Today, I sent my boyfriend of over a year a text message telling him how much I loved him, how perfect he is for me and what I love about him. He sent me back a text saying, "I thought you had class." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I spent two hours perfecting a really romantic text message to my boyfriend for our one year anniversary. I listed all the things I loved about him, and recalled some of our best times together. Two minutes after I sent it, he replied, "Huh?" FML
Today, I received a beautiful, heart-felt text from my boyfriend detailing all the ways he loved me. He probably should have emphasized just how big his heart is though because he sent the text to three other women too. Thank you, group messaging. FML
Today, I sent my boyfriend of three and a half years a text message spilling my heart out, saying I'll love him forever, and how much I appreciate him in my life, that I want to be the mother of his children, etc. His text back to me? "Are you drunk?!?" FML
Today, I wrote my boyfriend a love letter during class and told him to read it when he got home. He texted me later asking me why I gave him my school assignment. I must have handed the love letter in to my teacher. FML
Today, I got an e-mail from a girl, asking if my boyfriend was indeed my boyfriend. I sent back a gushing message about how much I loved him and how well he treated me. She replied "Yeah, I know. He was supposed to be my boyfriend, too." FML
Today, I sent my boyfriend a long and heartfelt message. He responded with "tl; dr". FML
Today, my boyfriend wanted to tell me how much he loves me. He said a lot of wonderful things, such as not being able to live without me and hoping that I would want to live with him and marry him someday. He ended his loving speech with his ex-girlfriend's name instead of mine. FML
Today, after a hard day's work and emotional argument with my best friend, I sent my boyfriend a text telling him how much I loved him and cherished him in the hopes he would cheer me up with a romantic reply. He said "Sorry, I've only got 8 texts left." FML
Today, my boyfriend of three years sent me a text message saying "It's over!" I sent him maybe a thousand texts saying "Why?", "What do you mean?!" After an hour of crying and whatnot, I realized he had driver's education today and that he was saying the class was over. FML
Today, I was spending time with my boyfriend for our one year anniversary. Trying to be romantic, I told him that I loved him and I was so glad I was with him. He responded by giving me a thumbs-up and turning back to the TV. FML

Another text message FML? My goodness. lol. Just get over it. If you didn't tell him in person, then you don't love him enough. Some guys just can't stand that stuff especially if it's over text or instant message,

Two things: 1) You should be ******* paying attention in class, not texting your boyfriend. I don't care how hottt he is. 2) Trying to be romantic over SMS is pitiful. Say it to his face.

I agree with #1: I'm the same way, if u don't say it in person don't bother texting it.

It says Marine, and if she had class, that probably means that she's across the country taking classes where she's stationed. So she probably couldn't tell him in person. Think about things sometimes

this is not an FML at all.

Dude, text messages just do not allow enough characters for that shit. Some things should only be done in person.

i think the op meant her boyfriend thought she was classy

I think he just didn't want her to miss class texting him. Maybe he really is just a good caring boyfriend.

Maybe he thought it was awkward that you said that and didn't know how to respond. Maybe it would be less awkward if you told him in person. I say it's a FYL.

Marines=Most likely across country. classes in the Marine corps get cancelled alllllllll the time. Probably couldn't tell him in person if she wanted to

I think I would have totally responded this way, with the intention of it being coy. Maybe a smiley on the end to drive the point home. Maybe a wink? There's no emoticon for what I'm feeling!

I think by "class" he meant "standards", as in he was being self-depreciating in order to compliment you. Really, a bit of a semantic fail on both your parts, but this is not an FML moment...

get over it. he realizes how lame it is to pronounce your "love" over a text message and would rather take care of that shit in person

If you actually expected him to write a sappy romantic text back: 1.) Guys don't write love letters anymore 2.) If they did it wouldn't be via text 3.) Nobody will ever feel bad for you here or elsewhere for complaining about the heartaches of text messages. They're annoying and only useful in a few situations; and pronouning undying love is not one of them.

#4...I thought he was saying she had class like she was "classy," not literal class...I could be wrong. That's the only way she could think it was a FML. Another note: exactly what #3said.
