Today, I sent my boyfriend of three and a half years a text message spilling my heart out, saying I'll love him forever, and how much I appreciate him in my life, that I want to be the mother of his children, etc. His text back to me? "Are you drunk?!?" FML

Today, I was texting my boyfriend about yesterday, where he told me how much he loved me, and he wishes we lived closer. I asked him if he really meant it. Turns out he was drunk, and had no idea what he was talking about. FML

Today, I sent my boyfriend of over a year a text message telling him how much I loved him, how perfect he is for me and what I love about him. He sent me back a text saying, "I thought you had class." FML

Today, my dad texted me, "I love u." I replied, "I love you too dad... are you drunk?" He answers back, "Of course I am..." My dad only tells me he loves me when he's drunk. FML

Today, my boyfriend of three years sent me a text message saying "It's over!". I sent him maybe a thousand texts saying "Why?", "What do you mean?!" After an hour of crying and whatnot, I realized he had driver's education today and that he was saying the class was over. FML

Today, my boyfriend proposed to me. I said yes. This caused him to panic, excuse himself, then take it back via text message a half hour later, claiming he'd been drunk. We live together. When he comes back home, it's going to be very awkward indeed. FML

Today, I received a beautiful, heart-felt text from my boyfriend detailing all the ways he loved me. He probably should have emphasized just how big his heart is though because he sent the text to three other women too. Thank you, group messaging. FML

Love language

Today, I spent two hours perfecting a really romantic text message to my boyfriend for our one year anniversary. I listed all the things I loved about him, and recalled some of our best times together. Two minutes after I sent it, he replied, "Huh?" FML

I think the "mother of your children" part probably prompted his question more than anything else

YDI for writing all that shit in a text. Say it to his face or don't say it at all, you seem like a tool when you send people romatic texts.

Hahaha, that happened to me when I told my girlfriend that I wanted to run away with her. Although, knowing us, it wasn't a stretch that I would be (I think she had been drinking a bit when she replied, lolz).

I tell my boyfriend I love him and I appreciate him over texting... There's nothing wrong with that. I say it in person too- but sometimes sending each other quick little reminders is nice... But, honey... The wanting to have his babies thing is something that probably shouldn't be said. Most guys don't find that romantic like chicks do.

Even if you're horrible at face-to-face conversation, it would have been better to write out an old-fashioned letter or something that actually looks like you put some thought into it. Text messages with that kind of info are pretty much ALWAYS going to either be taken the wrong way or assumed that you were drunk, as your boyfriend and the 100 people who have already commented obviously agree. Tip: you should have told him you WERE drunk. I would rather admit that I was drunk-texting than admit that I really thought that would be the best way to express serious feelings.
