Today, it's my fifth wedding anniversary. My wife bailed on the romantic dinner that I arranged in favor of running off with her friends. Their big event: an amateur Fight Club event they'd decided to stage in an abandoned parking lot. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, it's my two year anniversary with my wife. She's celebrating the day with her new boyfriend. FML
Today, it was me and my wife's anniversary. I spent it consoling her as she cried over a man she loved 20 years ago. They never even dated. FML
Today, it's my husband's and my first wedding anniversary. I came home from work hoping for at least a bouquet of flowers, only to find my husband passed out on the couch, with a few beer cans next to him. I guess I missed the party. FML
Today, it was my first anniversary with my husband. Not only were we mad at each other and not speaking the whole day, he doesn't even remember and spent the night out with his friends instead. FML
Today, my wife forgot our anniversary, and since she always makes me suffer when I forget, I made a fancy 4-course meal in our living room, wearing a suit and tie to really rub it in that this time she forgot. Turns out I got the right date, but wrong month. It’s next month, and so… my suffering begins. FML
Today, it's our fifth-year anniversary with my boyfriend. I gave him his gift and walked over to the kitchen to serve him some food I'd made. On my way back to the dining room, I overheard his plans with his friend to ditch me in 10 minutes. FML
Today, my husband told me that for our anniversary he will be watching the UFC fight, because it is, "one of the biggest events ever and he just can't miss it." Apparently, our one-year wedding anniversary is not as important. To add to it, he said we should watch it together. Very romantic. FML
Today, I found out that my husband asked out another woman on a date five days before our 11th anniversary. FML
Today, my boyfriend bailed on our one year anniversary celebration because his ex girlfriend asked him to go to a wedding with her and pose as her fake boyfriend. FML
Today, I went all out for my husband on our anniversary. I planned meals, took him to a stage show, and got him a bottle of cologne he loves. He was moody, distant, and at one point crying. Why? He found out his ex-wife is getting married today and he couldn’t stop thinking about her. FML

Call the cops and get her little fight club broke up. She can spend your anniversary in jail... You are free to go out.

Hey I know I'm most likely going to get downvoted for this, but I have to ask. Why is it when a fml is posted about a guy doing this people say he's a jerk, but when it's a woman everyone says it's cool? It's like when a guy hits a woman is bad, but it's okay for a girl to hit a guy. I never got why most people see things this way. I just want a legitimate answer.

Because, News Flash, the world is not fair. Women have endured thousands of years of discrimination and now when they are getting a little leeway to make compensate for that, you are complaining? And in any case, such positive discrimination is done only in very light issues. Women are still being discriminated against in all the other spheres. So, cut them slack. Also if you read all the comments, they are evenly divided between bashing and favoring the wife, but you are simply focusing on the ones favoring her. Confirmation bias? All this said, all kind of discrimination suck, but hey, the world is not fair.

It's just because of typical sexist stereotypes. Women are seen as the helpless, weak ones so everybody rushes to their defence when something bad happens to them. Men are seen as the strong people who can take care of themselves, and in general aren't allowed to show a whole lot of sensitivity. Ever heard the term "man up"? It's only quite recently that women have actually been supported though, as DarkPrincess said. Before, they were considered second-class to men so nobody batted an eyelash when they were treated badly. Now that we're all equal under the law, everybody's coddling the poor, weak women. Equality? Technically, yes. End of discrimination? Not so much. Stereotypes are going to exist for a looonngg time yet.
