Awkward and Love: Love language

Love language

By upupandaway - This FML is from back in 2012 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, I spent two hours perfecting a really romantic text message to my boyfriend for our one year anniversary. I listed all the things I loved about him, and recalled some of our best times together. Two minutes after I sent it, he replied, "Huh?" FML

Self sabotage

Today, I spent an hour meticulously crafting the perfect text to ask my crush out. Just as I hit send, I realized I'd accidentally sent a screenshot of the conversation to my crush instead. Now they know my level of commitment: zero. FML

Today, I spent hours delicately writing out what seemed to be a beautiful poem to my girlfriend. After I sent it to her, I kept eyeing my phone to see her surprised message. No, my only response was "you may want to use a spellcheck." FML

Guilt trip

By annoyed - 11/05/2016 11:40 - Netherlands - Maastricht

Today, I sent my boyfriend a sweet text message, since he recently complained that I'm rarely romantic. Instead of being happy, he decided that since it's so out of character for me, I must be cheating on him and must have only sent it out of guilt. FML

Did you add a smiley face? That usually works, but works better is a card with a little puff of what ever perfume you wear during courteous... just saying...

Is your "boyfriend" what normal people call "prey?" Just because you've been stalking a dude for a full year, don't think he will suddenly bite on your lure. You should be prepared to keep after him for several more years to get what you richly deserve. Stay hungry!

Stop, just stop please, stop making yourself look stupid. You're like the homophobes that say "I'm not homophobic, some of my friends are gay". You're stupid and you have no clue but hey whatever makes you feel better than everyone else, huh? Sexist asshole.

wow, why would you text? seriously, is this what romance has come to these days? email isn't the best idea either, not for something so personal and intimate. I think a hand-written letter would have been great for something like this, and you wouldn't seem like a loser for spending 2 hours writing it.
