Today, I wanted to text my girlfriend but lately we'd been at a loss for things to talk about. I thought, "Come on, she's your girlfriend, what's the worst that could happen." One hour and twenty two minutes later, I was single. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I texted my girlfriend, saying how I hated my job, I felt trapped, and that I was wasting my time working there. A few minutes later, she answered, "That's how I feel about our relationship." FML
Today, my phone died while I was on the phone with my girlfriend. When I finally got a charger, I saw a text message from her. I'm now single. FML
Today, was trying to have an adult conversation with my fiancée but she's always on her phone, so I sent her a text message instead. Relationship goals. FML
Today, I had been trying to text my girlfriend all day, but no reply. After a while, I became worried so I called. She picked up and said, "Can't talk, busy." Not even a minute later, my best friend says to me, "Dude, tell your girlfriend to leave me alone. She's been texting me all day." FML
Today, my girlfriend started a conversation with "I don't want to break up" and ended the conversation with "I think I'd be better off alone." So I guess I'm now single. I think. FML
Today, my girlfriend hasn't spoken to me in a week, so I gave her a call. No reply. I texted her, and got a text back saying: "Sorry, dude. Better luck next time!" FML
Today, I sent a text to the girl I've been getting to know online, text which was meant for my best friend. It was a screenshot of my her Instagram page with the caption, "I can't believe I'm actually going to talk to her today." FML
Today, I texted my girlfriend a long heartfelt loving message for our 2-year anniversary. Her reply was just "K." FML
Today, the girl I love made me text my best friend how much she loved him. This because her phone died. I was at the movies with her on our date. FML
Today, after a long 16 hour shift, I was milliseconds from sleep when my girlfriend said she "wants to talk". I'm now writing this from the couch. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Jeez dude. What did you send her?

That's terrible, I'm so sorry. There's nothing worse than a one sided love, though. Take heart in knowing there was nothing left to say to each other, and I hope you find someone who you'll never stop having exciting things to say to.

#9, what fairy tale are you living in and how do I move there?

#9 I feel the same way in real life, but when texting that feeling isn't as strong, and you can't just be silent because then you're not texting. When you're with them in real life, you can be silent and just enjoy the presence of your significant other, but you can't quite do that while texting which is why people often have difficulty finding things to text about.

If she breaks up with you for not texting, you're better off single.

Breaks up with him for NOT texting? Uhh, I think you understood this FML wrong.

Someone being your special other doesn't mean you can offend them. If that's what you've done.

That doesn't sound one-sided to me. Sounds like they mutually felt the relationship had dried and it was time to pack up and move on.

True 5, and op at least you weren't a jerk and you tried. Better luck next time.

Maybe it was for the best if there was nothing to discuss. Don't worry, OP. You'll find someone who you'll bond with a bit better. :)

I agree. I think it's best you two broke up. If the relationship was going well then you'd have something to talk about and would be dying to speak to her and see her as much as possible. I hope you find a relationship where you're both so in love that you never want to be apart. Where you always want to share every part of your day and find out how theirs was. Where you can sit together in comfortable silence and still want to be together, even if you're both reading and not talking, but just want that shoulder to shoulder time. That's the kind of relationship you really want to be in!

What the hell did you talk about?

Probably something offensive. It could also be that the girlfriend wanted to break up before the phone call and the call was the catalyst.
Hunkapoo 19
well it's a good thing you two broke up, seems you two aren't quite meant for each other.

How the hell did you manage that? o_0

Can we get a follow up on you sent her? Cuz I can't tell if I blame you or not.
NeatNit 33
This FML needs a follow-up more desperately than any other FML I've ever read. Or, uhh, something a bit less dramatic. OP, we're all really interested to know what happened in that conversation! edit: and knowing whether to blame you or not is not the reason...
