Today, I woke up to an email confirming my membership to a dating site. Turns out my mother is as annoyed by my loveless life as I am. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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 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
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, a woman turned up uninvited at my house, ready for our first date. After some embarrassed investigating, it turns out my mother signed me up to Tinder and arranged a date, all without telling me, because she refuses to believe I prefer solitude over dating. FML
Today, my mother keeps nagging me to find a wife, settle down, and have kids, even though I have zero interest in any of those things. She refuses to understand that I’m perfectly content being completely on my own. She even signed me up to Tinder without my knowledge. 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 had a first date with a guy I met online. And his mom. FML
Today, my mom sent me a picture of a blank piece of paper, saying it was a drawing of all the people who wanted to date me. 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 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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

1 in 5 relationships start online these days. Unfortunately, 95% of these "relationships" can legally be called stalkings. Have fun!

Baustigt, I understand what you mean. Now be quiet and get back under my bed. No one gave you permission to come out.

Hilarious! Consider yourself lucky, I think my mother would try this if she saw it...

If you were annoyed about it, then why didn't you do anything about it before your mom decided to do something about it? I'm sorry but YDI for.not doing anything about it sooner.

Yes because all OP has to do, is go to the mall and say, "I'm lonely, want to love me?". Your logic sucks:/ simple as that. Sometimes things just don't work out.

I agree with nightowl, do you have any idea how hard it can be to find someone you're compatible with? Or do you just constantly have a significant other handed to you? How do you know this person hasn't tried? Your logic does suck.

Baustigt and Vasilisa - I love you both in a purely non-Platonic way. Please marry me. Just don't tell Mrs. Bastard. Or each other.

10 to 1 she doesn't give a crap for your loveless life, but she just wants grandchildren. Just a heads up.

Haha, my mom does a similar sort of thing all the time! Sometimes she is like "why don't you wear your earrings today...it makes you look more attractive". Or she forwards me emails about "10 things to do if you want to attract a guy".

So your mom knows your password to the email too, since with most confirmations you need to click a link in an email.

That's not ALL bad. If you meet the love of your life on the site, you'll have an interesting story to tell your kids. Just make sure your mom is paying for the membership! Good luck, OP. I hated the dating scene and I'm glad I'm married now so that I don't have to deal with it. Sending positive vibes your way. :)
