Today, my boyfriend spent an hour lecturing me on how I need to ask for what I want. So I asked him to delete a crappy picture he'd taken of me the night before. His response: "No, you don't always get what you want." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I asked my boyfriend of several months to post a picture of us. He deleted his Facebook instead. FML
Today, my boyfriend was tidying up around the room. I asked him if he'd like me to help, to which he responded, "No, I don't need any help," then added, "Wish you weren't so lazy." FML
Today, my boyfriend informed me of how I had really hurt his feelings. Apparently, not wanting to be sent a photo of his poop is hurtful. FML
Today, I was talking to my boyfriend about our new year's resolutions. I started telling him that I wanted to lose some weight. He interrupted me, saying, "Yeah yeah, we all know you're fat, whatever." He then went on a 30 minute speech about how he'd really like to take more pictures of his cat in 2011. FML
Today, I sent a scantily clad pic to my boyfriend, to which he responded "Nice, but please clean your room". FML
Today, my fiancé and I had a fight because he wouldn't let me get what I wanted to eat, even though it was my money. He said, "It's way too many calories. I'm supposed to help you lose weight." When I pointed out that I had given up a month ago, he looked at me and said, "Yeah, I can tell." FML
Today, my boyfriend dumped me because I got a haircut without asking for his permission first. FML
Today, I realized just how spoiled and immature my boyfriend is when I asked him several times what he’d like for dinner. Getting no answer, I made steak, potatoes and salad. He then sulked and refused to eat it, since he wanted spaghetti and meatballs instead. FML
Today, my boyfriend used the "this isn't working, we need to talk" line on me. How nice of him to wait this long to do so, just days after we returned from the expensive Caribbean holiday that I paid for. FML
Today, my drunk boyfriend flipped out and told me I was a total control freak, and that he couldn't handle how weird and clingy I am. All I did was ask if his phone was charged. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Say that to him the next time he wants some ass. He sounds like a controlling bastard.

It sounds like a "Shut the **** up" would have been in line somewhere within that hour.

while this is a troll, it's much better than reading "first" all the time.

Seems like he's playing with your mind. If that's the kind of relationship you want then stick with it, but don't complain on FML. If you are complaining then address it head on and deal with the situation.

It sounds like he was trying to get you to understand that you need to assert and stand up for yourself, and you ask him to, of all things, delete a picture... You really couldn't have picked anything more benign. It makes it seem like you didn't understand the purpose of the entire conversation. You shouldn't have to be told that you can ask for what you want.

While an hour might be a bit too much for a simple lecture about being more assertive, he is right that you don't always get what you want. I don't always get what I want when I ask something to my gf, and the other way around. I guess her bf has been keeping his irritation quiet for a long time.
