Today, my boyfriend broke up with me. I came back home in tears, and eventually told my dad what was wrong. He immediately excused himself to the living room, where I heard him tell my mum, "She's gone all Taylor Swift again." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Today, my boyfriend left me for another girl. My dad's reaction to the news and my tears was to say, "Aww. Gonna write a song about it, Taylor Swift?" FML
Support system
Today, my boyfriend of 6 months broke up with me. I was crying for over an hour in my room. My dad came in and asked what was wrong. Just as I was about to tell him, he stops me and simply says, "Oh, honey. I don't care… Just keep the noise down." Then walks out. FML
Technique
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me. How? He invited my mother to his house for coffee with his parents, and told her. She then had to come home and tell me I’d been dumped. FML
Today, I told my dad that I broke up with my first serious girlfriend. He responded by blaring sad breakup songs as loud as he could throughout the house, just to see me "cry like a bitch". FML
Today, my boyfriend and I broke up after three years. I came home and when my dad asked what was wrong, I told him. His first reaction was, "Well damn it. Who'll go fishing with me now?" FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me. I felt down, so I laid in bed and told my parents I needed some alone time. A couple of minutes later, one of them started blasting "All by Myself" so loud that I felt the floorboards vibrate. FML
Today, I came home crying after my boyfriend dumped me for another girl. My dad told me to come tell him what was wrong. I sat down and let it all out, after which he looked up from his book, into my eyes, and gave me his loving advice: "Just cry about it and move on to another bastard." FML
Today, my boyfriend dumped me. I tried to hide my sadness from my mom. She still noticed, and tried to cheer me up. She took me to a funeral. FML
Today, my ex-boyfriend called my parents to let them know I broke up with him. He was sobbing. FML
Breaking news
Today, I got a phone call from my mother asking me if I was okay. Confused, I asked her what she meant. She then told me that my boyfriend had broken up with me, and she just wanted to make sure I was handling it alright. I had to find out my relationship was over from my mom. FML

What the hell is that supposed to mean?
asianperry 8
Maybe referring to OP always crying about being broken up with? Since that seems to happen to Taylor Swift quite a lot..
mikail_fml 6
Maybe he want to say that she will listen to love music ?!

Taylor has a song about breaking up with her boyfriend called "we are never getting back together'
BlowinChronic 18
A few... Nevermind, all of Taylor Swifts songs have to do with guys she has been with, and half of those are about breakups.
FYLminesGREAT 5
In complete seriousness i would say at least 50% are. A real challenge is to find a modern song not having to do with love, relationships, drugs or sex
jessi_sunshine 26
20 - Wrong. Not every song she has come out with has been written about a guy. Most, yes, but not all. Examples? The Outside, Breathe, Change, Best Day, Mean, Never Grow Up, Ronan, 22, Starlight, and The Lucky One were all songs that were not about guys that she had been with.
Axipiter 24
29 - There are a TON of country songs about drinking, partying, and generally having a good time. Well, MODERN country songs, at least.

'Mean' by Taylor swift is about a breakup... Obviously....
BlowinChronic 18
42- Yep, because anybody that breaks up with her is totally mean, but if she breaks up with someone she writes a song about how happy she is without them...
graffitied_love 20
42- The lyrics to "Mean" does sound as if it refers to a breakup, but according to my Taylor Swift obsessed friend it is about a mean critic. The critic said that she had ruined her entire career in one performance where she had not done her best. The song is about how unfair and mean he was.

Not quite. They may have been old friends who have turned their backs on eachother. It really just depends on how you perceive her song lyrics.

It's not any different than oldies. Pay attention to the lyrics

#1- are you an idiot or
Jaxx66 21
In 1's defence, I have absolutely no idea about what sort of music Taylor Swift does either. So I wouldn't of known right off unless I read the comments. I don't listen to the radio or watch very much television. What I do watch is usually recorded and I skip commercials. So no, it doesn't make him/her an idiot. Not everyone keeps up with that shit. Although, I'll admit; a comment shouldn't normally be made as a first just to ask a question like that. They could of waited to read comments and figure it out from there. Or google.

So my question is how many times have guys broken up with you, for your dad to give you a Taylor swift nickname. Must be a lot.
rachilio 26
42 mean was from when kanye stopped her onstage
betteryouthanmee 3
20- actually, Taylor writes quite a lot of songs that aren't about guys, and even more that aren't about breakups. But my personal favorites are the ones about relationships, because that's what she's good at so why should she stop?
horsestarz 7
125- Mean is actually about a critic. The song about Kanye is called Innocent.
Darian66 5
I agree, songs like Never grow up and Ronan are her best ones

#29, You forgot partying.....

Charmillionaire 13
He might be talking about the complaining aspect of her songs which is, in fact, fairly accurate.
patrickalamo 48
Hell ya write a song and make a million or two
MrSassypants 34
No, but Taylor Swift is. "I read an FML today making fun of me. A girl was crying and the dad said she was acting like me. Well I'll tell her dad that he can't let me down, something something something crown." What? I can't think of actual lyrics.

I can't wait until I can never ever see your comment again after it's buried.
silvercamaro 22
Maybe if you didn't forget an ever....nope still lame.
Eorlas 31
I knew you were trouble when you walked in, so shame on me now!
Mauskau 36
Oh dear. I only know who Taylor swift is from people complaining about how all her songs are about break ups. If this happens to you a lot, I understand, but if it's the first time or the first time in years, then your dad is insensitive. Also, if it only lasted a week it's not worth crying over. If it was a couple of months then it is :p
CallMeMcFeelii 14
Uhm..how do you not know who Taylor Swift is? I'm personally not a fan of her music or even her genre, but I know who she is haha. It just kind of blew my mind when I read that.
soccerguy2 11
I doubt it's the first time in years for op if her dad used the word "again."
saksxalmo 20
#28, not everyone listens to or watches the same things. I still don't know who the Kardashians are, but I've been told they're famous... And I didn't find out who Taylor Swift was until like last year...
SquishFish 15
Me too! From what I've heard of the Kardashians, I'd rather not know the details.....
