Today, my boyfriend confessed that he hates horror films. Our relationship was born out of our 'love' for horror films. I have endured 3 years of watching films that absolutely terrify me only to find out he doesn't like them either. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my boyfriend convinced me to face my fear of horror movies by promising to hold my hand through the entire flick. He fell asleep 10 minutes into it, farting and snoring in his sleep, whilst I was paralysed by fear. FML
Today, my boyfriend is completely obsessed with zombie and horror movies. I don’t care what he watches, the only problem is the big wuss has horrible thrashing nightmares. Last night he thrashed so hard, he elbowed me in the face. I have a big swollen purple knot right on my forehead. FML
Today, my boyfriend said we needed to talk. He called me cruel, cold and heartless and that it’s making him reconsider what kind of future we may have together. All because I hate sappy movies and don’t cry on the scenes where the dogs die. FML
Today, I sat through 9 gruelling hours of Star Wars with my boyfriend. I hate those movies with a passion and frankly would rather get a pap smear from Wolverine than watch them. Afterwards, he dumped me for yawning, saying that I didn’t take a “serious” interest in his favorite things. FML
Today, my boyfriend was complaining about how we never see the movies he wants to see. So I took him to the movies, and he picked which one. Then he fell asleep. FML
Today, I asked my boyfriend why he never seems to have his own opinion, always agrees with me, and does whatever I want. That’s when he admitted he’s scared of me and is terrified of saying or doing anything I won’t like. I have no idea what I did to scare him this badly. FML
Today, I asked a girl I like to the movies. Wanting her to lean on me and stay in my arms during the movie, I chose a horror film. I screamed like a pussy the whole time. FML
Today, my husband was planning on getting me my favorite movie as an anniversary present; I ended up buying it. He had to give me the money and leave because he is severely arachnophobic and couldn't even pick up the box. I have to hide the movie for fear of it being destroyed. Again. FML
Today, after years in a relationship I realized that my partner does not like the music I listen to, the food I cook, the pictures I take, the way I dress. The only thing she likes is when I take her out to eat. FML
Today, I went to see Paranormal Activity 2 with my boyfriend. In hopes of him putting his arm around me or holding my hand, I told him that I was very scared and pretended to cry a little. He told me to be quiet because I was ruining the movie for him. Then he moved seats. FML

You should've been honest with each other from the beginning.

& this is why you don't start any kind of relationship with lies... just be honest! If they're worth it, they like you for you & not just your interests.

Would someone kindly explain to me what do horror films do that makes the normal audience feel terror after watching such films?

That is horrible communication... And a foundation of lies... You should really rethink your relationship before it goes any further trust me. I'm married.

This is one of the most hilarious FML's I have ever read. All the more so because you totally deserve it for lying in the first place. Lol. What has me wondering is why he finally decided to admit the truth. Are his feelings for you fading? Has he reached the point where he doesn't love you enough to endure the torture anymore? Hmmm?!

my boyfriend keeps buying dill flavoured chips, and only today, after 7 months of relationship, I openly told him that I can't stand this flavour. it's not that bad of a lie. I think you, guys, are cute for keeping up with this lie for three years just to make each other happy.

***Oops set too soon You didn't even like. Hopefully now you can look back on the event and laugh but why would you lie to begin with. Unless he only dates girls that like those type of chips?

That's actually quite silly in a cute way. Just laugh about it and move on.

Not really a big deal, but three years is pretty damn long.
