Today, I saw my ex-boyfriend walking down the street in my direction. I've put on a bunch of weight since we broke up, so I turned to look in the nearest shop window, hoping he wouldn't notice. Unfortunately he did see me, looking straight at a KFC. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I ran into my ex-boyfriend on campus. Upset, I decided to go to McDonald's to eat my painful memories away. While in the drive-thru line, I realized my ex was right in front of me. It looked like I'd followed him all the way from campus. He thinks I'm a stalker now. FML
Today, I ran into my ex-boyfriend who dumped me after 2 1/2 years because I got fat. The last two years I've lost 68 lbs, am happier and couldn't wait to shove that in his face. So, of course the first time he sees me I'm alone, I'm pushing a shopping cart full of ice cream for a party later. FML
Today, I was out shopping with my friends when I saw my ex. I instinctively tried to hide by quickly turning around and walking into a store. It was a mirror. I walked straight into my own reflection. FML
Today, I saw my ex-boyfriend at Wal-Mart. This would have been fine had he not broken up with me because he was "moving to Canada." FML
Today, I was out for a jog when I saw my ex-boyfriend walking towards me. I tried to duck behind a tree to avoid him, but I slipped on a plastic bag and fell into a lovely patch of mud. He saw the whole thing and walked away smirking. FML
Today, I saw my friend's ex and noticed she had gained a ton of weight since he dated her and had been dating someone else. It reminded me of my friend, so I messaged him and made a joke about her being unrecognizable. He informed me that they started seeing each other again last week. FML
Today, I ran into my ex at our local supermarket. Trying to be aloof, I waved casually, but I misjudged the distance and knocked over a display of canned beans. My ex just stood there, laughing, while I scrambled to rearrange up my mess. FML
Today, my mum came to visit me in the country where I'm studying. We went out, and when she saw a dude eating something she liked the look of, she made me run after him to ask where he bought it. The guy was my ex. FML
Today, I went out on a date with an ex-boyfriend who I hadn't seen since college. He took me to a bar, where he was oddly quiet, but drank heavily. When the bartender asked us if we were ok, he replied, "This is my ex-girlfriend. Can you believe she used to be skinny?" FML
Today, I went out shopping. When I left the store, I saw my ex, who I'm still crazy about. He helped me carry my bags out to the car. When I leaned in to give him a hug goodbye, he stepped aside, and I fell face-first into a puddle. He walked away laughing. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Who cares? He is your ex

That seems ridiculous. You should be proud of who you are, and you should flaunt your happiness in front of him to make him miss you. Way to go OP :)

Doesn't sound like she's to happy too me
TheLadyOpal 30
It's hard to flaunt what you haven't got.
Scotth901 22
But if you pretend to be happy in front of him, he will be miserable and try to get her back, putting op back on the moral high ground.

Yeeeeaaaah, that's not how it works, 22.

It said that she's put on weight. Weight that's put on can be lost. Not for beauty standards, **** those, but for physical health

Do you think real life is Disney or something?

If you want your ex to feel like shit, well I'm pretty sure that puts you on the moral low ground. In fact, if you want anyone to feel like shit then it does. The **** is wrong with you?
LaxGuy26 12
I mean if she did do that to try to make him miss her she would be kind of an ass. But the rest yeah.
Scotth901 22
Well excuse me for trying to express a nice sentiment. Sorry for trying, damn :(
nanner6206 24
she didn't say she wanted him to feel bad. she didn't want to be seen by him and feel humiliated. She's clearly ashamed of her weight gain.

gogo44444 28
Yeah he's your ex for a reason!
katachristic 19
hopefully not cause of her weight. that would be awkward.

I kinda understand/relate. If I see my ex, I put on airs in front of her as if I've been having the time of my life since after the break up. I guess to make them seem like they aren't worth your time anymore?Something like that.

Well, hum...FYI I offer online personal training if interested. Obviously you're not too happy with the extra pounds you've put on! Let's get started!

Business must be booming...

Sorry op that sucks a lot. Hopefully he wasn't rude.
Iwannarock1 19
Rude, why? He's relieved.
pleasedie 22
And you care why ? Only thing that should matter is that you feel good about yourself, not his opinion of you or your appearance

In an ideal world, perhaps. But for most people, looking happy, rich and successful when an ex sees you is important, especially if it was the other person who ended it. It's that whole "The best revenge is living well" thing.
fakedsincerity 32
Rock those new curves! Or work hard to get whatever body shape you feel most confident with. (:
Angelkisses130 26
I understand everyone saying she should be proud and I agree but you have to keep in mind that us girls are really self conscious, sometimes for no reason. Plus, who really wants to talk to their ex anyways? It doesn't seem like they were friends, and to be honest I probably would have done the same thing as OP

^ I see your pov 0.0

Well I hope he was mature enough not to say anything rude
angelitared 27
That's so funny!
beeferjay 34
maybe lay off the guilt twinkies so next time you'll be more confident and show him what he's missing
MagnusDeus 24
I know people will hate you for saying that, but admittedly it made me laugh.
fuckedPriceless 17
People will hate him for it because people hate to hear the truth. Honestly, if you aren't happy with your body then change it. if you don't change it, then obviously it isn't THAT important to you. You make your choices, own them.
