Today, I logged onto Facebook to see one of my "friends" had used my account to post a coming-out story. It had comments on it such as "I knew it!" "Finally." and "That explains so much." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Denial
Today, I came out of the closet. I came out on Facebook to spare myself awkward conversations and gossip. I wrote a deeply meaningful status about my partner and my pride in who I was. The only responses were, "Lol", "Hacked", and similar remarks. FML
Today, I came home from work and turned on the computer. I logged onto Facebook and saw I had a bunch of notifications. Turns out, everyone on Facebook knew I was single before I did. FML
Today, I logged onto facebook, and saw that one of my friends had just listed herself as in a relationship. I was happy for her, so I clicked the "like" button. Then I went to her page to see who her new boyfriend was. It was my boyfriend. FML
Log out
Today, my friend accidentally left her Facebook logged onto my computer after she left my house. I looked on her Facebook and found a very long message between her and my other friends talking about how much they hate me. FML
Today, I told my friends I had been hiding something that I wanted to come clean on. My one friend responds by saying, "FINALLY you come out of the closet. It's about time." I'm not gay. I was just going to tell them my parents were getting a divorce. FML
Friends?
Today, on Facebook, I realized I had over 500 friends. I told my one friend and she changed her status to, "How can Dan have over 500 Facebook friends? Nobody even likes him." It got 42 likes and twenty comments that basically said, "Agreed." FML
Not a laughing matter
Today, on Facebook, someone wrote a status implying that she was going to kill herself. I called a mutual friend, asking to check up on her. The next status the girl puts up said, "Someone thought I was going to commit suicide! Haha what a loser!" FML
Cringe
Today, I logged onto Facebook to a new notification. I got excited, until I went on to see that it was my mom commenting on my status. She had seen my friends swear in previous comments and decided to make a comment of her own. She told them, "Hey, watch out yr language!" I'm nineteen. FML
Today, I reactivated my Facebook account, having not used it for three months. My "friends" didn't realize this. According to their recent status updates, I'm disgustingly fat, have a hook nose, and I'm secretly hated. FML
Identity politics
Today, I came out as a lesbian to my friends. They were supportive, save for my one friend, who accused me of copying her by also being a lesbian. FML

That's when you put your "friends" numbers on Craigslist under "men seeking men".

Hey, at least your friends are accepting. Now you can REALLY come out.

unless your friend knew your password then some people never learn. never leave your Facebook open
mohamed_H 21
My friends would have written "you all people are ******" or "i eat shit for breakfast" lol :p

It doesn't matter that they're accepting, he's NOT gay!

Either way. Idk who gives their password to anyone it's just dumb
amisenho 11
OP probably didn't give his friend the password. Most likely, OP had Facebook open on the computer or phone and forgot to log out, giving his friend the opportunity to screw around with his account. I've read a few FMLs that began in that fashion.

Is it true?

Actually that's illegal, I was watching Judge Judy and someone ended up paying a hell of a lot more money than it's worth for doing that...
mattjamt 16
Judge Judy is a single person making decisions. It does not mean a real judge/jury would rule that way.
RedPillSucks 33
But she is/was an actual judge and is still required to follow the law in her judicial rulings. It's likely that other judges would have ruled the same way.
mimiminx 23
Yeah because all judges come to the same decisions...
Trippchic 15
Exactly.

dingleberrysteve 6

B1ackthesun 31
#45 No that's the reaction when you have awesome accepting friends.

Time to set the story straight.

I see what you did there.

Dude, time to come out....with a shotgun
onlychildFTW 34
Murders not the answer, because if he went to jail someone will be "coming" somewhere. What he needs to do is have a better password.

I think #5 was just joking...
Riku714 25
Yeah #10. Learn to take a joke.
IllestRated 17
Yeah #10 Gave a sense of humor

hey. well if you ever really want to come out you know they'll understand.
greeneyebeauty9 28
yeah, at least you know they'd accept you for who you are if you were gay.
fucMyLifeSoHard 18
Well... are you gay?
jaredofmo 22
That he isn't ready to be outed?
nickn426 14
That may not be so bad if you're gay. If you're not gay then FYL.
Nilorak 24
You don't say.
jerryj 27
Unfriend this so-called "friend"! That'll teach him/her!
_sempiternus 11
Or, OP can change his password. It's nothing to shun his friend for- it's a facebook status. You delete it and then move on.
SweetasCandy0609 28
#9 I think you are over thinking the fml it was just a prank and OP should just change the password and not leave his Facebook open.
Zebediabolical 45
OP never denied it was true. Just that someone else posted it.

#46, I completelt agree with you saying it's their personal choice. For someone to take that away is cruel. My sister (given up for adoption at birth) was unlucky enough to have a drunk uncle out her to her family. While her parents were accepting, a lot of family members either decided to pretend she really isn't a lesbian, or disown and disrespect her. She still gets asked if she has a boyfriend constantly and is mocked for her sexual preferences.

I think they like you better as gay...
