Today, I told my boyfriend that I loved him for the first time. The L-word is probably one of the only things I'm scared to say, so what did he do? He stared at me blankly before making a farting noise with his mouth and asking if he could go get Chicken Express for dinner. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my boyfriend told me he loves me. Instead of saying it back, I had a panic attack. FML
Today, I spontaneously poured my heart out for my boyfriend, telling him how much I love and adore him. He answered by leaning in close, saying, "Jolly good" in an affected accent, and burping loud and clear in my ear. FML
Today, my boyfriend of three years proposed to me. He brought me to our favorite restaurant and ordered expensive champagne. It was all very romantic, until he got on one knee and I farted out of surprise. Loudly. FML
Today, I told my boyfriend that I love him. He responded with, "That's nice. You know what I love? Chicken wings. Let's go get some." Apparently, he doesn't remember I'm a vegetarian either. FML
Today, while eating dinner with my boyfriend, I look up to see him staring at me, smiling. Hoping he wanted to say how lucky of a man he was who loved me deeply, I asked him what he was thinking. He replied, "You can't smell that yet? It was a noxious one." FML
Today, my boyfriend of over a year finally told me he loved me. This revelation was quickly followed by "at least, I think this is how people feel when they say that." FML
Today, my boyfriend proposed to me. While getting down on one knee, he farted. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me that he loved me for the first time in a way I'll never forget. In fact, his exact words were, "You're not the only one that I love." FML
Today, my boyfriend of six months said he wanted to take our relationship one step further. I thought he was going to ask me to move in. He meant he wanted to fart in front of me. FML
Today, I worked up the courage to tell my girlfriend that I love her. She made a face like she'd just sucked on a lemon and said, "Um... yay, I guess...?" and awkwardly left the room. FML

Whether its FYL or YDI depends on how long you've been dating

It might scare him even more than it does you. Try talking about it if you can and it should come out in the next few days :)

Sorry but your boyfriend sounds too immature. Dump him and move on. Someone like #12 who could express their feelings of not being ready to say it back is mature enough to handle something like that. Tell him to go fly a kite and play "army men" with his friends because that's how he is acting, like a 10 year old

... Really? It is a serious thing to most people and very hard to say or receive for some, me being one of those who it is hard for. It is certainly not grounds to break up with somebody you emotionless fool.

It sets the groundwork for the entire relationship. If you're not mature enough to at least express your lack of ability to acknowledge what was just said, and try to go "look over there, birdie!", then you shouldn't be in a relationship at all, because most of the time the immature way he (or she) handled the situation speaks volumes of where they're at in their life as a person and if they're actually looking for a committed long term relationship or just a short fling or not. You, and the OP's boyfriend, need to grow a pair and look at #12 as a healthy, mature human being.

And if you're too scared to say it back, at least say "Thank You" instead of changing the topic, and be open about discussing it instead of dismissing it. Most of us on here are mature adults, not 16 year old kids who are afraid of their shadow and what would happen if I ask her out on a date.

It's probably scary for him too, but that's still a inconsiderate reaction. If it really upsets you, then I suggest you talk to him about it.

Or he's just a guy and he's just hungry

Maybe he was scared to say it back so he changed the topic?

Yeah. Chicken express is the bomb!
