Today, I woke up to an email confirming my membership to a dating site. Turns out my mother is as annoyed by my loveless life as I am. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I called my mom to see how she was doing. She quickly hijacked the conversation and said that she's signed me up for a dating site, because she feels bad that I can't find a decent man. I've been dating my boyfriend for seven months, and she's seen me with him multiple times. 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 found my dad on a dating website looking for younger girls. My mother and father are "happily" married, well according to her Facebook profile. FML
Today, a woman turned up uninvited at my house, ready for our first date. After some embarrassed investigating, it turns out my mother signed me up to Tinder and arranged a date, all without telling me, because she refuses to believe I prefer solitude over dating. FML
Today, my mother keeps nagging me to find a wife, settle down, and have kids, even though I have zero interest in any of those things. She refuses to understand that I’m perfectly content being completely on my own. She even signed me up to Tinder without my knowledge. FML
Today, I asked my mom about signing up for an online dating site. She took one look at me and said, "Why get rejected online when you can just go outside for the same?" FML
Today, I had a first date with a guy I met online. And his mom. FML
Today, my mom sent me a picture of a blank piece of paper, saying it was a drawing of all the people who wanted to date me. FML
Today, I overheard my mother Skyping with her new "boyfriend" about the $1,000 she just sent him. She barely knew what internet dating was three weeks ago. FML
Today, I was at dinner with my boyfriend and his family. We were talking about relationships, and I commented on how online dating was the dumbest thing ever. His mom and step-dad went on to tell me how they had met through an online dating service. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

1 in 5 relationships start online these days. Unfortunately, 95% of these "relationships" can legally be called stalkings. Have fun!

Baustigt, I understand what you mean. Now be quiet and get back under my bed. No one gave you permission to come out.

28 - Who said OP didn't want it? I think the real FML here is not the site itself but the pathetic love life.

OP your mom was just trying to help you.

Sooo invasive. That would piss me off. Love life is too personal to get others involved in. Fyl OP

Did she use your credit card or bank card to do it?

Your right doc a lot if relationships do start online that's how I met my girlfriend and we have been together for 5 years now. :)

I met my wife of seven years online. It worked out great for us!

Calyx - My brother met his ex-wife online. My sister met her ex-husband online. I'm sensing a trend here...

5- watch out for the morbidly obese woman with the cart. She's gonna steal you from someone. Then she's gonna stab her husband for trying to grab you.

Then she will hate the girl you bring home.

I hate it when family gets involved in your love life. I feel your pain. my old man once tried hooking me up with a schizo. thanks pops

schizophrenics are just regular people with an illness, and if they take medication they're fine /:
kandi_kid69 15
18- "They're fine" Not really. Even if a person with schizophrenia took medication they can still have symptoms or the medication may not work and that won't help anything. I've known someone with the illness and she still had her symptoms. Anyway, OP, sorry that your mom signed you up to a dating site. Maybe get out and meet new people if you haven't tried that yet. :)

Regular people with an illness that makes them paranoid, irrational and hallucinate.. even on meds. That's how they were with my experience at least. It's very hard to be in a relationship with one.
emba_fml 13
yes, i do. a friend of mine has it, and he's still a great person.

I take offense to this.

52- No one said being Schizophrenic makes them a bad person. They were stating that, medically, it is very, very rare for a person with Schizophrenia to make a recovery. I work as a 504 Coordinator and one of my students is severely Schizophrenic- he's not "fine", but he is a sweet kid.

Your old man would be your boyfriend or husband not your dad.

I know how that is, except that my mom did not sign me up for a dating site, she just introduced me to some girls >.> But the really good news is that she cares about you:) The bad news is that she did not take your self esteem or such into consideration. But grab the chance while you still have it :)

Sex, dinner, and a balloon all in one date? Score!
