Today, after thirteen years of engagement, my fiancé and I split. As is, with the day, we changed our Facebook relationships to make it official. I logged back on tonight to find his mother, the woman I've spent the last year looking after and having a good time, "liking" the break up. FML

Today, I logged on Facebook and saw my friend who'd been engaged, then broke the engagement, then got back together announce their new wedding date: three days before my wedding. She also sent me a message asking if I'd move my date. We've been planning our wedding for two years. She got engaged six months ago. FML

Today, I logged on to Facebook to find that my boyfriend's relationship status had changed to being in a relationship with his ex. I asked him about it, and all he said was, "I guess I forgot to break up with you." FML

Sorry

Today, I woke up without my fiancé in bed next to me, but I assumed he'd gone to work early. I went on Facebook to find that he had posted a break-up post to himself from my account and set my status to single. I then found a note with "Sorry" written on it stuck to the kitchen counter. FML

Facebook official means it's serious

Today, I had the displeasure of watching my boyfriend’s Facebook go from “In a relationship” with me to “Single”, then switched to a big “In a relationship with” the girl he told me was “just a friend” post, after ending our 5-year relationship over text message. FML

Today, after dating my girlfriend for about a month, she changed her Facebook status to taken. When I saw the update, I immediately clicked "Like." Then I looked up and saw I wasn't the person she had put herself in a relationship with. FML

Today, I checked my facebook, and my wife of 5 years was listed as single. I then write on her wall that it is ok to announce to be married. She writes back saying that we have to talk and to come to the kitchen. My wife divorced me over facebook. FML

YDI for waiting so effing long. And YDI for considering "Facebook-official" to be the kind that really matters. But YLIF for her apparently having no gratitude for your looking after her. I can at least dignify that part with an "Ouch!"

You DON'T deserve it. Guys, really, there was a reason they waited so long with an engagement. If they'd gotten married 12 years ago, then they'd most likely STILL be breaking up now...except then they'd have to go through all the divorce papers and all that legal junk.. and she'd get half his stuff, money and all. You don't know their situation. Maybe they were out of work, trying to find enough money to pay for a wedding. Or he was in the military or something. You never know. And the facebook bit... well, yeah, if it says you're in a relationship on there, you're gonna change it to single when that relationship ends. I'm pretty sure that's what he meant.

13 years of engagement? what, did you get engaged at the age of 15 and when you finally realized what it meant, you were feeling too stupid to back down? xD
