Today, I sent my boyfriend of three and a half years a text message spilling my heart out, saying I'll love him forever, and how much I appreciate him in my life, that I want to be the mother of his children, etc. His text back to me? "Are you drunk?!?" FML

Today, I was texting my boyfriend about yesterday, where he told me how much he loved me, and he wishes we lived closer. I asked him if he really meant it. Turns out he was drunk, and had no idea what he was talking about. FML

Today, I sent my boyfriend of over a year a text message telling him how much I loved him, how perfect he is for me and what I love about him. He sent me back a text saying, "I thought you had class." FML

Today, my dad texted me, "I love u." I replied, "I love you too dad... are you drunk?" He answers back, "Of course I am..." My dad only tells me he loves me when he's drunk. FML

Today, my boyfriend proposed to me. I said yes. This caused him to panic, excuse himself, then take it back via text message a half hour later, claiming he'd been drunk. We live together. When he comes back home, it's going to be very awkward indeed. FML

Today, my boyfriend of three years sent me a text message saying "It's over!" I sent him maybe a thousand texts saying "Why?", "What do you mean?!" After an hour of crying and whatnot, I realized he had driver's education today and that he was saying the class was over. FML

Today, I received a beautiful, heart-felt text from my boyfriend detailing all the ways he loved me. He probably should have emphasized just how big his heart is though because he sent the text to three other women too. Thank you, group messaging. FML

Today, I spent two hours perfecting a really romantic text message to my boyfriend for our one year anniversary. I listed all the things I loved about him, and recalled some of our best times together. Two minutes after I sent it, he replied, "Huh?" FML

I think the "mother of your children" part probably prompted his question more than anything else

Your life isn't f***ed, and you shouldn't take offense. You probably just really took him off guard. That sort of thing isn't something usually said y text message, and it can be hard to judge the sincerity of a text. He probably thought you were jerking his chain. Try again, this time without the text. Wait for the opportune moment. As kbot says above me, you probably shouldn't say this kind of thing while he's watching Spongebob.

Ok, why not say this to his face where it would be more meaningful....certainly not in a text message. C'mon people, don't let modern technology take over good ole fashioned romance!

you should have left out the part of wanting his children, then it would have been fine. last time someone said they wanted me to have their kids, i was incredibly freaked out.

maybe she couldnt see him in person or he was at work and couldnt use the phone.. its nice to send reminders like that but i agree with those that say to save the long stuff for in person. i love you texts are okay :)
