Today, my husband told me he was going to search from store to store in order to find my birthday gift. What was he really doing? His girlfriend. FML
Collection
Black Friday
70% off something you didn't need, a stampede and a cart that crashes at checkout. Thanks, Black Friday.
Same thing different taste
Today, I went to the store to get Valentine's Day gifts to decorate my boyfriend's and my new apartment. He was there shopping with his wife. FML
Today, it's my birthday. I worked late, so I was looking forward to spending a quiet evening with my husband. When he suggested we go grocery shopping, I got excited thinking he had organized a surprise party or something. He actually just took me grocery shopping. FML
Moment of self-realization
Today, I caught my fiance lying about being at work. Furious, I started breaking his things, demanding to know what skank he'd been sneaking around with. He gave me a stack of receipts, saying he'd been Christmas shopping. He's not cheating, just getting me everything I wanted. God, I'm a psycho. FML
Who? Where?
Today, my husband bought me a beautiful pair of earrings for my birthday, to match the necklace he'd spent months searching for online the previous year. What necklace? He gave me a watch he found at Walmart last year. I wonder who the lucky girl with the necklace is. FML
Today, I decided to go through my husband's phone to make sure I invited everyone to the surprise party I was planning for him. There were a few I had missed so I called to let them know about it. The last number I called was his girlfriend. FML
Running man
Today, my husband ran in to get something, shouted that he “had to go, I’ll call you later, bye” then ran out. At no point did he notice the wrapped present, his favourite meal and beer, and me naked on the living room carpet waiting to celebrate his birthday. I still don’t know where he is. FML
Seriously?
Today, my husband got home on my birthday and told me he went overboard and bought a real expensive gift for his favourite girl. He then turned round and gave the real expensive gift to the girl in question, his 3 year-old niece. It’s not even her birthday. I got fuck all. FML
What could've been
Today, I got to spend the entire day shopping for lingerie with the man of my dreams. He bought everything I'd ever wanted and more! Too bad it was for another woman. FML
Bad omen
Today, my husband said he was going to get errands. According to his job’s Instagram page which I follow, he was actually at his work Christmas formal. He never invited me. That’s not all. I also found his wedding band in the bathroom sink. Very close to the drain. FML
Awkward
Today, I found out what it's like to have your boyfriend's mom find your hidden stash of condoms in your car, then spend the next two hours shopping with her. Alone. FML

Happy birthday. maybe he was testing out a woman to bring home as your gift. Surprise!

No. Just no. This kind of situation isn't exactly something you joke about. Cheating in a marriage, or any relationship for that matter, is a serious deal.
MrConcise 35
No, it *is* something to joke about. Having a sense of humor is good in bad situations, it can keep you smiling when you feel like frowning. It's not something to make bad jokes about, though.

is it me, or does no one understand the concept of sarcasm.
R3TROxLOV3 32
We understand sarcasm, your comment was just a very bad example of it.

Well I feel like treating a living human being as an object you would "give" to someone else is not necessarily vey funny considering the awful human trafficking problems the world is experiencing

Maybe THAT is the gift... for some wierd reason?! I blame your screening process really. After all you chose him for a husband. Dirtbags will be dirtbags, but dont act surprised when a dirtbag does what a dirtbag does... Just an honest opinion!

How was she supposed to know he was a dirtbag that would cheat on her before marrying him though? Of course she will act surprised, she IS surprised. I bet OP wouldn't have married him if she knew.

That always drives me crazy! How can you possibly turn that around on her? The whole reason people can get away with cheating is because the one being cheated on does /not/ expect it! Also, I don't give a damn if their sex-life/marriage/happiness is in the ground. He could easily ask for a divorce and never have cheated in the first place. It's never the way to go.

Really??? The worst kind of dirtbags are the ones that don't let on that they're dirtbags!
stargirl_95 24
Dirtbags don't walk around with "I'm a dirtbag" stamped on their forehead. You only discover that they are when they do something terrible and many are quite skilled at keeping up the nice guy facade for a long time. I really hate this trend of blaming women for unwillingly ending up with douchebags instead of blaming the people they're with for being douchebags.

Thinking it's okay to blame the woman then to have the audacity to say "I'm just giving an honest opinion." Grrrrrr I'm actually seeing red!

Birthday three-some?

No.

Bums like that should be stuck in boot camp and sent to war. Do people have no respect for marriage or their partners anymore? He shouldn't be cheating and the girlfriend shouldn't be messing with a married man!
Jghaugland 6
That's a bit extreme dude. Seriously? Sent to war for wanting a more active sex life?
R3TROxLOV3 32
33, while what 23 said was extreme and incredibly stupid, if a man wants a more active sex life, he needs to talk to his wife about increasing the amount of sex they have. There is absolutely no excuse for his deciding to branch outside of the marriage, and have sex with other women. If he wanted to have sex with other people, he never should've gotten married. When you get married, you vow to remain faithful. You're promising that person that you want to enter into a monogamous relationship with them. Unless the couple specifically talks about having an open marriage, and being able to have sex with anyone they want to, the participants of the marriage need to remain faithful.

#33 You would also be assuming that he doesn't already have an active sex life with his wife...you don't know if that's true or not. Some people cheat regardless of whether they are getting sex at home. You know what they say about assuming...

weddings and marriages are a thing of the past.

72, stop before you hurt itself. Marriage is a beautiful thing. Society just ruined it is all.
Cass_x 22
Wow wtf. Happy birthday anyway :/ you should ask him for birthday sex, and lock him outside when he's fully naked. Also make sure he can't come inside anymore.. And make a public announcement about him being a dirty cheater. You deserve way better than this.
Bondhi 0
Yeah, because responding to an adult sitation like a highschool kid would make it all better. (Rolls eyes)
Cass_x 22
Well, all-knowing creature, what would you do then? Just let it happen? Get no revenge at all? Suuuuure, smh
Bondhi 0
Revenge is for people too stupid to move on and focus on having a happy life. Speaking from experience, yeah, I'd leave, but revenge? No. Maybe you watch too much TV, that's not how adults in the real world should handle bad experiences.

You can serve him divorce papers for his birthday.
