Today, my newly ex-fiancé, the father of my 5-year-old child, moved out of state with no warning. I just spent my last $500 paying off his car, and the rent is due tomorrow. FML

Today, my boyfriend moved out and took all his things with him. He also took some things that didn't belong to him, namely my rent money. My landlord comes tomorrow. FML

Surprise!

By Anonymous - 13/12/2021 01:58

Today, my boyfriend told me he’d have a surprise for me when I got home. The surprise was he’d moved out, dumped me, and cut me off from his share of the bills, because he’s not interested in marriage and babies. I can’t afford the rent by myself so I’m going to have to move back to my mother's. FML

Unreasonable

Today, my fiancé of over 5 years and I split, since I don't want kids and he does, which I have told him throughout our relationship. It gets better: we live in a house that his father owns and his father wants me out… in a fucking week. FML

Here comes the flood

Today, my tiny apartment flooded. My family lives out of state and the few friends I have all gave me B.S. excuses for why I can't stay over for a few nights. I'm so broke this month that I'll probably have to hit up my psycho ex. FML

Today, three days before their rent was due, my fiancé's friends moved out of our basement without saying a word to us. On their way out, they took an envelope from my locked desk with $800 in it that was for our wedding in six months. FML

Stuck

By Lexxxiii - 26/03/2021 11:01

Today, my friend informed me that I’m not moving in with him anymore that his sister is taking my place. Unfortunately, I'd finally gathered the money and a car to move out of state with him. Just when I thought I was going to get away from this hellhole, I’m sinking further into never leaving. FML

Time to move on

Today, my boyfriend of 4 years, whom I just signed a year lease, broke up with me, exactly a week after my best friend's funeral in my last year of college. I can't afford to live in our apartment alone. I'm going to have to drop out and move in with my sister states away. FML

Broke boy

Today, my girlfriend broke it off with me when she realized I can no longer treat her to expensive gifts and meals. My ex-wife is bleeding me dry with child support payments, I can no longer afford the lifestyle I used to have. She won’t take me back. Now I’m totally single and broke. FML

Today, the day before I was going to move in with my army fiancé, he was told he would be deployed very soon. I can't pay for the apartment without him, and now have to move back in with my parents until he returns from active duty. FML

Jerk. No one should leave their child and former love high and dry like that.

What a ******* douchebag! You have a kid and he just left like that!? I really don't ******* get people like this and I swear if I knew him I would enjoy slowly disecting his testicles. I'm really sorry but at least you realized it and let him go. I really wish the best for you and your kid.

Wait, so if YOU had to pay off his car with your last $500, that means that he wouldn't have had money for rent anyways, right? Otherwise HE could've paid off his car himself.

Fiancé? You & he never had any serious wedding plans.

You should've cut that guy loose a long time ago.

Another reason to wait until you're MARRIED to have kids. If he was going to skip out on you, then he probably wouldn't have had the balls to go through with the wedding, and would have chicken out at the last second. Or if you would have been married when this happened you would have a leash ready to pull him right back. But sorry OP, maybe call and report him missing?

Have a leash ready to pull him right back... Yeah, because that is exactly what OP wants: to force someone to be with her.

A leash?? O_o What the hell are you talking about? You cannot force someone to stay with you unless you kidnap them and last time I checked, that was still illegal. Husbands and wives are sadly bailing out of their family everyday. The guy would have left no matter what

People walk out on their marriages ALL the time. That's hardly any sort of guarantee - and marriage shouldn't be used as some sort of strange sanctimonious "leash." That's... really twisted actually...

Sound rotten but what did you do to make a guy do that?

It was kind of stupid of OP to spend her last $500 on her ex's car note, even if he was supposed to pay the rent... It's actually really irresponsible. However, FYL, I know that no one expects to be screwed over like this. Also, if you're with a guy for over 5 years and have a kid with him and you still aren't married, he's most likely not marrying you. OP seems like an airhead.
