Today, in protest at my girlfriend stealing the blankets every night, I actually bought myself a separate duvet. She stole that one too in her sleep, wrapped it round herself, and turned over so many times it disappeared under her somewhere. I went and slept on the sofa in my dressing gown. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I got a new comfy duvet and pillow and was looking forward to a good night's sleep. I got into bed and was followed by my dog, who then threw up the tub of butter he had just stolen from the kitchen onto my brand new bed spread. FML
Today, I was sleeping in after working a graveyard shift. I awoke to my girlfriend sneaking her stuff out of the house. She planned on leaving her key on my pillow and taking off without any notice whatsoever. FML
Today, my 26-year-old boyfriend came to my apartment to spend the night for the first time. He brought a "blankie" that he insisted was the only thing that could help him sleep. That "blankie" was his ex-girlfriend's silk nightgown. FML
Today, I was trying to be extra productive and washed all my clothes at once, including my bedding. I hung everything to dry and only realized too late that I had no dry sheets to sleep in. I ended up sleeping on a bare mattress, wrapped in a bath towel, like some kind of sad burrito. FML
Today, while lying in bed, I was so lonely that I put a heavy blanket in front of me so it felt like I was spooning someone. FML
Today, my girl and I got in a huge fight. Because I cuddled with her the wrong way. While I was asleep. FML
Today, I got a brand new down comforter and duvet cover that I really liked. I'd finally managed to put everything the way I wanted it, and then my roommate's dog came and peed all over my bed. FML
Today, I was sleeping with my girlfriend on my parents' bed naked, just to wake up to find out she got her period, on fresh, new sheets they bought the other day. As I finished scrubbing it and cleaning, she accidentally left a burning cigarette on the sheets so now it has a burn hole too. FML
Today, my girlfriend told me that she woke up after yesterday’s party with someone else’s trousers. FML
Today, my girlfriend and I took a nap on my couch. She used my arm as a pillow, and everything was pretty peaceful, until she moved over and practically dislocated my shoulder. My screams of pain woke her, which was apparently an "asshole move" on my part. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Buy a single electric blanket for her side of the bed. Or a double one with separate controls for each side of you can afford it. I was a terrible duvet hog because of circulation issues making me feel cold all the time. Bought an double electric blanket and now I cuddle into the warm mattress with just my duvet instead of arbitrarily stealing all the available warm within reach. If she's a cold person in general then she'll adore a heated fleece blanket for the sofa and maybe for the bed if she prefers her warm over her instead of under. About £35 -40 on Amazon for a good one, don't cheap out on Chinese guff, you want properly fused UK plugs and standards. Mine seem to last about 5 years and I use it every day. There's also weighted blankets to look into if it's the being wrapped up in a heavy pile of blankets that she's after. Basically you need to have a talk and figure out what she's finding comforting about it. It might be a mix of a heated furry and a weighted blanket that is perfect for her. As soon as you find the right mix BOTH of you are going to sleep vastly better.
