Today, I was telling my dad how my boyfriend dumped me yesterday. He responded by blowing his nose into his hand, wiping it in my hair, then saying "There, a REAL problem to whine about." FML

Today, my boyfriend of 6 months broke up with me. I was crying for over an hour in my room. My dad came in and asked what was wrong. Just as I was about to tell him, he stops me and simply says "Oh, honey. I don't care... Just keep the noise down." Then walks out. FML

Today, I came home crying after my boyfriend dumped me for another girl. My dad told me to come tell him what was wrong. I sat down and let it all out, after which he looked up from his book, into my eyes, and gave me his loving advice: "Just cry about it and move on to another bastard." FML

Today, my boyfriend has never gotten along with my dad, but this afternoon during what I thought was a completely normal conversation, he just stood up, yelled he couldn’t take my dad anymore, punched him in the nose, dumped me, and drove away. FML

Today, after being dumped by my boyfriend of two years, I poured my heart out to my dad. He nodded and looked sympathetic throughout. Afterwards, I asked him what I should do. He replied, "How the hell should I know?" and awkwardly left my room. FML

Today, I told my dad that I broke up with my first serious girlfriend. He responded by blaring sad breakup songs as loud as he could throughout the house, just to see me "cry like a bitch". FML

Today, I came home in tears after my boyfriend admitted to cheating on me. My dad told me to sit down and tell him everything. He's pretty eccentric, so I wasn't fazed when he put on a pair of sunglasses. When I stopped talking, I noticed his mouth was slightly agape and he was snoring. FML

Today, my boyfriend dumped me. Apparently, my nose hair scares him. FML

Today, I saw my 22-year-old boyfriend blow his nose into his hand, then wipe his snot on our couch. There was a box of tissues directly in front of him. FML

Today, I thought my boyfriend was being sweet by stroking my hair, only to discover he was getting rid of a booger. FML

Today, my dad seemed moody, so to lift his spirits, I told him I loved him. He just snorted, "You gay or something, boy?" Really mature, dad, really mature. FML

Your dad could have probably handled that better, but at the same time it will hurt only for a little while and the world will continue spinning.

I'm sorry you got dumped, but I'm sure you'll be okay. As for the dad problem, wash your hair and plot revenge.

That's insensitive... And don't worry OP, I'm sure you'll find someone else :)

Maybe that was just his way of trying to distract you. Could've gone a different route but hey, he tried.

If even one of my parents did that to me, I'd give them a 5 year silent treatment. Putting boogers in anyone's hair is disgusting.

Agreed, this is just the grossest thing. I'm still cringing. Boyfriend or no boyfriend, whining or not, it's just horrible. The dad could have just ignored her and walked off if he hated the conversation that much, but if he really wanted to go down the "I'll give you something real to cry about" route, I'd honestly rather just be hit (not in the face).

He probably didn't deserve you anyways, but the breakup will get easier to deal with in time. Most dads don't know how to deal with "girl stuff", but what he did was pretty gross. Sorry you had to deal with both of those things.
