Today, while walking in the mall, I spotted my ex boyfriend with his friends. To make myself look less lonely, I put my iPhone up to my ear and started an imaginary conversation with my invisible boyfriend. As I passed him, my phone started ringing loudly. It was him calling. He knew I was faking. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I discovered I was at the same restaurant as my ex and his new girlfriend. Quickly, I picked up my mother's phone when she wasn't looking, and began to pretend to talk to a fake new boyfriend. Few seconds later, the waiter loudly asked me if I was done talking into the calculator. FML
Today, I pretended to be on the phone to avoid small talk with someone from my building. I spoke loudly into the phone while walking by them. My phone rang in the middle of my fake conversation. FML
Today, I was so lonely I called my stalker ex-boyfriend. He was too busy to talk. FML
Today, I butt-dialed my ex-boyfriend while venting to my best friend about how hot but emotionally unavailable he is. I realized this when there was a lull in the conversation and I heard his tinny little voice coming out of the phone, saying, "I can hear you." FML
Today, a guy who annoys me walked over. To avoid speaking to him, I pretended to be on the phone and he walked away. A few moments later, my phone rang. I looked around to see if he'd seen me. He had. He was the one calling me from down the hall. FML
Today, I had to go to the mall for a quick errand. While there one of my friends who works at a phone booth was there and I stayed for a little bit chatting with him. While chatting, a girl passed by. She was so pretty that I blurted out, "What a woman!" out loud. Turns out it was my ex. FML
Today, I felt left out by the fact that all my friends are getting married or have great relationships, and my boyfriend won't commit. I made a Facebook up and pretended to talk with this really cute guy I made up. Today, I found out that my boyfriend is gay when he started hitting on my made-up Facebook guy. FML
Today, I was at my cousin's house. We weren't spending time together because he was always texting. After a couple of minutes, I got jealous. I played a ringtone on my cell, and "answered" it. I had a whole conversation with nobody in an attempt to seem somewhat more popular than a 10-year-old. FML
Today, I pretended to be texting to avoid talking to an old classmate I saw at the grocery store. Unfortunately, my phone rang while I was “texting.” It was the classmate. I had no choice but to answer, while we were both standing 10 feet apart. FML
Today, while driving, I made a fake phone call with my fake boyfriend, making him sound amazing to my friends who were in the car with me. Until the red and blue flashing lights pulled up behind us. My fake boyfriend cost me $160 in real fines. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Honestly... your ex is awesome. That's the best thing he could have possibly done in that situation.

Which is why you switch the ringer off before pulling such stunts...

You didn't have to specifically mention you have an iPhone. Any other phone and the effect would have been the same. Showoff.

That's exactly what I was thinking I hate it when people specify they have iPhones.

Even if she WAS talking on her phone, and her ex-boyfriend didnt believe her, wouldn't she have had to look at the screen when he was beeping in? Because if you're talking on the phone, and someone else calls you, it beeps, you look who it is, and decide who is more important that you talk to.

She didn't actually call someone, she just had the phone up to her ear...

He knew you were faking? That's why he is your EX-boyfriend! From phone calls to orgasms, your acting sucks!

Nah, that's false logic. If he cared he would've texted you something cute and witty, if he wants to embarrass you he'll set your ringer off publicly. Also, This dude was her boyfriend for a while! Obviously he knew you pretty well, good on him. Id've high fived him xD

your iPhone huh? The image would have worked with any kind of phone. The iPhone makes you look especially dumb since there is a button on the side that turns the ringer off. Why didn't you use that first?

Pretty much every phone has a side button that turns the ringer off; and it's not like she knew he was gonna call, so she wouldn't have been prepared to push it before any sound came out anyway...

after years of hard work by women to become independent of men, along comes a generation of insecure little bitches like you who can't possibly imagine standing up on their own two feet, alone, and be fine with it. you, madam are a gigantic **** and I am glad your ex called you on your bullshit.

Amen. And this is coming from a man, BTW. Fear is failure.
