Today, I was at dinner with my boyfriend and his family. We were talking about relationships, and I commented on how online dating was the dumbest thing ever. His mom and step-dad went on to tell me how they had met through an online dating service. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I called my mom to see how she was doing. She quickly hijacked the conversation and said that she's signed me up for a dating site, because she feels bad that I can't find a decent man. I've been dating my boyfriend for seven months, and she's seen me with him multiple times. FML
Today, I had a first date with a guy I met online. And his mom. FML
Today, I was invited by my boyfriend's parents for dinner at their house. The dinner went well I thought, until I was getting ready to leave. Before I could make it out the front door, I could hear them discussing their disappointment that their son would ever consider someone like me. FML
Today, I met a really nice couple at a bar. We talked and the conversation eventually drifted towards online dating. I casually commented that hooking up through the internet was sad and pathetic. Turns out they met on Myspace. FML
Today, I asked my mom about signing up for an online dating site. She took one look at me and said, "Why get rejected online when you can just go outside for the same?" FML
Today, I overheard my mother Skyping with her new "boyfriend" about the $1,000 she just sent him. She barely knew what internet dating was three weeks ago. FML
Today, I went on a first date with a guy I really like. He brought up that there was a person staring at us from a nearby table. That person was my mom. FML
Today, my boyfriend met my dad for the first time. The first thing he said to him was, "You're an idiot for dating my daughter." FML
Today, I found my dad on a dating website looking for younger girls. My mother and father are "happily" married, well according to her Facebook profile. FML
Today, I signed up for a dating site and used a photo of my mother and me at a wedding. Everyone stops responding when they find out they're talking to me and not her. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I think online dating is kinda unsafe so I wouldn't use it.. But your choice is your choice guys! That must've been embarrassing though!

Actually, I just mis-read. I thought it was 'mom and dad'. So maybe I'm wrong.

A better FML would be: "Today, as I basically copied this FML off a million other places on this website, I realized how lonely and possibly gay I am. FML." You would get bonus points for honesty as well.

You make yourself sound like a homophobic. Other than that, well said.

What has this world come to? Can we not go outside and meet people, must the Internet do that for us too? What's next, the Internet will now wipe your ass fr you! I'm so relieved I have absolutley no responsibilities left, I don't even need to leave the house! What will I do for food!? oh wait, you can grocery shop online now too :)

I have met some of my best friends online. I don't have that option in real life, because the Internet allows me to meet people all over the world...

Dating online is pretty dumb I must admit. It gets boring really fast unless you plan on meeting in real life.

while it could be said that you only expressed your opinion, you did so in a rather offending and stupid manner. i bet my life that i can find more than a hundred things much more stupid than online dating. statistics show that over 8 million couples have met online and are in a long distance relationship. it probably would have been better to have said that you are against the concept of meeting relationship prospects online than to have tagged it as "the dumbest thing ever", indirectly insulting the 8 million internet couples in the United States alone. advice? choose your choice of words before they escape your huge mouth. and do so wisely.
