Today, the boy who loved me and left me literally became the poster boy for my college. His picture is on the home page of the college website and on a banner in the cafeteria where I eat every day. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I learned that there's a billboard-sized photo of me and my ex hanging in the airport advertising my college. Travelers from all over the world have now seen me smiling at graduation with the guy who cheated on me after 3 years together. FML
Today, I ran into my ex-girlfriend, the love of my life. Actually I ran into a billboard for her college, where apparently she is the new "poster girl" for their advertising campaign. I have now seen her on 2 billboards, a newspaper ad and a bus. FML
Today, my school's yearbook awarded "Cutest Couple" to my boyfriend and me. We broke up yesterday. FML
Today, I ran into my ex-boyfriend on campus. Upset, I decided to go to McDonald's to eat my painful memories away. While in the drive-thru line, I realized my ex was right in front of me. It looked like I'd followed him all the way from campus. He thinks I'm a stalker now. FML
Today, I ended things with my hometown, on-and-off-again ex-boyfriend. I leave for college soon and felt other things took priority over him (selfish, I know). I met practically every single one of his family members in the street, heard his name being screamed in a department store, and had an overall shitty day. FML
Today, my boyfriend introduced me to his best friend. Who just so happened to be the guy who made my high school years a living hell. FML
Today, looking on the internet, I came across my ex's Facebook page. Most of the posts were about me, and his profile picture was still of me and him. We broke up over a year ago. FML
Today, we had a school reunion. The guy who bullied me throughout my high school career is now rich and married. I'm broke and single, and he specifically came up to me to point it out. FML
Today, riding the bus home from my domestic violence group therapy, I saw a billboard with the face of my ex-boyfriend’s new girlfriend on it. FML
Today, the girl my boyfriend cheated on me with posted pics of them kissing on Facebook, and tagged me in them. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

What a small, strange world.

The more you look at it, the more you'll be desensitized to it. Especially if it's the same exact picture every single time you have to see it. Trust me

I don't get it though if the guy fell in love with her why did he leave her? There has to be more to this story I hope we get a response from OP

Write all over the banners so they have to take them down.

they'd just put up new ones??
AzraelSonOfSatan 7
That is true... Sorry, I didn't think of that factor. They don't do anything like that around where I'm from in Canada.

Meanwhile in Canada. "Oh I see someone drew on this poster of this handsome man. I think he needs glasses to go with that mustache."

Erm; they don't use faces in Canadian advertisements?
TheDrifter 24
They do. We just draw more features on them instead of taking them down.

Yikes, that really sucks, OP. Maybe it's fate and something good is about to happen? :)

This is why I say the world is ******. Good things happen to asshats and bad things.... well, you get the idea

**** that shit. If I was in OP's shoes, I'd take one look at that poster and be like "**** that bitch"! *starts dancing*

I'm not saying it was drugs, but it was drugs.

Throw a piece of food at his poster every day when you finish lunch. Might make you feel a little better? Haha

Just don't look at the banner and spend as little time as possible on the site. Its not an easy fix but its something.

every day, pick out a new flaw. His forehead is too big ot smile is obvoiusly forced or something. Eventually, he will become hideous and youll wonder why you were so facinated to begin with.
