Today, I received the newspaper from my hometown. My ex-husband's wedding announcement and picture were on the front page. His new wife has the same first name as me. All my Facebook friends from high school commented on how much weight I've lost and how good I look in my wedding photo. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I attended my 10-year high school reunion. My ex-husband's new wife showed up in the same dress as mine. I guess both the dress and my ex-husband look better on her. FML
Today, my husband who asked for a divorce four days ago announced his engagement on Facebook. His new woman's profile picture is my engagement ring. FML
Today, I married the man of my dreams. While I was being driven to our wedding reception, I checked my Facebook. My husband had just updated his status to "Me and the bitch just got hitched." FML
Today, I was looking at the annoucements in the newspaper and find out that my boyfriend of the past 6 years is supposed to be married in 2 days to what I thought was his ex-girlfriend. FML
Today, while shopping, I bumped into a guy I knew in high school. He went on about he heard I'd got married, looked like I'd had a baby, and that, "she looks just like you!" The kid was my niece, and my husband broke up with me 2 years ago. Thanks for bringing that up. FML
Today, I found out that my husband proposed to his girlfriend, and that her mom had posted it on Facebook. FML
Today, I was meeting my husband's old friends at his 20 year high school reunion. He introduced me as his 'friend from work' to his ex girlfriend. FML
Today, I saw my friend's ex and noticed she had gained a ton of weight since he dated her and had been dating someone else. It reminded me of my friend, so I messaged him and made a joke about her being unrecognizable. He informed me that they started seeing each other again last week. FML
Today, I attended my college roommate's wedding. We were best friends for 4 years, but have only talked occasionally since graduation. I was looking forward to meeting her new husband, having heard so much about him during our conversations. Turns out she forgot to mention he's my ex. FML
Today, my fiancé and I appeared in the paper for obtaining our marriage license. In the same column half way down his parents appeared for filing their marriage dissolution petition. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

why bother saying ouch to such a fake FML to get first? Seriously, this post starts out with them on the "front page of the newspaper" (what wedding photos are on the front page of a newspaper? that doesn't sell newspapers!), and immediately shifts into facebook comments... How do you do a facebook comment on the front page of a newspaper? Anyway, you also deserve it for being fat

Perhaps her friends saw the picture in the paper, then facebooked her to tell her she looked nice? It's not unheard of.

#18, it could be on the front page of a particular section if you live in a small town. and then people posted stuff on her wall on facebook regarding her picture.

So you're telling me that people who haven't cared enough to catch up with her since high school are going to see the picture in the paper then go all the way to her facebook and comment on her wall? And multiple people? That doesn't happen in the real world. What happens is people see picture on facebook, they comment on it. Besides, she says they're "commenting on ______", meaning commenting on the photo, she would have specified if they were writing on her wall.

Mayebe NOT IN YOUR world. Just because you were a high school loser doesnt mean everyone else was.

"Commented on" CAN mean the same as "made a comment about" or "remarked on" "All my Facebook friends from high school MADE A COMMENT ABOUT/REMARKED ON how much weight I've lost and how good I look in my wedding photo. FML" When people write on MY facebook wall, I don't call it such. I call it a comment. Why? I'm more used to myspace and other sites that call these things comments.

I had a hamster once. He died while sleeping. It was a sad experience :(

That does suck. But maybe you should delete sad friends since they clearly don't know you that well.

But if they were friends from high school and they'd all gone seperate ways, it could be years since they had seen each other, and people can change alot in like 5 years. Still sucks though

Did you show them the "before" picture, aka, you right now -- fat, ugly and hopelessly single?

Wow, some friends they are =_= unless they're those friends from hs that you haven't seen since. But still. From facebook? You'd think they'd know what you look like =.= Forget about them, they obviously don't care enough or know enough to be your friends.

I am confused ex's new wife has the same first name as you, so her "new" name would be first name/ex's last name, or your previous married name. Were you married in high school? Didn't you have a different name back then? either this is fake, or YDI for marrying a family member

First name, not last name. Think a little before you post.
