Today, I was on my way to meet some friends for lunch. As I was parking, one of their cell phones accidentally called mine. As I walked to the restaurant, I listened in as some of my best friends discussed all the things they hate about me. FML

get new friends

#103 - On 01/22/2010 at 9:02pm by anonymous45610

Get better friends.

#2 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:09pm by HeyitsPheddy

I agree with #1.
It could be karma kicking them in the ass though.

Your "Best Friends" suck.

#3 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:12pm by SiLveRStaRLIGHT

"Friends?"

#4 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:12pm by silverwind

That's what friends are for.

Is sulfuric acid easily obtainable where you live?

#6 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:13pm by TurtleGenius

Something similar happened to me once. My mother took a road trip with some of her friends and her cellphone accidentally called mine. I got to hear all about how her life would have been so much better if she'd never had me.

Trust me; it gets better after a while. You're luckier, though: You can easily distance yourself from those so-called "friends."

#7 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:14pm by cj_gurl

Meh, could be a good thing, make you change your annoying ways. Unless they were just being venomous bastards, then it's time to up the ante on the annoying XD

#8 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:14pm by ravioli221

Tell us more, what did they hate exactly ;) That would've been even more interesting!

#9 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:15pm by Bhetti

at least you know now dem "friends" be mean bitches, and i hope you expressed this to them. i would suggest gaining new friends... which i know is easier said then done. good luck !!

#10 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:19pm by failwhatwhat

that sucks, but honestly at least you know. :/ sorry man.

#11 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:24pm by terimaa

I don't believe for a second that you didn't deserve it. If all of your best friends hate you then obviously you're doing something wrong. Don't be such an asshole, and maybe they'd like you better.

#12 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:26pm by Ender_

i'm really sorry that sucks... i'll be your friend!

#13 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:26pm by RoldGold38

Best friends, huh?

#14 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:27pm by cheezcake

i dont know, whenever someone accidently dials me, all i can hear is muffled voices. would you really be able to hear what they're saying clearly?

#15 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:27pm by abcxyz123

pocket dial

#16 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:28pm by footballcrazy24

pocket dial

#17 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:28pm by footballcrazy24

if you think about it,
everyone has things that they don't like about people
nobody is perfect,
i know that there are plenty of things i can't stand about my best friends
it's just life.

#18 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:31pm by sLap

mkay, i wonder how you retaliated.
I would have pretened like everything was normal.
Then did some sneaky underhanded shit, and then got them back.
But thats just the type of person I am. I dont like to always handle
things emotions first, it gets revenge better.

=]
but they were fuckeddd up,

#19 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:34pm by ohhhhshizzz

It wasn't an accident...

#20 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:35pm by killface

That'll teach you to be the last one to show up. What did you think the others were going to talk about while they were waiting for you?

#21 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:36pm by thugbert

that's fucked up i'm sorry, at least now you know and can find better friends.

#22 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:39pm by xxyumtasticxx

We did it on purpose.

#23 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:41pm by wallythedolly

yeah, definitely time to get new friends.

#24 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:44pm by ecilart

it wasn't an accident...

#25 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:51pm by irv616

# 7 that's harsh.

#26 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:58pm by youre_fucked

did they like, butt dial?
i hate when that happens...it's so annoying

anyways, i agree with #16

#27 - On 04/06/2009 at 9:00pm by midnightsun0209

# 7 That's so sad.

But this FML at least you know the truth, and you can stop wasting your time being friends with them. I hope you said something.

#28 - On 04/06/2009 at 9:03pm by cherrybollosm04

:(

you deserve better friends.

are you sure they were talking about you?

#29 - On 04/06/2009 at 9:07pm by FlightlessTalk

When you got there, you should've told them that you just found out that you have cancer and you're going to die in 3 weeks.

...that outta show 'em.

#30 - On 04/06/2009 at 9:23pm by Murdock7x4

Friends do that shit all the time. No matter how good of friends you are with a group of people there will be things about you that they don't like. And they are going to talk about those things when you aren't around. Shit happens.

#31 - On 04/06/2009 at 9:25pm by kandy

@#19. I'm pretty sure there are better ways to seek revenge (if you must) than faking something as serious as cancer. That isn't even funny.

#32 - On 04/06/2009 at 9:27pm by kandy

#1,

sometimes it is too convient and sometimes it's not. for example, i've had friends who have included a specific person that all but one person likes. when they leave to go get the movie tickets, we would start to talk about them. weither it was with or without them knowing. most likely without though, i'm hoping.

