Today, I realized how bad my feelings of inadequacy compared to other women and jealousy are when I started thumbing down songs on Pandora simply because the cover art had a better looking woman than me on it. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I found out that the very good-looking woman who sings for one of my favorite bands is actually a guy. FML
Today, I finally realized that when my seemingly very judgmental fiancé makes negative comments about other women, it's actually just an excuse to keep ogling them. FML
Today, while I was on Spotify with smart shuffle enabled, it started playing a really stupid, but funny song I'd never heard in my life. I then looked at the cover and realized the song playing was AI-generated. I don't want to live on this planet anymore. FML
Today, I realized my friends were right about my obsession for my only son when I found myself genuinely jealous when I heard he recently got a new girlfriend. FML
Today, needing some new music, I logged on to YouTube and clicked "Like" on a few different tracks I enjoy, hoping to spark some good suggestions from the algorithm. My “Personal Mix” now consists of boring, generic techno remixes, with videos showing 100% half-naked women and fast cars. FML
Today, I realized just how pathetic my life is when I found myself fascinated by videos that a woman posts on YouTube of her removing ingrown hairs and zits from people’s private areas. FML
Today, I realized I’m so lonely that I actually got jealous while watching Shrek. FML
Today, I realised I like Britney Spears. FML
Today, I realized my self confidence is based on the amount of "likes" I have on my Facebook statuses. 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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Sounds like you should seek some sort of counseling.

After reading these comments, I think its ironic that I seen "Speak your mind, but please try and be respectful." at the bottom. -_- lol

I agree. You did not ask this to happen to you. I'm sorry that people made fun of you in school, as I know how that can feel. And I'm glad you have a boyfriend and loving family to support you. However, you DID post your story on a site full of trolls, and assholes. So... Anything said to you should be expected, even if it's not right on any level of moral sense. Having said that, I wish people were not such assholes all the time. But they are. So if you didn't want them to be, you shouldn't have posted.

how you view yourself greatly effects what you actually look like. start telling yourself you're pretty, even if you don't believe it at first, and you might believe it. once you believe it, your appearance will actually improve. it takes a while to work so don't get frustrated and give up.

Be who you are, and say what you feel, because those who mind, don't matter, and those who matter, don't mind.

Dr. Seuss FTW. For a man that wrote so many children's books, he sure came out with some insightful stuff.

Be honest, OP. Does being attractive automatically cause happiness? Will you ever be the world's most beautiful woman? You'll lose more by incessantly comparing yourself than you can possibly gain. Find yourself a counselor who specializes in reality therapy techniques, which would help greatly with your situation. Good luck! :)

OP - Sorry to hear about your problems, but I have a kind of relevant question for you. How do you get on Pandora living in Canada? Our laws made it so it was blocked back a few years ago...don't remember when exactly and it hasn't been accessible from a Canadian I.P since then (to my knowledge, I double checked just to be sure and It still says it's restricted to Canadian I.P addresses) I used the website quite frequently, and would like to know how you found a work around for this problem. -Svarsengel-

Actually Spotify allows you to play stations like Pandora if you can get that.
