Today, I switched from pads to tampons. It took me several botched attempts trying insert one before I succeeded, and now I feel like I've just raped myself. FML
Collection
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 decided to make the switch from pads to tampons. My boyfriend ended up having to show me how to apply them. FML
Today, I was mugged while changing my tampon. The mugger took everything, including the fresh tampon. FML
Today, I put a tampon in. The string broke. I had to go to the hospital to get it out. FML
Corkscrew
Today, I used a menstrual cup for the first time. I couldn't get it out, after what seemed like ages of trying. I had to ask my boyfriend to help me. He'll never look at me the same way again. FML
Ring of fire
Today, I learned the hard way that I'm allergic to a particular brand of tampon. FML
Today, I realized I get more pleasure from a tampon than my boyfriend I have been having sex with for the past six months. FML
Today, I realized my tampon goes deeper than my boyfriend. FML
How? Why?
Today, I was faced with the inevitable horrible circumstances which lead me to put in a tampon on a moving city bus. FML
Today, I woke up in a puddle of blood after 7 hours of sleep. Before going to bed, I had inserted a tampon that should've kept me dry for at least 8 hours. Apparently it doesn't work well if sleepy me forgets to take the top part of the plastic wrapping off. FML
Out of it
Today, I'm sick with a fever, and on my cycle I was too tired and forgot to change my tampon, and ended up putting another one in. I woke up to go to the bathroom and ended up pulling two out. FML

Be thankful it wasn't someone else doing the raping.
HahaHokayThen 10
Rarely anyone gets it on the first try, I used up 6 before I got it. & I still feel like I'm being raped!
alliewillie 22
You must be very young? If you didn't like them then why didnt you just go back to using pads? Problem solved. Not an FML.
jDCrackpot 7
How is it not an FML? From the sounds of things, she's just hurt her ****** with a tampon. If hurting your ****** isn't an FML, I don't know what is.

Sadly my first tampons were cardboard so it was very hard to get it in. Plastic ftw. Oh and I wasted about 20 of the cardboards.

I couldn't use a tampon until I had lost my virginity and a while after that. It was just too painful to use one beforehand. Everyone is different though; just use what you're comfortable with; there is no need to rush.

All this talk about tampons is making me menstruate.

It shouldn't be painful, uncomfortable yeah. But not painful. Must've been putting it in wrong which is normal for first timers.

Mine took two; the first one was painful as hell, and the second one was just uncomfortable to put in.

It hurts like a bitch when you're trying to use them for the first time. If it doesn't stop hurting, it's probably not in far enough. Keep trying! In the long run, it's worth the uncomfortable feeling. Also, use a plastic applicator! Way easier than cardboard.
DustyStorm 16
There's even tiny tampons for tiny twats.... Tampons won't break the hymen in 99.9% of cases especially if you use common sense and take it easy and relax. Shove a super in there at warp speed? Yer gonna do some damage.... (yer is not a typo....it's the new you're...) ;)

^do you wanna try shoving a tampon up your ****** and then telling us How hard it is? Or do you want me to do it for you. Unless youre a dude then you shouldnt be talking cause you dont have experience of anything

It isn't hard to do unless you're mentally challenged. And I'm a girl.

Why do you put "thekid" after every comment your write? You're not even FML famous.
ImInYourFACEbook 8
168- Yeah I hate when people do that! [ImInYourFACEbook] Oh crap! I forgot, I'm not famous either. :/
ShroomsOnAcid 17
168, You're one to talk, with your puny, not even 80 comments against his - over 1000. FML isn't a popularity contest and it isn't Facebook. It shouldn't matter who's "famous" or not, and I think the actual reason for doing that was addressed on another FML. Whatever happened to private messages for private inquiries? Is the idiot parade marching through here tonight or what?
Idonebeenhad 17
^ Not a popularity contest? Oh pleeeeease, I try all the time, so hard, so very hard, it's almost pathetic really. I wish people would like me and add me to their fav lists, but no takers so far. I can't POSSIBLY think why. LOL!

doc bastard is the bomb
freakinglaugher 10
-185 I'd just like to point out that amount of posts does not ensure quality. For example, you can rarely comment but as long as they aren't thumbed down, it doesn't really matter. It just matters if you can make yourself liked. |ArmPit sex| oh and |Bacon| that to.
ShroomsOnAcid 17
205, I mentioned post number as a reference for who's been around longer, and who's made a bigger contribution to the comments. I remember |the kid|'s posts from long before I made an account, but I personally haven't seen 168 post anything of substance. Also, I would have to disagree that all that matters is making yourself well liked and popular. I think what really matters is posting something entertaining, expressing your opinion coherently, and/or participating in interesting discussions. I personally am not here to have my ass kissed, but I do appreciate the support I've gotten. As long as there's even one person out there who's either laughed at or agreed with something I've said, I'm content with that. I don't give a shit about numbers. Lastly, Perdix and DocBastard might be well known, but I doubt either of them sat around dreaming and scheming about it. It's just natural.

