Today, I discovered a bunch of emails from my old account that weren't forwarded to my new one. Because of this, I missed a job offer, as well as all the emails from my long-distance boyfriend asking if he could visit. I still don't have a job, and I broke up with him because he "failed to communicate." FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I flew 8 hours to visit my boyfriend. When I arrived at the airport, and he started taking long to show up, I checked my email to see the info. I hit the junk mail by accident and found his last 10 emails in there. He had broken up with me a week ago. FML
Today, I realized I wasn't getting notifications for my voicemail, so I decided to check it and found out that I had 3 job offerings that are no longer an option. FML
Today, I quit my job and sent a mass mail on Facebook that I was moving to a different state with my long time boyfriend. He called me later that night to tell me we aren't moving after all. Now we are both jobless with loads of bills to pay by the end of the month. FML
Today, I finished hauling all of my possessions from another state, because I was supposed to move in with my girlfriend. I was just waiting to find a job. Almost as soon as my stuff was delivered, she broke up with me and told me to figure out getting it all back by myself. FML
Today, my new job e-mailed to tell me the role was no longer available, leaving me to start my job search all over again. My notice at my current job ends this week. But it's OK, because as compensation for my 'distress', the company sent £100 worth of vouchers... to the wrong address. FML
Today, I received yet more mail for my ex-fiancé. We've been broken up for nearly a year and I've told him multiple times to change his address. Getting his mail is a constant reminder that I haven't dated since. FML
Today, I broke up with my boyfriend because I found an email he had written to an ex-fling telling her he was single and wanted to meet up. He wrote that email from my computer, in my apartment, on Valentine's Day. FML
Today, after moving to a new house my life has fallen apart, paperwork lost, appointments missed, job offers rescinded, and now I know why. The postbox by my new house isn’t in use, so four months worth of the letters I've posted are sitting uncollected inside it. It even has a big "Not in use" sign on it. FML
Today, I found out my email hasn't been working for 10 days. Normally, this wouldn't be a big deal, but it just so happens that a position opened up for my dream job while this was happening. I would have gotten the job, but instead they gave it to someone I just finished training. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me, right after I turned down an amazing job opportunity in another location, just so I could be with him. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

This sounds more like an FML for your boyfriend. "Today, my girlfriend broke up with me because I 'failed to communicate'. Turns out I was sending my e-mails to her old e-mail account and she never bothered to look. FML"

This is either fake or OP is totally stupid. Reason 1: You don't wonder that you do not get any forwarded mails from your old account Reason 2: You don't tell your boyfriend your new e-mail address. Reason 3: You didn't give your boyfriend the possibility of answering to your accusation.

Roflcopter. The girl breaks up with the guy, because she is too stupid to check her mail proberly, and in the end the guy deserves it. If you ever have a FML experience YDI.

So wait. Your potential employer couldn't have just picked up the damn phone to call you like normal possible employers?? And when your boyfriend said he sent you e-mails (which I assume he did in order to protest the whole 'bad communication' thing) you didn't think to check it? Honestly, YDI

YDI for giving everyone your old E-mail and acting like an idiot when they don't send to your new one.

that's why you're only supposed to change your email address when absolutely necessary. because things like this happen, people don't get the memo.

Women always blame men for the lack of communication in relationships, but I still have yet to find a woman who is able to honestly express her emotions and talk about her feelings. YDI, and I'm not surprised.

I don't know how you guys do it in the US, but don't companies there have enough time to call people on their cellphones or their landline? I think it's only proper if it concerns something as important as a job offer.
