Today, marks the seventh day of having my nose pierced. I'd done everything I was supposed to do, even sleeping with a band-aid over it. This morning, I woke up to my piercing being ripped out by my pillow, and the band-aid nowhere in sight. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, it's the seventh day after my nose job. I was taking something out of a box and pulled too hard. I punched myself in the nose. FML
Today, I had a spur of the moment idea to go have my nose pierced. The piercer made sure to tell me how easily the little stud could get caught or hung up. I spent all day stressing over it only to scratch my nose and rip it out. Now I have a $40 bleeding hole in my nose. FML
Today, I woke up to a weird feeling on my face. Thinking it was a bug, I slapped at it. It was my freshly-inserted nose ring. FML
Today, I was adjusting my nose piercing from the inside. My mother saw and thought I was picking my nose, so she slapped my hand away, tearing my nose ring out in the process. FML
Today, my little sister thought it'd be cool to pierce my nose while I was asleep. FML
Today, while fighting with a girl I hate, my nose piercing got a little loose and I ended up snorting it in. That same girl had to take me to the hospital for surgery. She told everyone afterwards. FML
Today, there was something itching me in my bed, it was the tag to my pillow case. I ripped it off, very hard and slipped and punched myself right in the face. I broke my nose. FML
Today, I got a nipple piercing. My girlfriend thought I was pranking her with a fake piercing, because I wouldn’t be "daft enough" to get a real one, and she yanked it off, or rather through, my nipple. Yes, it cut my poor nip in half, and I now have two nipples where once I had only one. FML
Today, I got a new piercing because I was trying to be spontaneous. Now, I realize its placement is off and I hate it. FML
Today, I spent the first day of my senior year in the ER because my new ear piercing got so infected that the doctors had to cut the earring out. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Your pillow has a vendetta out for you. Sleep with one eye, or nostril, open.

ydi for wearing a chandelier instead of your average nose stud.

Sounds likely that the bandaid got stuck and ripped it out, from reading other comments it's already been said that bandaids are bad for piercings as they stop the healing, they make it too moist and provoke bacteria growth. All piercings should be left to air out and heal like that, cleaned with salt water etc. Also if it can fall out easily then you may have had it pierced with a gun and ended up with a straight earring-type piercing rather than with a needle and a corkscrew stud. Speaking from personal experience, piercers can be persuasive (especially with younger less experienced people) and do not get any with a gun unless it's your earlobe (still not really recommended) as they just don't heal as well. Just if OP decides to get it redone, these are things to consider :) Also nose piercings are actually done for cultural/religious reasons and are rarely discriminated against, plus it's incredibly easy to get a retainer for any piercing wherever it is.

I could say ydi for getting a nose ring but then I would be ripped to miniscule pieces by the FML community so instead... CONGRATS! On lasting seven days! :-D
