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

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

Kinda sweet
Today, my boyfriend invited me over, so I went, not thinking anything of it. To my surprise, he broke up with me. I was pretty upset, and as I was leaving his mom handed me a box. When I got home, I opened it. His mom had baked me a break-up cake. FML

Great plan! You can cry all you want and people will think you are admirably mourning the deceased, when you are merely whining about your loss of a hard dick.

an important lesson learned: you may be alone, but at least you're not dead.

Maybe she was trying to get you to imagine it was your boyfriend's funeral. o.o That would cheer me up.

Oh I totally agree, but you know if I didn't correct it, it would have been total troll bait!

Not only am I a troll, but I'm also the interweb game warden. It is illegal to bait trolls, especially when you bait-and-switch. Cease and desist immediately, or face the consequences which will NEVER BE THE SAME!

I doubt she was using a funeral to cheer you up. Perhaps it was something she had to attend, and she invited you so that you wouldn't be alone.

Logical thinking in an FML? Heavens no. It's not nearly as funny.

I agreed with schwancy. plus it does put life into prospective.

I agree with 14. If FML were logical, you would whine to a real person about your problems instead of posting them online.

Marvin_Android is going to have a good time with this one. Life. Don't talk to him about life.

Thank you for warning people. However, I will probably not "have a good time" as you said, as the only times I've ever known were perfectly miserable. OP, if you care to hear what I have to say, which I know no one does, but I'll say it anyway: Sounds macabre and morose. At least your mother was trying to illustrate to you the pointlessness of mourning the demise of a temporary relationship; no matter how short or long your relationships are, you are going to end up as worm food. What better place to illustrate just how brief existence is than a funeral? I'm not bringing anybody down, am I? Life. Don't talk to me about life.
