Today, my boyfriend gave me a bucket of Twizzlers for our one year anniversary because "He knew I liked them." He has no idea why I am so upset. FML

Today, my boyfriend brought me home flowers and candy for the first time in our one-year relationship. Thinking he was going to finally propose, I got excited. I asked why he was being so sweet, and he responded with, "I thought you'd take the breakup better this way." FML

Today, it's my 8 year anniversary. My boyfriend's "romantic" gesture for the occasion was to toss a few McDonald's coupons at me and tell me to get whatever I wanted. FML

Today, on the way out to buy groceries, my boyfriend asked if I'd like him to buy some of my favourite flowers. Happy with his rare show of affection, I said yes. When he returned, he gave me a bag of our usual brand of flour and laughed hysterically in my face. FML

Today, I woke up and my husband said he got me a gift for our one year anniversary and that it was on the table. We laid around cuddling and when I finally got up I was expecting to walk out to beautiful bouquet of flowers. I got two packs of cigarettes. FML

Today, my boyfriend gave me a fancy chocolate candy and I got angry at him for forgetting that I'm allergic to chocolate and threw the candy into the garbage disposal. Turns out, he had spent a ton of money getting a chocolatier to put an engagement ring inside the candy that I just destroyed. FML

Today, it was our 12th anniversary. My husband only remembered because family members texted to wish us a happy anniversary. When he went out to the store to get groceries, he didn't even buy me flowers. He's also irritated that I "seem sad or something." FML

Today, my boyfriend bought my favorite doughnuts for our anniversary. After settling down and pouring a glass of wine, I grabbed a doughnut and quickly realized the filling inside wasn't jelly. He thought it would be funny to replace it with toothpaste. FML

Why ARE you upset? He didn't forget. He even remembered an insignificant detail about you. Most people would find that cute.

Why ARE you upset? Sheesh, I think that's sweet of him, if I was a guy I'd do the same. You must not realize how guys' minds work when it comes to gift-giving. You ungrateful snob.

Do people really care that much about DATING anniversary? Marriage anniversaries, yeah, they mean something. But dating anniversaries? Everyone has a different idea of how important they are, anyway, and you can't get angry at him when it's the FIRST one, since it hasn't been established how significant they're supposed to be. Which shouldn't be that much.

Even Wedding anniversaries don't have to be big... My parents always just spent an evening together, reading and talking with wine by the fire. The only ones where gifts were given were the silver and gold ones, where my dad got silver and gold cufflinks, watches, etc. and my mother got jewelry. But you're definitely right, it's a ONE year DATING anniversary. Gifts don't matter anyway, I'd rather a night at home just being with my loved one rather than jewelry. But y'know, if twizzlers were involved, why the **** not take them?

Quite frankly, dear, I still don't know why you're upset, either. He was thoughtful and he got you a gift. You failed to mention, here, what YOU got HIM, and why it was sooo much better than some Twizzlers. If I were you, I'd take the candy and be grateful, but I guess I'm just crazy like that...

Today, at work, I'm supervising one person. Recently there's been tension between her and a couple of other coworkers, one of which was her friend. I spent the day running around and trying to smooth things over, just to find out what started this was her walking in on her former friend talking about her behind her back. FML

Today, my son lost his pet rat, Charlie. Whilst vacuuming under my couch, the vacuum suddenly shut off. Something was stuck in it, so I took it apart. Something was inside, so I leaned in closer to get a better look. Bad news? I need a new vacuum. Good news? I found Charlie. FML

Today, I had to attend a telephone hearing with my landlord, regarding debt and other things. I spent two weeks getting my defence ready. I was prepared and had so much against him. He dropped all complaints but the debt. I had proof it should be reduced or reassessed. He still won and I can’t afford the payments. FML
