Today, the woman I have been seeing said she couldn't see a future with me. This was all because I didn't text her back when I fell asleep after working a double night/morning shift. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, at 1am, the girl of my dreams that I've been trying for over three years to date, finally asked me out via SMS. Too bad I was asleep at the time. She now thinks I've rejected her, and will no longer speak to me. FML
Today, my girlfriend begged me to stay up late and video chat with her because she missed me. Even though I work early mornings, I reluctantly agreed. After waiting up until 2am for her to get online, I gave up. She had fallen asleep. FML
Today, I missed my shift at work. I had asked my girlfriend, who works at the same store, to text me my schedule. She sent me the wrong hours for today. I got suspended, and she broke up with me for being too irresponsible. FML
Today, my girlfriend ended things. We'd had issues because of my communication skills and her confidence, but we were working on it. The last straw? That I couldn't stay with her one night because I suddenly had to go home and take care of my sick mother. She then asked to talk and said I was neglecting her. FML
Today, after seeing a girl for a few weeks on and off I sent her a text to see if she wanted to go out the next saturday. Predictive text changed "go" to "in". So..."Why don't we in out on saturday?" She stopped calling me. FML
Today, after my girlfriend had a nightmare this morning, I stayed home because she has really bad anxiety issues. A couple of hours later, she's pissed because I said I would stay up, but I fell asleep. FML
Today, a girl told me she couldn't text me anymore, because she was too tired and had to sleep. Over the next three hours, she updated her Facebook and Twitter accounts, and made a YouTube video of herself singing. FML
Today, my girlfriend missed our date, so I angrily texted her, telling her if she can't make our dates then we should break up, and generally telling her off. Five minutes later I get a picture of her sleeping in a hospital bed from her mother, saying, "Shut the fuck up, she had appendicitis." FML
Today, I spoke to my girlfriend about how we don't spend enough time talking to each other, but she went on to tell me that we'll talk about it tomorrow because she wanted to sleep. FML
Today, my phone died while I was on the phone with my girlfriend. When I finally got a charger, I saw a text message from her. I'm now single. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Hopefully you don't see a future with her either.

Did you tell her to ensure her psychic bond with the phone was strong after holding it for a while to transfer her energies into it? I too have trouble prognosticating with my phone, which is why I usually use my crystal ball, but if she /really/ tries, she could see all sorts of futures with you. Maybe you should tell her she's not making enough effort and then show her how a real psychic sees a future.

How is it that everyone is throwing the woman under the bus? I'm pretty sure that's not the whole issue, I'm also pretty sure if the brought her story to FML, this dude will be getting a backlash from this very same people

The usual "it's not the girl's fault she must have a reason". When the issue comes from a guy, dump him immediately and don't try to understand. When the issue is the girl "omg don't blame her she must have a reason. We don't know the full story !" Right ? In this case she thinks not replying to a text for a night because you fell asleep is a reason to break up, i don't think we need a backstory to understand she's way to demanding.

Why are you turning this into a gender issue #26? #12 was pointing out that we don't know the whole story and everyone was being quick to make assumptions and say bad things, when they would likely do exactly the same to the op upon hearing the other side of the story. It has nothing to do with the gender of either person.

I'm not "turning it" into something is already is. just pointing out what i see on every relationship fml. And as i pointed out as well, nobody needs a story to know that falling asleep and missing a text is NOT a reason to break up. But that person wasn't "just saying there must be a story" they're clearly saying if we know the full story, it will make OP the bad guy. So yes, the classic, the girl always does bad things because the guy did something bad first. It's always him. I, a female, never had a problem with my boyfriend not answering a text after work, because it seems logic to me that he's probably tired. Even if there is a whole story behind it, if i'm sad or can't sleep or in need of someone to talk. I'm not the center of the universe, i have no reason to get upset because the human being i am dating needs to sleep. Sorry to say a "full story" wouldn't change the fact everyone, including the people you date, have lives and can't answer your texts all the time.

There had to have been more to it than that

After that kind of behavior, you wouldn't want a future with her.

Right now it's an FML but in a little while you'll realize you dodged a bullet and then you'll be pretty happy you didn't waste more time on her.

Good riddance honestly. If she's the type of woman to expect you to work your ass off and not sleep because her texts should be immediately answered. It's a good thing you don't have a future with her.

Be glad you're shit if her. You don't need someone like that in your life.
