Today, I got a birthday present from my boyfriend's mom. It was ProActiv acne solution. He tried to make me feel better by explaining it's because she wants to be able to include me in family pictures. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my boyfriend gave me acne cream for my birthday. FML
Today, it was my birthday. My boyfriend was kind enough to give me prescription strength deodorant. FML
Today, my boyfriend decided to gift me soap, a razor, and deodorant for my birthday. FML
Today, my mom went to the store. She said she was feeling generous, and had gotten everyone a little treat. My brothers each got candy and a movie. I got acne medication. FML
Today, I woke up next to my boyfriend. He gazed at me, stroked my cheek, and said, "Christ, you really need something for this acne." FML
Today, it's my birthday. I told my boyfriend I wanted to feel special even if for just one day. He said he would do the laundry for me. FML
Today, I got my hair done, eyebrows waxed, and a new expensive dress to impress my boyfriend. When I got home I asked him if he noticed anything different about me. He looked at me for one minute before asking, "Did you finally start using Proactive?" FML
Today, it was my birthday. My boyfriend had been telling me for the past two weeks that he had something planned for the occasion. His plan? Me watching TV with his parents, who hate me, while he went to work. His gift? A brand new Xbox 360 for himself. FML
Today, my parents spent more time, money, and effort on my boyfriend's birthday present than they ever have on any of mine. FML
Today, it's my birthday. I don't mind crappy gifts, but I have to wonder why the hell my boyfriend bought me a home enema kit. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Why are there so many people saying she deserves it? Some people wash their faces every day and still get acne because of bad genes or other factors.

whatever, proactiv works great and it's expensive so tell her that since she got you your first month's supply you expect her to keep it coming

Might be a bit harsh but think of it as a good thing. You get rid of your zit problem and it's free. You want to get rid of that shit anyway...that's just nasty.

I agree with you 22. sometimes acne is a hard thing to control. medicine doesn't always work. but that's really ****** up for his mom to do. Id punch her in the face

Proactive does NOT work! i tried it and it makes u break out really bad, and then u keep waiting for it to get better (bcuz most acne solutions get worse before they get better) but it never does. anyway, that was really rude of her

While ProActive is not the best present (and kind of embarrassing for someone to give it to you), I think your boyfriend's mom was just concerned. Some people get a lot of acne and can't help it, she was trying to help you out with it. I can still see how you're upset though, and your boyfriend's explanation was just rude.

haha that's not that bad, but his explanation is sketchy since they can airbrush out any acne....and that's also kinda funny cause when my family asked me what I wanted for my birthday I asked for ProActiv even though I don't really have bad acne, just the occasional breakout, and I didn't get any.
