Today, I switched cell phone carriers and got the plan where you can call or text any five people for free. The employee asked for my five, I could only come up with one, my mom. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I received my new cell phone and activated my account. As part of the package, I get to choose five numbers that I can call without using any minutes. I could still only think of three numbers I call regularly: my parent's house, my mom's cell and my ex's cell. FML
Today, my dad let me use his phone. Five minutes later, he had my mom call it because he thought he'd lost it. FML
Today, my phone rang for the first time in four days. It was my mom. She dialed the wrong number. FML
Today, my mom learned how to use the text messaging on her smartphone. I've received 37 already, and she calls after every single one to make sure I understood her. FML
Today, I needed to call my mom to get some info so I dialled the number on my work phone. Not 2 seconds after, my cellphone rang. I got super pissed off because I hate when people call me on my cell at work. It was me. I'd dialled my own number. FML
Today, I called my friend in Australia to have a nice long chat, what I did not know was that my dad had removed my international calling plan, I talked to my friend for 5 hours, and ran up a huge phone bill, which I have to take out of the money I saved up to go see her. FML
Today, I sent my mom a text to tell her about my promotion at work. She responded with, "Who is this?" It turns out that she deleted my number, because I "never call." FML
Today, my mom was on the phone while we went grocery shopping. Apparently, her phone call was more important because she just left me stranded in the store. FML
Today, I was with my mom and my boyfriend at lunch. My phone rings and my mom excitedly says "You have friends!" As I'm about to answer it, she pulls out her phone from under the table and says "Kidding, it's just me." My boyfriend starts cracking up, and they exchange a high five. FML
Today, after applying at over 30 businesses over the past 6 months, I have had not one single call. I later find out that I was using my old phone number on the applications, and my secondary phone was my mom's. She thought they were telemarketers. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Please, I go through times in my life where the only people I talk to are my parents. Friends are highly overrated. Luckily I'm at a point where I'm building friendships so I actually need a phone. FYL OP, FYL.

u honestly cant come up with ANY? i could come with five right now: Teagan, Taylor, Lina, Ryan, Ethan..... im 13

Exactly, you ARE 13. Your world consists of frenemies and people you passionately love one day and passionately hate the next. Just because you can name five people doesn't mean you are capable of mostly quality friendships right now, it just means you are 13 and can name five people who are like totally ur bffs this month, or if you're really "consistent", this school year.

hey now when I was 12 I had at least 8 friends who were my best friends for 4-5 years

I'm still close with most of the people I was friends with when I was 13. I'm engaged to one, two others are my best friends. I was a pretty anti-social kid, and only had 5 friends. I'm still in touch with the fourth one, and the last one? Well, she was a bitch and when she openly admitted to just hanging out with me cause my dad would buy her things, I stopped speaking with her. I also asked my dad to stop buying things for my friends.

If you're talking about the T-mobile plan, they don't usually program in your 5 for you. You can do it yourself on the phone. You should have just said "I don't know their numbers of the top of my head" and been done with it. I know there's another company who does it too, so maybe they do it for you. And don't sweat it. I don't have all 5 of mine filled in, either.

Idc if this FML is fake, i think it's cute :) And I don't think I could come up with 5 people either, because I barely talk to the same 5 people a day!

Yeah the op is using t-mobile because my friend uses t-mobile and she got 5 people to add to her favorites so she can get calls/text messages for free but she adds people by herself

FYL you dont know anyone else you call?

T-Mobile doesn't have the 5-favorite plans anymore. The only thing close would be AT&T's A-list, but even then it's not the same. Not to mention the fact that you add your favorites yourself, as everyone else has been saying. Fake, period.
