Today, I signed up for an online dating service, a couple of days after my divorce. I got my first batch of matches, and number one was a smiling picture of the woman who had just divorced my ass after 20+ years together. Her profile shows she has to have been active there for months. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I re-joined a popular on-line dating service. I'd first signed up 3 years ago and was matched with a wonderful woman. After about a year, she broke up with me. I was devastated. After two years of trying to win her back, I'd decided it's best just to move on. Guess who they matched me with? FML
Today, I decided to check out a dating site, when I stumbled across my ex wife's profile. She'd had it for four out of the five years of our marriage. And no, it didn't rate us as a good match. FML
Today, I felt ready to trust men again so I had a little foray into Tinder, just to see what’s out there for a divorcee in her 40s. The very first guy I matched with catfished me with his photo and wanted to buy my dirty undies and socks, in a ziplock bag “to preserve the aroma.” FML
Today, I joined a dating website and spent all day filling out and improving my profile. My first match is a guy who relentlessly tried to date me for all 4 years of high school. Now he just has more reasons to tell me how much we're meant to be. We're a 97% match. FML
Today, I was looking at dating profiles with my single friend, trying to find a guy for her, and we found my husband's profile. FML
Today, I removed all my online dating profiles. Apparently my ex-husband finds stalking me online preferable to spending time with his new girlfriend. FML
Today, an attractive woman was flirting with me from across a coffee shop. When I walked over and introduced myself, she served me with my divorce paperwork. FML
Today, I joined a dating website for the first time in 12 years and spent an hour carefully crafting my profile. Ten minutes after posting, my sibling texted me screenshots. I’d linked my profile to Facebook, where my bio appeared under my real name for half my extended family. Aunt Linda left a heart reaction. FML
Today, I convinced myself I needed to get over my ex-girlfriend. I spent twenty minutes signing up for a new dating site, only to find out, that the only other profile on the site of a person within 200 km, is my ex-girlfriend. FML
Today, I signed up for a dating site and used a photo of my mother and me at a wedding. Everyone stops responding when they find out they're talking to me and not her. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

ahhh what a bitch. I'm sorry, you deserve a better wife. what you do now: make an account under some random name, with a really hot guy as the profile picture. begin to talk to her, get her really interested. meet up with her on a blind date, when she sees you, smile yell, "gotcha, ****!" and move on. :)

lol, you should contact the dating site and tell them they need to fix their matching system, if your #1 match ended up divorcing you. XD

Just goes to show you that you were right to get rid of her. Hope you had a prenup and she didn't get half of your stuff too. Good luck in the game, hope you find an honest lady this time around dude.

#12 From the way OP puts it it would seem she got rid of him. + Without the prenup he would get half of her stuff too. Unless you were after the weird "stereotype" that woman has no assets in marriage, no job, no income, completely nothing, invests nothing and only leeches of her spouse. As for the amount of time her account is active it really it depends when their marriage died. If they were separated before the divorce was finalised (before those 3 months) I don't blame her that much. Still sucks to know that. Anyway, at least he's free now to find someone else.

"a couple days after my divorce", YDI, get over it before dating again. If it wasnt a true dating site but a "dating" site, i can understand.

Well wait a minute... You're supposed to be separated a year before the divorce. Why is it unreasonable that she decided to move on instead of clinging onto you during the separation?

#16 Don't you know women need to wait few years and mourn their broken relationship before they can look at other men and move on so they aren't called a *****? Sarcasm aside, people are way too bitter about their ex partners moving on before them.

I think #14 just hit the nail on the head. It was an escort site, haha.

#14, you're supposed to be seperated before the divorce is finalized. Maybe he's had time to get over it.

It's not like both people start looking as soon as they get out of a divorce. It's likely she's wanted a divorce for a while, regardless of you two being married for 20 years. Just because it was finalized a few days ago does not mean that she's only entitled to start looking as soon when it's completely over. Plus, it's not that hard to find your ex spouse on those sites, because, of course, you've spent so much time together. It's frustrating and can hurt, but it's not at all hard to believe, and there are always other people you can meet. It's really no fault at the website you're using. She's allowed to move on, and so are you.
