Today, I was auditioning for a talent show. I asked my girlfriend if I could sing to her before I went. She said sure. Thirty seconds in, she got up and mumbled, "You're only going to embarrass yourself." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, during an important music audition, I fudged everything up and forgot half the lyrics of the song I was performing, so I just sort of tailed off into embarrassed silence on stage. It was an original song, I wrote the lyrics myself. All the lady could say was, "Good luck next year, dear." FML
Today, I told my mom that I want to try out for a singing competition on TV, so I might be able to kick off my musical career. She convinced me to sing a song for her, so I did. Mid-way through, she lost it, burst into laughter, and told me to stay in school. FML
Today, my roommate eavesdropped on me singing. When I realized he was there, he said I was "fucking incredible" and asked me to do another song. There's just one issue: I only sing well when I'm alone. The result was predictably bad. If it was possible to literally die of embarrassment, I wouldn't be writing this. FML
Today, I auditioned for the musical at my school. Before I sang my song, I gave my music to the director. She said "Oh, I love this song!". After I sang it, she told me, "It's okay, I still like the song." FML
Today, I sang a romantic song I wrote for my girlfriend. She laughed at my soprano. FML
Today, to help me get over my crippling social anxiety, my therapist encouraged me to sing in front of a crowd, since I actually have a fine singing voice. I ended up fainting onstage, mid-song. FML
Today, I went to a karaoke bar that my girlfriend works at. I'm a halfway decent singer, so I picked out a song we both liked and decided to give it a go. Halfway through the song I sneezed, tripped, fell off the stage and knocked myself out in front of my girlfriend and fifty bar patrons. FML
Today, my fiancée told me she was having a bad day while we were lying in bed. Just as she was about to fall asleep I thought it would be sweet if I sang her a song that her Mom sang to her when she was a child. Instead, I was told to shut the fuck up and that I sucked. FML
Today, I worked up the courage to sing at an open mic night. I lost my cool halfway through because all I could hear was laughter. FML
Today, I auditioned for a part in a play. I've been practicing for months, and was very excited. After I'd finished singing, the director whispered something to the other judges, and they all laughed. Hard. So much for the lead role. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

not really, she was only being honest and trying to let him know he sucks.

You should have said "like you do in bed".

I have actually found that so far (for me) no girl sucks in bed, it's always the guy's fault that the sex is bad.

Well really, there are 2 rules to sex: 1. Always make it interesting, the other partner will perform well if you do. 2. No fat chicks
YacL 15
Well she didn't exactly say it to his face, so I don't know if it counts as honesty, but at least now he knows he shouldn't sing.

Dedicate the song to her!! Since she sucks, too..
ProhibitionRose 14
what if the girl has batwings and a cavernous ******? I think it'd be safe to assume she wasn't good in bed if you can't feel the walls. O.O needless to say, girls can be awful in bed.

This is the whole reason I clearly wrote in brackets (for me).

Even if she has a carnivorous ******?

That'd what girlfriends are for!

Yes, she was being honest but she could've told him politely. Or you know at least been more direct, rather than mumbling.
flighted 1
She def. could have been more direct. since she mumbled it, she was obviously going to tell him he sounded great, with a fake smile (:D) and let him go on stage. Lol she could have been more helpful and told him tips to sound BETTER instead of saying he'll embarrass himself. Lol, I can tell what great of a relationship they have haha

Well, it could've been said in a gentler approach
TheWindowLicker 13
Yea, I agree with 2, definitely better being honest. And 55, OP's girlfriend probably didn't have any tips to give, not everyone can sing(me especially). Also I don't think there is that many tips to give for that anyway xp.

truth hurts sometimes but it's better than letting u humiliate yourself.
MissBrainDamage 0
Yeh at least OP gf told him - I think it's better to going and stage and sounding like shit
ProhibitionRose 14
true, she could have been gentle about it, however the truth hurts and OP probably would've been upset regardless of how gentle she broke the news to him. I mean, the guy entered a talent show...obviously he thought he was talented.

RyanMacVey 17

GullibleJailbait 0
I find the blatant affection between them pretty disgusting and off topic. not that I'm jealous or anything.
CateXOX 0
Yeah, and she didn't have to be so harsh about it, but he needed to know that if it was true.

If people laugh at you, just say it is supposed to be a comedy act.

dont worry, with autotune and some sweet dance moves you can make it in music today.
CryMoreFMLs 15
We dont need more Rebecca Blacks and Justin Biebers.

most people just know how to use it.. it's still pretty shitty that people are getting rich fir crappy voices that some nerd (live nerdy or die dirty) fixes for them
GigaPudding_fml 24
The truth hurts but at least she told you before your act...? :)
you_failed 15
Better to hear it from her than the audience right?
vyben 3
Yeah I'd take her word for it
toelie 26
I'd appreciate her honesty. Too many people go and embarrass themselves on talentshows because their family/friends tell them they're great singers.
fatalkiss 0
You must really be shitty, looks like she wasn't just trying to be a bitch, since she agreed to listen. Just practice?
BWill9014 4
I like her honesty but... she didn't have to be so blunt about it... the way she went about it made her seem like an ass hole
