Surprised?

By neverbeensurprised - 14/08/2009 05:29 - United States

Today, I found out my friend has been texting my long distance boyfriend more than I do. When I confronted her about it, she confessed that it was because they had been planning a surprise appearance for me. I've never been surprised before, and I ruined my own surprise. FML

Today, after I tried to plan a surprise party for my friend, and a series of miscommunications and accidental reveals, it turned it into a surprise party for myself. I walked into a room filled with people shouting, "Surprise!" FML

Today, my friends were acting strange around me. This afternoon, I got a text asking me to meet them out for a couple of drinks. Because of all the strange acting, I decided to tell them I'd go and then not go. I just found out they had been planning me a surprise party. FML

Today, knowing my long-distance boyfriend was cheating on me with a local girl, I decided to make a surprise visit to confront him by showing up to his home. Both of them answered the door. My boyfriend claimed to not know me, and threatened to call the cops. I ended up back at the airport in tears. FML

Today, I pretended to not be able to go out with a friend so I could hang with my boyfriend at the movies. When I sat down I received a text that said, "Turn around." It was her. FML

Love Hurts

Today, I learned that one of my friends is in love with me. How did I find out? A punch to the face from the boy she's supposed to be in a relationship with, for "coaxing her away" from him. FML

To all the people saying she needs to trust . . . How many FML's on here are about people trusting their significant others, only to be royaly ****** over by them? You never can tell what a person is going to do, and suspicious behavior should be questioned.

Yeah, but does it require talking to the friend MORE than he talks to the girlfriend? Seriously? That (I assume, as it was implied) is a LOT of time to say, "Hey, when should I come? What kind of gifts does she like? Where should I stay?"

You've "never" been surprised? Forget about the cheating or not for a second here, I want to know how you've never been surprised before.

#38, I think she meant no one has ever tried to have a surprise party or event for her before. Not that she's never been surprised in her life.

I text girls all the time, and their boyfriend's (who are usually friends of mine) are completely fine with it. Granted, I doubt I text them more than their actually BF's but my point still stands. And OP, what happens when we assume? Yeah, I thought so.

# 18 when i first moved away my bf didnt know where i lived so he and my roommate were texting for weeks planning a surprise visit for my bday and they successfully did so and it was great so its def possible that the op was in a similar situation.
