Today, I lent my brand new earrings to one of my friends. Everyone told her that they are pretty, and look really great on her. I've been wearing them for the last 3 weeks, and no one has ever mentioned them. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was excited about showing everyone at work my new piercing. It's in an interesting place in my ear, and it's not that common. Before I had the chance to tell anyone about it, someone asked, "Are you wearing a hearing aid?" FML
Today, at work, a customer told me that my teeth would make a very pretty necklace. FML
Today, I had two different tennis shoes on all day and no one noticed, including myself. When I mentioned it to my family, they told me not to worry about it because no one pays attention me anyway. FML
Today, I bought a used car from a friend of mine. After getting the car home and further inspecting it, I found one of my wife's earrings in the backseat. FML
Today, I sent a picture to my best friend of the shoes I want to wear to prom. She replied, "Wow those are so unique". I guess she forgot that last week she told me she only uses the word unique when she hates something. FML
Today, three people commented on my new haircut. The one I got about two weeks ago. FML
Today, my boyfriend bought me a beautiful pair of very expensive diamond earrings, along with a card that read, "To my beautiful brown eyed Princess." My ears aren't pierced, and my eyes are green. FML
Today, I was on Craigslist looking for a new guitar. I found the diamond earrings and necklace set I gave to my girlfriend last year. She wants 50 bucks for them. FML
Today, I found out that my ex gifted a special handcrafted necklace I made for him to his new girlfriend. She wears it on all her socials. FML
Today, I bought a new shirt I thought looked cool. At work, three people complimented me, then each one added a variation of, “My dad has the same one!” By lunch, my confidence had left the building entirely. A coworker even asked if I’d gotten it from the “retro section.” FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I say I want a cat, suddenly my sister wants one and everyone is all over her new cat obsession. I say I like this poem and suddenly it's on her myspace and everyone leaves comments saying where did she find it and what good taste she has. I let her borrow my favorite dress and she uses it in a damn myspace photo and she has twelve picture comments saying how gorgeous she looks in that dress. FML.

It could actually be just the differences between you two? Maybe she has shorter hair? Or is more social? Maybe she gives out more complements and draws more attention to herself then you do? You can't always have others make the first move. You have to be willing to receive, and someone DID in fact notice them and mention them, since your best friend is now wearing them.

I am amazed at how people try to make their stories more interesting by adding more descriptive words. Yet some are completely contradictory... You can't have 'brand new' earrings if you've been wearing them for 3 weeks. Learn to proofread before you post things on the internet. Such flaws in writing make you look like you have no grasp on the concept of "new". Which makes us question your intellectual capacity. Which, in turn, makes people laugh at your stupidity. Sorry for being rude but I'm just trying to help you for next time

Perhaps people compliment her because in her case it's out of the norm. If you're a "fashionista" and she isn't, maybe the compliments are a way for others to encourage her to do more for herself. Or maybe they just look better on her. Give them to her and get another pair that looks good on you. Anyway, this isn't an FML. This is whining.
