Today, my boyfriend read online that oversleeping has been linked to strokes later in life. He's now taken it upon himself to protect me by making sure that I have as minimal sleep as possible. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my boyfriend informed me I need to stop staying up all night, because it's "really sketchy" and he feels "uncomfortable" not knowing what I'm doing, and why I'm awake. I'm an insomniac, I have been my whole life, and he knows this. FML
Today, my boyfriend had an appointment he had to wait months for, after he finally agreed to try to figure out what's making him so tired all the time. He slept through it. FML
Today, I discovered my boyfriend listens way better in his sleep than he does when he's awake. FML
Today, I realized my boyfriend only asks me to come spend the night when he needs me to wake him up in the morning. FML
Today, I woke up at noon after barely sleeping. I've been diagnosed with sleeping disorders, so this isn't out of the ordinary. The issue is, my boyfriend doesn't think it's a big deal, and is mad at me for wanting to stay in bed after he got up. FML
Today, after not being able to sleep for two hours because my boyfriend wouldn't stop talking, he fell asleep and I was left wide awake. I listened to him snore for another three hours and only got a couple of hours sleep. He's not working today, but I am. FML
Today, and like every day before it, my boyfriend’s snoring is keeping me up all night. FML
Today, I discovered that my boyfriend, who has frequent night terrors, also sleepwalks. And apparently sleep-pisses on the bathroom rug. FML
Today, I was in lying in bed with my boyfriend while he was asleep. He is going to school to be a doctor, and it appears that he says anatomical terms while asleep. My boyfriend can make me feel stupid in his sleep. FML
Today, my boyfriend woke up to me crying. He asked what was wrong, but before I could answer, he'd already rolled over and started snoring louder than ever, making the migraine I was crying about even worse. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Find an article that shows getting woken up by your BF a lot and not getting to sleep in or get much sleep leads to an increase in break ups or hospitalization due to severe foot to groin contact.

And undersleeping causes loss of sex drive. Which condition would he rather deal with?

Under-sleeping causes stress, which causes cancer...

Just wondering, what doesn't cause cancer?

The puppy in your profile pic. I ******* love it, every time I see your comments I just stare at the puppy. He's cute. I can't help it.

i heard this theory in psychology, it's due to the immobility during sleep causing blood pooling. of course, the fact that we turn around and fidget in our sleep helps counterbalance this problem :) p.s don't hate me if iv got anything wrong, i scraped these facts from 5 years ago so they may or may not be wrong

And exactly how old is your boyfriend?

Why should age matter?
OrangeKnife 10
Because, he should know what he read's in the Internet isn't true.

My grandma is old enough to remember the bubonic plague, and even she believes the internet. Age is irrelevant.

It's a sweet gesture but he needs to know that not getting enough sleep brings on a slew of problems itself

Aw, at least it demonstrates how much he cares for you.
