Today, I was in the car with my husband complaining about the way I look. His response, "Babe, if I cared about the way you looked I wouldnt have married you." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I told my boyfriend that I didn't feel like he loved me. His response? "Why else would I be with you? Your looks?" He was serious. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I were out shopping. As he was trying on shirts, I told him that the particular shirt he was wearing looked ugly. He turned around, sighed, and said "You think? Well, your face is ugly, but you don't see me complaining about it." He was serious. FML
Today, I asked my husband if he thought I was pretty. He replied "compared to what?" He was serious. FML
Today, I was talking to my boyfriend, feeling pretty low. I said something along the lines of, "You like me even when I look like shit." He replied, "Ah, that's just how you naturally look." FML
Today, I noticed my husband was acting moody, and I asked him what was wrong. He replied that he didn't know, so trying to lighten the mood, I facetiously said, "It's 'cause you're stuck with me, isn't it?" He nodded, trundled off, and hasn't shown his face since. FML
Today, after losing twenty pounds to please my husband, the only comment I received was, "At least now only your personality sucks." FML
Today, my boyfriend compared me to an unattractive actress. When I said it was sort of messed up to say that to me since she's not pretty, he said, "She's not as bad as you." FML
Today, I was complaining about the weather when my fiancé looked at me and said, "Can I ask a favor? Can you stop moaning and complaining and bitching about every single little thing that doesn't go your way?" He continued on for a good five minutes detailing how much I complain. He's a dead man. FML
Today, I was walking along the street and passed a young couple. Over my shoulder I heard the girl say to her boyfriend, "Would you still love me if I looked like her?" FML
Today, my fiancé and I had a fight because he wouldn't let me get what I wanted to eat, even though it was my money. He said, "It's way too many calories. I'm supposed to help you lose weight." When I pointed out that I had given up a month ago, he looked at me and said, "Yeah, I can tell." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Maybe he was trying to tell you he loved you the way you are. Men aren't always great with words, y'know.

How is this an FML?

It's your fault for trying to get him to say that you're pretty and what not. Stop seeking attention.

Ouch, wrong wording on his part. What he meant to say was that he is not some shallow asshole and didn't marry you because of you having the perfect look but because you have a great personality along with being pretty.

You're ******* lucky to even be married to a good guy. FHL for having a bitchy wife, and YDI for fishing for compliments.

YDI for fishing for a compliment. Don't ask the question if you don't want to hear the honest answer - and then having the nerve to get upset at HIM for his answer. I hate that shit. Besides, it looks like he actually was trying to pay you a compliment that you've got other things going for you other than looks. Maybe he's a Skatalites fan and likes that song If You Wanna Be Happy For the Rest of Your Life....

But the story isn't reversed gender. For you to assume they would react in such a way, you make yourself just as bad as the people you accuse them of becoming. And I don't necessarily agree that we would jump to insult the OP if the gender situation was reversed. I think the OP's partner messed up his words either way you look at it.

OP = idiot. Nuff said. :p

Actually, I think the OP would still be blamed even if the genders were reversed. I do respect what you are saying, and I certainly agree that the OP's husband should have phrased that better. But many of the responses above seem to consent to the adage that women are whiny bitches. Assuming (ah, such a dangerous word) that those commentors didn't need this particular experience to come to that conclusion, I have to agree that either way the woman in the situation would have been slandered. And now that we've mentioned the "tone" of this site and some of the "medieval" ways of thinking, that brings up something else entirely. To be honest, it seems to me that either way, people on this site enjoy being able to slander other people simply because at the end of the day they can still remain anonymous. I'm not just talking about this FML, but all of them in general. Oftentimes people don't even try to understand one another. I like to think it's maybe because they're too young or inexperienced to be able to think past themselves, but who knows. Though I guess that's changing the subject.
