Today, I was feeling really depressed and ended up asking my mom why guys aren't interested in me. She replied with a laundry list of reasons, including, "Hair. Boobs. Face. Everything." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I asked my mom why nobody likes me. She reeled off about a dozen reasons. FML
Today, feeling very self-conscious about my looks, I told my mom I felt ugly and wished I could be as beautiful as her. She only said, "Yeah, I'm pretty, I wonder what happened to you." FML
Today, I asked my mom if I was ugly. She said, "Ask your girlfriend." I said I didn't have one. She said "Exactly." FML
Today, I told my mom I was feeling depressed and needed motivation. She hugged me and said, “Honey, you just need to get out there and find someone who loves you for who you are.” Then she added, “...but maybe lose the mustache first.” I’m her daughter. FML
Today, my mom and dad were talking about how if I lost weight, I would be attractive and have guys all over me. My dad said, “That’s exactly what I’m worried about.” It took me a while to realize they both think I’m ugly. FML
Today, I was talking with my mother and expressed my slight disappointment at how many of my friends are getting into relationships, whereas I'm still single. My mother decided to encourage me by saying "Don't worry, sweetie. There are boys out there who don't go for looks. You'll be fine". FML
Today, after coming home from hanging out with a few friends, my mom told me that I shouldn't hang out with them any more. Why? Because "they are way hotter than I am and I'll never get a boyfriend if I'm always the ugly one in my group." FML
Today, I came out to my parents. My mother laughed and, when I asked her what was so funny, she told me, "Well, most gays are attractive, muscular, funny and can dress very well. You're ugly, fat, boring, and have no sense of fashion. Good luck." FML
Today, I told my parents I wanted to try modelling. I thought that since I have such a low self-esteem, that it might benefit me, and make me feel better about myself and how I look. The first thing out of my dad's mouth was, "What? Why? You're ugly." Thanks dad. FML
Today, my mom tried to give me a pep talk to boost my self confidence. Somehow, it ended up turning into a conversation about how much of a loser I am and how I have no friends. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Unfortunately not everyone is attractive, I'm not gonna lie like everyone else on this site does by telling you you're beautiful because there is a good chance your not. All I can say is make the most of what you have and shrug off comments like that.

Also, a lot of someone's attractiveness comes from their attitude and the way they carry themselves.

That and OP might just be unkept. While I can hardly say much considering my lack of self-confidence, just wearing clothes that actually fit your body type and having a more flattering haircut can already do a lot for someones looks.

You asked and she told you. You are either a hot mess our your mom just got tired of hearing you whine about not finding a guy. Nobody likes a whiner.

Exactly OP! Face the hard reality! Just like Cook4money! She knows her face looks like to was smashed in with a bat but she is proud of it! If she can do it, so can you!

You are right. I know I can do it and so can OP.

That's pretty mean

Perhaps she wasn't referring to your parts in general, OP. Just that "these are the things boys don't like and you fall into one of these categories?"
Alchemist_21 26
So OP falls into the "Everything" category?

Don't ask questions that you don't want to know the answer to.
MacItUp 8
Exactly OP! That's why Noobienick doesn't ask for he reminds you of. Because he knows the answer would be a chubby Justin Bieber.

well, if you inhereited the uber bitch attitude your mom has, then that may be why boys don't like you. Or your desperate need to be liked by someone is a direct result of your mom constantly rejecting you. Either way... don't be like her.
