Today, I caught my boyfriend of two years cheating on me. Instead of the usual excuses, he panicked and claimed he was my boyfriend's long-lost twin brother. He even tried to put on a fake accent. FML

Today, after two weeks visiting my boyfriend's family in rural Mississippi, we finally returned to civilization. Unfortunately, I pick up on accents really easily, and now I sound like a hick. My boyfriend thinks it's cute, but I hate it. FML

Today, my boyfriend of a year decided to confess to me that almost everything he has told me in our relationship has been a lie. This includes telling me that he was single when we first met, telling me that he loved me, and telling me that I was beautiful. FML

Dealbreaker
Today, I was talking online to this guy, and everything was great. He then sent a voice message and his accent was a deal breaker. FML

Who would want to sound like they're from Massachusetts? Thats a retarded accent.

First off, there is no "Massachusetts accent." There's Boston. But unless you come directly from Boston or a town adjacent to it, chances are, you don't have a Boston accent. There's no accent that covers all of Massachusetts. And I fail to see how an accent can sound "retarded."

I LOVE the boston accent. LOVE LOVE LOVE it... maybe because a lot of hockey players have that fabulous mix of Boston/Canada accent. :)

I used to have a very strong southern accent when I was younger. Then I moved to New Orleans, which is still very much the south, and was made fun of and mocked. Then there was also the issue about not knowing French, but that's another issue. Now that I'm older women seem to like southern accents and my accent only comes out after 5-7 shots, when I'm pissed off, or if I work on a car and I'm talking to someone over the music all day. When I wake up the day after either scenario I go back to my now normal voice that's quiet, calm, and strange. Every time I get pulled over the officer thinks I'm on drugs/medications because of my voice. Needless to say, if the OP had a friend from the south, they would have known that it was a fake accent. If the OP dated him just because of his accent this proves my point and adds to my despair. Either way a two month relationship doesn't mean your life is ruined, and you'll be disappointed much more when someone tells a lie that matters...

I bet that you faked something too in those 2 months time.

If he's still around, make sure to mention this "fact".

Omg, hahahaha. I guess he wasn't hoping for anything long-term at first.

Who would want to fake a southern accent anyway? They're so annoying.

If he had tried that down here (Alabama) everyone would've known he was just being a douche. Sucks that you couldn't tell. #63 - Not all of us have horrifyingly southern accents, but more of a slight accent. But we can't help it. So... yeah. I actually tend to think northern accents sound more irritating.

I agree Mohlee, I'm from Alabama as well, it's fairly simply to pick out someone trying to imitate a southern accent, I think. I tend to lean more to not liking northern accents, that nasaly/stopped up tone is just as bad as our twang in everything we say.

I'd actually be really happy that he no longer had a southern accent. I always wonder if it's be easier to pick up women if I were to fake a British or Australian accent, those guys have such an unfair advantage.

hmmm wonder what else he's faking... I'd ditch him, sounds like a habitual liar to me.

A fake Southern accent is so easy to detect. You must be either deaf or demented.
