Today, my fiancée and I were selecting our wedding cake. The wedding is now off since I refused to buy her the "dream" wedding cake she wanted because it was chocolate. She called me childish and cheap. I'm highly allergic to chocolate. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my boyfriend gave me a fancy chocolate candy and I got angry at him for forgetting that I'm allergic to chocolate and threw the candy into the garbage disposal. Turns out, he had spent a ton of money getting a chocolatier to put an engagement ring inside the candy that I just destroyed. FML
Today, I went to the doctor, only to find out I can no longer eat chocolate, my favorite food. When I got home, my boyfriend took the chocolate cake I'd been eating from the fridge, sat down in front of me, and ate the whole thing without breaking eye contact. FML
Today, my fiancée called off our wedding out of the blue. After a long discussion about it, it turns out that last week I voiced an opinion about the wedding she didn’t agree with, and doesn’t want to spend her life married to someone who’s going to argue with her every five minutes. FML
Today, I'm getting married. A few months ago, I allowed my mother in-law to take care of catering. She begged to be a part of the wedding, so I gave her the caterer's number and order info. It appears that I will not be eating at my own wedding because she decided to order food I'm allergic to. FML
Today, my fiancé informed me he didn't want a regular wedding cake, he wants a Batman cake. I have nothing against this, except that he already decided the wedding theme would be Star Wars. Essentially, I'm marrying a child. FML
Today, I decided to ask my girlfriend of 3 years to marry me. I made brownies with walnuts and put an engagement ring into the brownie I gave her. Not only did she choke on the ring, but on the way to the emergency room, I find out she is highly allergic to walnuts. FML
Today, my fiancée called off our wedding at the last moment, because her neurotic sister thinks she's "too fat" to be the maid of honor, and says she needs several months to lose weight. So that's a few thousand dollars wasted. My fiancée says I'm "overreacting" and that I "just don't get it". FML
Today, my fiancé actually threatened to leave me if I didn't find a "real" wedding dress. I love the one I picked out, it fits me perfectly, and was well below my budget. He's upset because it's technically a bridesmaid dress. FML
Today, my mother in-law made dessert. It was a beautiful chocolate cake, chocolate cookies, and every other thing had chocolate in it. I'm deathly allergic to chocolate and she knows this. FML
Today, I bought a personalized cookie cake with "Will you go out with me?" for the girl I've liked for five months. When I showed her, she said no, but took the cake with her anyway. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

You just dodged a huge bullet there, dude.

I say good riddance. If she's going to break it off over a cake, your marriage wouldn't last long either

Some people get too emotional about meaningless crap like a cake. I can't see why anyone would press YDI.

Thats why, instead, I'm getting a pie for my wedding....the cake lies, the pie is honest

I like your style; Wedding Pie. Also - OP, as people have said, whether or not she knew about the allergy (which she should if you're marrying her) it's good you've got out now. Because even if it was just about the cake, then she doesn't sound like the kind of person you'd want to be marrying. If it wasn't about the cake, it's probably an even bigger issue.

Well now you see my cousin was allergic to gluten. So you know what they did?? One layer of the cake was gluten free. You didn't think to ask for a layer of the cake that WASN'T chocolate?? Or even buy an extra smaller cake?? I don't think you deserved it, but I'm not agreeing with you either, because yes she comes across as selfish, but you come across as stupid.

Hmm, I'm gonna disagree. It's possible he said, "Honey, can't we get one layer that isn't chocolate?" And then that counted as 'not getting her her dream cake' and she threw a fit. Edit: Oh shit, guy below me, now I want red velvet cake! It's the best.

With some severe allergies, kissing her after she ate it could set him off. I can't even breathe near chocolate. It can be pretty bad sometimes.

huh, I guess he really IS stupid for not wanting a layer on non chocolate, it doesn't even MATTER if he gets a little slice of chocolate in his plate, eats it, and needs a tube down his throat to breathe. Shut up, retard.

#53 makes a good point. My ex was highly allergic to peanut butter and all kinds of nuts. As a safety precaution, I couldn't have *anything* with nuts in it on days that I saw him, even though Reeses are my favorite candy. He even asked me to avoid Starbucks Coffee in case of cross-contamination. Not that the sacrifice wasn't worth it (at the time), but if the OP is similarly allergic and the bride's been chowing down on chocolate my guess is that wouldn't make for much of a wedding night.

Well now it's not like he'd be smart enough to distinguish between chocolate and something else now, would he? Retard.

FML, she never loved you if she did that to you. Find a better person to be the mother of your kids.

Don't marry her or give in just run! This would be the bitch that orders the cake anyways by calling the cake company and switching the cakes last minute and then smash the shit all in your face when it was time to feed each other! Thus killing you! And for all the woman out there that are getting hurt cause I called her a bitch.... I ONLY CALL THEM HOW I SEE THEM!! SO... **** Y'ALL!!! HOES.
