Today, I told my boyfriend about how a few years ago I had cancer, and how I underwent radiation therapy. His response? "Did you glow in the dark?" FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I took my friend with me for a radiology scan. While I was getting injections, my friend muttered, "On the bright side, if you die, you'll glow in the dark at the funeral." FML
Today, my boyfriend and I were snuggling on bed watching TV. He gets up at one point and turns the light off, so I asked him why. He replied, "You look better in the dark." FML
Today, at the restaurant I work at, I gave a man back his change and told him to enjoy the sunny day. He replied by dramatically saying that the sun was his mortal enemy. Thinking he was joking, I asked him if he was a vampire. Turns out he has skin cancer. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me that I look better in different kinds of light. I asked him which kind of light I looked best in. His reply? "No light at all." FML
Today, a customer that I've been waiting on for years came into the restaurant after a long absence. I said to him, "Hey man, it looks like you lost a lot of weight! How'd you do it?" He replied, "I got cancer." FML
Today, I told my boyfriend about how I was a test tube baby. He looked at me with confusion before asking, "But if scientists made you, surely you'd be really attractive and talented and stuff?" FML
Today, I reached out to an old friend to ask how his battle with cancer is going. He responded by asking for boob pics. FML
Today, I was turned down from the dream job that I was promised two years ago, once my chemo and radiation therapy was finished. His excuse? He never actually expected me to survive. FML
Today, it's hot and sunny, and a customer asked me how I was, I responded by saying "It's a hot sunny day. Who doesn't love the sun?" He responded by telling me he had just had three melanomas cut out. I guess I did find someone who doesn't like the sun. FML
Today, I'm so pale, my boss asked me whether I light up in the dark. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Well, did you? Just kidding, don't worry, he was probably trying to make light of the situation.

I've heard that joke a million times before. I personally don't think it's offensive, and some people show their sympathy and support by making jokes to cheer you up. Sounds like a nice guy with a good sense of humor, give him a chance

Hot childish of him. Of course you only got the powers of She-Hulk.

That's a legitimate question. =) Well, not really. He was probably just trying to make light of a serious situation. When I told my boyfriend about my battle with breast cancer and the plastic surgery I had done so that I wouldn't feel deformed after the biopsy, he was sympathetic but still managed to make cracks about my real breast versus my breast that's only real on the outside.

Be happy he wasn't a douche and left you and asked an innocent question instead.
