Today, my ex-boyfriend sent me an email that read, "How to lose 25lbs". I was eating a large slice of pie when I opened the email. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my boyfriend sent me a text that said, "I can't be seen with you anymore. You're too fat." FML
Today, I was online looking up ways to lose weight, get thinner and be healthier, all the while eating a slab of brownie that was half the size of my head. FML
Today, I ran into my ex-boyfriend who dumped me after 2 1/2 years because I got fat. The last two years I've lost 68 lbs, am happier and couldn't wait to shove that in his face. So, of course the first time he sees me I'm alone, I'm pushing a shopping cart full of ice cream for a party later. FML
Today, I'm getting over a nasty breakup, and decided to treat myself and order a pizza online. After waiting 45 minutes, I checked the site. Turns out, I'd forgotten to change the address on the site. I sent my ex a free pizza. FML
Today, I sent my sister a text about how fat I was becoming and looking as disgusting as my ex-husband. When I checked to see if she had received it I saw that I had accidentally sent it to my ex-father in law. FML
Today, my boyfriend used a laser pointer to show me where I needed to lose weight. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I started our diet. After a long day of being held accountable for every calorie I ate, I went home to sneak a snack. My boyfriend came over to surprise me, and found me on the couch shoveling left-over Indian food into my mouth. FML
Today, after my ex helped me drop over a hundred pounds, I broke up with him because I looked and felt so much better, and knew I could do better. Turns out he was the only thing keeping me slim, as I've put back on over twenty pounds. I asked him to take me back and he told me to fuck off. FML
Today, my girlfriend dumped me because I've recently become serious about getting fit, and have lost nearly 84 pounds. Apparently, when I was fat, I made her look smaller in comparison. When I got slimmer, she insisted I either gain the weight back or she'd leave. So she did. FML
Today, my boyfriend of 5 years dumped me, after he intentionally made me fat so that I wouldn't leave him. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Tell him to **** right off. He's irrelevant. Enjoy that pie OP! :)

Why is your ex still emailing you? I'd be blocking him on all parts.

What? Ever heard of being on good terms with your ex?

15, If he is mean enough to send something like that to her I doubt there are any good terms left.

Were you driving and then accidentally dropped it?

'How to Be a Nice Person' 1. Is your name *insert ex's name*? 2. If the answer is yes, give up. This method doesn't work on assholes. honestly OP, if you're healthy and a nice person, i don't see a problem bc noone should have to feel like their self-worth is solely determined by their size. no matter who tells you otherwise

There's a reason he sent you that.
sturschaedel 27
Yeah, there is a reason: he is an asshole.
superspooky 13
He's her ex, so it really doesn't matter what he thinks of her anymore.
team_hale 11
Or that she needs to lose weight.

Yes it wasn't very nice of him, but you have just proved his point! I'm sick of hearing fat people (of which I'm one) saying "It's not our fault." Who are you trying to fool?

We don't even know if op is overweight, eating pie is no indication. And her ex obviously wanted to hurt her. What's an easy target? Weight. Whether she has an issue with weight or not, it's a touchy subject. Even if she is chubby or something it doesn't indicate she's unhealthy. And some people DO naturally have weight issues and some diseases cause it.

did you know that normal people eat pie too?

This is the second pie related FML this week. Damnit, now I want pie...

Send him one that says, "How to Grow your Penis Size FAST!"
Badkarma4u 17
That only works if the guy has a ssmall dick or own a ruler. if he has a big dick and he knows it you'll just look dumb.

If it affected you then maybe you're not happy with your weight. Otherwise you wouldn't have given a ****. Change your diet, make sure you're eating less calories per day than what you need to maintain your body weight (there are plenty of calculators on the internet you can use for free) and start exercising and within a few months you'll have the body you're happy with.

The majority of women I know have insecurities involving their weight, no matter what size they are. I know maybe two or three people who wouldn't be upset at all if told they're too fat; personally, I'd probably tell anyone who sent me an article like that to go **** themselves, but I'd still secretly think about their comments and look at myself differently for a few days.
DoomedGemini 38
Yeah, as someone who's always been in the healthy weight or under, I believed I WAS fat until recent years. Why? I was told I was a lot by my brother. Weight is an easy target to make someone feel like shit.

ydi for obviously eating too much snacks. "large slice". why?
jDCrackpot 7
Just because someone overindulges once doesn't mean they always eat too much. OP's ex just sounds like the kind of guy who aims for an easy target, I don't know many women who wouldn't be at least a little upset if someone told them they should lose weight, especially if they were just being a spiteful, bitter ********.

I ate a large slice of chocolate cake today because I ran 14 km (approx. 8,7 miles) and because I WANTED TO. As long as you don't do it every day indulging your sweet tooth is absolutely fine.
