Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Good one
Today, on the way out to buy groceries, my boyfriend asked if I'd like him to buy some of my favourite flowers. Happy with his rare show of affection, I said yes. When he returned, he gave me a bag of our usual brand of flour and laughed hysterically in my face. FML

Today, I caught my boyfriend stealing money from my purse. He tried to turn it on me by claiming I'll owe him for the flowers he'll get me on Valentine's Day, then tried to make me feel guilty by saying the whole thing is for "selfish bitches anyway". FML

Today, I had a fight with my boyfriend over a girl he is close to. He later arrived with flowers for what I thought was an apology. He was actually breaking up with me; the flowers were for her, he just didn't want to leave them in the car. FML

Today, I spent an ungodly amount of money to send my long-distance boyfriend a giant bouquet of roses for Valentine's Day. A few hours after making the non-refundable payment, he let me know we weren't going to work out, and that he was already sleeping with someone else. FML

Suit yourself
Today, I offered my boyfriend medicine which is quite likely to help with his pollen allergy and other health problems, free of charge, and without side effects. I also pointed out an easy fix to keep the pollen out of his apartment. He said, “No thanks” to both, and just kept on complaining. FML

Today, I received a bouquet of flowers from my boyfriend, which is something he's never done before. Unfortunately, this was his way of apologizing for cheating on me. FML

Today, my girlfriend came home with a huge bouquet of roses. They were from an admirer, brainwashing her to think I'm a terrible boyfriend for not buying her flowers like he did. FML

Why on earth would you do that? You can't be that desperate honey, go get yourself a guy who treats you well.

If he is a wise man, he would refuse and then surprise you

I love all of the "leave him" comments on this when the FML only refers to him buying her flowers. For all we know the boyfriend could be doing a lot of others things for OP like changing the oil in her car, backrubs, etc.. Cause it makes no mention of that.. Just that OP wants flowers. There are many little ways to show love rather than that.

Exactly! I never knew that just because you didn't buy your SO flowers, you deserved to be dumped. It's pathetic how materialistic a lot of these people seem....

How desperate are you!

You should buy them yourself and act like someone else sent them. Have a coworker fill out the card. Then dump your jerk of a bf.

Don't be obsessed with the flowers. And no wonder he refuses to do so when you offer to pay him for it, because that's for both of you a very sad thing to do.

I get my girlfriend flowers every pay day :)

Child, grow a backbone. I doubt this is his first blatant disregard of your feelings. Why continue? If you beg someone, and they still don't reciprocate, it's obvious they don't really care.

Maybe he's just not into flowers, or any romantic stuff at all.

And how low is your self esteem?

I'm amazed at all the assumptions...just because he didn't get her flowers doesn't mean he's a horrible boyfriend. It's just like saying that you're a good boyfriend if you give gifts to your SO. I find it kind of pathetic that she was so desperate that she tried bribing. If he wants to do it, let him surprise you with them.
