Today, I was introduced to my future stepmother, but it turns out that I already know her. Not only are we the same age and went to the same high school, when we were in the same math class together the teacher would often confuse our names because "we could pass as twins". FML

Today, I saw my boyfriend for the first time in a while. When he came over we realized that we had not only gotten the same haircut, but we were also wearing the same sweater. We are a matching old couple at 17. FML

Today, I ran into an old friend from college on the bus to work. Having not seen each other in over 10 years, we spent a good 15 minutes talking about our lives after college. At the end, he asked me what my name was. FML

The truth
Today, I was talking to a guy I met online and have known for four years. I've fallen in love with him twice, one of those times being currently. He was supposed to visit this summer. I got an email from him saying he's really a 17 year-old girl from Chesterfield, MO. FML

yeah my name isn't uncommon, but i've never met someone with the same spelling... which affects people pronouncation >_< also I'm named after a season... just to top it off... hippy parents sigh people need to think more carefully before nameing their children.

#44, the OP is not the same author as post #4, so indeed, it is a different person speaking.

Where is this concentration of Alexs? I hear my name maybe once a month.

I don't understand why your life is ****** - are you only sexually attracted to people with your name or something?

Personally, I think a real FML would be if you and your boyfriend both had the same name. It's not an FML to meet an older person with the same name as you, even if they're the first. I know half my friends who are expecting to name their children after their grandparents or great grand parents. If it was a potentially scarring name, sure, FML, but Somma? No. It's a great name.

I don't see how this is an FML. Cause if your name is Edward Cullen than that's hot. :) Lol, just kidding. Quite a few names given today were used back then.

Concentration of Alex is ridiculous. There are 16 in my year, out of 120 people - at an all boy's school. Then I know a fair few out of school, plus an Alyx, an Alix, a Lexie and two more female Alexs. And my middle name is Alex too...
