Today, I spent nearly an hour trying to take a decent photo for my dating site profile. Not 20 minutes after uploading it, I got a message saying "Srsly dude stop trying, u look like Rosie O'Donnell." FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I uploaded my latest picture onto a photography website. It only got one comment, and even that was from someone advising me to never use the same hideous model ever again. It was a self-portrait. FML
Today, I finally exchanged pictures with the woman I've been seeing online for some time now. She replied, saying "Thats not funny. Some people actually look like that." I sent my real picture, and thought I actually looked pretty good in it. FML
Today, I uploaded what I thought were beautiful selfies. One of my "friends" commented, "I've seen what your whole body looks like, so that's why you take only headshots. You're not fooling anybody, fatty." His comment got 18 likes. I took down the photos and spent the rest of my afternoon in tears. FML
Today, I was at the Apple Store taking random pictures of myself. I took one with a really stupid face. This girl passes by and says, "Wow, that's a cool effect! You look just like an alien!" I wasn't using any effects. It was a regular picture. FML
Today, I saw my reflection in the computer screen and I thought I looked quite nice. I tried to take a screenshot. FML
Today, I was browsing the internet and I found a picture of my girlfriend on uglypeople.com. 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
Today, I realized my online dating profile has gotten more views with no picture than it has with my picture. 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, my girlfriend said I looked like ET and made me pose next to a full scale model of him while she took a picture. She's showing her friends the picture and they agree. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Even if you do, so what? He's a jerk, not you.

spending that long to take a picture is crazy. you should have people take pictures of you when you are out having fun. it looks better and less desperate than someone who puts nothing but selfies. especially takes that long to take one good one just be yourself:)

Everyone else has yet to notice OP is a man. Rosie is a fairly manly woman, though, so it isn't that bad for you in that way.

You can tell a lot about someone by their grammar

I don't know, I've known some girls who will take up to that time taking a picture of themselves. Granted 80% of that time is spent gurning as hideously as possible and laughing but still...

#13 is still right, selfies tend to look desperate. It's easy to tell who tries too hard. (Like I have a friend who's really attractive, but in his selfies he ruffles his hair in his face and tries to half smirk and it just looks ridiculous.) Go play billiards with a friend and have them snap a picture during. It's natural and gives the first impression that you like to go have fun.

You guys all have selfies as your pictures though?

Yeah these people don't know what they're talking about lol. Here's the problem, when I'm out having fun with my friends...I never think to take a picture. So when some website needs a picture I go ahead and take a damn selfie.

Just be careful about that on dating sites. Make sure is obvious who you are.
