Today, my mom found a new favorite game. I recently broke up with my boyfriend of a year and still have not been able to find a job (months after graduating college). Due to this stress I cry easily, her game? Seeing how many times a day she can make me boo-hoo. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me because she found out I play video games. No, not that I play too many video games or have an addiction to video games. Just that I play them, period. FML
Today, my girlfriend likes playing games on her phone more than she likes me. FML
Today, my mother told me to 'quit having a pity party'. I was just diagnosed with depression. I've lost my boyfriend, my job, my academic standing, and I just got rejected from every graduate school I applied for. And my mother thinks I'm a cry baby. Great. FML
Today, I asked my boyfriend, who loves board games, to give me advice on a board game I'm making. I ended up crying in the fetal position. FML
Today, I discovered that my parents made a game out of my mental illness. Every morning, they have a bet on which one of them can make me cry first. FML
Today, I found myself crying for an hour when my recreated crush on The Sims 3 game rejected my character and ran off with someone else. FML
Today, my mom discovered a new way to get over her breakup: yodelling. FML
Today, after I spent two hours trying to teach my girlfriend to play sudoku, she broke up with me, tearfully claiming that I'd made up a fake, imaginary game to make her feel stupid. FML
Today, my mom told me that I needed to manage my spending better. This is the same woman who will log onto Candy Crush Saga, play a level and not come remotely close to beating it, and then blow $20+ on it to complete it. She got just a tad angry when I pointed out this hypocrisy. FML
Today, my girlfriend destroyed my Xbox, because somewhere in her psycho brain she actually thought it would get me to pay more attention to her, even though I only play 3 hours on a Sunday. Joke's on her, I bought a new one, she’s back on the streets, and I play it a whole lot more now. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

To everyone bitching about how she used the word 'boohoo', that's probably what her mom named the game.

I hope things will get better for you soon. Sounds like a crappy situation to be in if you're at home all day stuck with your psycho mother, and what's probably a depression... Try and get your mind off things, go do stuff with your friends, and most of all: find a job!

JEZUS CHRIST OP!! GROW THE **** UP!! How old are you? 26? 27? A lot of people are searching for a job, but they don't come here to tell that (thank God for that). Feeling sad/ bad these days because you broke up? That's oke, but stop ******* crying about it. If this is a new game for your mom, you have to stop crying. It's weakness. What if you will get a job, and things don't work out? You start crying? Little kids cry, mature people don't. Just grow up. Feeling better?? :)

Um, most college graduates are around 22, moron. And it's pathetic and disgusting that people are telling her to get over it or beat her mom at her own game. A MOTHER should not find it fun or funny to make her own daughter cry. It's cruel. Crying is a NORMAL reaction to stress, anger, sadness, etc. in most people (yes, even "mature" people - which you clearly aren't) and she shouldn't have to just get over it.

agreed, yeah her situation isnt the worst as most people have been through it, but were we upset when it happened to us? I'm assuming we all cried when we got dumped. It's a natural way to handle stress properly and those that do not, well go ahead and hold your feelings to be 'mature' and see where that gets you

@ #44 Yeah right, crying about everything what happpens in your life is a good idea. Well OP, good luck with it. You are going to make it in this world. 1) What is it you don't understand twat, clearly you only have been reading the last part and forgot the rest of it. So read it again slowly and try to understand what I was trying to say. 2) Bad excuse, but I'm not an US citizen and I don't know at what age you leave college. So thats why I asked.

You come to FML because insults make you cry? That's like an alcoholic falling into a vat of beer. I guess after you get your ass reamed out here often enough, your mom's barbs with seem amateurish and silly and will lose their power. The good news is that the lack of boyfriend and job can be fixed pretty soon, but the bad news is your mom's "bitch" gene is dominant so you're probably going to end up just as nasty as her. If your dad's a prick, it is a certainty. Have a nice day watching soap operas about people with jobs getting laid.

Yeah she seems like a whiny bitch. Grow a backbone, stop crying, get a part time job while you're looking for the full time one if it's going that badly. Go out to the bar and get laid. Quit whining. Maybe your mom is playing the game because it's just so damn easy?

That sucks. Some people really shouldn't be parents. And seriously, it doesn't matter how old someone is, when they get stressed, sometimes they're just prone to cry. People just like to make other people feel like a normal reaction is stupid and immature. It's not.

Sounds fair to me! I don't care if you have a PhD I physics... no one is above working at McD's or Walmart to make ends meet.
