Today, my boyfriend and I were choosing animals that reminded us of eachother. I said he reminded me of a tiger because he is really muscular. He told me I reminded him of a zebra. When I asked him why, he said it was because of my stretchmarks. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, after feeling a little down about myself and looking for comfort from my boyfriend, he told me that my stretch marks make me look like a tiger. FML
Today, while changing my clothes, my 3 year-old daughter informed me that I looked like a zebra. Noticing my shocked face, she tried comforting me by telling me I was a pretty zebra because I was a purple zebra. She was talking about my stretch marks. FML
Today, my husband called me “my little zebra”. I gave birth a month ago, and I’ve kept a few stretch marks. FML
Today, my boyfriend asked my dad why he gave me the nickname "Bear," which he has called me since I was very little. My dad responded, "Because she has a hairy back." FML
Today, my boyfriend and I were snuggling and telling eachother nice things. The nicest thing he could think of to say to me was "Well, I see you shaved your mustache." FML
Today, as I was walking out of a restaurant with my boyfriend, I saw some guys checking me out. One of them walked up to my boyfriend and said, "Dude, you and your girlfriend have matching moustaches!" FML
Today, I realized I have more in common with a cantaloupe than I do with my boyfriend. FML
Today, I showed my boyfriend the new tattoo of a butterfly that I'd gotten on my lower back. He said, "It looks like it's flying when your rolls jiggle." FML
Today, I asked my boyfriend if he was growing a mustache, as he had whiskers. He looked at me and said "No, but apparently you are." FML
Today, my boyfriend and I were in Victoria's Secret. I saw a picture of a model and said, "I wish I looked like that." He replied with, "Me too." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

#5, stretchmarks don't occur just because she's "let herself go" - don't be so insensitive. girls naturally get curvier (hips, breasts) during puberty and it can take a few years after puberty is done for them to TOTALLY disappear. they don't need to be reddish - often when they're old they're skin-colored and not as easy to detect. don't be such a prick.

I read so many stories like these and I have to wonder maybe the s.o. is just joking around the o.p. has absolutely no sense of humor.

Beat him, dump him... to be honest, don't listen to these people. The fact that your boyfriend can joke about this means he got a sense of humour and loves you over how you look. If you dump this guy you are only going to be left with guys that tells you "you are fat." straight up in your face.

Oh come on, all these people talking like he's the worse person ever, really? He probably said it in jest, damn. They're just stretch marks, hell, he coulda said a blue whale if he wanted to be a total dick. (I'm not saying you're fat, just in general). You could have stretch marks from losing weight just the same so shit, if it were me I'd have said a tiger too, at least that way we'd both be tigers, so let's go home and pretend to make some cubs.

#37 -- yeah we're saying that because it's true -- any guy who makes his girlfriend feel like crap and have low self esteem by purpose is an ass that pretty much should be dumped asap! if I had stretch marks and my guy said that, there's no way in hell he'd ever see me naked again!...how can you ever feel comfortable again? so, solution is you dump him and move on =D
