Miscellaneous: Better than nothing

Better than nothing

By Fluory - 07/12/2009 14:43 - United States

Today, my boyfriend asked me why I chose to date him. After going on for five minutes about how unique and funny he is, I ask him the same question. His reply? "You were the first person to ask me out." He then rolled over and fell asleep. FML

Today, my boyfriend and I were in bed and I asked him why he was with me. His answer was, "Well, the last girl I dated was really smart and she always made me feel dumb, so I decided to switch things up a bit. You make me feel like a genius, babe." FML

Today, I woke up to find my boyfriend watching me sleep. I asked him if he was staring at me because he was in love. He replied that it was because my farting wouldn't let him sleep. FML

Today, I asked my husband when he first knew he loved me. He replied, totally honestly, that I was the easiest girl he'd ever managed to talk into a one-night stand, only instead of doing the walk of shame the next morning, I stayed so long we ended up married with kids. FML

Today, someone asked my fiancée and I how we met. She said, "Well, it was just supposed to be a one night stand!" and laughed, right as I was about to take her hand and say, "It was love at first sight!" FML

Today, my boyfriend told me the reason he dated me was because he was lonely, and I looked lonely enough to like him. FML

Today, I asked my boyfriend why he dates me. He immediately responded, "Well, TV shows are boring and predictable, so you're a good source of fresh and interesting drama." FML

Today, I finally got up the courage to tell my boyfriend of a year and a half that I love him. His response was to start to snore, pretending to be asleep. FML

Today, while my boyfriend was asleep, I gave him a soft kiss and whispered how handsome and gentle he looked. His response, still asleep, was to roll over and let out a massive fart. FML

Can't blame him for being honest. I't doesn't need to be bad.

So what? He obviously chose to stay with you, so I dont see why it should be that much of a big problem.

OP, if you are dissatisfied with his answer then move on with your life. Otherwise, stop complaining. Your boyfriend is your choice.

"Unique" is a shitty compliment. Everyone is technically unique. To call a person unique is like calling them warm-blooded. BFD. And you claim you like him for being "funny!" Didn't you get his little jokety joke?

Why must you ask him something like that? Are you that insecure? Is your self-esteem that low that you need to know if he's just dating you "for the time being" until someone more hotter comes along? Maybe he was making a funny, just to see your reaction. If he was being on the level, I wouldn't sweat it. You put him on the spot, so he responded with the first thing that came to mind. He could easily have said because you had big **** or that he heard you were good in the sack. Count your blessings, what little you have, anyway.

Did you fail to notice that he asked her the question first?

Well at the time, he was sleepy. Also, you being "the first person to ask him out" is obviously a big deal to him, something that makes him happy, and you took it the wrong way. lrn2chill.
