Today, I found out my boyfriend can name each and every Pokémon, but can't remember my birthday. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Today, my boyfriend caught me in a lie about being on my period. He memorized my menstrual cycle, but still forgot that today is my birthday. FML
Today, my boyfriend forgot our anniversary. But it's okay; I wasn't expecting anything after he forgot my birthday, Valentine's Day, and my name. FML
Today, while I was driving my 27 year old boyfriend 8 hours to a Pokémon event, he realized he didn't bring his DS with him. He cried about it. FML
Today, my boyfriend of 2 1/2 years still refuses to memorize my phone number or remember my birthday because he says there is a limited amount of space in his brain and he does not want to push any important information out. FML
Thanks, babe
Today, it’s my birthday. My boyfriend of almost 4 years completely forgot. FML
Today, I was talking with my friend-turned boyfriend and cutely told him that I could no longer remember all the things that he used to do that bothered me. He told me he could remember every one of mine and listed them all off for me. FML
Today, my boyfriend got angry because I laughed when he asked me if he should retire from being a Pokemon Trainer. He was serious. He's also 21. FML
Memento
Today, I found a notebook labeled "IMPORTANT INFO" in my boyfriend's nightstand. Looking in, I saw he'd written down a bunch of information about me, like my birthday and things I like. When I asked, he said, "I'm forgetful and didn't want to accidentally be a dick." FML
Today, my boyfriend decided that lunch with his guys was more important than spending time with me. This is the second year in a row that he has cancelled on me. How do I remember the date so well? It's my birthday. FML
Today, my current boyfriend and my ex-boyfriend got into a fight about when my birthday is. They were both wrong. FML

Start acting like a pickchue he'll pay more attention to you. Give his balls a thundershock; that'll get his attention.

Well, he's not going to Raichu a love song. Don't be Gloom and act like a Mankey. Go be Chansey with another man and hopefully he won't be a Mr. Mime. Also, don't tell your Ma to choke him. Otherwise, you might have Ninetails to tell your children. ...too far?

^^ Nope, not too far! That was good.

You should learn the Pokérap so you two can have common beliefs.

Well...here's some more tips. If the situation turns Gastly, make sure you Rapidly dash back home for some Shellder. At least he wasn't a pervert and Pikachu in the bathroom. Good thing he didn't try to make you Drowzee because then it would be Onyx-eptible. If that happened, you would be Missing, no?

How is you being a girl at all relevant? Pokemon is for all.
dre_bro11 12
What's that meant to mean 'and I'm a girl'? Stop being stereotypical and sexist.
z3vil 11
I'm a girl and have every pokemon game, I even hung a pokemon toy in my car. who cares if you're a girl, girls can play video games, it's not that weird.

I'm a little more concerned about the fact that #17 seems to have put up a real picture of herself... and also seems young and naive enough to believe that it's okay for her to use her full name as a screen name.
Soloman212 28
Pokéman is the singular form of pokémon, obviously.
flockz 20
i wouldnt find pokemon as entertaining if it had "man" in it...
LOLbomb 1
Seriously, pokemon is annoying and childish to me. Of course, you're entitled to your interests, but God Almighty. First of all, the only word that a pokemon can say is their own name, which makes me wanna punch a baby when 2 pokemon are having a casual conversation. Second, the voice acting is just simply awful and boring. Third, every episode is the same damn thing. They start by walking some trail, they battle someone new, and then everthing is just A okay! With the occasional team rocket intervention. Simply annoying and repetetive series. :/

And yes, I was refering to the television series. But ever pokemon game is the same to me.

wild LOLbomb appears. dolphincheddar used common sense! it's a one-hit KO! wild LOLbomb fainted. but srsly. i played pokemon when i was young, I may find it a bit kiddish now but who the **** cares its a game, not to mention rated e for.. oh ya. everyone? don't diss the pokemon bro. the founders of it are some rich ass people. there's even a pokemon amusement park in japan. which is pretty epic

I like how 17 changed her pic after what 54 said haha
LOLbomb 1
145, It goes to a certain extent when, in this case, the OP's boyfriend is probably like 20. Considering that there are Looney Tunes, Nickolodeon, and Disneyworld amusement parks, I wouldn't be surprised if there was a Pokemon one as well. Fact of the matter is that ADULTS go to those places for the rides (You'd have to be well over 4 ft tall to ride a standard rollercoaster) and the CHILDREN go for the themes. Kids couldn't care less what the point of a program is. But this is FML. I doubt there are very many children on this site. No matter how you look at it, pokemon was invented for younger audiences. I never said I didn't watch it when I was little. But know that I think back, I was stupid when I was younger. Everyone was. *Epic Boss Battle Music* Wild Lolbomb uses facepalm. It's super-effective!

i see what you mean, but I find your realistic pokemon reference at the end to be ironic to your argument

And yet, you've watched it enough times to have memorized the plot line...

(Directed at 75 but not limited to) lol. Why would anyone care about a birthday it's just a meaningless number. 7 billion people have a birthday each year whatever makes you think birthdates have any symbiotic meaning? On the other hand... Pokemon is a way of life
fyriwolf666 8
75 - There are plenty of girls that love Pokemon too. And why shouldn't a guy like Pokemon? I personally remember Pokemon fondly from my childhood, I see nothing wrong with that.

excuse me OP, but why are you on FML and not in the kitchen?

Tadeusz_fml 5
Stop attacking the people you perceive to be anti-pokemon. Despite the fact that they are allowed to think that pokemon is pathetic and to a great extent it is, the comment is that the chap in question knows all the pokemon monsters but not his girlfriend's birthday. In this case the girl was complaining because evidently the chap takes pokemon more seriously than he does her, and that is pathetic. it's also pathetic that either you're all missing the point or you all genuinely sympathise with him.
webber628 0
not at all, while playing, you subconcioulsly ( sorry for spelling) learn the names, but a birthday comes once a year. if he dosent memorize it he should write it down but pokemon has nothing to do wit this anyway
iLOLatURpain69 7
Well pokemon has a song. Make a song about your date of birth so he will remember.

Well, op, he DOES have to catch 'em all.

Not too special...I know many nerds that are like that and if I'm honest - birthdays are hard to remeber =/ numbers in general are harder to remeber then names
Raori 25
spelling is also hard to remember too.

numbers are hard to remember?

priorities, he's doing it right. how else do you expect him to be a pokemon master?