epic comment bro.. dunno why anyone would comment negatively lol
ihasbrains 10
Understood where you're coming from, shrooms, but it is definitely pretentious of him to add a signature at the end of each comment. I've always found it annoying as well, especially because his comments don't provoke lol's or anything from me.
freakinglaugher 10
Very sorry if their was a misunderstanding, I do normally post at 1 in the morning. By "being liked" I meant that you aren't some asshole that always just annoys the FML community. Now, that is not directed toward |the kid| but to commenters in general. I agree, though, that you don't have to be Doc or Boners or anything, just make people laugh and contribute,your good in my book. "Thumbs up" to me simply represents you aren't a complete baboon who says something stupid like *lol.. at that point your only contributing to a flame war. The quality thing- if you had 1000 grains of bad rice or 100 of good, which would you take? Oh and hey, this is one of the first threads I'm not making a joke about anything! Congrats on taking my funny virginity. TLDR?
TheNewGuy03 29
Hmm, maybe it's time I set the record straight on a few things, since said records seem to be a little crooked. 1) I'm not on here to be popular. Sure, positive attention is nice, but there are other means to do that, e.g., real life. 2) Most of my comments have received positive responses, thus indicating at least a somewhat positive reception. 3) I simply say what's on my mind at the time. I'm sure at least one of you can relate. 4) I give a negative number of ***** about what you think, but I do consider feedback. I am human, after all. |the kid|
TheNewGuy03 29
Oh, sure, I don't mind! A fine gesture, TheIsland. However, it should be noted that I've been using that signature for most casual correspondence, to include e-mail, for some time now. So, if we ever wind up sending e-mails to each other, and we are the unfortunate victims of government snooping, then the only thing they'd have to say would be, "Holy shit, bros, this guy is sending e-mails to his own alter ego! BANANAS!" In a parallel universe... |the kid|

I don't see why the crap it matters so much, it's a signature. It dosent matter if your 'famous' or not you just like doing it so you do it, stop freaking out over it(: Ex- -Sarah

jDCrackpot 7
Don't worry OP, it's difficult at first. Key is to relax. If it doesn't go in right the first time, chill out and try again later- it'll only hurt a hell of a lot more if you keep trying when you're stressed out about it.
KRS_13 0
The first I tried that my mom was standing over me and it scared the shit out of me :(
thebeautybleeds 17
You know what freaked me out? Girls were telling me stories about hearing other girls scream while putting them in. Obviously if it's true, they were doing it wrong. After awhile you just get used to it, and they go in easy. And 33- that's just creepy. Shoulda told her she was doing more harm then good.

If it hurts so much, why are you using them? Don't they have other things for that?
somewizdom 15
*Downvote Mode on* Stick with the pads until your Wide enough. Problem solved.
hotPinklipstick 24
Most of the time it hurts because you are dry, I recommend putting a little water on your fingers and patting it on your vajajay. I know it sounds weird but will help a lot.
gcohen4 12
Your so right if your stressing out about it it will hurt sooooooo badly

When I first learned aout tampons I was so scared. Then I realized only girls need them

This is one of the reasons I am terrified of using tampons. x__x
ballerinaaub 17
Also using a mirror to know what your doing may help, your probably doing it wrong
girl112891 7
You will get used to it. Unless you're like me. My ****** shrinks to virgin size if I don't have sex for a while. Over a week and my boyfriend has to be as gentle as if it's my first time. Sucks big time! :(
nonamericandolla 6
Ahh! I hate putting in and out tampons! It's so strange!
chili10 18
#60- seeing as how you're a guy I don't expect you to know these things, so I'll give you a break. Contrary to popular belief, they are painless. If discomfort occurs that means it's not in all the way. The idea that they hurt if you're a virgin is completely false, I've been using them for years and you don't even notice they're there. It does take some getting used too, but they are by far more comfortable than wearing a pad.

Exaxtly. You ladies have to be doing something wrong its not supposed to hurt and youre not supposed to even feel it really

Actually, I find that saliva works better. Call me crazy. But I tried to do it with water, and it didn't help as much, and so I used a body fluid.

True. My mom told me that when my great grandmother firs tried, she accidentally put it in her pee hole and she needed to go to the hospital.

#45 yes it is pretty creepy and I tried telling her she was scaring me and she refused to leave.

Started using tampons when I was a virgin for swimming, when I was 13. Obviously if she was so nervous about a tampon she clearly isn't ready to use them.
jessimica642 8
Omg best thing iv seen written on here yet too funny :D
l4d98 2
Maybe she didn't have as much experience as YOU do.... And YOU are the one who is being a bitch, not her. Maybe you should start thinking about what you write/say before you do it so you don't look like a fool...

I've never put a tampon in to myself hence my gender but I can only imagine you're making it much more difficult than it should be.
thatcaligirl 5
well when its your first time it doesnt feel right and you keep thinking you did it wrong... its an over time get used to it type of thing
EvilLilCupcake 10
You try stuffing a tampon up a tight hole that is bleeding plus not being able to see what you are doing -_- the first time is hard on some people. Especially if they are virgins or really young.
Pelreskovich 11
Like I said, I don't know what it's like.. Lol. Umad?
bobchickenfart 5
shoving something up your ****** isn't as easy as you think...
EpicSquishii 21
Hence means "after" or "following." If you really wanted to use that word so badly ypu should have switched the sentence around. What you said roughly translates to "I've never put in a tampon, that's why I'm a boy"
greg84_fml 21
I dunno, I can get things inside me just fine. Practice makes perfect.

It was her first time! She was probably very stressed and nervous. I myself am too scared to try anytime soon.
philipino 24
So there are directions to make it not feel like having a long finger up your ******? Nice to know. . .
SlapOfReality 2
When you wear a tampon, you don't feel it, if you placed it correctly. If it hurts, you did it wrong. I studied those damn pictures when I first used one, no pain because I wasn't nervous.
philipino 24
Yeah maybe OP went 1. . . 2. . . 3! And just shoved it straight up her ******. And then proceeded to rape herself. Bring own the thumbs down!
philipino 24
Ok, you know what? I need not a bunch of people explaining how they put a tightened wad of paper up their ****** without being uncomfortable. So stop it. It's disgusting.
CherryCola46 5
Yes, but It is hard at first. Every girl probably has troubles. I did. Sometimes it works the first time, other times it doesn't. It just depends on how you do it.
