Today, the girl I have been dating for the past couple months broke it off with me. She said she's tired of waiting around for me and being ignored in the mean time. I'm sorry, I shouldn't have been so greedy as to finish my 2 degrees and work 2 jobs to pay for my school. How selfish of me. FML

it's for the better, you have no time for a relationship anyway. soooo.... why even start one if you are going to be nonexistant? two jobs and college, that gotta suck.

you really shouldn't be dating at all think abt it from her point of view she never sees you and your gone all hours how is a realiatuonship like that supposed to work? you weren't selfish but she wasn't your priority andshe felt like she needed to be. she shouldve come talk to you but she didn't so now it's time to move on

I don't know what your situation is like, but I dated a guy who used being busy with work as an excuse to not call or even text more for weeks at a time. If a guy truly cares for a girl, he will find a little bit of time (10 mintues a day!) to let her know he is thinking about her and misses her. I would even offer to bring him lunch at work to help him out and at least get to see him for a moment, but all he had was more excuses.

Actually, that is pretty selfish of you. But it's a good kind of selfish! Your education is incredibly valuable and you deserve to be with someone who recognizes that.

I don't think you were being selfish, but surely you can understand that someone would not want to stick around in a not particularly long relationship if they didn't feel happy and fulfilled. I'm sorry you lost her OP but I think you sound more spiteful than necessary.

I completely understand her point of view. The relationship was obviously going nowhere, and she could see that.

that's what you poor people get for not having money

Oh yeahhhh, I agree with many of the comments above me. So I'll try and keep the redundancy at a minimum. Time was not on your side, and relationships need time. It is probably best for you to stay single anyways, more time for education and work! XD I will say though, sounds like you have a nasty attitude with the way you worded your FML. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt that the break up made you bitter. *whispers: you were a little selfish for wanting the girl and to be able to move forward in life, doesn't make you a bad person though.* I just better not see an FML in the future from you stating that you have 2 degrees and work a minimum wage job!!! :D

If your so busy, why have a girlfriend in the first place? maybe right now is not the best time to be in a relationship.

She was well within her rights, if you're that busy the only kind of relationship you have time for is one that requires very little attention. Most girls want a bit more than "very little" so either work less, or suck it up.

Dude - if you can do 2 degrees and 2 jobs then she is a fool. You'll be rich - and better of without her.

Yeah, a woman would be a damned fool to want to be emotionally fulfilled, rather than be with a guy with money.
