Today, I came home in a really good mood, and I greeted my husband with a grin and a "Hi, babe!" He just muttered, "Why can't you just DIE?" and continued playing his video game. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I felt frisky, so I did my hair and put on make-up and some lingerie. I walked into the living room, where my husband was playing a video game. He glanced up, said, "Oh, for fuck's sake." and made me wait nearly 15 minutes for him to reach a save-game point. FML
Today, I noticed my husband was acting moody, and I asked him what was wrong. He replied that he didn't know, so trying to lighten the mood, I facetiously said, "It's 'cause you're stuck with me, isn't it?" He nodded, trundled off, and hasn't shown his face since. FML
Today, all I wanted was to spend some time with my husband, since we're always very busy. He couldn't be bothered to put down his video game. Guess I'm forever alone, even in a relationship. FML
Today, I went into my husband's man cave to ask him a question. He was blasting a song about being an unemployed single loser, singing along, and playing video games. What the fuck did I marry? FML
Today, I came home upset about the sexism in my work place. I just wanted to be alone, but my husband insisted we talk about it. I noticed he kept looking over and one of his hands was moving. He was playing video games the entire time I was spilling my guts. FML
Today, after a 16-hour work day, I came home to my husband. I talked to him for about 10 minutes, then realized that he wasn't answering me but had his headset on and was talking on Xbox live. Not even playing a game, just talking. FML
Today, I came home to find my boyfriend playing with himself. He got mad and said I "killed the mood". How? By coming home. FML
Today, I was having horrible morning sickness. I was violently throwing up, could hardly breathe, and was gasping for air between each round of puking. My husband, in the other room playing video games, snapped and shouted, "Why can't you just be quiet?!" FML
Today, when I got home from work I was pretty "in the mood" so I put on some cute undies and a tank top and went to get my boyfriends attention, he was so into his new computer game all I got was a half smile and a pat on the head. FML
Today, my husband said a cheery, "Hi!" to me after 4 hours of nonstop Zoom calls. I spun around happily and greeted him back. Turns out he just joined another Zoom call. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

My guess is he was talking to other players. If not, pack your bags.

Don't worry, OP, intense matches of CoD can really **** people up.

I get into games but I'm not so far in that I would not acknowledge my wife. Op he might have been in the game or he might want you dead . 50/50 either way. Probably best if you ask him or did a hole and show it to him and then tell him he will be taking a dirt nap if he does that again
rosenkrieger223 24
You beat me to it: This would be my guess as well. was the first thought that popped into my mind. Also, some people do get that into their games, where they can/will ignore even their SO.

He was talking to the game, but either way it is quite annoying if someone interrupts you, even worse if they make a scene out of it.

12, if he did want to kill her she would just be digging her own grave.

I get into my games were I ignore people , sometimes I do say stuff that is intentionally ment for the players on the other team but I sometimes say it to like my brother.

I tend to just utter lots of colorful language, in the vein of dudes like Cr1TiKaL (if you don't know who that is, then just look him up on YouTube). I usually stop short of hurling my controller through the screen. That said, I'm not really into online gaming so much. I'm stuck in the '90s or some shit.

The time where I play games online is the only time my parents will, and have, ever hear me cuss.
TheNewGuy03 29
...well, ****. I missed the entirety of my point in commenting on this. Yeah, he was talking to/at the game. He's probably not secretly seething and plotting your gruesome murder. But it would be nice if he actually addressed you.
alialley 10
Yep, because saying "why don't you just die", regardless of the circumstances or tone used, is a ground for divorce.

Get a baseball bat and destroy the T.V. infront of him
subwaysurfers 13
Yeah, ruin the T.V I watch all my shows on because my boyfriend just so happened to be using it when he got me upset.
Imhere4fml 24
You do realize he could just get the system and connect it to another tv..
BlakesHonestLie 8
See that's too harsh. Just go to the breaker box and flip the breaker for that room. That'll get his attention and not destroy anything, as long as you have a UPS or a decent surge protector.

98, That can actually short circuit the console, not an electrician. But it happened to me and I would've been less pissed if someone took a bat to it :/ had to get a new one because it completely ****** over. So Never, ever pull the plug or the main switch, toss candies or Cheerios at his head. Or what my woman does is keep poking the back of my head :/ LOL
Brelywi 15
He was talking to something in his game, I'm sure :)
KM96 24
I hope so ... :S Otherwise, freaky!
landon_loe11 16
Even if he wasn't I'm sure he was just kidding, I mean who actually says that to their wife and means it?!
sig4life 18
Absolutely! It is hard to hear and acknowledge someone with both ears covered and a game blasting in your ear. I have learned to put the earphones around my neck and turn up the volume so I can hear my wife. Otherwise I would be divorced.

Very true, OPs boyfriend must suck if he is saying that.

One of my instructors at basic training told our flight that when he plays CoD, he does so with his Kevlar helmet on. Apparently, his wife finds this to be immature, but I find it to be awesome.
Harshdfml 14
She said husband!

#62 apparently you're a jackass too. they were relating a simple experience. gtfo if you don't wanna hear about CoD. OP, I'm sorry. that's what happens with gamers. you're in second place. hope you figure things out.
Han1156 23
It could of been Dark Souls in which case I completely understand that game will make anyone rage.
Kazze 31
165: Dead Space 2 is the reason my old phone has a shattered screen and a missing volume button. That game is the almost as bad.

He's not someone worth staying for.
dude1122332 9
Would you seriously divorce your significant other because he/she'd rather play a game than say hello?
cmbar831 14
If he sacred like that all of the time, then yes.
finnrambo 13
yes he really should stop being sacred all the time....?
cmbar831 14
I meant to say "acted" stupid autocorrect
Tezoma 28
If he acted like that all the time, they probably wouldn't be married. As you should let sleeping dogs lie, you should leave gamers to game. I know I don't like being pestered while trying to play my games.
mb2_native 15
8, if he's not worth staying with over getting mad over a game than your just not worth staying with :/ I would normally apologize, but no. I say that because you would break up/divorce people for stupid reasons and just cause heartbreak.. I'm an asshole and I wouldn't even do that :/

If you didn't know there were issues in your relationship now's the time to sit with him and talk about it. Maybe he's pissed about something. Try to work it out.
Batterypost 23
I'm pretty sure that he was just screaming at his video-games, not OP.
KingCeltic77 18
He was probably talking to the camping noobs.
everton99 16
**** camping ass bitches.
mb2_native 15
I hate campers, there a pain in the ass, especially the ones with a shotgun pointing at the only entrance :/
Mauskau 36
Let's just hope he was talking to someone in the game.
laden_swallow09 35
I'm certain that's exactly the situation, here. OP's FML here is her hubby ignored her enthusiastic greeting, instead displaying equal enthusiasm with pwning n00bz.
thats_my_job 11
I think it's ridiculous for you to take that personally. I think he needs to get a girl with some personality. So good luck with that.
klutz44 28
Calm down. Clearly OP thought it was a little bit funny, she did post on FML.

#13 I hope that's a joke... Otherwise that's an incredibly harsh thing to say.
