Today, I found out I have an option on my phone to postpone the sending of my text messages. I thought it would be cute to send my boyfriend texts saying, "I love you and sweet dreams" every night at midnight for a month. He broke up with me and now I can't figure out how to stop the texts. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me via text message. Every 20 minutes or so, I'll get a notification that I have a new message, and I check it just to find that same message sitting there. I'm being trolled by my own phone. FML
Today, I broke up with my boyfriend of 2 years because I was tired of his childishness and anger, so he decided to send me 540 random text messages of scrambled letters in order to mess up my phone as well, as make me pay 20 cents for each message. FML
Today, I was trying to break up with my boyfriend over text. I was being really careful to phrase it nicely, and I hit send with a sigh of relief. Except I sent the text to my mom, who now keeps sending me unsolicited advice about my "love life" with an occasional "You go, girl!" FML
Today, I sent out a Happy Snow Day text to 20 of my closest friends. My boyfriend, who doesn't have an iPhone, didn't realize it was a group text. He sent back a text breaking up with me. To all the people in the group message. FML
Today, I received a text from my boyfriend breaking up with me. Not only was this a bit cowardly but he'd also sent it in a reply to our last interaction on our phones, a group chat with some of our friends, who started commenting with sad face emojis before I had even had the chance to see it. FML
Today, at exactly midnight, I get a text from my boyfriend saying we were done. I had just seen him 4 hours ago when we were out celebrating my birthday, and asked why he didnt just tell me then. He replies 'I couldn't break up with you on your birthday but i wanted it to be over ASAP' FML
Today, my boyfriend of two years sent me a text message saying, "Don't worry I'm gonna break up with her soon. Love you." 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, I woke up to a text from my boyfriend that said, "Dude, I think she knows I'm going to break up with her." FML
Today, I got a text from my girlfriend saying she needed more phone credit, so I bought her more and got another message saying "Great, now I have enough credit for this..." as she spelled out a three page message breaking up with me. Yes, I paid for her to break up with me via text. FML

my now ex boyfriend used to text me "good morning babe" every morning when he got up for at work at 7 a.m. It was sweet at first...but having to wake up at 7 to the same robotic words every morning got REALLY old.

I agree with most of the people in this reply thread It's not cute having someone text you "good night" every ******* night, especially at midnight when it's likely to wake you up. I don't know in what world that would be sweet.

Fail. Type it out yourself. I would be pretty offended if I got the exact same automatic text every single day.

My boyfriend and I are 2000 miles apart for the summer and I text him goodnight and goodmorning everyday and he likes it. Idk everyone is different I guess. I agree that automating it takes out a lot, if not all, of the significance though. I think the OP was just excited about trying a new feature on her phone, but she should have thought it a little more, a month of automated messages would get annoying.

YDI. Being sent a text like that every night at midnight would get boring fast. What made you think that was a good idea?

Besides the fact that its automated, I think its sweet. I think any of the guys I've dated would have found it cute... just, not automated. However, tres awkward that you can't stop it. He probably thinks you're a creeper now.

because that's not creepy at all to be sitting in bed at midnight every night and get a text saying i love you sweet dreams! because EVERY guy finds that cute to be freaked out at midnight every night thirty or thirty one times in a row

Only girls would like to get that message every single night! Guys don't look @ that stuff as cute they see it as annoying!
