Today, I found out that the generous gift from my boyfriend of a new iPhone was only given so he could use the "Find my phone" function to make sure I'm always where I say I am each day. I'm being stalked by my own boyfriend. FML

A way out

Today, I found multiple dating apps in my boyfriend's phone, hidden in a folder with his calculator and calendar. His excuse? He said he was never going to meet up with any of them, he just needed to have a back-up plan. We have been together for five years and live together. FML

He asked you out didn't he? Doesn't matter why. Now you're getting pissy about it? My advice: change your attitude before he realizes what a bi#@h you are and dumps you. If you're still together for many many years, think about how funny this story will be to your kids and grandkids.

Unless you just started dating yesterday, there's a pretty good chance that he actually cares about you ig you've stayed together this long. The fact that some outside influence had a hand in your relationship's conception implies neither that its foundations are less strong or that his feelings are less sincere now; indeed, companions have often been made under circumstances more strange and more mundane. Don't sweat it, this isn't an FML. :)

Maybe it was in a good, "he was nervous and the app gave him confidence" kind've way. As long as he didn't ask it, "which of the 15 ****** I'm sleeping with should i ask out... number 4?" <___< That scenario might not be so ideal

So did the fortune ball app tell him to stay with you?

Today, I found out nobody in my family wants to come to my college graduation. I spent four years and $60,000 to be the first person in my family to go to college, and nobody wants to see me graduate because the four hour ceremony is "too long." FML

Today, I had a look at the pictures my mom took during my birthday a couple of weeks ago. Every single one is of my sister. Her lighting the candles, her watching me open presents, and her eating cake. The only pictures of me are in the background. FML

Today, I went to a garden party my friend had invited me to. I soon discovered they had seriously downplayed the formality of the event, as I noticed trays of fancy hors d'oeuvres and glasses of champagne lined up on the table. I showed up with Kool Aid and Ritz crackers. FML

Today, my mom still spends time with my ex because, as she puts it, we might be divorced now but there’s no reason they can’t still be friends. This is the woman who tricked me into raising another man’s baby for three months before I got suspicious and got a paternity test. Screw you mom. FML
