Today, after getting an expensive haircut, I showed it to my boyfriend. Instead of saying, "Wow, those bangs look great on you" he said, "Wow, you look really good when you don't show your forehead." FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I cut my bangs. When I asked my boyfriend if he liked it he said, "It's like I'm dating a new girl, this way I won't get bored with you." FML
Today, I was at the hairdresser's getting a trim. The lady doing my hair commented on how beautiful and luscious my hair was, which made me feel really good. I later overheard her telling her colleague that hair as nice as mine was wasted on someone with a face like mine. FML
Today, I was excited about showing off my new haircut. All my friends thought it looked really good and it made me look older. What did my boyfriend think? He said I look like a little girl and he was afraid to kiss me in public because he didn't want someone to think he was a pedophile. FML
Today, I tried a new hairstyle to impress a guy I like. I was pretty confident, until he took one look at me and said, "Uh... why's there an onion on your head?" So much for that. FML
Today, my bartender noticed my new haircut before my live-in boyfriend did. FML
Today, I had my hair done for the first time in 3 years. I loved it. My boyfriend told me I look like his ex. FML
Today, I showed my new haircut to my friends. One of them said, "Wow, it’s brave to try something different." I didn’t realize that "brave" was code for "bad." FML
Today, I went to get a haircut. I have a pretty bad case of dandruff, so whenever I get one, a lot of it shows. My hairstylist called to her nearby friend twice, then looked at my hair and said, "Blech" under her breath. I got glares when I walked out. FML
Today, I cut my own hair. It looks great. Absolutely professional. From the front, that is. FML
Today, my boyfriend gushed for several minutes about how amazing it is that I suddenly look hot when he takes his glasses off. FML

OP, is your forehead really a fivehead?

It's okay, OP. I have a fivehead too. It's pretty brutal. Having blunt, all-covering bangs is the only escape...*Tear*

I call my fivehead, a "Betty Page forehead". She had a fivehead too and was mega hot, so it makes me feel better!

Men don't have the same perspective of the world as women have. it's your opportunity to educate your partner on how you like to be communicated with. He deserves credit for being in the sane ball park. I do agree that he needs to understand the difference between a back-handed complement and a complement, which is why yls!

Its not that "men don't have the same perspective of the world as women do." (which honestly has absolutely nothing with what this FML is about) It's just than men, in fact, people in general are not mind readers, and don't know exactly what people want to hear. This sort of thing happens all the time, it's not always in a boyfriend/girlfriend, wife/husband situation, and it's not always a male oriented thing.
