Today, I was feeling terrible and posted on Facebook about how I was stressed out and feeling really lonely. My sister replied saying "#fatfuckproblems". 13 people liked it and some so-called friends posted stuff like "rekt" and "SLAYED, bitch!", all in less than a minute. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, a guy who I hate commented on my Facebook profile picture that I "look like I've fallen off the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down." Sixty people liked this, including my boyfriend and my best friend. FML
Today, I was together with a few of my friends when I got up the courage to confess I have an eating disorder. One of my friends then said "... but you're not skinny." FML
Today, I was insulted and harassed by my sister and her boyfriend, all because I proposed yesterday. They were angry I might get married before they did. They have known each other since primary school; I met my fiancée earlier this year. FML
Today, I got in a huge fight with my mom, so I went to my room and locked myself in there and played loud music so I didn't have to hear her. She then started yelling at me on Facebook, so I logged out of Facebook. She then started yelling at me on Yahoo. Damn technology. FML
Today, I realized the sweet, sensitive girl I was talking to on a dating site was actually my brother trolling me for fun. FML
Today, my life became a lot more depressing. A while ago, some friends and I founded a "Forever Alone" club, because all of us were single at that time. I'm now the only member left. FML
Today, someone gave me a note to pass along to a girl in class. The note had the girl's name surrounded by hearts. When I gave it to her, she assumed it was a love note from me, and said, "Not in a million years, fat ass!" before I could say it was from someone else. FML
Today, my family went on vacation. I had to stay home to take care of everyone's animals. I called my mom, who said she was too busy to talk to me. When my sister asked her who was on the phone, she replied, "The dog sitter." FML
Today, a colleague found out that I struggled with anorexia when young. After ranting about how it's a silly 'Women's disease', he renamed me 'Miss Piggy' and made oinking noises every time I ate something. FML
Today, I got on the bus to go to work. I managed to get a seat, but an old lady who looked tired had to stand. I offered her my seat, but she glared at me, frowned and said, "Go fuck yourself." Everyone laughed as I sat there in dismay. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Wow, I'm sorry. It amazes me how cruel some people can be. I hope you find someone you can talk to, OP. Hang in there.

That was extremely rude, especially from someone like your sister who is supposed to help you when you're feeling down

YDI Why do people feel the need to post every single thing they feel, see or do on the Internet? What's the attraction about displaying every single part of your life on social media so friends and family can pick apart your post and make you feel like shit if that is their aim. Life has enough challenges of their own without social media junkies adding fuel to their own fire and then crying about friends or family not being supportive on social media. Keep some things private. The whole world does not need to know every time you breathe, eat, etc. Call a friend, take yourself out for the day, do something for you, rather then desperately seeking for social media to prop you up and make you feel better. You are worth so much more then what face book can offer. Where's the mystery?

Sounds like it might be time to lose some weight

Shouldn't have been fishing for attention then. If you're truly lonely call a friend.

That's what happens when you post your feelings on the internet.

You call it mean, I call it good friends. Most good friends give you a hard time. If they aren't good friends, then ydi for adding them on Facebook in the first place. Do something about the loneliness, posting it on Facebook for attention doesn't fix anything.

FML, OP, but whenever you post stuff like that on Facebook or anywhere, from another person's point of view, looks like you're just trying to get attention. That might be why people will treat it like a joke. You should probably talk to your family if you're feeling sad.

Your friends probably just considered it a jk. I doubt they expected you to take it seriously. Also if you really feel that way, posting it on Facebook is the worst thing you could do. Talk to someone your close with instead.

well, you can either unfriend/block everyone involved in this because they are not really your friends or create another profile/group/restrict policy so you can be yourself without worrying about them. you don't have to be always happy.. just don't show it to mean people

Okay, all of those comments are clearly jokes that you took wrong, given your emotional state that is understandable but all the same posting things on the Internet is always a bad idea when it's personal, it doesn't do you any good getting worthless sympathy from people who just way to make them selves feel good by saying something nice. Instead actually Talk to a friend one on one
