Today, I realized that my social life is so dead that the only thing I do that involves other people is read FML. I don't even participate in the comments. FML

Today, my social life consists of eavesdropping on my two coworkers chatting. FML

No friends, no problems

Today, I realized the only things I do are work and sleep. My only friends are coworkers who I make small talk with. I live alone so I’ve got nothing there either. I can’t remember the last time I felt happy, or spoke to someone. Everyday is just a blur. I have no hobbies, no goals. Getting older is so fun, right? FML

Lonely, so lonely

By Anonymous - 05/06/2021 11:59 - China - Shanghai

Today, I realised that my social anxiety, fear of people's judgment, social isolation, you name it, have got so bad that I literally have no interests. It got to such a point that I even have nothing to search up in the internet, so I just stare at an empty browser page wondering what should I do with my life. FML

Help this person out, please?

Today, I have no close friends, only "people I know and occasionally talk to." I have no idea how I got here, and how to re-socialize back. FML

Today, I wrote a submission to FML and I realized that I could be doing so much more with my life than this. I mean really, I have real life stuff to deal with, and I don't have the time to be reading these s*itposts, much less making my own. FML

Today, I enjoy reading this site and other people's suffering just to feel better about my own life. FML

The Crying Game

Today, I noticed that my weekend hobby is crying. I live in a city where I don't have a single friend or relative. FML

Today, I have wasted so much time reading comments on this page that FML comments have become my favorite bedtime stories. FML

The dreaded WhatsApp group

By Anonymous - 13/05/2023 18:00

Today, I confirmed just how excluded I am by my very few friends. My messages in the group chat were completely ignored, yet another person was answered by multiple people within minutes. At least solitude can't let me down. FML

Actually FML's comment sections are some of the nicer ones lol.. I know this was meant to be a joke but still. *proceeds to get downvoted and undermines entire comment*

The comment section has gotten a little more tame than in the past, I'll give it that.

You should jump in participate. If you’re not confident about what to say, telling me how wonderful I am is always considered a sign of keen wit and exquisite taste.

Okay, I'll tell you how wonderful you are: not wonderful at all.

She kind of is, actually. In fact, that's largely the issue at hand.

Well, if you like equal parts puns and puritanism, then you should fit in quite nicely.

It's great you took the first step in posting an FML, congratulations. I was a lurker for a years till I started to post comments and it's quite enjoyable. It's a shame it is not as active as it used to be. There used to be hundreds of people posting comments a couple years back.
