Today, I went shopping at a thrift store. I found a really cute top that fit me perfectly, so I bought it. Afterwards, I noticed the original tag was still on it. It read: "designed with your pregnancy in mind". It was a maternity top. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I finally found a cute dress that hugged my curves and hid my imperfections. I wore it to my friend's house, and was feeling pretty good about myself, until some pregnant woman walked into the room wearing the exact same thing. It was a maternity dress. FML
Today, I went to a thrift store and found heaps of clothes that I loved that fit me perfectly. Then I found a special distinctive dress. My dress. My dad had thrown away heaps of my clothes and I had to buy them all back. FML
Today, while shopping for clothes, I asked the assistant to recommend something for me. She took me to the maternity section. Thanks, but I'm not pregnant. FML
Today, I bought a new, expensive dress for a date. I left the tag on and hidden in hopes of returning it later. Someone saw it and ripped it off for me to "save me from embarrassment." FML
Today, I was carrying some bags out of a store, and my shirt had scooted up a little. I had no free hands, so I ignored it. A woman stopped me to tell me that bare midriffs are only attractive on skinny girls, "not fat ones." I'm 6 months pregnant. FML
Today, my mother asked a woman at the clothing store we go to all the time when her baby was due. Turns out the woman isn't pregnant. FML
Today, I went to Seattle with my mom to visit my pregnant sister, only to end up being dragged to a store to buy maternity clothes. The saleswoman apologized to me repeatedly for not having a lounge for the fathers, but congratulated me on the baby. I'm a girl. FML
Today, while shopping in the FML store I bought the "Retro Sport Tee," I didn't notice you are supposed to put your own "FML" on the shirt. Mine says "Today, Your Text Here. FML." FML
Today, I was at Target trying on swimsuits. I tried on a medium bottom and was so excited because it fit perfectly even though I've gained a few pounds. My self-esteem was at an all-time high until my mom told me I could never fit into a medium. I rechecked the tag. It was an extra large. FML
Today, I wore a beautiful new dress that I got for £5 only in a sale. I've been turning heads in it all day. When I got home, my mum pulled the massive red £5 tag off of the back. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Your fat

You used the wrong 'your'. It should be "You're fat", which means "You are fat", instead of 'Your fat' which is possessive; meaning that the fat belongs to the OP. I don't understand why people struggle so much with proper grammar. Incompetent retards.

There's smaller maternity tops. My sister is very thin (100lbs), and she's pregnant with twins right now and just wears regular clothes, but she does have some maternity wear that does fit her. All it is is just looser in the belly region, which is fine. Plus, it if was an empire waist, you should be fine. Don't listen to the shallow pricks.

getting sick of all these FML's where people are surprised or upset that they are fat. While some of them are good, like small children saying you're fat, this is not that case. How the hell did you not think you had a weight issue if you are shaped like you're pregnant???? I mean really? You don't own a scale or a mirror?

Dont worry my son is 15 months old and i still wear my maternity tops they are a bit longer which i like and fit my chest better and no one ever knows so good job on finding a cute shirt and have fun wearing it. And to yall (probably guys) saying shes fat get off the computer look in the mirror and run a lap or two if neccesary.

I wore a maternity shirt today, I have double D's and its hard to find shirts that fit me while still looking nice enough to go out in. Its ok. People come in all sizes.

Ugh, that's happened to me too. I found this shirt that was really long (I'm incredibly tall, so long stuff is hard to find) and when I got it home, I realized it was a maternity top. I just cut off the tag and never told anyone. PS, the people who are giving you shit for it-- it's never happened to them.

look who's all narrow minded... these grammar "flaws" come from internet culture and carelessness. grammatical rules are arbitrary anyway. Social trends sometimes mess with them. Get over it, social standards always change.
