Today, my friends and I held an intervention for my fiancé. He's been talking and behaving like an "old-timey cowboy" non-stop for the last three months. Our wedding is in a month and he refuses to marry me if I can't accept his "life choices." FML

Wild Nights Out
Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, after months of arguing and conflict, I broke up wIth my fiancé. Or at least, I tried to. The wedding's off, but only until he can convince me to want to marry him again. FML
Today, my fiancé told me that he was having second thoughts on our engagement. Instead of just calling it off, he took me to a fancy restaurant and took a public poll on whether we should get married. The majority said no. FML
Today, my fiance finally began seeing a therapist, after months of my begging him to. The therapist convinced him that he and I had "irreconcilable differences" so now he's asked for the ring back. FML
Today, my friends staged an intervention. I'm not on drugs, I'm not an alcoholic, and I own my own house. My car is paid for and my job pays well. Apparently, I need an intervention because my life is not where they want it to be, which involves me being married with children. FML
Today, I tried to talk to my soon-to-be-husband about how he needs to take a more active approach in his own life. It devolved to him screaming at me and putting words in my mouth. This has been going on for six months. FML
Today, at our wedding, instead of saying "I do", my fiancé paused before saying, "I can't do this", stepped down from the altar and proposed to my maid of honor. When she obviously refused, he ran from the venue bawling. He's not returning my calls. FML
Today, I got engaged. My family is already placing bets on how long it will take for my fiancée to "wise up and ditch" me. FML
Today, my fiancé called off our engagement after I contested his belief that women stop having periods after they are married. FML
Today, my fiancée called off our wedding out of the blue. After a long discussion about it, it turns out that last week I voiced an opinion about the wedding she didn’t agree with, and doesn’t want to spend her life married to someone who’s going to argue with her every five minutes. FML
Today, my fiancé refused to talk to me because I'm "an alcoholic". I only started drinking like this after we moved in together and he brought me alcohol every day, because he's an alcoholic. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

What girl wouldnt want a cowboy?
rsunshine2020 13
cowboys are hot ;) Start acting like a cowgirl and see how he reacts
Marrach 7
Many girls don't like them.. Anyways, OP can act like a Jamaican girl until he chooses to change.
syki 22
And what the **** is wrong with Jamaican girls?
TaffyMichele 9
Just like some people don't want to live with an old-timey cowboy, others wouldn't want to live with a stereotypical Jamaican girl. I personally don't think I could. I can't stand the accent.

A lot of girls wouldn't want a cowboy... after they can only ride for 8 seconds
crazytwinsmom 25
They're horn dogs that don't last and only think of themselves.

Screw it! If he's a hot cowboy go with it! Cowboys can be hot as hell!!:)

86-I think it's clear that he isn't a hot cowboy.

He's taking the phrase "ride 'em cowboy" to a whole new level.

Codezlol 21
I agree with 80 here. Seems like he's looking for a way out.

It's a stage, my mom tells me that my dad did the same thing right before I was born. He even started riding bulls at a local place. But after a little while he realized that he is definitely not a cowboy.

I want to find this funny but you carried the joke on for too long.
gracehi 33
It wasn't a joke. It was a story. -.-

I'm actually a broadcasting student so you're right on the money with the whole not curing cancer thing.

What girl wouldn't want a cowboy? After all, he could ride you like a champ.

"Yee-haw! What a buck!"

8 seconds and he'll use spurs? Ok, maybe I see why she's upset.

Your picture of Timmy's dad fits perfectly with your comment!

As is riding the dog like a horse. Luckily, you have your smart phone with an etrade app. :)

I agree with your profile and your photo.... Plus I'm a huge fan of the show. Just watched sunday's latest show last night, whoa! If you are a shoe girl check on eBay for Iron fist zombie stompers, so awesome I had to have a pair!

66 -- Pardon my obvious idiocy, but what in ****'s name are you talking about?
gc327072 31
NObooooodddyyy knoooows.

103- they're talking about The Walking Dead, as gracehi's picture is of one of the characters (Daryl). But yes, it was phrased rather abruptly.
Docbee 11
You should of saw the signs, now you're thinking to yourself why you let him practise riding you. Of course he'd be obsessed now if you suddenly stopped after three months :3
soja_fml 18
Should have* Practice*
doodlecloud 27
*seen
doodlecloud 27
But actually, he was write about 'practise'. PractiCe = noun, practiSE = verb.
doodlecloud 27
And finally, at myself, *right. Major fail right there, but then I was thinking about him writing it lol...
Cainicide 5
Don't have a cow over it, I'm sure he's just horsing around.
LiterOfCola 16
Lasso stupid that you're letting this get in the way of your marriage, OP
alexhaz64 4
I'd say it's a spur of the moment thing, but of he keeps it up you should give him the boot!

Better you know now than after the wedding. Decide if his is a behavior trait you can live with.