#33 - On 04/06/2009 at 9:40pm by JackTheRipper

Improve what they said.

#34 - On 04/06/2009 at 9:42pm by Frlf

im sure that you talk bad about some of them as much as they do about you. use this opportunity to fix all your "bad qualities"

#35 - On 04/06/2009 at 9:44pm by pinkygirl

Like you don't do the same thing about them. EVERYONE does it.

#36 - On 04/06/2009 at 9:56pm by oeipuds

oops. meant #30.

#37 - On 04/06/2009 at 9:57pm by kandy

I think its time you get new friends...

#38 - On 04/06/2009 at 10:07pm by 56578

Aww, I'm so sorry. Don't listen to anyone who says you deserve this - it isn't your fault. Girls can be such bitches.

#39 - On 04/06/2009 at 10:08pm by jet

Did you at least drive off without them?

#40 - On 04/06/2009 at 10:29pm by uncivilengineer

I love how nowhere in the post was the poster identified as a female, yet we ALL know that she is a girl.

Girls = Evil!!!!!

#41 - On 04/06/2009 at 10:29pm by alwex

Something like this happened to me, except my friends were out when I was sick with a stomach fly and I got to hear a voicemail one of my "friends" left talking about how she was glad I was sick and I deserved it and she hoped I died. I was like "WTF is this??" 0_e But it was different because my other friends basically called her a crazy bitch. So yeah, been there. F**k them and find new friends.

#42 - On 04/06/2009 at 10:30pm by TheEpicScrewup

#12, youre such a douche bag. do YOU even have friends? hahaha

these are not real friends.

im sorry :/

#43 - On 04/06/2009 at 11:10pm by jaimesmiles

Damn, but honestly we all do it maybe not to that extent but can you swear that you havnt?

And Revenge is such a nice thing. Make sure they know it was you too.


~Forsythe~

#44 - On 04/06/2009 at 11:17pm by Forsythe307

Well, at least now you know, and you can get better friends...

#45 - On 04/06/2009 at 11:31pm by Ngood7

Get better friends.

Or stop being a douche.

The choice is yours.

#46 - On 04/06/2009 at 11:40pm by Jackthestripper

Hahahaha only shitty thing for you #7 is that this person can choose their friends.. you're stuck with that mom for the rest of your life. One that apparently didn't want you.. that's a rough one.

#47 - On 04/06/2009 at 11:41pm by Hugeness

Have you never gossiped or bitched about any of your friends?

Were any of their comments deserved?

Look on the positive side: either you've learned some things you could improve about yourself, even though your friends weren't comfortable telling you to your face; or you've learned some things about your friends, and whether you should regard them as best friends.

A tough way to find out - but then I've not experienced any particularly easy ways.

#48 - On 04/06/2009 at 11:45pm by tipple

People always do that, usually are more mean than what thy actually mean.
Everyone here has a friend that has flaws, everyone does, and we all notice it.

#49 - On 04/06/2009 at 11:52pm by oakaleafy

haha i've been in a similar situation. i was talking to two people on AIM, having light conservation with each when one says the other one told him he doesn't like me. what was i supposed to do, confront him about it? you don't say "i heard you don't like me." when you're getting along well randomly.

#50 - On 04/07/2009 at 12:21am by thereitgo

I hope you ate a lot of expensive food, had $10 martinis, and then ditched them before the check came.

#51 - On 04/07/2009 at 12:32am by crazy_cat_lady

karma just kicked them both in the ass. really, really hard. lol.

I hope you called them on it and said "You know, I really would have liked to hear this from you TO MY FACE instead of from a pocket call. Good to know my best friends are backstabbing shit-talkers."

I wouldn't ditch them as friends if I were you, but I'd definitely let them know that you don't appreciate being talked about behind your back like that.

#52 - On 04/07/2009 at 12:40am by McLaughlane

time to do some damage!

#53 - On 04/07/2009 at 12:41am by Zombie_ADD

#6: yes. paint shops.

going to shop for sodium cyanide too?

#54 - On 04/07/2009 at 1:08am by blland

everybody talks shit bout everybody.
sad&pathetic, but true.

#55 - On 04/07/2009 at 1:16am by wickedsick

I know it hurts, but it's good that you know this now before they could betray you. Dump them. Find good friends.

