Today, I spilled my guts to my girlfriend, saying I'm scared that all I do is upset her. I then had to sit through a speech about how upset she was that I hadn't told her sooner. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Today, I spilled my guts out to my fiancé about some insecurities I've been having. I then turned to look at him through tears at his expressionless face as he texted someone. FML
Empathy bypass
Today, I worked up the courage to confess my bulimia to my girlfriend of three months. It's a touchy subject for me and I ended up in tears. When I was done talking, I looked up to see my girlfriend's disgusted face. She claimed I had a 'vomit fetish', said I was 'half a man' and broke up with me. FML
Honestly?
Today, my friend needed to talk out bad feelings. Then she urged me to open up as well. I hate doing it, but it only seemed fair, so I confessed my deep insecurities. Not only did she agree with everything, but she also helpfully added that I'm boring, have no life, and all my dreams are unattainable. FML
Nervous
Today, I went to see my girlfriend to talk about my anxiety, because it's been a big issue. She broke up with me instead. FML
Bad start
Today, I went to see a therapist for the first time because I've been feeling depressed lately. I opened up and said everything that was on my mind. I really spilled my guts. After a good 30 minutes, her first question was, "Do you always talk this much?" FML
Today, I poured my heart out to my girlfriend with a serenade. After I finished, she told me she'd come over to tell me she'd found someone else and wanted to break up. FML
Put the booze down
Today, I shat myself in front of my girlfriend's family, after drinking too much the previous night and waking up with major stomach problems. FML
Today, my girlfriend gave me a speech on me "not being manly enough". I started crying. FML
Today, I told my girlfriend I wanted to tell her something important. Coincidentally, she did too. She wanted to tell me that she thinks she's actually gay. I wanted to tell her I love her. FML
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me telling me I have problems communicating and that I didn't understand her. When I asked her why she didn't talk to me about this before she said "I didn't want to talk about it." FML

PARADOX.

9- I believe you're looking for the term "Ironic" as I don't see how this is much of a paradox...

At least he isn't in a long term relationship with a hemrrhoid. (FML reference)
ManInTheMachine 20
Insane_Tea: If the FML you're referring to is on the same page, the you don't really need to say "(FML reference)". At least I hope not. Unless people on this site have gotten really dense...

If you don't want to hear her, sew her mouth shut.

32 - if you're on a phone, that FML isn't on the same page. Also, if you're viewing the FMLs from top to bottom (like most people), you would probably read that one AFTER this one (unless you are in the minority and check every few hours like you and I do). So it was a perfectly legitimate thing to say to keep people from going "lol, WTF? *thumb down*"

44- I agree with everything you said except for the part about it not being on the same page. On both my Android phone and my Ipod Touch, the FML is still on the first page.

Yeah I have an iPhone and It's there lol I'm in that minority too ;P

And think about the future, 32. I've seen perfectly good and humorous comments get burried because people started seeing it in the random section, and therefore had no way to connect the FML to the one being refferenced. In fact, for the good of FML, I propose that we all do this.

No thanks, I prefer to write my comments in a land far far away from your proposed (F)MLA format. **** format! If you get it, fab. If not, move on! FMLA citations. Feh. (Any US students with any clue what i'm talking about? You get a treat!)
evilplatypus 39
44 & 64 - I'm muy jealous. I double checked when I typed that and the last FML on my page was the "eating disorder - duh" story. It's just blank below that. Anyone else have trouble loading the whole page? I'm using the iPhone app.

82 "FMLA": We should start citing your brilliant term for the grammar Naziing that goes on here.

Your picture doesn't go with your comment, sweet Jesus I'm disappointed.

Sorry to disappoint, but I don't comment to please you

Are you ******* kidding me?

Well be nicer then. Problem solved.

You're nearly as bad a troll as OP's girlfriend

3 - Wait. Did you even read the FML?
fuzz97 23
TrimKibbles, try actually reading the FML before giving OP advice next time

Ugi 27
Or possibly less.
XxAnnie23xX 15
Guess you should try to do something to make her happy maybe take her on a date or to the movies to show how much you love her, otherwise you might be single. FYL.
Il_Maestro 6
Perhaps you might consider the possibility that OP has been trying to show her how much he cares for her and simply doesn't feel that she expresses as much appreciation as he would like to see.
XxAnnie23xX 15
That could be true, you never know some people's girlfriends/boyfriends always want more.
klutzyduck1 24
Easy solution to feeling like you're not getting what you want/need out of a relationship: communication. The worst thing that's going to happen is someone yells, and really is that so scary? If you can't discuss things like mature adults, maybe that means it's not a great fit. I hate passive aggressive bs, because if he is "spilling his guts" by saying this, he's keeping a lot inside.
laden_swallow09 35
You say "single" as if it's a bad thing…
Tasha321 9
Lol, You must really love her to still be in that relationship... Run!
Inheritance 10
If you lose her you still got Jill!
ChrisTheCalm 9
Who the hell is Jill?..
notyobabymomma 4
Jill is his hand.....
Inheritance 10
Yep that's Jill, but man is she a *****.

Maybe it will strengthen your relationship, she might catch herself when she starts to get upset at you.
evilplatypus 39
Obviously not if her first reaction to his confession was to get upset.
littlesister67 0
Nope, she isn't going to "catch herself". My daughter is the same way. She doesn't think she's doing anything wrong. Her and I have fought a lot about this, until she can admit it's an issue, it's not going to stop.
JennyyMeepMonroe 10
I don't about them but, I totally agree with your welcome #7 (:
Cloudberry 10
At least you guys were able to be honest with each other, many couples wouldn't have the balls and just deal with being unhappy.
alexup24 13
And now you spilled the beans on FML
KMtheDrummer 6
So being in that relationship makes you happy because...?
