Today, after spending months learning how to play the guitar and memorizing the music to my girlfriend's all-time favorite song, I performed it for her. Her response? "Well, you kind of ruined that song for me now." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, after practicing a song for my girlfriend on guitar all day, I called her over to my house to show it to her. After a long speech about how "this is for you," I played for about 3 seconds before I broke a string, which slapped her in her face. FML
Today, I was trying to impress a girl I like by showing off my guitar skills at a party. I'd hyped it up all night. When I finally started playing, I’d forgotten most of the chords and lyrics to the song, and ended up just strumming "Wonderwall" while humming off-key. She left halfway through the "performance." FML
Today, after an argument with my pianist girlfriend about how bad my favourite song would sound on the piano, she stormed out of the room crying, leaving behind a CD. It was the piano version of the song she'd made for me. FML
Today, being a music student, a professional orchestra performed a symphony that I wrote and dedicated to my girlfriend. It took months to compose and it the first and only time it was ever going to be played. My girlfriend forgot to come. FML
Today, I learned how to play "Happy Birthday" on the guitar, just to have my friend tell me that my voice sucks, and that I needed to stop immediately. FML
Today, my sister was playing a rock star in a play. When she got home, she told me she used one of my old guitars, because I told her it was ok. I said she could take one to practice on, not destroy on stage. FML
Today, my fiancée told me she was having a bad day while we were lying in bed. Just as she was about to fall asleep I thought it would be sweet if I sang her a song that her Mom sang to her when she was a child. Instead, I was told to shut the fuck up and that I sucked. FML
Today, my boyfriend finally played the new guitar I bought to replace the one he broke. He used a $1000 guitar to play me a moving song about my butt. FML
Today, I poured my heart out to my girlfriend with a serenade. After I finished, she told me she'd come over to tell me she'd found someone else and wanted to break up. FML
Today, I worked up the courage to confess my feelings to this girl I'm crazy about. I even wrote and recorded a song for her. Instead of listening to it, she gave it to her ex-boyfriend, who responded to my heartfelt words by headbutting me. FML

How did you figure you would improve on her all time favorite song?

He didn't..he just wanted to make her happy by playing it for her. I would be flattered if someone spent months learning my favorite song just to play it for me and anyone that wouldn't is ungrateful and dumb. But way to go trying to find a way that they deserved this. But you failed.

Why did that get so many negative comments? They were just asking a question that I would like to know the answer to too, and they were asking the OP, not you.

Look bro a girl who does not appreciate the time and practice one puts into something like that is not a girl worth your time. And you should get rid of her for someone that will appreciate you. tl;dr Dump ungrateful bitch and get one that appreciates you

Obviously she doesn't have an appreciation for a good ol' musical try. As a music teacher, I would probably be jumping for joy that you actually practiced and learned something. Most kids need to have your enthusiasm.

You deserve better than her if she was really ungrateful about it ... But maybe she was jealous that you can play it and she can't

Maybe music is just not your thing. Even though the attempt sound lovely.
