Today, my boyfriend and I arrived at our pre-paid hotel for a romantic evening. When we went to sign in, they had no reservation for us, however they did yesterday. The payment is non-refundable. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, and for the past few weeks, I've been dating a new guy. Things were going well, we had planned a romantic weekend getaway, but when we got to the hotel, we found out that our reservation had been cancelled. The hotel was fully booked, and we had to spend the night in separate rooms at a sketchy motel. FML
Today, I'd booked a table at a restaurant for my parents’ anniversary but when we arrived, the staff couldn’t find the reservation. I checked my confirmation email and realized I’d booked it for the following evening. We did find a less classy restaurant nearby, but can't get my deposit back from the other place. FML
Today, I found out that my fiancé's parents are refusing to pay for a honeymoon, because they "didn't have one, so neither will we", meaning they won't pay for a single thing for our wedding. FML
Today, I told my boyfriend I wouldn't be able to get any time off work to go to Mexico with him, and that we'd have to get our tickets refunded, and reschedule. He said not to bother, and that he already had someone else in mind to take with him. FML
Today, my fiancé forgot his wallet. He realized this once we were 5 hours away from home, before checking into a hotel, that had reservations under his name. FML
Today, I received a coupon for a special offer including flights and accommodation for the honeymoon destination that my fiancé and I are keen on. Yesterday, I paid the full price for the flight tickets and hotel deposit for the honeymoon. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I went to a restaurant so I could apply for a job, and we decided to eat there. After we finished, I went to start the car. When we got home, I asked him how much the bill came to. Apparently he didn't pay. I had already given them my completed application. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I had a lovely dinner date. Our waitress was really sweet, so we talked about leaving her a big tip. When we got home, we discovered we both thought the other person had left it. FML
Today, my date mugged me, just minutes after I paid our bill at the restaurant. FML
Today, my husband told me to look for a honeymoon resort, since we had to cancel it last year. I looked everything up and got all excited. Just when I asked him for payment information, he said "April Fools!" April Fools was two days ago. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Show them your reservation/receipt. If it's an error on their part, they have to at the very least reimburse you! Don't go down without a fight!

I've been working in hotels for over a decade as a night auditor. I couldn't even guess how many times I've had to turn away walk-ins because the only vacant rooms were reserved for people that never showed up. I don't feel bad about charging those no-shows because the vacant rooms could have been easily occupied otherwise. If you want the privilege of having a room guaranteed for you then you have to pay the consequences of a no-show. And if you made the reservation online, whether directly through the hotel's website or through a third party like priceline.com or hotels.com then it's your own damn fault for choosing the wrong date. The only way this would have been the hotel's fault is if they overbooked (usually a rarity these days) for the day you scheduled your reservation or if you called it into the hotel directly and they entered the wrong date (also relatively uncommon although it does happen). This is definitely, absolutely, with out a single shred of doubt a YFDI.
