Today, I got a birthday present from my boyfriend's mom. It was ProActiv acne solution. He tried to make me feel better by explaining it's because she wants to be able to include me in family pictures. FML

Today, I woke up next to my boyfriend. He gazed at me, stroked my cheek, and said, "Christ, you really need something for this acne." FML

Today, it's my birthday. I don't mind crappy gifts, but I have to wonder why the hell my boyfriend bought me a home enema kit. FML

Today, it was my birthday. My boyfriend had promised that the day would belong to me. But no, I had to drive 80km forth and back to pick him up from work, then he took pictures with his new camera lens, then he decided what to eat, demanded a massage, and then he just fell asleep. Happy birthday to me. FML

Today, it was my birthday. My boyfriend had been telling me for the past two weeks that he had something planned for the occasion. His plan? Me watching TV with his parents, who hate me, while he went to work. His gift? A brand new Xbox 360 for himself. FML

It's sort of harsh but he's just trying to help you.

I know it's tough honey but if your bf gave you benzoyl peroxide for your birthday it should tell you something...go to a dermatologist and start using the cream..look on the bright side, you must have a sparkling personality which your bf appreciates! Happy birthday :)

i don't really think that's mean. if OP's boyfriend knew she would be easily offended by it (which a lot-- but not all!), i don't think he would have purchased it for her. i think that it's the fact that he got her acne cream in general that made her want to submit this as an FML. out of all the lovely things he could buy her, why acne cream? lol.
