Today, I was rushed to the hospital because I was crying so hard I couldn't breathe. Why was I crying? My favorite anime character died. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, while I was working my shift at the store, my girlfriend appeared and asked to talk to me. Once we were alone, she burst into tears and started sobbing. Turns out someone's dad died in her favorite TV show and she wanted some comfort. FML
Today, I found myself crying my eyes out over my two favourite fictional characters' deaths. It happened over 6 years ago and has affected me more than real peoples' deaths. FML
Today, I was crying over my favorite artist dying (as I often do). I was home alone, watching his documentary/movie in my living room, and I started crying REALLY HARD. It was the loudest and hardest I've ever cried. Guess who showed up to the house? The cops. The neighbors thought I was dying. FML
Today, I cried so much I felt nauseous and almost puked. Why was I crying? I made up a hot, brooding, cold, and heartless guy who secretly cared about me, and who's super protective. Then I imagined him dying by being stabbed. I cried over a guy I made up in my head. FML
Today, I had red eyes from crying, and everyone assumed that my mom, who has been seriously ill, had died so they tried comforting me. It was quite embarrassing to have to tell them that it was because I'd just watched the last episode of season 4 of Veronica Mars. FML
Today, I cried harder than I have in years. I was babysitting, and watching Pokémon to pass the time. It was the episode where Ash, Dawn, and Brock on the show went their separate ways, and may never be together again. FML
Today, I saw an old friend while out and about. Since I don't leave the house very often, my friend was surprised to see me in person. He jokingly asked if someone was dying, and I cried in response. I was in fact going to the hospital to say goodbye to my grandma. FML
Today, I was crying because my cat died. My boyfriend cupped my face in his hands, looked me straight into the eyes and said, "I love seeing you cry." FML
Today, my youth pastor died and I was crying. My boss told me to dry my tears, because it was affecting my coworkers. Sorry I'm human and cry when someone I know dies. FML
Today, I was at a meeting. One of the other members decided to share that their cat had passed away recently. I got an uncontrollable nervous laugh, started crying because I was laughing so hard, and left the room while everyone watched in horror. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

That's the first and probably last dedicated patriotic anime fan I'll ever see. I mean, I would be sad if Ichigo died but, I wouldn't cry.

Anyway there is nothing wrong with crying, or experiencing other strong emotinos during works of fiction. That is completely normal. and usually a sign of a well-written story. But OP should take a close look at their psychological state and relationships if a ficitonal death affects her that strongly. It may be a sign of troubles that run deeper than just being a passionate anime fan.

This sound really familiar I've read this one before.

I feel your pain... I've cried pretty damn hard when my favorite characters die. (And they always seem to do so...) And to everyone freaking out about the fact that she was crying over an anime, CALM THE **** DOWN. Seriously... How would you like it if people were constantly terrorizing you just for the sole reason that you liked something that they deemed 'stupid' or 'a waste of time'? I'm guessing you wouldn't. So stop antagonizing the poor girl.

It's not so much the crying that people are mocking, crying at works of fiction is fine if it's a sad moment. The getting rushed to the hospital part is pathetic and deserves to be mocked. Way to waste hospital resources OP.

you guys are such idiots. just because you cry over anime doesn't mean you have no life. it's actually possible to become attached to a specific character in a show and know how to handle the "real world". and believe it or not, it's a lot less sad and pathetic than some people's real lives. so do us all a favor and get over yourselves.
