Today, I was at a party with my crush. The collar on his shirt was sticking up so I fixed it for him. He gave me a hug and said, "Aww you're so good to me. You're like my mother. You can be my college mother." I got mother-zoned. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my boyfriend laid his head on my bare chest and said, "You're like my mother." FML
Today, I sat next to my crush in class in a very loose, low-hanging shirt in the front (my mother had made me wear it, I didn't want to), and I felt so giddy because he kept staring at me in shock. No, not because I'm so beautiful, but because my boobs were hanging out. FML
Today, I went shopping with my Mom. I ran into my crush. A school dance is soon and he WAS just about to ask something but my mom glanced over and yelled "TAMPONS OR PADS, SWEETIE?!" He then changed his question to "Haha, so which?" And before I could say a word, my mother answered for me. FML
Today, my best friend told me he had a crush on someone in my house. I got excited, but he told me it was my mom. FML
Today, I went to a party and met a guy who was super charming. We hit it off, and he seemed really into me. After talking for a while, he leaned in for a kiss, and I thought, "This is it!" But instead of a kiss, he just sniffed my hair, then said, "Wow, you smell just like my mom!" FML
Today, I went out for coffee with my sister and my crush. I spent the majority of the date flirting with my crush, and when he dropped us off at home, I told him I had fun on our date. He looked at me surprised and said he'd thought I'd tagged along on his date with my sister. FML
Today, my brother had his fiancée over to meet the whole family. We were having a great time with her, and my mother gushed to her that she was like the daughter she never had. I'm her daughter. FML
Today, after a busy afternoon taking care of the kids, I was feeling really down about only being a mom these days, and I was hoping my husband would make me feel better when he got off work. In the middle of cuddling, he called me "mom." FML
Today, I was flirting with this guy that had been forced to be my lab partner for class. He was really funny and attractive, too. In the middle of our conversation he said "You're so cute! You remind me of my boyfriend!" FML
Today, I told my crush of two years that I love him. He responded with an, "Aww, I'm sorry." and a pity hug. FML

If he's anything like Oedipus, you may have a chance.

I think it's safe to say you have no chance.

Talk to him, maybe?

That, to me, sounds like trying to be nice while shutting her down.. Unless there is a huge age disparity.

I hope you left her there... that bitch can take a cab, and then later pick up her shit from the front lawn

I heard somewhere that guys tend to go for girls with traits that remind them of their mothers so you may still be in with a chance.

Give him free food? Maybe he will come around. Guys always like food and usually girls who remind them of Mom. Hope for the best!

That's when you pull him in for a passionate kiss then whisper in his ear "would your mother do that?". If he says yes than you have bigger issues.

Follow me, don't follow me I've got my spine, I've got my orange crush ***Sorry, every time I read an FML that says the word "crush" in it (which is a lot!) I get this REM song stuck in my mind. :P

That could be a hole different connotation to "motherfu..."
