Today, I sent out a text saying "Smile! You're beautiful and don't let anyone tell you otherwise." to most of my contacts. I got one reply, from my best friend, saying, "Are you fucking stupid?" FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Today, I had a major falling out with my best friend. Angry, I sent a short text message to him explaining how I felt. I soon noticed I'd accidentally texted "I'm going to fucking kill you, asshole." to my boss instead. I'm still waiting on a reply. FML
Depressing
Today, I received a text saying, "I don't think we should be friends anymore. You're terribly depressing and you make everyone unhappy" followed by, "Oops, wrong person!" and then by, "Sorry, it really is for you". FML
Today, I texted my girlfriend a long, heartfelt message this morning. Her response? "What do you need? Or is this even really you?" FML
Here for you
Today, my best friend texted me and told me she broke up with her boyfriend. Trying to be supportive, I sent a long message about how he never deserved her and that I was there for her if she needed someone to vent to. She replied, "Are you high?" FML
Crossed wires
Today, I accidentally texted "Haha, what a fucking weirdo!" to the person I was talking about. Their reply? "At least I’m not dumb enough of a cunt to send texts to the wrong person." FML
Today, my girlfriend accused me of not having any friends. So I sent out a mass text saying "Hey, what's up?" to prove her wrong. I didn't get any replies. FML
Today, feeling festive, I sent everyone on my phone's contact list a holiday message. Almost everyone replied back "who's this?" FML
Today, I sent a group text round to my friends asking if they wanted to hang out sometime. One of my friends thought this was aimed directly at her and confessed her love for me. FML
My big face
Today, I took a selfie and I looked creepy in it, so I sent it to a friend thinking it would be funny. He just said, "Dude, that's what you look like. I don't get it." FML
Today, my day began with a "Good morning, beautiful." and ended with a "Maybe someone would love you if you were pretty." FML

That's written in the girls bathroom at my school. I don't want to be told I'm beautiful while peeing.

Those texts ARE really annoying, but I think what you did is really sweet. It just shows that there are good people left in this world. There's nothing wrong with being positive and trying to make others feel better about themselves..just try not to do it through a mass text next time. ;)

Cynics, please take the exit on your left. It's not welcome on this ride. Thanks for trying!

Sorry dude, but YDI. When people send me shit like that or when people act like that around me I feel like I'm talking to a ******* Barbie doll. You know, how she's constantly smiling and everything is ******* amazing and happy and OVERLY positive? I'm not really a negative person, but jeez! Calm that shit down a little

It amazes me and makes me sick frankly just how many people said this poor girl deserved it. What is wrong with you? She is trying to shine a little beam of light into someone's day and no matter what you think everything you say matters and can make or break someones day. Think about that next time you pick on someone instead of telling them they look nice.

You think the only options are picking on someone or complimenting them? How about not saying anything until you actually have something to say, instead of spamming everyone you know with mass texts?

I hate forwarded messages like that, but I always take the time to delete them instead of replying to the sender to say how stupid they are. Your "best friend" is a dick.

So alot of the people commenting on this clearly have low self esteems or are horrible to their friends. Silly bitchs wtf is wrong with OP being a good friend?

Sending crappy uninspired spam indiscriminately is "being a good friend"? Really?
Pazu_fml 10
Yeah, YDI. Let me list the reasons. - No one likes spam. - Motivational quotes are meaningless if they aren't relevant to a specific person or situation. Sending the same message to everyone you know is pretty much just you trying to make yourself feel like a good friend with the absolute minimal effort. - If you sent it to everyone at once with no consideration for their differing schedules, chances are that you interrupted a lot of people during work/school/sleeping/etc.

How is this spam? She was not selling anything, advertising a website, or anything like that. It's just a simple little message reminding people to smile and love themselves. Which, by the way, more people should do. Most people these days are depressed, pessimistic, it's horrible. Look at how many people drink, smoke, use drugs all the time, have one-night stands, eat until their stomachs burst, etc... these are usually not the acts of happy people. These are the actions of people trying to block out a life they hate. So, OP, props to you. I think a simple message like this is great. Also, btw, I don't get why people are so concerned over spam. Don't like it? Delete it or don't read it. Takes all of 1 second.

Yes! Thank you! As for the rest of you get off your, "I am too good for a nice basic message throne." Besides, apparently some missed that she said "most" of her contacts not "all". It might be close to it but is not in fact all. It's one thing if she sends these types of texts all the time and completely another if she does it every now and then. *flies away with her cape on*

It's because the messages are sent to so many people. When I get one of those, I think "oh, okay, so I have as much value as these 14 other people. Great". Even though they're sent with the best intentions, mass texts or emails are generally annoying and pointless, in my opinion.

Maybe she had recently experienced a terrible tragedy and thought you were being condescending.
