Today, my boyfriend gave me a bucket of Twizzlers for our one year anniversary because "He knew I liked them." He has no idea why I am so upset. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my boyfriend thought it'd be romantic to take me to a strip club for our 1-year anniversary. FML
Today, my boyfriend brought me home flowers and candy for the first time in our one-year relationship. Thinking he was going to finally propose, I got excited. I asked why he was being so sweet, and he responded with, "I thought you'd take the breakup better this way." FML
Today, it's my 8 year anniversary. My boyfriend's "romantic" gesture for the occasion was to toss a few McDonald's coupons at me and tell me to get whatever I wanted. FML
Today, on the way out to buy groceries, my boyfriend asked if I'd like him to buy some of my favourite flowers. Happy with his rare show of affection, I said yes. When he returned, he gave me a bag of our usual brand of flour and laughed hysterically in my face. FML
Today, I woke up and my husband said he got me a gift for our one year anniversary and that it was on the table. We laid around cuddling and when I finally got up I was expecting to walk out to beautiful bouquet of flowers. I got two packs of cigarettes. FML
Today, my boyfriend gave me a fancy chocolate candy and I got angry at him for forgetting that I'm allergic to chocolate and threw the candy into the garbage disposal. Turns out, he had spent a ton of money getting a chocolatier to put an engagement ring inside the candy that I just destroyed. FML
Today, it was our 12th anniversary. My husband only remembered because family members texted to wish us a happy anniversary. When he went out to the store to get groceries, he didn't even buy me flowers. He's also irritated that I "seem sad or something." FML
Today, I surprised my girlfriend with flowers and dinner reservations for our one-year anniversary. She looked confused and said, “Wait, we’re counting from the first time we hung out?” It turns out she thought we were still “just talking.” She also has a boyfriend. It’s not me. FML
Today, my husband bought me a present for our three year anniversary. It was a pack of 20 cigarettes. I don't smoke. He does. FML
Today, I was spending time with my boyfriend for our one year anniversary. Trying to be romantic, I told him that I loved him and I was so glad I was with him. He responded by giving me a thumbs-up and turning back to the TV. FML

Why ARE you upset? He didn't forget. He even remembered an insignificant detail about you. Most people would find that cute.

most of these comments have GOT to be guys...who don't have money so they're being defensive and turning it around on you.

This shouldn't be about money at all. If someone gets an anniversary present that's expensive but not thoughtful at all, in my opinion, that's worse than something inexpensive yet thoughtful. And, like many people have stated, she should just tell him why she's upset. And what's he supposed to do to remedy it? Buy her another gift? Tell her how sorry he is? It's understandable that she's perhaps a bit disappointed, but this is by no means a "F my life".

@OP -> Im amazed at how thoughtful this guy sounds, a bucket of your fav treat. Being ungreatful gets you nothing but a bitchslap of the FML community. you deserve NOTHING! @ #335 -> awesome way to spend an anniversary! My now husband and I didnt even remember our first anniversary let alone do anything or get each other anything. 2 and 3 we remembered, but just didnt get each other anything as being together on a beach was more important than gifts. We are happily married now. (2 months on the 27!)

Not everything every woman does has to do with feminism. What are you even talking about? SOME women have issues, some men have issues... leave gender out of it and feminism even further.

For our two year, my b/f and I just rented a movie and ate pizza on the couch. Seriously get over yourself. At least he was trying and was thoughtful. Why ARE you upset, anyway?

Get over yourself... He remembered your anniversary AND got you something he knew you would like. I bet you posted an FML when your parents didn't get you a Lexus for graduating high school with a D- average, too. Spoiled brat.

Every year my boyfriend surprizes me by taking me to a different restaurant, only catch is that i'm not allowed to see the menu, which makes it fun imo. Do I expect him to spend that much money on me? No. I've even told him that ordering pizza while sitting on the floor watching a scary movie would be awesome too, but HE wants to take me out. Anyone who expects gifts doesn't deserve them.

You guys are only boyfriend and girlfriend, your not even engaged. Chill the **** out and be thankful he even remembered it.
