Today, I got my phone fixed and the lady who was working on it somehow resent all the old text messages in my outbox. One was to my ex saying, "I love you." FML

Wild Nights Out
Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I sent the texts "I love and miss you babe ;)" and "Shit wrong person" to my ex just so he would think I have a life. FML
Today, I accidentally said, "Bye, love you," to a co-worker as I clocked out. Before I made it home, I had six missed calls and a long text from my co-worker professing her love to me. FML
Today, while at church, I received a text from my girlfriend, saying, "It's not working. We're over." Not only was my phone not on silent mode, I was sitting directly beside my now ex-girlfriend. FML
Today, I got a text from a number I didn’t recognize that said, "I miss you." Assuming it was my mom and her new phone, I replied, "Miss you too, love you!" Turns out it was my new boss, checking to see if I’d be able to work an extra shift. Even though it was her text that was badly worded, I'm now known as the person who declared her love to the boss. FML
Today, I got overly excited because someone texted me, but then realized that moments before, I had sent myself a message. FML
Today, I was at AT&T getting my phone fixed. At one point, the salesman said, "You should see this." It was a text message from some girl apologizing for sleeping with my boyfriend for the past four months, and telling me that they were moving him out of our apartment. FML
Today, I was deleting old contacts on WhatsApp of people I no longer talk to. Later, when I was very tired and was about to go to bed, I sent a text to my boyfriend saying love you and goodnight. It turns out it was actually my ex. Awkward! FML
Today, I woke up, thinking it was going to be a good day. However, when I looked at my phone, I saw that my girlfriend had sent me an obscene number of angry messages, which are still coming in, because I forgot to say goodnight to her last night. FML
Today, I sent everyone a text on my phone book saying, "Happy Star Wars Day!!! May the Fourth be with you!!" I forgot to uncheck my ex-girlfriend's number. She texted back, "One of the many reasons I broke up with you." FML
Today, I typed a vulnerable “I miss you” text to my ex at 1 a.m., stared at it, and meant to delete it. Instead I hit send… to our old family group chat, which still had his mother and my aunt in it. My phone blew up with dumb sympathy, a single eggplant emoji from my cousin, and a lecture from his mom. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

An ex texting you doesn't mean they're hoping to give it another try. I'm friends with most of my exes and in fact text a few of them frequently. Is it possible he enjoys talking to you and maybe even considers you a friend?

Unless his girlfriend read the message and bitched back to you, I don't see the FML here. Get over yourself, if your ex calls for an explanation don't answer it, you have the right to ignore him. You don't owe anyone an explanation for your actions.

WOW, surely the earth has stopped spinning. What a crisis. Just tell him that was meant for another kid.

I've never heard of someone mistakenly resending ALL their text messages from a problematic phone. Even so, I assume that "I love you" isn't the only thing said to your ex. If they possess the brain power equal or greater to that of a second grader I'm sure they can put two and two together to figure out what happened. However, I assume that you got drunk one night or had a momentary lapse of brain power and decided to tell your ex you still cared and when better minds prevailed, this was the only excuse you could muster. ... For Shame!

This is why we delete messages from our phone every now and again. It's called 'maintainance.'
