Today, I drove three and a half hours to surprise my long distance boyfriend for our anniversary. He was out of town. Where was he? Three and a half hours away trying to surprise me. FML

Today, I drove for three hours to surprise a girl after surgery. My truck broke down outside her place, and it turns out she's over an hour away at her family's place. FML

Today, I drove 3 hours to surprise my girlfriend, who I hadn't seen in 3 weeks. When she opened the door, she gasped, told me to fuck off and slammed the door in my face. FML

Today, I drove my ex-boyfriend home from dropping his car at the garage for new tires. On the way, I drove past my house where my boyfriend was sitting in the driveway ready to surprise me. My boyfriend watched us drive by. FML

Today, I went to the airport to pick up my long-distance boyfriend. Having waited six months for this, I was stoked. After waiting for three hours and sending numerous messages, I was eventually informed I was a week early. FML

Today, I wanted to surprise my long distance girlfriend by flying to her unannounced. When I arrived at her house, her family tells me that she herself boarded an unannounced flight to where I lived hours ago. Surprise. FML

Today, I got a phone call from my boyfriend, who screamed at me for being a f-ing liar and never taking time for him. He'd called my work and knew I wasn't there as I said I'd be. He was right - I was lying. I'd been driving for the past 10 hours to his family's beach house to surprise him. FML

Today, my boyfriend called me as I was getting ready for bed and asked me to pick him up from the bar. Being a loving girlfriend I drive the 45 minutes; when I get there his friend informs me he left about 45 minutes ago. FML

Today, I asked my boyfriend to go to the airport with me, to see me off for my three-month stay abroad. He said no because the two-hour drive is "too boring". FML

That is awesomely sweet. My gf once tried to surprise me by buying me a cold drink and popping out after my 'exam' (my exam is held in summer). It's the first time we had an exam period since going out and little did she know that i was the type that finish exams early and leaves, so she ended up waiting for everyone to come out but I wasn't there. =(

Oh come on, that's not an fml. It sucks right there and then, but afterwards, that's just awesome.

It's not really a FML, I think it is cute but surely some bad timing.

It only means that you both love each other and it is pretty funny, theres no way it can affect your relationship in a bad way.

and this is an FML how? You drove 3.5 hours to see him and he ended up doing the same thing. So what? At least you two love each other enough to make these kind of drives. You should have called ahead and see what his plans were. Yes, you risk blowing the surprise if you make it too obvious what you are planning, but at least you get an idea where he may be so that you don't drive 3.5 hours for nothing.
