Today, I gave my boyfriend the silent treatment. He put his Facebook status as "When your girlfriend finally shuts up for once". FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, it's been a few days since I decided to give this girl I like the silent treatment. I've been messaging off and on with her for a few weeks, but decided to stop for a bit, just to seem mysterious. When I logged on Facebook today, her status was, "So happy that annoying guy has stopped writing to me!" FML
Today, I got mad at my boyfriend and gave him the silent treatment. He still hasn’t noticed. It’s been four hours, and he just asked if I wanted to order pizza, assuming I was "thinking really hard about something." FML
Today, it's my girlfriend's birthday. To celebrate, I spent the day with her and then took her out to a really nice dinner. She is currently giving me the silent treatment because I didn't write "Happy Birthday" on her Facebook wall. FML
Today, my boyfriend changed his relationship status on Facebook to "Single" and his status to "I'm not kidding, leave your key on the counter." FML
Today, I heard my boyfriend on the phone to his brother saying that he didn’t know what it was, but he felt like he’d had a really good weekend, and he was feeling much less stressed. I’ve been giving him the silent treatment since we argued Friday morning. Guess I know why he had a good weekend. FML
Today, my boyfriend of five years gave me the silent treatment, refusing to talk to me or do anything more than glare at me during the entire three-hour drive we took this morning. Why? Because I slept with his best friend. In his dream last night. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me that his best friend of 10 years is giving him the silent treatment because he told her he's in a relationship. He's become a depressed wreck. When I asked him if he's secretly in love with her or something, he flipped a table over and told me to, "mind my own fucking business." FML
Today, I saw my boyfriend took me off his relationship status on Facebook. He just left “In a relationship” blank. This came after he added some girl. When I confronted him about it, he screamed at me to the point of tears, and told me to stop worrying about stupid shit. Apparently, I also ruined his day. FML
Today, my boyfriend had been distant for a while, didn't turn up for my birthday dinner, and gave no explanation. Turns out he was on a date that same afternoon. Two days later he announced his new "relationship" all over Facebook. When he saw I'd blocked him everywhere, he sent a "I miss you" text. Never seen anyone so audacious. FML
Today, I got into an argument, followed by the silent treatment from my boyfriend, because I told him that he should change his underwear daily. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

The silent treatment never works! The guy just enjoys it, "Ah, that peaceful, noiseless girlfriend."

Silence is golden. Duct tape is silver. Aren't you glad he didn't choose silver?

That was lame.

the silent treatment doesn't work on guys, it's more of a reward to them, if you want to punish them keep talking

I agree with Panda. Stereotypes are usually based on generalizations and generally girls talk a lot more than guys. And generally it annoys the hell out of guys. So Panda is correct.

If she isn't talking to you means you don't have to deal with the damn nagging... I honestly don't see how it's a punishment.

Girls actually don't talk "more" than guys, we just talk about different things. And girls generally talk about stupid shit that annoys guys.

Because ignoring people will fix any argument. Sounds a little childish to me.

Or he might have just posted it because he was hoping for her silent treatment to double in length.

What did you think would happen? He probably couldn't wait for you to shut up.

The longer OP is silent, the happier her boyfriend will be. OP sounds like a high maintenance control freak. Why did she feel she had to check his Facebook status after one day of giving him the silent treatment anyway?

#33 Just because she saw his status doesn't mean she checked his facebook page. If they're on each others' friend list then when he updates his status it automatically comes up in her news feed which is the first thing everyone sees after logging on. So she may not have meant to check it but it was just there when she logged on.

You're absolutely right Violet.
