Today, I was wearing a new $500 dress on a crowded train. I looked great and I could feel the eyes on me. A cute guy then offered me his seat, only boosting my confidence more until he said "for you and the baby," pointing at a bump in my dress. I'm not pregnant and wasted $500. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I entered the crowded bus and one man sitting in the priority seat glanced at me. Upon seeing my protruding tummy, he quickly offered me his seat. I took the seat. I am not pregnant. FML
Today, I finally found a cute dress that hugged my curves and hid my imperfections. I wore it to my friend's house, and was feeling pretty good about myself, until some pregnant woman walked into the room wearing the exact same thing. It was a maternity dress. FML
Today, as I stepped into a subway car, I noticed some free seats and began walking towards them. A group of girls standing nearby looked at me, then at the seats, and made a run for them. They then high-fived, presumably as congratulations for sitting down before the pregnant lady could. FML
Today, I saw a woman who I thought was pregnant on the bus. Trying to be nice, I offered her my seat and congratulated her. She wasn't pregnant, just holding a large bag of groceries. The entire bus heard me and the death glare she gave could’ve turned me to stone. FML
Today, while taking the subway home, a woman offered me her seat. I smiled and declined. She said she insisted because of my "pregnancy." I was too ashamed to say I wasn't pregnant, so I just took the seat. FML
Today, a pregnant woman got on the bus. There were no free seats, so I stood up to give her mine. An obese man pushed past her, waddled over, and oozed into my seat. I said it was for the pregnant lady. He called me a "sexist bitch" and claimed he needed it more. FML
Today, a businessman in his forties tackled me to the ground in an attempt to take my seat on a crowded train. When that didn't work, he called me a fat bitch and gave me the finger. The seat was given up for me because I'm seven months pregnant. FML
Today, I wore a beautiful new dress that I got for £5 only in a sale. I've been turning heads in it all day. When I got home, my mum pulled the massive red £5 tag off of the back. FML
Today, I bought an expensive dress because it was me and my boyfriend's one year anniversary, and he was taking me somewhere nice. When he saw me in the dress, he looked at me, laughed and said, "Seriously, what are you wearing?" FML
Today, I walked into work feeling confident in my new outfit. It wasn’t until lunchtime that a colleague pointed out the price tag hanging from my skirt. I’d been flaunting my ass's price all morning. FML

Ahhh, dw I've been in a smimilar situation before, I'm not a large person but I was particularly bloated on that particular day and some old woman was talking to me and said "So you're going to be a mom soon?" I was like NO I'M JUST BLOATED GODDAMMIT. Enjoy your dress! Or return it if it's not flattering.

how do you guys not get this? and wtf is a pregnancy dress? clearly, she was wearing a tight dress and has a not-completely-inhumanly-flat stomach as most women do, and in that dress it appeared she had a slight baby bulge. she is not pregnant and now feels she wasted 500 dollars by buying a dress she looks pregnant in. however, she wasted the 500 dollars by buying one single dress. seriously that's like 2 round trip tickets to disney world.

A pregnancy dress is a dress you wear . . . When you're pregnant. Simple. And I'm pretty sure everyone understands what you're talking about. But I guess some people thought she also could have meant that she accidentally spent $500 on a pregnancy dress when she isn't actually pregnant. I doubt that's it, though.

why is everyone hating on her for buying an expensive dress? maybe she's a super-successful woman with a good career and wanted to treat herself to something nice. there's no harm in that! sorry about the guy on the train love, i think we all have one of those days.

There's an unspoken limit on that. Rich or not, $500 for a dress is BULLSHIT.

YOU DESERVE IT. If you're spending that much on clothes, make sure it's actually FLATTERING, lolol

That blows...seriously. But spending 500 bucks on a dress does too. I hope it was for some really special occasion....I don't even think I'll be spending that much on my wedding dress! try buying cheaper clothes, then if you need to do a little DIY tailoring, you won't feel bad for cutting into designer duds.

just because one guy thinks you looked pregnant doesn't mean you wasted $500. idiot.
