Love, Pranks and Break-ups: No future

No future

Today, I had no idea my girlfriend had such a poor sense of humour until I pranked her by hiding a plastic spider in the kitchen, and she broke up with me and asked me to move out. She’s not even arachnophobic, so I don’t get her extreme reaction. FML

Same thing different taste

They're not real

Today, my girlfriend, KNOWING I have severe arachnophobia, changed the wallpapers on my phone and tablet to pictures of tarantulas, all because she's mad at me. And she won't change it back. FML

Today, as part of our prank war, my girlfriend found a hairy tarantula picture and stuck it on the wall. I hadn't yet told her I'm arachnophobic, and when I saw it I passed out and hit my head hard enough to need an ambulance. She decided she's won the war and I don't get a say in the matter. FML

Today, my girlfriend broke up with me. Because she farted, and thought it was "too awkward". FML

Today, I broke up with my girlfriend because I felt unappreciated. She found it appropriate to sarcastically say, "Oh no, how will I ever be able to open my jars?" FML

The opposite of a good idea

Today, I wanted to prank my girlfriend by giving her a jump scare. Right before I tried to scare her in an empty parking lot, she turned towards me, pepper-sprayed me in the eyes and kicked me in the balls. When she realized it was me, she called me an asshole and dumped on the spot and drove away. FML

Today, my girlfriend broke up with me, all because whenever I laugh I say "lol." FML

Today, my girlfriend broke up with me because of something I said 2 years ago, as a joke. I guess she took a while to get it. FML

Today, I broke up with my girlfriend. She was so angry, she stabbed me in the hand with a plastic fork. FML

Today, my girlfriend left me. Knowing that I am a germaphobe, she took all of my cleaning supplies and spread mud and trash everywhere. FML

How d'you like them apples?

Today, after my girlfriend played a prank on me a few days ago, I thought she’d be a good sport about me playing one back. Turns out she’s not a good sport. I’m now single, with black bruises on my ribs. I think one might even be broken. FML

seems like there’s something missing here…

You don’t know her life story. It’s entirely possible that this reminded her of something triggering to her and made it a much bigger issue to her than it was to you. Also it just… wasn’t really a good prank anyway. A good prank is supposed to ens with everybody laughing, and freaking somebody out with a fake spider is unlikely to cause that.

Pranks are malicious acts.

OP, just what the hell good was going to come from that? You don’t prank the people you love.

the hell is everyone so judgemental about? it was one joke, and based on the fml probably the first ever. you're ALL over reacting. pranks are just light hearted fun. any of you ever try uh, having a loved one?
