Today, I accidentally deleted my entire email inbox. Everything from the last 3 years. EV-ER-Y-THING. FML

Today, I woke up to find out that my phone, which contained all of my pictures and videos from the past year, had completely crashed. Despite trying everything, I couldn't recover any of the data, even from the cloud backup. All those memories, gone forever. FML

The past that suits you best
Today, I found out that sorting and deleting old unnecessary emails to free up space meant reliving the most horrific memories I've ever experienced. Worse yet, I have to keep certain old messages in case these things ever come up again. FML

Good luck with that
Today, I got an email from a company that fired me over two weeks ago. It turns out they forgot to download all my work before deleting my account, and they want me to get it back off the cloud. FML

Today, I deleted a load of junk that was messing up my mother's computer. I don't know how I'm going to tell her I accidentally wiped out all of her wedding photos. FML

Time to move
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

Today, my husband accidentally erased some pictures from our hard drive. No worries, nothing major: just everything from our wedding and the birth of our first child. FML

Today, I was trying to back up my messaging information on an app so if it ever got deleted I wouldn’t lose all my information. It ended up glitching out and erasing all my contacts and messages. Now I can’t even message back the guy I like that I’m not ignoring him. There goes that relationship. FML

IMPORTANT
Today, I was cleaning out my email folders and found a message I'd sent myself five years ago with the subject "IMPORTANT." I opened it, expecting something useful. It was a reminder saying, "Remember to look up what this is about." I apparently trusted future me far too much. FML

Trash folder. Why the **** would you save three years of emails? I have five emails in my inbox -_-

I don't think any of you understand how important e-mails are. I have 2814 unread e-mail messages in my inbox currently. All of which is junk I've accumulated from the past few years and not one worth keeping. If they were ever deleted I'd FREAK. Do you realize how long it would take me to get back up to 2814 unread e-mails!!!! Not to mention all the important e-mails!!!! This is defintely an FML, not a too terrible one but a FML none the less.

So? I mean, this could be a FML..but elaborate. Why does it matter? What was in there. Cuz right now it just seems like your desperate for unnessecary sympathy. But, if it really is that important, youcould go Get them outta the trash folder. And if not, from now on you should probably put your important messages in a saved folder, outta your inbox.

How is it possible to "accidentally" delete that many e-mails?

People keep hold of emails? I just read 'em and delete them. Not an FML.