#56 - On 04/07/2009 at 1:28am by mehwhateverr

I don't think it was random, I think it was fate. If it was real, and they really hate you, move on. You should be able to tell.

#57 - On 04/07/2009 at 1:46am by ColdChoas

who cares? My friends tell me what they hate about me to my face and I'm a better person for it.

#58 - On 04/07/2009 at 2:02am by neonoodle

friends bitch about eachother all the time.
i'd say it's nothing to worry about.

#59 - On 04/07/2009 at 4:03am by schadenfreudeFTW

Your friends are assholes

#60 - On 04/07/2009 at 4:13am by teamhat

you could always get better friends, preferably the cool ones lol, then "accidently" call one of them and talk about how dumb they are and whatnot. and then when they wanna hang with you, just be like... umm i'm busy sorry..*coughs* loser *cough cough*

#61 - On 04/07/2009 at 5:32am by ilaughatfmls

My ex-boyfriend's phone called me from his pocket at work once. I got to listen as my EX-boyfriend complained about our sex life! Yay!

#62 - On 04/07/2009 at 6:49am by Jbugbaby28

I would SO call them on it. I'd advise you to target the most timid, easy-to-embarrass person and make them look as stupid as possible. Then, target them where they're alone but very public, really shame the shit out of them. Then, stop associating with them (sorry you wasted your time with douche-bags).

#63 - On 04/07/2009 at 6:50am by everythingtold

Yea, mine phone called my ex once right when I was talking about him. Luckily, it was before we broke up and I was talking about how great the sex was, but it still happens.
I had one phone that was literally POSSESSED and called whoever it wanted whenever it wanted. Whether I called that person today, yesterday, or a MONTH ago. Or never.. Didn't matter. If you were in my phone you were a target.

#64 - On 04/07/2009 at 9:41am by perfectwinds

I hope that when you got to lunch you exaggerated all the features about you that they hate, and then never called them/answered their calls again. Maybe I don't hold all my friendships close enough to my heart, because with most people (sauve the closest of my friends - since you said "some" of your best friends, thankfully it's not all the important people in your life who feel this way about you) I just think that would be kind of fun, reason to act like as much as a douche as possible for a day.

#65 - On 04/07/2009 at 9:43am by PTERONOPHOBIA

Aw I'm sorry :/
FYL..

#66 - On 04/07/2009 at 9:44am by itsTiffany

for all the "everyone does that" umm.. no they don't. that's juvenile, if you don't like a person so much that you have to talk about them behind his back, don't hang out with them. but i guess if everyone had sense enough to do that we would be able to say "OMG!!! FRIENEMIES!!!"

#67 - On 04/07/2009 at 9:46am by wellthatsagiven

FRIENEMIES!!! like omahgah! (sorry, the dumb people saying "everyone does it" make me feel like i'm reading the diary of a twelve year old girl)

#68 - On 04/07/2009 at 9:49am by wellthatsagiven

Personally, I'd love to get that kind of inside look at what my friends think about me, even if it were horrible. I'd have a better idea of how to fuck with them to no end.

#69 - On 04/07/2009 at 10:20am by Banthestrandland

You need better friends.

#70 - On 04/07/2009 at 10:27am by meaganwas

I posted this FML and just wanted to say that

A) I am, in fact, a guy and these are guy friends

B) The phone was on the table, not in a pocket.

C) one of them literally is my best friend for the past 4 years and

D) one of them came over later on that day and we had a long talk about it and mended things up.

#71 - On 04/07/2009 at 10:32am by lespaul

Hey LesPaul. I say fuck them, you shoulda sat down, accentuated all the things they hated about you. Ordered the most expensive thing on the menu including numerous drinks (if you drink), then when asking for the check say "Hey Assholes, enjoy the check, I heard everything you said, annnd feel free to go fuck yourselves...PEACE" ....

#72 - On 04/07/2009 at 10:43am by wompwompwomp

#72... that is the best idea ever haha

#73 - On 04/07/2009 at 10:54am by lor080

haha this happened to me too, but with my mum. She was slightly pissed up at a party with her mates and she was chatting about how I needed to stop acting like such an easy slag. I've slept with one guy; my current boyfriend.
Maybe I should have FML'ed it.

