Today, my boyfriend of two years said he would finally take me somewhere romantic. I spent my day at a Star Wars convention. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I invited my boyfriend to come to an event to meet some of my friends for the first time. I had been raving about him for weeks, and everyone was curious to meet this "amazing guy" I'd been dating. He showed up in a Darth Vader costume because he thought it would be funny to embarrass me. FML
Today, my boyfriend took me to dinner. There was a beautifully decorated table with rose petals and a huge bouquet and he told me he had ordered all this for me. I'd never felt so special. That is, until I had to get up for the couple whose table it actually was. FML
Today, my boyfriend took me on a surprise date, destination unknown. I dressed up, he had a tux on. We went to McDonalds. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me he was going to take me out somewhere special, so I called in sick for work. Turns out he had made reservations for the restaurant I worked at. FML
Today, my boyfriend thought it'd be romantic to take me to a strip club for our 1-year anniversary. FML
Today, I was spending time with my boyfriend for our one year anniversary. Trying to be romantic, I told him that I loved him and I was so glad I was with him. He responded by giving me a thumbs-up and turning back to the TV. FML
Today, my boyfriend took me on a surprise date to an expensive restaurant. After the meal, he got down on his knee and proposed. We've only been dating for two weeks, so I said no. He just silently kept staring me in the eyes, no matter what I said or did. I ended up having to walk home. FML
Today, I sat through 9 gruelling hours of Star Wars with my boyfriend. I hate those movies with a passion and frankly would rather get a pap smear from Wolverine than watch them. Afterwards, he dumped me for yawning, saying that I didn’t take a “serious” interest in his favorite things. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I binged Star Wars. Now he keeps talking about how the Empire is superior to the Republic, digging up Reddit threads / YouTube videos / expressing his own political ideas to convince me of this. I just wanted to watch the movies. FML
Today, my boyfriend proposed to me at dinner, which would’ve been nice if we hadn’t been dating for only two months, and dinner was at Subway. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

star wars isn't THAT bad... a convention, on the other hand, might be. i sense deactivation in the near future anyway :) yay!

I don't think it's the fact that she thinks a Star Wars convention is bad (though I'm assuming she does), but that her boyfriend promised to take her somewhere romantic. Something a Star Wars convention definitely isn't. Especially if Star Wars is something he enjoys, but not her. That wouldn't be a romantic trip, that'd be a day out for him, that he's tricked her into coming to.

YDI if you stayed with him for two years even though he never took you anywhere romantic. if he doesn't take you somewhere romantic in all that time, you should have left him.

you deserved it for staying with someone for two years who has never taken you anywhere romantic

Never seen a single Star Wars movie. Never met anyone who HASN'T seen all of them. And I know a lot of popular people. God, I hate those things. Why can't these Star Wars freaks keep like a private shrine in their closet? Do they really have to hog up a convention center for a week?

I can imagine that week being donated for a Red Cross convention, where all proceeds would go to those in need. Reality: A bunch of nerds together for a week, letting their lives waste away on a plotline that will never come true. Lastly, it is good to enjoy a movie like that, but DONT GET SO FREAKING OBSESSED. Thank you for your time.

At first I agreed with you, then I realized it was Star WARS not Star Trek. How do you honestly not know of the legendaryness that in the Star Wars saga?

It's not the fact that he likes Star Wars! She probably knows that. It's the fact that he promised to take her to somewhere romantic, and they went to a sci-fi convention. Am gonnana have to put this on every comment? I've got all night and sod all else to do.

That is true, but after two years you would think she would know his definition of "romantic".

So? I think that's awesome. He can be Luke and you can be Leia, except there's no brother-sister incest. That's awesome for both of you!
bluefire8q3 0
you mean he can be Han Solo and she can be Leia?
saranottelling 7
Ew, I've never been a fan of Han Solo. I don't know why, when I see him I just think, "Why the hell is Indiana Jones in a Star Wars movie?"

OMG. That is awesome. BOOO to you. Star Wars is love

It was probably awesome!!!1!1! (1s added to emphasize the awesomeness), but definitely not Romantic. FYL to some degree, for the disappointment.
