Today, after hearing the doctor saying my girlfriend can never be pregnant, I got a bit too excited. I'm currently on the 5th hour of the silent treatment. FML

Today, after screaming at me this morning, my wife has been giving me the silent treatment. We're trying to get pregnant, but she caught me masturbating, or "reducing my sperm count on purpose" as she called it. I just wanted some harmless fun with some porn, since getting pregnant has made actual sex a chore. FML

Today, my girlfriend told me she's pregnant and I did not take it well. She had planned to record my happy reaction for Facebook; instead she got video of me bursting into tears, and trying to talk her into an emergency abortion. She sent it to my parents to punish me. FML

Today, I went to the doctor. They did a test and said they would email me the results. My girlfriend saw the email that said "The test was positive", and now she thinks I'm cheating on her with someone named Doctor Johnson. FML

Today, my doctor told me I'm pregnant. Since we've been trying for several years, I called my husband to tell him the good news. Not long after, my doctor called to inform me there'd been a clerical mix-up and I'm not actually pregnant after all. FML

Today, my girlfriend tells me she missed her period this month. I felt excited until she said, "I will let you know the results of the paternity test." I was not aware we needed a paternity test. FML

Today, I went to my gynecologist's for a check-up. After the doctor checked me I went to the bathroom. It turns out the walls aren't soundproofed, because I could hear the doctor telling his assistant, "God! How did she ever find a husband?" FML

Today, I found out that I'm not actually pregnant. I've apparently been having a hysterical pregnancy because I want a child so badly. I don't know which was worse, the look of relief on my husband's face or having to send a mass email to inform my family and friends. FML

Today, my pregnancy test came back positive. My boyfriend is no fan of fatherhood, so it was with some hesitation that I called him and let him know I'm pregnant. He replied, "Like hell you are!" and hung up. He now refuses to answer any of my calls. FML

Today, I gave my boyfriend the silent treatment. He put his Facebook status as "When your girlfriend finally shuts up for once". FML

STFU

By annoyedguy - 30/06/2009 11:20 - United States

Today, my girlfriend missed our date, so I angrily texted her, telling her if she can't make our dates then we should break up, and generally telling her off. Five minutes later I get a picture of her sleeping in a hospital bed from her mother, saying, "Shut the fuck up, she had appendicitis." FML

Get a vasectomy if you don't want children. Sympathize with your girlfriend because learning of infertility can be devastating for some.

Well I would say that you deserved it but you already know that.

YDI. It's your gf and you should care more about her feelings rather than be thinking about sex only.

You deserve it, you insensitive prick! Even if you don't want children, that kind of news can be completely shattering. I sympathize with your girlfriend.

Learn some tact, why don't you? How do you think that would make your girlfriend feel? Even my aunt, who didn't want anymore children, was upset at having to get a hysterectomy. It's a sensitive issue for a lot of people.

As a female who did a happy dance when I found out I was sterile, I wouldn't fret too much. She'll either get over it, or you move on to greener pastures.

Well, amazingly, not everybody is the same as you. I'd be absolutely gut-wrenched if I found out I could never get pregnant. Please have some sympathy.

Not being able to have kids of your own isn't something you can "just get over" if it's something you've always wanted. For a majority of women this is life shattering news.

Be careful just the same! I was taking a medicine for a long time that had side effects of possible subfertility, but I'm taking every form of birth control I can get my hands on (including abstinence) just in case.

I wish I was sterile. I'd be okay to have kids maybe one day, but I don't ever want to be pregnant and birth a kid. I seriously am so against it for very personal reasons. A year and a half ago I had a pregnancy scare, and I told my boyfriend if I couldn't get an abortion I would kill myself. And honestly, it's 100% likely I would have done something harmful to myself to get it out. And yes, I do sympathise for people like OP's girlfriend. I wish I could give my fertility to them.
