Today, while babysitting, the little boy explained to me why I was single, reasons such as 'unattractive' and 'not the girlfriend type'. I cried. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, the 8 year old that I babysit every week told me that it was sad that I didn't have a boyfriend while he has a girlfriend. I got burned by a 3rd grader. FML
Today, my boyfriend of two years broke up with me because I was "letting myself go". When I told the little girl I babysit in the afternoons why I was so upset, she looked at me for a moment before saying, "Well, I definitely can't blame him." FML
Today, I was babysitting a boy who was 11 years old. He told me that he loved me and wanted to be my boyfriend. I told him that I think he is a really great kid but I'm 17 so it would never work out. He said okay. When his parents came home he told them that I hit him and started crying. FML
Today, the three-year-old I was babysitting asked me where my boyfriend was. I told her he was at his house. I'm twenty and single. I lied to a three year old to make myself look less pathetic. FML
Today, I was volunteering at the daycare in my area. When this one kid was leaving, he asked his mom, "Why is she so ugly?" FML
Today, a cute guy asked me if I was single. When I said yes, he said "Yeah, you look like the type", and walked away. FML
Today, I was babysitting a five year-old boy. Somehow the topic of relationships came up, and he asked me if I had a boyfriend. When I told him that I was single, he got all excited and asked if he could be my boyfriend. It would have been cute… except he was the first guy to ever ask me out. I'm 18. FML
Today, the 6 year old girl I was babysitting asked me, "Why are you so ugly? Are you an alien? Because aliens are about as ugly as you are." FML
Today, my little cousin, who just got a boyfriend, found out I've been single my whole life. She asked, "Is it because you're really ugly and awkward?" Yes. Yes, it is. FML
Today, I was working at the daycare. As I left with my boyfriend, a kid came up to us and said that my boyfriend could do way better. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

=| no need to cry! He's just a kid, he doesn't understand adult attraction.

I love that this country is so blackhearted that 188 assholes think someone deserves this kind of comment. In a choice between "I agree your life sucks" and " you totally deserve it" (neither of which negates if the kid was simply speaking a harsh truth), they pile on the misery. In the spirit of your responses, let's hope that 188 people find out someone they actually do care about either can't stand them or gets cancer.

I guess the world isn't full of lame carebears who want to make everyone feel special and carry them through life with false hopes and dreams of being something they are not. This OP does show low self esteem for taking this to heart, and stuff. They can get over it and work on themselves if they have a problem. So, they deserve it if they keep it up.

YDI because this is not the type of coversation you should be having with a child you're babysitting. Clearly, he made a powerplay and he won. Next time you ask him to do something, and he starts to drag you into a conversation like this, don't be surprised, because making you cry makes you forget what you asked him to do.

Today, I made this girl cry because I said she's unatractive and not the girlfriend type. WIN!

In "The Emperor's New Clothes," it wasn't an adult who blurted out the obvious truth. OK, OP, you are fugly. I'm inferring that the conversation started because you are having no luck with guys your age. What the boy said indicates that your career in pedophilia is doomed from the start. Start trolling the nursing homes. It's your last chance at romance with a heterosexual, living human being. If that fails, come back and we'll discuss the merits of lesbianism, ********** and necrophilia.

The little kid doesn't hold the key to the truth of beauty. Hell he's probably still in the "girls are yucky" stage. FYL but grow a backbone!

bahahha. now that is funny. were you so upset because a kid was telling you this or because it was true.

YDI for getting offended by a child. As many have said, you shouldn't have been discussing your relationship status with a child you are babysitting. It should have never gotten to a point where advice/thoughts on your relationship were coming from a kid who isn't even old enough to take care of himself yet. Ridiculous.
