Today, I collided heads at a soccer game and needed 13 stitches in my head. I texted all my contacts to let them know I was in the hospital. I got back one response that said "bitch got what you deserve" it was from my cousin. No one else ever texted me back. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was playing rugby. I was tackled very hard at the end of a play, and I got up to find my head bleeding profusely. Not one person offered to drive me to the ER. I had to drive myself to get six stitches in the face. FML
Today, while stepping out of the shower, I slipped and cut my head. I went to the hospital, got 8 stitches and was tested for head trauma. After hours of ignoring my calls and texts, my girlfriend finally responded, very angrily. Why? Today is her birthday, and I "selfishly made it about me." FML
Today, I texted my boyfriend on the way to the hospital to tell him I needed stitches, after my brother's dog bit me on the breast. His response? "Pics or it didn't happen." FML
Today, I received a serious concussion and several stitches to the back of my head. The attacker? My mom. FML
Today, after getting rear ended by a car, I texted my husband to let him know I was in the hospital. His response? "I'm at Taco Bell." FML
Today, while practicing my gymnastics routine on the uneven bars, I was so distracted by my teammates' conversation about a party later that I miscalculated my flip and smacked my head on a bar. Ten stitches and a concussion later, I was left alone in the hospital. FML
Today, at a soccer game held by my girlfriend's family, some idiot went to kick the ball, missed by a mile, and hit the ground hard. So I started a slow, sarcastic clap. I got a load of angry looks, followed by verbal abuse when we found out he'd split his head open on the ground. FML
Today, I was hit by a car. I called my girlfriend from the hospital and asked her if she could pick me up. She responded by saying "Fuck you, you aways tell me what to do!" and hung up. FML
Today, I was rushed to hospital with two ribs sticking out of my chest, with blood everywhere, but did I get sympathy from my sister? No, I got accused of being hit by a forklift on purpose to ruin her birthday party, then she tried to rip my bandages off to "prove I was faking the whole thing" and split my stitches. FML
Today, I had a horrible head injury that prevented me from going to my girlfriend's birthday party, and when my mom answered my phone, she thought my mom was a girl I was cheating with. Even after posting on Facebook, Twitter, and Snapchat, in places she hasn't blocked me on, she just commented that I was faking. FML

Sometimes digging for sympathy and attention backfires.

Texting is a stupid form of communication. Why not call them?

if you were able to take the time to text EVERYONE on your contacts list and explain to them what happened, you must have been ok. you probably just wanted attention... why would you tell EVERYONE? Why not just your close friends? usually people don't HAVE to tell everyone because usually their parents or friend will do that anyway... sounds like you just wanted attention

I think it's pretty safe to say you're the friend that nobody likes.

I gave you a YDI because stitches don't really count as "in the hospital" since you're in the ER and you go in, get the stitches and leave. If you were transported, you'd go in, get checked over, imaged, stitched, and let go. This sounds like a total "pity me" effort and thus deserving of a YDI. I'd never text EVERYONE on my contacts list even if I were in the hospital. Plus, I played and still play soccer; sports injuries like this are the kind you wear like a badge and let other people ask you about when you run into them, not something you brag about to everyone. "Oh my gosh, what happened?" "I had this wicked header in my game this weekend, smashed heads pretty hard, but I got the ball. It's no big deal." Also, if this is something you do regularly, your cousin may have been spot on.

like some people said here already, digging and begging for sympathy is just as bad as letting them find out on their own. It is really awkward. YDI.
