Today, I spent hours delicately writing out what seemed to be a beautiful poem to my girlfriend. After I sent it to her, I kept eyeing my phone to see her surprised message. No, the only response I got was, "You may want to use a spellcheck." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my boyfriend asked me to write him a poem, as I am an avid writer. Happily, I agreed. After hours of working, I proudly presented it to him. He read it, laughed, and said, "No babe, I meant a real poem." Maybe I should rethink my career choice. FML
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 sent a message on Facebook to a girl I really like. She replied, "..." It took me three hours to realize she'd actually written it. I thought it was just Facebook telling me she was typing. FML
Today, I sent a love letter I'd written meant for my crush to a friend so she could evaluate my prose before I actually sent it to him. For some reason, my emotions got the best of me, and I mistakenly CC'd my mom. She replied with three crying-with-laughter emojis. FML
Today, I decided to write a romantic email to my boyfriend describing how much I love and miss him. An hour later, I got an email back saying, "I think we need to discuss this." It seems I sent it to my teacher by mistake. FML
Today, I texted my girlfriend a long, heartfelt message this morning. Her response? "What do you need? Or is this even really you?" FML
Today, I spent an hour meticulously crafting the perfect text to ask my crush out. Just as I hit send, I realized I'd accidentally sent a screenshot of the conversation to my crush instead. Now they know my level of commitment: zero. FML
Today, I wrote a text to the guy I've had a crush on for two years. I typed "hey" and put my phone down, not ready to send it. A little while later, I heard it buzz. The reply said "Um... what?" Apparently my sister had added "I'm a shitty prostitute" to my text and sent it. FML
Today, I texted my girlfriend a long heartfelt loving message for our 2-year anniversary. Her reply was just "K." FML
Today, I sent my girlfriend a long-overdue message telling her I feel like she doesn't really care about me any more, that it seems like she only ever calls me when she needs money, and that I'm even starting to suspect she may be cheating on me. 14 hours later, she replied: "TL;DR". FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Seriously, you sent a poem with misspellings? That's like an insult. "Here, I wrote you a poem, but I didn't care enough to bother proof-reading."

Thats exactly why he needs to use spellcheck and grammar check.

Grammar Police Warning. Spell Check Losers abound. Beware.

i think it's more of what he misspelled and how he misspelled it, because that may have been the main factor in this

If you're going to craft a "masterpiece," why would you skimp on the little things. It's like Michelangelo drawing the scene on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel using Crayola Crayons.

What's more impressive? The scene on the roof of the Sistine Chapel, or the exact scene on the roof of the Sistine Chapel, but done with Crayola?

Because he wrote a poem, anyone can write a poem.
BeeSkwaird 0
Anyone can write a poem because the OP did? That's an awfully cynical thing to say about him! You just said he's the worst poet alive.
No_Heart 0
No i didn't, i said anyone could write a poem, enless there like illiterate.
MagicMeds 0
Don't bother No_Heart, BeeSkwaird was pretending to be dumb enough to not understand what you meant. It's a pretty common tactic to insult someone around here.

"enless there like illiterate" Oh god the irony!
