Today, after spending a day in the ER and a day in hospital, I was recovering from emergency surgery. My boyfriend left to eat and didn't come back. He texted me 4 hours later that he was drinking with his friends and that he loved his "brown eyed girl". My eyes aren't brown. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I went to the hospital emergency room to visit my boyfriend who had badly sliced his leg open. It ended with me being admitted with a possible head trauma, after hitting my head on the wall and floor as I collapsed at the sight of his wound. FML
Today, I was recovering from an operation. After I felt better, I checked my phone. There were 35 missed calls and angry text messages from my boyfriend asking why I wasn't at his house to cook his dinner. FML
Today, I found out that while I was in the ICU for having had a life-threatening seizure, my boyfriend was out partying with other girls. His excuse was that he needed to find a new girl if I died. FML
Today, I finally got to come home after hours spent in a locked down ER after a car accident. My injuries were non life-threatening, but pretty damn painful. I asked my sister to pick up my pain meds from the pharmacy for me. She got drunk and "lost them", AKA gave them to her dirtbag boyfriend. FML
Today, I had leg surgery. While I was recovering in the hospital, my boyfriend dumped me. I then had to ride home, a 2-hour drive, listening to my mother and aunt tell me he was the best thing to happen to me, and that I'll never find a better man. Then the morphine wore off. FML
Today, I went to the hospital due to extreme sickness. My boyfriend saw this as an opportune time to take another girl out since I was "otherwise preoccupied." FML
Today, my boyfriend of six years is in the hospital after having a stroke. While being transferred to another hospital, I came to our home to get his phone to call his family, but instead was treated to text messages and voicemails from his other girlfriends. At least 4 of them so far. FML
Today, I went to the emergency room with my boyfriend, only to sit there for 3 hours waiting for him to be seen, then having an argument with him about how impatient I am because they never called his name. FML
Today, I found out my boyfriend has been cheating on me for months. It all started while I was in the hospital, he says, because we were supposed to go out that day, but then I "had to go and get sick." He blames my emergency surgery for his infidelity. FML
Today, I went to a concert with my new boyfriend. I had a panic attack halfway through and an ambulance picked me up. My boyfriend met my parents for the first time drunk, in the emergency room. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Even if he weren't apparently cheating, that's rather inconsiderate of him to be out partying when you're recovering from being in the ER

Maybe they were listening to that Van Morrison song while drinking...

Probably knows fully well that you don't have brown eyes but is quoting the song that is likely playing in his head (it is in mine now). As for going drinking, it's often a good way to de-stress and you being in hospital is likely very stressful.

If this has happened before or keeps happening I would suggest breaking up with him. Sounds to me it's a fairly one sided relationship. Hope your wounds heal from whatever surgery you had to get!

Here's the thing with some people - they hate the hospital atmosphere and seeing loved ones in pain, so after what they consider a decent interval, they will make their escape. Doesn't mean they don't care. Drinking with friends might be a way of dealing with stress, and if wasn't just meant to be a fun reference to the song, the eye colour error may be a genuine mistake. My brother once copped hell from his girlfriend of six months for writing about her beautiful blue eyes on her birthday card. Her eyes were green. He'd just never noticed - and he loved her a lot; he married her later.

I'm not sure why everyone is dogging on this comment because it's quite actually on point, I remember when I went into labor not only did my son's father eat all the food in the guest kitchen in the hospital twice i might add, but he nearly passed out from all the stress n anxiety he then ran to the store to grab two very large tall cans of beer but in this case he came back more relaxed, sometimes when your stressed you do stupid things and even more so you have horrible scatter brain, like you can know something n some how still get it wrong, I do hope he really is not cheating on you tho an in your time of need he is unable to suck up his issues to be with you unless of course he really is just being a douche then you truly deserve someone better who csn no matter what be by your side