#74 - On 04/07/2009 at 12:03pm by Mandy

I know how you must feel here, I have the same problems with my friends. If I were you, I probably would have faith in your friends (unlike many of these commenters)--for now, at least. Everybody dislikes things about everybody else. Use it to your advantage and change if you can. As always, try to increase the friends you have, but don't give up on these or treat them poorly. You know hate the fact that they were talking about you negatively--well, at least they've always been nice to your face (and probably will continue to do so). Trust that they are indeed your friends, through and through. But don't quote me--I have a TON of doubt about my own friendships and find it hard to take my own advice!

"there is one person in every group of friends that nobody fucking likes"

#76 - On 04/07/2009 at 2:48pm by jewels_p

fake

#77 - On 04/07/2009 at 4:36pm by mattiscool

hah aww, that's terrible.

#78 - On 04/07/2009 at 4:39pm by lalosaa

Better yet,

"Today, I was on my way to lunch with some friends at a restaurant. On the way there we were talking about this one girl that we hated. Turns out, my phone had accidentally called her. She heard everything. We met her at the restaurant 10 minutes later. FML"

#79 - On 04/07/2009 at 5:54pm by Thermotic

that sucks
stop hanging out with those bitches

#80 - On 04/07/2009 at 7:29pm by jessxoxo28

they probably did it on purpose so you would hear.

#81 - On 04/07/2009 at 9:09pm by livexlaughxlove1

DOUCHERS! :0

#82 - On 04/07/2009 at 9:33pm by hollisterhottiex

I agree with #1. If it is true, syrup the bitches cars.

#83 - On 04/07/2009 at 10:53pm by starshine3987

that suckssssss
D: sorry

#84 - On 04/08/2009 at 12:43am by m0nicam0nster

thats just fuckin rude, i hate when people do that....

#85 - On 04/08/2009 at 9:56am by Velocininja

Hey LesPaul - I'm glad you go to sort it out with at least one of them!

Keep smiling

#86 - On 04/08/2009 at 11:02am by tipple

you sure it was by accident ? i mean maybe they wanted to let you know and they didnt know how to ... im not trying to be rude :$

#87 - On 04/08/2009 at 11:34am by Camelnaction

please tell me you called them out on it..

i would have had no other choice.. i would have gone inside, pretended everything was okay.. and when they started being nice, i'd take everything they said about me and turn it against them.. letting them know that i'd heard everything.

#88 - On 04/08/2009 at 12:19pm by kissothis

get new friends? if that happened to me, i wouldnt talk to them again.. i would call them and say im thrilled that you feel that way about me.

#89 - On 04/08/2009 at 9:51pm by sammylauren

get new friends!! like seriously if your friends are doing that to you dont talk to them anymore.. you should call them and tell them that you're thrilled that they feel that way about youu.

#90 - On 04/08/2009 at 9:53pm by sammylauren

yeahhh im on the get new friendss they arent worth shit ..

#91 - On 04/10/2009 at 12:05am by danceoramma24

#94 - On 04/10/2009 at 12:06am by danceoramma24

there's always that one person in the group that everyone hates. and if you disagree, well obviously you are that person.

shoulda walked in the restaurant and if they acted all cheery and loving, call those bitches out.

#95 - On 04/11/2009 at 10:59am by latuka

why would you rate this "you deserved that one"

#96 - On 04/12/2009 at 1:21am by isabella12195

and now. you know.

#97 - On 04/22/2009 at 5:25pm by ammarican

you call that friends? i call them bitches.

#98 - On 06/03/2009 at 8:26am by pooryou

lol next time your talking/fighting or they are just being annoying make a snappy comment referring to what they were saying. like quote some things they said and then see their reactions when they catch on.

#99 - On 08/02/2009 at 7:18am by xkaitlinwhitex

maybe one of them purposely called you so you could hear what your other 'friends' were saying.

#100 - On 08/17/2009 at 8:38pm by Mauskau

if i were you i wouldve turned around, went home and never talk to them again xxox

#101 - On 09/21/2009 at 8:58am by MLSxxox

yay for butt dialing.

#102 - On 10/04/2009 at 5:13pm by mekzikinz

Cool friends you've got there.
But the first thing I thouhy when I was reading this was that may be the one who called you did it on purpose.

#104 - On 01/30/2010 at 10:50am by mindcontrolify

Something like this happened to me... But all I heard was the pants russeling against the phone

#105 - On 02/09/2010 at 8:18pm by wasted0087
