Today, I was really depressed so I talked on the phone with my best friend. She was telling me how a guy she really liked complimented her. I told her it was be nice to get at least one compliment. After a long silence she says, "You're really good with computers." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I had a long, meaningful telephone conversation. After hanging up, I realized I hadn't had such a great conversation in a long time. Who was it with? The Dell Customer Support guy. FML
Today, my girlfriend was upset, so I tried to cheer her up by telling her how much I love her and how beautiful she is. After a minute, her face started to light up. I thought it had worked until I realized that she was being cheered up by the friends she was talking to online. FML
Today, I was snuggling in bed with my girlfriend. She was depressed, so I complimented her strong legs, saying they were "like a horse." I spent the next hour and a half trying to stop her crying. FML
Today, my friend needed to talk out bad feelings. Then she urged me to open up as well. I hate doing it, but it only seemed fair, so I confessed my deep insecurities. Not only did she agree with everything, but she also helpfully added that I'm boring, have no life, and all my dreams are unattainable. FML
Today, I was talking to a female friend online. She was typing out a story bit by bit about how awful she was feeling after being teased. I was responding with, "So, so true" but because of my slow typing it appeared after she wrote, "Doesn't help being fat." FML
Today, my best friend told me that she is only my friend because she is prettier than me and being my friend boost her confidence. FML
Today, after feeling like I've been sucking as a friend and contacting a friend who has called me their best friend, but doesn't talk to me much, we grabbed a coffee. The whole time I was trying to have a conversation, she was on her phone. FML
Today, I realized the only reason my phone ever rings is because someone needs help with their computer. FML
Today, I sent out a text saying "Smile! You're beautiful and don't let anyone tell you otherwise." to most of my contacts. I got one reply, from my best friend, saying, "Are you fucking stupid?" FML
Today, my best friend told me I'm the friend who no one really likes. This was after I had bought her lunch, ice cream, and a ticket to a movie we were going to see that day. FML

If you need people to feel better with yourself, you are f*cked.

I thought that this meant that the OP had said that it would be nice to get one compliment not meaning she wanted one herself, and the fact the friend couldn't come up with one was upsetting.

While you put her on the spot with your complaint, she's kind of a lame "best" friend if that's the best compliment she could come up with.

That's in the eye of the beholder, actually. In a group of people that value being technically well-versed it would in fact be a good compliment. In a group of sorority chicks that only talk about make-up, fashion and guys all day and think everyone good with computers is a friendless dork - not so much.

YDI for being a moron and your life ended with a compliment. Seriously what the **** is wrong with your logic?

I love it when people go fishing for compliments and reel in an old boot covered in seaweed. I'll bet you plugged your friend's printer in and correctly connected the USB cable, and from this stroke of genius you were deemed to be "good with computers." On the other hand, she could have said, "Well,. . . you're dick is not THAT small."

I apologize. I screwed up. That last line was an edit, and I was under the pressure of the two-minute window. Thanks for pointing out my error. I stand corrected.

I understand completely. Two minutes is never enough time to edit a comment! Especially when the site is slow to load.
