Rubbing it in

Today, when I logged onto Facebook, I discovered a friend request from my ex who broke up with me and deleted me months ago. Upon adding her, I was taken to her profile where I saw dozens of status updates talking about how much she loves her new boyfriend, who she dumped me for. FML

Dumbass move

Today, I stupidly liked a post on my ex's social media account from three years ago. They then texted me immediately to ask why I was stalking them. FML

Love in the time of Facebook

By StillAlone - 23/10/2022 06:00

Today, I noticed my ex had unblocked me on Facebook. Since I still miss her and haven't been able to find love since our breakup, I sent her a friend request, thinking maybe she was leaving the door open for me, and we could reconcile. Apparently I was wrong because she promptly blocked me again. FML

Today, I sent a Facebook friend request to the guy who had the party I was at last night. I immediately realized, however, that my new profile picture is of me, smiling and holding the trophy I stole from his house. FML

Today, I received a friend request on Facebook. I didn't know her, but she was cute, so I accepted the request. After looking at her pictures, I sent her a message saying "What's up cutie, do I know you?". She responded "Yes, I'm your cousin". FML

Today, I received a friend request on Facebook from a girl I've had a crush on for a while. As I was about to accept it, it vanished. She explained later that she clicked on my name by accident, and didn't actually want to be friends at all. FML

yeah I was thinking the 'they' was to hide the ex being a guy. What does it matter though? this site is anonymous enough.

My theory. She is not still hung up on you but she just has a big ego, she thought that you would notice if she didn't accept because she needs attention and likes to think that and then she didn't want to make you feel bad (even though it probably wouldn't it would just boost her ego) so she wrote that. I think she's just has a big ego.

#'s 9 8 & 6... really ego? or maybe, just maybe.... in the tiny ass grainy and dark webcam shot that the person put as their profile pic they are indistinguishable from various hackers weirdos and that creepy dude who had a locker down the hall in highschool.
