Today, my wife and I decided to try a relationship book. The first activity was to write down some things your partner does that bothers you. I made a very long list, then my wife and I swapped papers. She'd written, "nothing, I love everything about you." She read my list and began tearing up. FML

Today, I went to therapy. Previously, I had been given the task to write a list of things I hate about myself so my doctor could see what we needed to work on. I gave her the list, and she simply said, "Wow, I've never had someone give me such a long list." I had 55 items on the list. FML

Today, after I'd offered to make suggestions to my partner after she finished writing an essay for her college class, and she'd read my suggestions, we argued about every single point I wrote down. Despite telling her she didn't have to take any suggestions we argued for 2 days about it. The professor had the same notes as mine. FML

Today, I was talking with my friend-turned boyfriend and cutely told him that I could no longer remember all the things that he used to do that bothered me. He told me he could remember every one of mine and listed them all off for me. FML

Today, I wrote my boyfriend a love letter during class and told him to read it when he got home. He texted me later asking me why I gave him my school assignment. I must have handed the love letter in to my teacher. FML

Today, my husband and I went to our first counseling sessions, where the main focus was communication. When the therapist called us in together to discuss techniques we could use at home, my husband looked around, rolled his eyes, and responded with, "Uh huh" to every question. FML

Today, depressed about a recent break-up with my long-term boyfriend, I bought a book about moving on after a relationship ends. The cashier placed some standard promotional fliers in my bag during check-out. Once home, I pulled out the fliers. They were for a married couples retreat. FML

Today, my girlfriend found a letter I'd written to myself for moral support while we were broken up, in which I explained why we would never work out. Apparently I made a convincing argument. FML

Today, I found some .pdf files on my wife's computer. They were forms that had been filled out except for the date and the "reason" section. They were divorce papers. When confronted about it she said, "Well, if you piss me off really bad, I want to write down why before I calm down." FML

FYL for having a liar for a wife. seriously. if she said "nothing" she was lying. it's not that easy. she can love you to death and back, but there is almost guaranteed to be something about you, or something you do that bothers her.

Everyone says "she lied she lied", i think she was accepting his faults. To her, it couldve been endearing quirks. I thought it was cute, i think the guys a douche

Women are real good at hiding their feelings. So she was probably lying when she wrote nothing, but she doesn't know she was lying until you annoy her. Trust me. I should know, im a girl

this is neither FYL or YDI 1) its sweet that she wrote nothing (when im sure there is something) 2) at least you were honest 3) she will work on those 4) every girl wants to be told what bothers their partner. end of story.

You're a jackass that doesn't deserve a wife like that.

oh come on. i'm pretty sure she wrote that to be sweet, and was hoping you would do the same. i would hope that she would love everything about you, but you two just seemed to take the relationship book differently: you were honest (maybe too much, but i won't fault you for it) and probably trying to strengthen your relationship by trying to become better spouses to each other, and she probably saw it as a way to get closer and sweeter. everyone finds at least one thing annoying about their significant other, huge or infintessimal, so take comfort in knowing that at least *you* were telling the truth.
