Today, my ex-boyfriend's attempt to win me back involved standing at the bottom of my apartment building with two airhorns, blasting them and shouting. And for some reason, singing "Sweet Caroline", even though that's not my name. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my boyfriend tried to whimsically serenade me by throwing rocks at my apartment window and singing. He got the wrong window. Another guy answered, and now he thinks I'm cheating on him. FML
Today, my ex got dumped by his girlfriend. Seeing my opportunity, I sent him a song I'd written for him, about how much I still love him. He sent it on to the girl who had just dumped him, claiming he had written it. They're now back together. FML
Today, my ex-boyfriend of over four years ago decided to turn up outside my house at 1 a.m., drunk off his ass, to confess his love for me. When I told him I'd moved on and am happily engaged, he cried on the grass for an hour, then tried to steal my cat. FML
Today, I broke up with my boyfriend. As I left his house and began to drive away, I see him chasing after my car barefoot. I stop and roll down the window, ready to listen to the speech he has prepared to win me over with. He takes a moment to catch his breath and says "I want my cellphone back". FML
Today, my drunk boyfriend decided to try to serenade me by throwing rocks at my window and singing a song about how much he loves me. This would have been extremely sweet if he would have gotten my window instead of my dad's. FML
Today, my ex-boyfriend, with whom I'm still madly in love, called me and begged me to come back to him. In shock, I asked, "Is this some kind of joke?" He giggled, said yes, and then promptly hung up. FML
Today, I wanted to rub my success in my ex's face to get her back for breaking my heart. I typed the perfect email, included every detail of opening my own business, buying my own home and cleverly intertwined insults. A few hours later, she replied, "That’s nice. Who’s this?" FML
Today, I woke up to the sound of my psycho ex trying to break down my apartment door. FML
Today, I was invited out to a date by my ex-boyfriend. He seemed really excited to reconnect and kept holding my hand and complimenting how I looked. Out of nowhere a girl runs up to him screaming. It was his current girlfriend, he was using me to make her jealous. FML
Today, I sent a text message to my boyfriend, saying, "Come over in an hour, I love you." An hour later, the doorbell rang. It was my ex, looking happy and still as smitten with me as before, with a bunch of roses. I'd got the wrong number. My ex and my boyfriend have the same name. FML

there are two scenarios which we all can conclude. one he cheated on her and wants her back OR she found someone else and dumped him. Either way, I am saying ( sorry fellas ) the guy could have put on a little more effort in the relationship to make it where he wouldn't be dumped. Perhaps not enough communication skills and trust between them or the relationship has gotten dull from the same routine. And it goes with all fellas, maybe we should use our hearts more and listen. I think if this guy listened to this girl and used his heart to completely earn the trust pu

it's the though that counts.

79, or they broke up because they weren't good together and he was drunk when he did this...

It is the thought that counts. And in a way I think it's kind of sweet. Well, ish. He tried... That's more than a lot of guys do. I give ten points for trying, minus three for bad planning.

-100 for using air horns. Seriously, am I the only person in the world who finds those things obscenely annoying? If the guy screwed up and wants to make amends, then he needs a serious adjustment in his strategy.

79- There are many, many, many more reasons for breakups than that, many of them situational. You can't assume that he wasn't listening to her; for all we know, he was too touchy-feely. I know that's not likely, but passing judgement based on possibility rather than knowledge is never the fair way to go.

that song can be used for any woman regardless of name :)

18, that someone obviously doesnt care enough to remember op's name
CanadianNarwhal 13
That says nothing other than he's desperate and seriously wants you back
SpicyDuck 22
No one wants desperate.

I agree... plus at least he's trying to win you back! I mean it could be worse, he could already have a new girl friend and I'm sure OP wouldn't like that much either
No_habla_espanol 11
I agree with 63. At least he tried! What if he wasn't playing the song because of the name, but because of the meaning? Ehh, whatever. He still tried lol.

Just call the cops on him or something.
armorf0r 7
never call the cops on a guy spilling his heart out, trying get a girl back.. That's ****** up man.
TuesdaySpades 0
I concur.
silversti 0
that's very ****** up, it's sometimes hard to let the truth sink in, all he needs is a nice "it's over" with a decent explanation
salvorican 24
Op could have nicely explained it.. Some guys just don't want to give up..
the_gabe254 0
I agree. Some people just don't listen, because some girls can be just as bad!!! I mean seriously bad. lol

he must really want you back, even if he's a little off track...
JacksonCampbell 9
Was that truly necessary? I found it quite elementary. You must be superior If you plan on being legendary. You are currently inferior. You mad, bro?

He may be off track, But she may want him back. Maybe his orgasmic skills in the sack, Make up for what his romantic skills lack.
JacksonCampbell 9
If she wanted him back, She would've taken him Instead of giving him a smack When he sang the hymn.

he sounds like such a winner to me...

Does the ellipsis signify obvious sarcasm?
