Today, after complaining that I had nothing to write about in my weekly journal for college, my professor suggested in front of everyone that I should get a girlfriend. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my friend thought it would be funny to announce to the class that I finally got a girlfriend. I received a standing ovation. FML
Today, during class, a girl had suggested how I, a 16 year-old guy, would be a high maintenance girlfriend. We sat and debated this, allowing for other people to listen in and agree with her, and eventually the entire class agreed with her. Even the teacher. FML
Today, I gathered the courage to participate in a class discussion. My professor laughed at me. FML
Today, the professor I've had a crush on informed me that there's only one way left I could still pass his course. Thinking this was an attempt to flirt with me, I told him I'd do anything he could imagine. He then looked confused when he asked me to write an essay. FML
Today, I wrote my boyfriend a love letter during class and told him to read it when he got home. He texted me later asking me why I gave him my school assignment. I must have handed the love letter in to my teacher. FML
Today, I gathered the courage and wrote a love letter to put in the girl I like's school bag, at the end of classes. I felt anxious for a response. Her bag turned out to be her cousin's, and I became a joke in the classroom. FML
Today, while writing a midterm, my period came unexpectedly. Too bad my male professor was the one to notice and not me. FML
Today, after I'd offered to make suggestions to my partner after she finished writing an essay for her college class, and she'd read my suggestions, we argued about every single point I wrote down. Despite telling her she didn't have to take any suggestions we argued for 2 days about it. The professor had the same notes as mine. FML
Today, I spent the day studying with one of my classmates whom I've just met. While studying, she kept bragging about her boyfriend and decided to show me a picture of him. It was my boyfriend. FML
Today, I was hitting on a girl who was getting ready to walk into the same class as me. We were waiting outside the room, so I told her that I'd heard the professor for the course was a total bitch. We walked into the room. I sat down at a desk. She stood behind the podium. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Poetrywriter12 - Have you BEEN to uni? If not, then you have no idea what you're talking about. If so, then I'm severely disappointed with you. Sure studies are important, but the most important part of college is to LIVE.

To be fair, you were complaining about basically having a boring life, and the Professor offered you a solution. Go get em', tiger! ;)

Hey now, just because your a college kid doesn't mean you NEED a girlfriend. I'm in college and I don't have a boyfriend. No worries. Just don't rush. :)

Get together with your prof's other half and write in IMMENSE detail what you did to them, leave nothing out. That should keep them quiet for a bit

Maybe you should.

Wow. What a blatant disrespect. It would have been much more appropriate to say that privately. Not that what the prof said was appropriate at all anyway. File a grievance with the college if they have a grievance process. Keep doing what you feel is right for your college experience OP.

File a grievance? He told him to get a girlfriend so he'd have something to write about. Embarrassing? Yes, but not anything you can't get over. If you don't have something to write about in a week of your life at college that might be the best advice you can give. That or put down the Xbox controller and get out of your dorm.

It wasn't the instructors right to say anything like that. How would you feel if it was you. You'd be embarrassed too. Embarrassment like that can cause emotional trauma.

Emotional trauma? Really? This is what's wrong with kids today. They've been coddled so much they can't even handle minor embarrassment like this. If I had complained to my parents about a comment like this, they would have laughed, told me to grow a thicker skin, and get over it.

Emotional trauma from being told to get a girlfriend? I would've answered back with a "Does your wife count?" xD

I don't necessarily agree with "emotional trauma", but that phrase earned me my masters. Just sayin.

This is what you are doing....in college? Keeping journals is the kind of stuff I was doing at 8 years old and in college I was doing actual work.

I'm guessing it's a creative writing class.

Still reeks of kindergarten

Get a boyfriend, just to spite your professor.

I think you mean girlfriend. Unless of course, OP is gay.
gracehi 33
I think he meant to get a boyfriend instead of a girlfriend, so the professor will say, "Heeeeeeeey...THAT wasn't the homework I gave you!!!"

Oh my, your professor made a joke. Your life must be awful.

Well the FML was published smart-ass, so take it up with the people that voted 'YES' and the Mods. Otherwise shut the **** up.

Women are a huge distraction. Get done with collage then worry about girlfriends. Good luck OP
