Today, I woke up to a brand new password on my phone that only my wife knows. Apparently, she thinks I've been looking at my phone more than I've been talking to her lately. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I asked my wife for her computer password because my computer crashed. After minutes of begging her, she finally told me. Turns out that her password happens to be her ex's name. FML
Today, I remember that I changed my phone lock password when I was still half asleep this morning, but I don't remember what I changed it to. FML
Today, I finally password-protected my phone, to protect it from my friends' favorite game: stealing it and sending stupid texts, and hijacking my Facebook. They quickly found a new game. My phone is now locked for 24 hours due to too many attempts to guess the password. FML
Today, my girlfriend yelled at me for changing my phone's password, like I thought she would try to access my phone without telling me. When I pointed out she could only know I changed it by trying to unlock it behind my back, she took the sandwich I'd just made and fed it to the dog. FML
Today, when my husband asked me what the password to my new computer is, I told him it was the month and year of our marriage. He couldn't figure out the password. FML
Today, I told my husband that we should write down all our passwords so we don't forget them. Later, after he'd left, I pulled out his password sheet to do a little snooping, only to learn that he'd written them in some sort of bizarre cipher. What's he hiding? FML
Today, I was playing with my phone and turned it on lock mode. I changed my lock code a few months ago, so that no one would be able to guess it. Turns out I can't guess it either. FML
Today, my wife, being very considerate, bought me a new phone for my birthday. That would be fine and dandy if cops didn't then enter my house and say I stole it. Turns out my wife paid $900 from MY credit card to the person who stole the phone. FML
Today, I finally cracked the password on my husband's email account. I don't know which is worse: finding out your husband is cheating on you with several people, or finding his password includes his ex-girlfriend's name. FML
Today, I was logging into my work computer. My account became locked due to the many failed attempts at typing my password. Thinking I was alone, I said, “Fuck this shit” while dragging the keyboard off my desk. Turns out my supervisor was in the other room. I'd forgotten I'd changed my password the other day. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Whatever happened to couples who talk and get through difficult times together? Everyone is so sue and "dump him/her" happy. It's sad.

I'm surrounded by people like you all the time and I can't stand it. It's a phone, not the elixir of life. Spend some quality time with your poor wife! No one should be second-best to a phone.

"People like you" meaning "people who at least one person personally believes uses their phone too much". Unless you're saying you know the OP personally?
Levvy 22
Uh oh. Looks like that ruffled some feathers. I guess some folks here do actually know the OP personally and whether or not he actually does overuse his phone. Would you care to share your experiences?

If she wants conversation then she should initiate it. Especially if it's that serious that she locks your phone. If you really aren't communicating well make it a point to avoid your phone while she is around. Ask her how her day is or something :/

I don't see how you deserve this. if the bitch has a problem, she can talk to you like an adult not touch your property.

I'd be pissed. Payback.

If you have been guilty of that accusation, you need to take a break from the phone and start romancing the living sweet bees out of her while showing you can be apart of reality instead of off in the distance inside technology OP. If you are not guilty, you may want to have a serious discussion with your wife and let her know that accusation is far from the truth she believes about you being glued to the phone. Hopefully she will give you the password or else you may have to try and see if technical support can help you with a reset. I hope everything works out for you in the end.

Now, I'm curious what the FML community would think if the roles were reversed. Would you guys still have the same opinion? Or would the husband just be an immature prick? I think if he really hasn't been giving her enough attention, he needs to drop the phone off a bridge and go back to a flip phone, he's not ready for it yet. But if the wife is just being an attention freak ( and before anyone says anything, there is a certain level of attention you can expect from a SO, it is not infinite ) she needs to adjust her attitude, that isn't a mature way ( it is effective though ) to handle this.

I agree, loads of the FMLs on here would get such a different reaction if the genders were swapped.
Levvy 22
I notice FML assumes that in any dispute between two people of different sexes, whatever is wrong is the male's fault. This is only one of many, many, many, MANY examples. The most egregious are cases of men having serious violence committed against them and being told they deserve it. Because men are big tough dumb brutes who can "take it", as opposed to women who are little helpless delicate china dolls who can't, I guess.

I don't know about the community as a whole, but I can see girls being phone-addicts more easily than I can see guys. Personally I'd think the idiot on the phone needs to lose phone privileges until they learn when it is ok to be on it and when it is not, regardless of gender.

In my opinion this FML is a bit vague. We don't really know if he really hasn't been paying attention to the wife or if she is just crazy.
Levvy 22
But why let that stand in the way of concluding someone's guilt and giving them a nice holier-than-thou lecture?

Don't really know enough to vote. On the one hand, if OP's been spending all his time doing pointless things on his phone instead paying his wife the attention she deserves then he deserves it. But on the other hand, I guess he might have a lot of work to do which involves being on his phone, or she might just be overreacting.
