Today, the attractive guy I barely speak to in my statistics class gave me a rose for Valentine's Day because he remembered they were my favorite. My husband got me a roll of quarters and told me to go buy myself "something pretty." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was in class when someone came in with a rose for me. My teacher made me read the card aloud: "I'm breaking up with you, happy Valentine's." It was from my boyfriend. FML
Today, I arranged to have some flowers delivered at work for Valentine's Day so that my colleagues will think someone likes me. FML
Today, I sent a guy in my English class a rose. He's kind of an outcast, so I though it would be a nice gesture. I asked him later how his day was going and he said, "Good. I got a rose this morning, but I could tell it was from a guy. The handwriting was awful." 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, my Mom came to pay me a short visit at college. She handed me some flowers, which were a Valentine's Day gift, because she "figured I wouldn't be getting any from anyone else this year." FML
Today, I went to the store to get Valentine's Day gifts to decorate my boyfriend's and my new apartment. He was there shopping with his wife. FML
Today, I bought myself a flower for Valentine's Day to be delivered to myself from "Anonymous". FML
Today, it's my wedding anniversary; my husband forgot. My daughter gave me two beautiful long stem roses and said she would look after her sister while we went out to celebrate. My daughter is more romantic and thoughtful than my own husband. FML
Today, my boyfriend took me to dinner. There was a beautifully decorated table with rose petals and a huge bouquet and he told me he had ordered all this for me. I'd never felt so special. That is, until I had to get up for the couple whose table it actually was. FML
Today, after ordering a custom $200 Valentine's Day gift box for my husband, he gave it away to a female coworker upon delivery because Valentine's Day isn't for guys. I hope she like the new Xbox one controller and all the gift cards as well. FML

hope you showed your husband the rose and said "this is what another man gave me!"

Who is making do without another f/t income in the house while OP takes a class? That husband. A roll of quarters is $10 and at least lets her buy some drugstore make-up. A rose is a couple of bucks and says, "I'd do ya." No wonder divorce is so common.

How do you know for certain that OP isn't working while she goes to school? Some teachers graduate from 4 year and then teach while they go to school for their masters degree. That's what I'm planning to do. How does a rose say, "I'll do ya"?

My boyfriend works a full time job and takes night classes at a college; that's the point of why night classes are available. I am a full time college student and also work part time. Not all people in college classes choose not to work as well.

#39 - My dad has the same issue! Mostly because he forgets the dates and because when he finally does remember a date he has no idea what to get her. My dad just tells her that if she ever needs or wants something, she can just buy it whenever she wants. Not very romantic at all, but hey, he's always been like that so my mom's used to it.

Crazy thought here but did you ever consider that Valentine's Day isn't about the gifts? I'm willing to bet your husband does a lot for you throughout the year, like maybe helping to pay for those classes you're taking...

My question to this FML: what on earth did you get your husband for valentine's day?

I made him his favorite breakfast before I went to class and got him an RC Cola and a big pack of beef jerky and a sweet card. I barely got a thank you and he didn't eat it. If you knew my husband then you'd know that's the perfect gift. So I was already sore when I wrote this.

Ahh the difference between a man trying to get laid, and a man who already is getting laid :)

Well, he didn't say you had to use the quarters to buy something pretty. Go out and get that $800 black dress with the open back and a slit on the side. Yeah..., the one that shows off your abs and just a hint of the insides of your breasts. Then go get that Jaguar you've been eyeing and go pick up that pretty boy in stats class for a night out at the Waldorf... What? Too much?

Does the guy with the rose know you're married or is this the beginning of another FML
