Today, I updated an e-mail I've saved to drafts and have been updating every day for the last few months to a girl I really adore. In this letter, I told her everything I ever kept from her. Instead of saving it to drafts again, I accidentally sent it. And she's online. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I emailed my crush an anonymous love letter. It wasn't until twenty minutes later that I realized that the email address I used contained my full name. FML
Today, I decided to write a romantic email to my boyfriend describing how much I love and miss him. An hour later, I got an email back saying, "I think we need to discuss this." It seems I sent it to my teacher by mistake. FML
Today, I sent a love letter I'd written meant for my crush to a friend so she could evaluate my prose before I actually sent it to him. For some reason, my emotions got the best of me, and I mistakenly CC'd my mom. She replied with three crying-with-laughter emojis. FML
Today, I sent a message on Facebook to a girl I really like. She replied, "..." It took me three hours to realize she'd actually written it. I thought it was just Facebook telling me she was typing. FML
Today, I found a love letter in my mail. It was from a girl I met at a bar few weeks ago. I never gave her my address or last name. I guess I have a stalker now. FML
Today, I found a great recipe for dinner, and emailed it to myself with the subject "Dinner tonight". Hours later, I'd forgotten all about it, opened my emails, saw the subject line, and thought someone was asking me out to dinner. I got really excited until I saw the sender address. FML
Today, I accidentally sent an email of love confession to my best friend, just to find out she calls all of her friends "My love" and my dumbass thought it was a special word she used only for me, and was convinced we were gay for each other. FML
Today, I sent an email to a girl I like about how I really feel about her. She later replied "Real funny, tell Michael to change his password!" FML
Today, I was talking to a co-worker about birth control. Ten minutes later, I went to my sent e-mails to copy and reuse an old e-mail and realized I had sent "I tried calling you but your birth control is not working" to a student. It was supposed to say "voicemail". FML
Today, I finally wrote a DM to the girl I'm in love with, telling her not to say yes if her ex asked her out, and instead to go out with me. I then chickened out and deleted the message, but then realised she'd still get the notification on her phone. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Use GMail. It has an undo send feature. Its a life saver. :)

Gmail is the shit. But the max time you have to undo is 10 seconds after you hit send lol

But... why would you enter her email address? Leave the field blank or enter your own or something... then if you accidently send it, who cares? Or better.. use MS Word or Notepad or something...

why do people keep emails they dont intend to send . . . its called a journal, keep one. YDI for not using a pen and paper every now and then

At least you sent it, you could have been too scared to ever send it and then never do anything about it. At least this way you did something.

well you shouldnt have put her email address in, until you were ready to send it! i never put email addresses into drafts. the email addy is the very last thing I enter in an email..because I know how easy it is to accidentally send it

That's why I don't write that sort of stuff in emails, even if I have no intention of sending it. On the other hand, this "accident" might turn out good for you, depending on her reaction. Good luck!

It's not stalker behaviour, it's not like she was spying on her and stuff, it's called expressing herself! Even if it's just in a e-journal sort-of-thing.
