Today, I bought a rather unique shirt for my boyfriend, planning to give it to him for Christmas. He showed up wearing the same shirt. This isn't the first time this has happened. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I wore my boyfriend's favorite shirt to surprise him and show him how sexy I look. He made me take it off and pay the bill for dry cleaner. FML
Today, my boyfriend gave me a surprise gift. I was so excited until I opened it. It was the same exact sweater I bought for him last month, but in my size. He said, “I knew you liked it, so I got one for you too!” He didn’t remember that I already own one. FML
Today, my husband came home with a Christmas gift from a coworker. It's the same thing I got him. FML
Today, I saw my boyfriend for the first time in a while. When he came over we realized that we had not only gotten the same haircut, but we were also wearing the same sweater. We are a matching old couple at 17. FML
Today, I told my boyfriend I was getting him the “best surprise ever” for our anniversary. It turns out that we'd had the exact same idea, and bought each other the same pair of matching socks with each other's faces on them. I guess we both got the same damn ad in our Instagram feeds. FML
Today, my boyfriend decided to give me my Christmas present early because he's going to his grandparents' house for Christmas and won't see me. I was excited, until I unwrapped a sweater that I left there a month ago. FML
Today, my boyfriend was wearing a new shirt he had bought over the weekend. It was really cute and I always borrow his shirts so I asked to borrow his new one. He replied with, "Okay but please don't stretch this one." FML
Today, my girlfriend gave me her ex-boyfriend's hoodie as a gift. FML
Today, I wrapped my boyfriend's Christmas presents for him, because he was too lazy to do it himself. This included my own present. FML
Today, after I searched for three months and found the coolest jacket and was stoked, my fiancé and our guy friend both ordered the same jacket so we can all match. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I had kind of the reverse of this with my brothers.. they both were spending the summer at my grandma's house.. they found this grim reaper shirt and thought it would make me SOOO jealous, so they both bought one. They came home wearing them and I was like "hey I have that shirt".. they were so mad

On the bright side it at least means you know his tastes.

"oh uh. Gee thanks. I'll just put this in my 'spares' closet."

I think it would be a bit of a bummer to get something that you already have; but I actually like having back-ups of the clothes that I like. Sometimes I purposely buy 2 of the same thing if I like it enough just to have a back-up.

Reminds me of that one laundry soap commercial. "I love you. That's why I bought six of you, for when you start to fade."

#3, try rotating your device. Judging by your comment, you read #2, and it looked like it cut off randomly. It's actually a glitch in the app that occasionally affects text rendering; it can be temporarily remedied by rotating to landscape view. *removes deerstalker cap*

what if he knows what you're getting him and goes and buys the same thing just try and annoy you?

And there you were thinking there were no downsides to dating a magician bored of card tricks.

I feel your pain. I can never surprise my Dad with a collectible from one of his favourite movies without him going to the shops and buying it without me knowing. Now I just ask him.

Hey, at least you know what he likes! I bet he really appreciates the thought :)

Sounds like you need gift ideas that aren't clothes.

Cutest couple I ever knew did this all the time. They were just on the same wave length. Best bet is finding a source for shirts he doesn't know about.

If that happens consistently, make it a rule that you both don't buy new stuff for x weeks before Christmas.

You guys are meant for each other.
