Miscellaneous: Today, I was having coffee with an old friend I hadn't seen since...

Today, I was having coffee with an old friend I hadn't seen since university. I asked about her husband; she replied, "He died" and walked off. I was confused, so I stood up and took off after her. She then reminded me that I was at his funeral, and then slapped me in the face. FML

Today, I was at a party and saw an old friend from college. I went up to her asking how she was and how her family was. She went on to tell me that her husband left her a month ago and started crying. I told her that he was an ass anyway and that she didn't need him. Turns out he died. FML

Today, I was speaking to an old friend and I asked her how her mother was. She replied, "She passed away, you came to her funeral last month." FML

Today, I ran into an old friend. I asked her how she was doing, then asked, "And your mum?" Just as the words escaped my lips, I remembered her mum died a few years ago. Trying to save face, I messed up again and blurted, "She still in the same graveyard?" FML

Today, a girl I've had a huge crush on for a long time told another friend of ours to get a life. I, in my infinite genius responded that her mom needed to get a life. She ran out of the room bawling. I got slapped in the face and informed that her mom had died not long ago. FML

Today, at work, I asked a lady how she was doing. When she replied, I didn't understand her, and instead of asking her what she'd said, I just replied with, "Oh, that's good." What she'd said that I didn't understand was that her husband had just died. FML

Today, I ran into an old friend for whom I used to have feelings. I hadn't seen her in years, so I thought it would be funny if I went up to her and said, "Hey, you look familiar, do I know you?" She thought I had really forgotten her and burst into tears. FML

Today, I ran into an old friend, and she asked me how I was doing. I replied, "Still alive!" like I always do. I forgot both of her parents recently passed away. FML

Today, my (now ex) best friend wore funeral attire to my wedding, and instead of a speech, she gave a eulogy, making it sound like my new husband had brutally murdered me. FML

Today, I ran into an old friend of mine at the store. All was going fine, until she showed me her new fiancé. My now ex-boyfriend. FML

Today, I walked up to my friend and slapped her ass, because that’s what we always do. Turns out, it wasn’t my friend, it was a total stranger. FML

My comment was moderated because I dared to question whether this FML was real or not. To the people who run this site-if you want to keep people here, you might want to be a little more user friendly instead of sending out a warning that if I don't just blindly accept everything on here 100% true that my account is going to be taken away. I'm not a toddler, I'm part of the reason why this site exists. Treat your people with a little more respect, especially when it is their own viewpoints.

I'm sorry but if you were at the funeral and didn't remember, unless you had a major head injury, that's not an old friend and you're a terrible person

So, were you actually at a funeral or was she acting crazy? I don't believe you could be at a funeral without knowing.

Okay... OP, I am going to give you the benefit of the doubt here and assume that when you say you were at the funeral, you didn't mean that you were at the funeral at the time of this conversation, just that you had attended the funeral when your friends husband died however many years ago. She said you were at the funeral as in "you were there at the time". In which case, it's still a bit stupid to have forgotten that he'd died, but it's a teeeeeensy bit more forgiveable than asking "how's your husband?" and forgetting that he was dead while you were AT said persons funeral. This is what I'm assuming. Either way... sorry... YDI.
