you so bye

Don't worry too much about what she said during the breakdown. In the moment she was upset and hurt and very emotional and probably just lashed out at you since you were there. Perhaps she just wanted to hear it's normal to feel shit sometimes . Talk to her about what she wants when she has a breakdown.

Its not ok to lash out at the people you care about even if you are angry or emotional. There are usually underlying factors that causes. OP should have a serious talk about the relationship since she seems to be usuing him as a place holder until she can do better.

Get rid of that scum. As far as I'm concerned you don't say that to the person that you love and if you let her use her emotions to get out of it than I'm sorry but you deserve it. She makes it sound like she settled for second best and I'm sure you can do better so if I was you I would move on and make life easier in the long run.

I'm sorry OP the comment your girlfriend made was very harsh. If it were me personally I would tell her it's over. Don't let anyone treat you like your second best.
