Today, I got flowers sent to my work, I happily opened them in front of my co-workers thinking they were from my crush, I open the card to see "Love you, from mom". My mother thinks my love life is so pathetic, thats she needs to send me flowers to cheer me up. FML

Today, I was in a terrific mood after finding a bouquet of beautiful flowers on my doorstep when I came home. That is, until I recognised the handwriting of my "secret admirer" was the same as my mother's. FML

Today, my Mom came to pay me a short visit at college. She handed me some flowers, which were a Valentine's Day gift, because she "figured I wouldn't be getting any from anyone else this year." FML

Today, I bought some flowers. As I was checking out, the cashier asked, "Aww, these for your mom? How sweet." I responded they were for a girl I liked. She laughed and said, "Sorry…" FML

Today, I got flowers from a secret admirer. Turns out they were from my sister's in-laws who own a flower shop. Apparently, everyone feels bad that I'm single and they are convinced I'm gonna die alone. FML

Today, I received gorgeous orchids from my long distance boyfriend. I was excited about it and told my parents. They still are convinced I have no boyfriend and I mailed the flowers to myself. FML

Today, I received a bunch of flowers from my 'lover'. This would be fine, except that I don't have a lover, and my boyfriend now thinks I'm cheating. FML

Today, I sent a love letter I'd written meant for my crush to a friend so she could evaluate my prose before I actually sent it to him. For some reason, my emotions got the best of me, and I mistakenly CC'd my mom. She replied with three crying-with-laughter emojis. FML

Today, I resorted to buying some expensive flowers and sending them to my boss anonymously with a mysterious love letter, just to get her to lighten the hell up and stop constantly harassing and berating me over every little thing. FML

Today, after spending $120 to have a bouquet of flowers delivered to my mom, she called to complain that I had forgotten about her for Mother's day, but also praise my sister for apparently receiving my flowers I sent at the door and passing them off as hers. FML

Here's a suggestion. Maybe if you learned to look on the bright side of things and be more positive, you'd be getting flowers from a significant other in addition to a lovely gift from your wonderful mom. Positive people attract good things. I know this site is all about the crappy things in life (that are usually funny) but sometimes it's all about perspective. Hope you enjoyed your flowers or maybe gave them to someone who would.

Or maybe because she loves you? FYL for having a loving mother. *sarcasm*

Wow, or maybe your mother loves you and wanted to do something nice for you to encourage you and make you feel good! I seriously hope you aren't as ungrateful as your little FML would suggest. Some people aren't lucky enough to have good parents.

I wish people above the age of 10 would stop using the term 'my crush'

Apparently she's right. Really though, get over yourself. You mom did a nice thing for you because she cares about you and you just want to bitch about it. Take your head out of your ass and open your eyes.

Your mom was just trying to be nice. She probably knew you didn't have a date for Valentine's day and wanted to cheer you up a little. Just get over yourself and appreciate the gesture.
