Today, it's my birthday. My boyfriend didn't get me a present. He did, however, get me a card from our cat. He signed it "Have a purrrrfect birthday." Then he left to go to work. I was alone all day long. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, it's the day after my birthday. My boyfriend got me nothing. Nor did he do anything for me for Valentine's Day. Whereas I got him an $85 game for his birthday, planned a surprise visit to his family so he could see them and his pets, and spent all day Valentine's Day making the house spotless, as well as cakes. FML
Today, it's my birthday, and everyone, family and friends, forgot. Except my dog who left me a present on my bed. FML
Today, it's my birthday, I knew I would be on my own, so I brought some pancakes, only to come down and find that not only had my cat eaten them, but also that I’d have to clean his barf up. Happy birthday to me. FML
Today, it's my birthday. The only "happy birthday"s I got were from my mom, her Facebook account, and the Facebook account she made for her cat. FML
Today, it was my birthday. My boyfriend had promised that the day would belong to me. But no, I had to drive 80km forth and back to pick him up from work, then he took pictures with his new camera lens, then he decided what to eat, demanded a massage, and then he just fell asleep. Happy birthday to me. FML
Today, it's my birthday. I lit my birthday candles on the cake I made myself and blew them out alone, while my worthless husband sat on the couch stuffing Doritos in his face. My present? He sprayed Lysol in the bathroom after he took a dump. FML
Today, it was my birthday and everyone in the office chipped in to buy me a card, and nothing but a card. It had a pre-written message on it and a space to write "Love, *insert name*" where everyone signed their names. The "Love" was crossed out and replaced with "From". FML
Today, my boyfriend came to visit me for my birthday. Over dinner he handed me a blank card that had the words "I love you" hastily written on it. When the waiter came to take our order he informed him that we'd be paying separately. Happy Birthday. FML
Today, I celebrated my birthday. By that, I mean I spent most of the day alone in a field, waiting for my boyfriend to have time for me, then we broke up, and I ended up spending the evening crying alone on a beach. FML
Today, my boyfriend gave me a card for my birthday and told me to open it 10 minutes after he'd gone; I waited for 5. In the card was written, "It's not working out, but here's $20." FML

Ohh noo!!! He was going to work making a living and you were left all alone to do nothing? That's too cruel!

...What? At least he remembered. It's not like he can take a day off just because it's your birthday, you know. The fact that you were alone all day was your own fault, get some friends.

you know what? people like you are the reason girls PISS ME OFF. He did care and he showed it by leaving you a card, I'm sure he just thought it would be cute for the "cat" to give it to you... So don't go saying that he didn't give you one cause he did. And hello, welcome to life people have to work. I'm sure you would be alot more upset with him if he didn't have a job.. So instead of being so ungreatful why don't you take a chill pill, relax and learn how to enjoy life. Stop being so hard on you boy because pretty soon it looks like you won't have one. This is not an FML... And don't you have other friends beside your boy? You should have tried to do something with them... seriously, its not his fault.. get over it...

I don't really find this all that offensive. On my birthday I didn't get anything, and my guy didn't feel good so he kept to himself most of the day. But I was still content. Once you get older presents and cards don't matter so much anymore because he probably buys you stuff through-out the year anyway. Gifts on birthdays aren't necessary. If you think about it, it was just a day you were born. But to everyone else it's just another day. Plus, you're just celebrating being one year older which to me is kind of stupid. Why would you celebrate getting older anyway? lol

that's actually kinda sweet that he tried to be inventive like that ( took some thought ) but still sucks that he had to be gone all day.

Hmm, he remembered your birthday, got you a cute and tastefull card, and had to work (wich was out of his control) probably to support you're lazy woman ass. Stop being a whiney, greedy bitch and apreciate what he's doing.

It should have said 'Happy birthday! From the second pussy in the house, to the puurrrrrrfect one' In all seriousness, I don't think you have room to complain. 1. He didn't get you a gift, so it's an FML? Is remembering and a card not enough, that he put thought and effort into? 2. He had to work. And? 3. Be happy that he works all day to please you, and be happy that he's there a lot of the time, he can't be there always. Hope your birthday wasn't too bad, I'm sure you could've found things to do.
