Today, after a month of planning, I started to tease my boyfriend of 3 years about the wonderful anniversary plans I had made for us. It was a secret, so I let him try and guess. He said, "As long as it's not a spa day. That would suck, I'd never go." It's a spa day. That I've already paid for. 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 told me he was going to take me out somewhere special, so I called in sick for work. Turns out he had made reservations for the restaurant I worked at. FML
Today, it's my birthday. My boyfriend’s birthday is a month before mine. I'd spent my birthday savings on his, but he told me that we couldn’t do anything for mine because, “I didn’t plan or organize better.” FML
Today, it is my three-year-anniversary with my boyfriend. I asked if he had planned anything for us, and he said yes. My parents volunteered to watch our daughter, I got all excited, and apparently our "plans" are to watch a football game. What do I get to do? Make sandwiches. For him. FML
Today, is my boyfriend and my 3 year anniversary. We decided to give each other something that we really needed. I bought him the $300 worth of books that he needed for college. He surprised me with a workout video and exercise equipment. FML
Today, I found out that the money my boyfriend has "secretly" been putting away for the last two months is not for an engagement ring like I'd thought, but for a trip to Vegas I'm not invited to. FML
Today, I woke up to my partner showering me with love and gifts. Confused, I asked, "What's the occasion?" It was our anniversary. Not only had I forgotten, but I'd also scheduled a gaming marathon with friends for the entire day. FML
Today, it's our fifth-year anniversary with my boyfriend. I gave him his gift and walked over to the kitchen to serve him some food I'd made. On my way back to the dining room, I overheard his plans with his friend to ditch me in 10 minutes. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I celebrated our six-month anniversary. And by that, I mean he brought along his obnoxious best friend, and I paid for everyone's dinner at an expensive restaurant. FML
Today, my husband told me to look for a honeymoon resort, since we had to cancel it last year. I looked everything up and got all excited. Just when I asked him for payment information, he said "April Fools!" April Fools was two days ago. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

FYL for already paying for it, but YDI for not knowing what he likes.

Take your best friend and get him something else and just don't tell him about your original idea. It's not that big of a deal. P.S. You'd think after 3 years you'd know if he liked spa days or not.

You're not married and you tried to get him to go to a spa with you? Why didn't you just have an anniversary dinner or go to Hawaii like normal people and not treat your love interest as "just another girlfriend"?

it sucks that you wasted the money but after three years you should know him better. honestly you should have gotten to know him better after all this time.

Hmmmm... after three years together you don't know he doesn't like going to the spa? Either you're totally self-absorbed, ignorant, or this "FML" (like 90% on this site) is total bullshit.

why would you get your BOYfriend and yourself a spa day gift? You should have known better than to get anything to do with a spa for your boyfriend. also, is it something you really thought he would enjoy? or did you actually want it for yourself and found this as a reason to go to a spa?

im really shocked by people. i know lots of guys that like massages and spas (and they're not gay, but i salute you all for stereotyping quite well). No, he probably wouldn't do that w/ his friends, but it's something for them to enjoy as a couple and to relax together. we're all so busy and stressed all the time all she was doing was trying to relax and spend some time together. i think she picked something good to do for a couple and those saying she should've known he didn't like spas...how? they've obviously never been. In fact, I've never been and i have no idea if the person im dating likes them either. but like the others said, take a gf and find something else to do
