Today, I took my girlfriend for what I thought would be a romantic horse-drawn carriage ride. We didn't expect the horse to die in the middle of it. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I went all out for a date with the girl of my dreams. I planned a romantic horse ride along a ridge down to a scenic valley for a picnic at sunset. Turns out she’s absolutely terrified of horses, and heights make her queasy. We ended up at the only restaurant nearby, McDonald’s. FML
Today, in the middle of a hot air balloon ride with my girlfriend, I asked her to marry me. She said no. The rest of the ride was the most awkward two hours of my life. FML
Today, I saw the girl that I've had a crush on forever riding her horse on the side of the road. She waved, and without thinking, I honked my horn in response. Her horse bucked her off. FML
Today, my first date in years cancelled on me because she has to "wash the horse's hair." The date was arranged for 9:30pm. FML
Today, I went horseback riding with this guy I like. I asked him to help me get on the horse. I slipped, and while trying to keep my balance, I kicked him in the face. FML
Today, my boyfriend took me to dinner. As we waited for our food he took my hand and said, "I think we should break up." When I got outside, my tire was flat. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I were driving around town in his car. To my surprise he took me out to lunch. As we were leaving, a girl walks up and asks if he had room for one more for a ride, sadly he only has two seats in his car. Guess who had to walk! FML
Today, I watched my fiancé ride off on my motorcycle with another girl. FML
Today, my fiancé and I decided to have a romantic rendezvous on the trampoline in our backyard. Or at least it was romantic, until I accidentally rolled off and all but crushed our dog. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I went for a ride in a paddle-boat. He decided it would be fun to paddle near the fountain. The fountain decided it would be fun to shower me, him and all of our things in filthy, stinking duck water. I had to ride the bus home by myself. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

It's a shame that when a guy finally takes the effort to arrange such a thing, that happends. if my boyfriend ever would do something like that I bet something simular would happen ?

The horse-drawn carriage system is very hard on the horse. Often the animals are mistreated or abused

Not to mention the injury to the hooves from constant walking on asphalt. Even with shoes, the strain on the hooves is horrific. If you're interested, look up "road founder." (There are different types of the same illness, caused by different things). It's amazing how a horse's weight is balanced on four (comparatively) small hooves. The hooves make the horse, if something is wrong with the hooves it's very bad.

I was going to say the same thing maybe the horse had been put threw so much stress and abuse and he just gave out during the date so **** hid life not OP's. I feel like that wouldn't even be romantic for me it would just be heartbreaking.

I know the guy that owns these horses, and the one we had was a 22 year old Clydesdale, he only worked him 3 days of the week, for no more than 4 hours. And the horse would neigh any time any other horse was being worked until they took him out, he loved what he did

i hope you contacted someone about this, horses dont go from pulling a cart to suddenly dead unless theyre VERY old and they shouldnt of been pulling a cart, or the horse wasnt looked after at all.
