Today, I got an e-mail from a guy I'd had a one night stand with. He wanted to get together to talk about it. Turns out he's in rehab and he wanted to address the biggest mistakes he'd ever made in his life. I am a on a drug addict's list of regrets. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I, someone who has experienced only one romantic relationship in my 35 years (which ended 8 years ago), was hit on by a homeless drug felon client at work. FML
Today, I drunk texted a guy I like. We'd met at an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting. FML
Today, I went on a first date with a guy I really hit it off with. Then he admitted that he was a recovering heroin addict and had to cut our date short to go to the methadone clinic. When I got home, I realized that my wallet was missing $40. I think he lied about the "recovering" part. FML
Today, I found out the guy I've been pursuing for six months doesn't date people in recovery. That's literally how we met. FML
Today, I found out that the reason why the guy I took home from the bar seemed to understand everything about me instantly was because he was my ex's secret drug dealer. FML
Today, I found out that while I was attending AA meetings to help understand how to help my boyfriend of 7 years when he got back from rehab, that he was not in rehab at all. He was on vacation. With his wife. FML
Today, I received a text from the guy I'm into, thanking me for helping him drunkenly stumble back to his apartment last night. He ended it with, "How long did you stay?" Apparently, he doesn't remember confessing his secret love for me, or the fantastic kiss that followed. FML
Today, I called my boyfriend over and over again and he never answered. His mom just called me and asked how I was holding up. I asked her what she meant and she had to tell me he checked himself into rehab because he was addicted to heroin. FML
Today, while trying to have a serious conversation with my husband about his drug use over text, he came home. Drunk. FML
Today, my one-night stand decided he wanted to meet my parents. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

yeah...one night stands are something a lot of people regret. Maybe you shouldn't be so easy.

I don't know why you're so offended. In rehab, one of the steps is making an inventory of everything you did that was harmful to yourself, that you regretted. One Night Stands aren't usually anyone's high points.

There's nothing wrong with having a one night stand if you're safe about it. Perhaps it's just not like him to have sex with random people.

i would disregard the fact that he is a drug addict. drug addicts have other regrets too--- such as one night stands.

And now we know why one night stands are a bad idea.

He's in rehab and you want us to feel sorry for you? How many people do you know that consider one night stands among the things they've done right in their life? Maybe his drug problem was the reason he even hooked up with you and that's why he needs to work through it. #1 FTW

i dont see what the problem is the rehab place probably told him that one night stands are sinful and stuff like that hes brain washed. and #2 i consider them to be high points

Nice try #9, ive had a 4 year gf, a 2 year gf, and currently am in one that will be two years next month. I just dont see how one can have one night stands and not expect regret in some form or another at some point

A one night stand doesn't automatically mean regret. Some people like to have casual sex (with strangers) and that's just their thing.
