Today, I came home sick. After a while I received a text message. I thought it was a sweet "How are you baby?" from my boyfriend. It wasn't. He sent: "Hey, I'm going to work now. Please do not disturb. Thank you!" FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was stuck home with a cold when my boyfriend's best friend sent me a text saying, "You doing alright?" I replied, thinking he was talking about my health. He replied, "I'm surprised you're taking the breakup so well." What breakup? Mine. He was ten minutes too soon. FML
Today, I woke up feeling awful, having caught the same illness my boyfriend had last night. When he was sick, I skipped my friend's baby shower to take care of him. Now that I'm sick, he goes to a friend's place, says to call if I need him, then turns his phone off. Seriously. FML
Today, my boyfriend took a day off from work because he felt "sick". I thought he might come see me since he hadn't come over in a while. Nope, he went to hang out with his ex instead. FML
Today, my boyfriend called work because he is sick. Then he called me four times while I was working, to complain that I was working, and then he got mad when I told him I was sick and worked a double shift two days in a row, because apparently that's "insensitive" of me. FML
Today, after a hard day's work and emotional argument with my best friend, I sent my boyfriend a text telling him how much I loved him and cherished him in the hopes he would cheer me up with a romantic reply. He said "Sorry, I've only got 8 texts left." FML
Today, I was sick and had a migraine. Being sick turns me into a big baby, and I told my boyfriend I didn't want to be alone. Two hours into my shift, he texted me saying he "needs to let off some steam because he hadn't in a long time." Guess who ended up staying home alone until his drunk ass needed to be taken care of. 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 sent my boyfriend a sweet text message, since he recently complained that I'm rarely romantic. Instead of being happy, he decided that since it's so out of character for me, I must be cheating on him and must have only sent it out of guilt. FML
Today, my boyfriend texted me saying, "I can come over today. She thinks I've got work." I think he had the wrong number. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me to stay home, because he wanted to come by to give me a birthday surprise. Later on, he came by, posted a note, rung the bell and left. The note was a break up note. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I hate it when people don't get the point of the comments section is to comment on the FML or that the point of scrolling is to ignore comments you don't want to read.

it could mean he's cheating. more likely if he was also "working overtime"

Foe, don't hold it against Tictac. She just sees a paragraph and gets intimidated.

And here I was thinking I was missing something for not understanding how this was an FML. Nope, she's just a self-centered bitch.

I don't see how this means your life is ******. Your boyfriend does not need to cater to your every whim, he does not need to baby you. You're sick, take some medicine and get some rest, end of story. And yeah, I don't like people texting/calling me at work(unless its an emergency). People have bosses who frown upon that kind of thing. And the way he worded it makes you think you bug him a lot. Stop being so needy.

Eh, sounds like a mass text to me. I'm betting you and several friends text him often, and he doesn't need the distraction at work. It's especially annoying if whoever is texting him gets pissy if he doesn't reply immediately to every text. That's why I don't text very often; it feels intrusive.

I literally said "So..?" out loud. We should seriously start some sort of petition to ban all these "My boyfriend said something that slightly touched the borderline of not being nice" FMLs.
