Teenagers and Love: You dodged a bullet

You dodged a bullet

By Anonymous - 09/10/2010 18:33 - United States

Today, my boyfriend told me it wasn't working out and he was breaking up with me. The reason? I have the same first and last name as a very unpopular girl, and he gets embarrassed when people mistakenly assume he's going out with her. FML

Today, I expressed my feelings to a guy I've liked for a long time. He basically turned me down because I have the same name as his mom, and dating me would be too weird. FML

Today, I went out with my friend and her boyfriend. Not knowing him very well, I accidentally called him by her ex’s name. He took that as a sign she was still seeing the ex and dumped her on the spot. She’s now not speaking to me for ruining her life. I’m just bad with names. FML

Today, my boyfriend broke up with me because he found out I’m a firstborn. My last boyfriend broke up with me because my hair blows in my face when the car window is down, and the one before that broke up with me because I only sleep with one pillow. FML

If he broke up with you over something as small as that, then he was a douche anyway. OP you are free to met a better guy! Remember, you are not single. you're available.

Well if your sexy he's just an idiot. If your ugly that was a really great excuse he had.

no offense but if he's breaking up with you for that he doesn't truly love you because if he did he wouldn't care.

If this girl is so unpopular, why do people assume he's dating her? Lol it seems to me that shes a bit more popular than you xD

Eh. If he gets embarrased about who he dates then just let him go. Even if that wasn't you, he is supposed to love his partner not get embarrassed about his popularity or whatnot. Find a better guy.
