Today, I was ordering some clothes from Abercrombie online and I went to measure my bust to check what size I am in American. I got my measurement, checked what size it would be and the size of my bust was not even listed on the website. Great. Now even Abercrombie thinks I have small tits. FML

Today, I finally measured myself to find a properly fitted bra. I'm AAA, a size which doesn't technically exist. Goodbye self esteem. FML

Today, I went to Victoria's Secret to get fitted for a new bra since mine weren't fitting properly. To my amazement, I wasn't a 32A, but a 32AA. I might as well have craters on my chest. FML

Today, I know my clothing size and the clothes I buy usually fit me. Except for underwear. How come women’s panties always seem to be at least one size smaller than advertised? FML

Pants!

Today, I bought some cheap panties from a local store. They were great, so I ordered two dozen more, from the store’s website. Turns out the size L from the internet is just about the same as the size S from the local store. They told me that I couldn't expect different colors to be the same size. Go figure. FML

Today, I was at Target trying on swimsuits. I tried on a medium bottom and was so excited because it fit perfectly even though I've gained a few pounds. My self-esteem was at an all-time high until my mom told me I could never fit into a medium. I rechecked the tag. It was an extra large. FML

Today, I went shopping for a new pair of jeans. I was feeling good about the fact that I was going down a waist size until the cashier decided to discuss with me, three co-workers, and the ten other people in line how she didn't even know jeans came in sizes that big. FML

Today, I went to Victoria's Secret to buy a bra. A woman sized me and then gave me a bra to try on in the fitting room. To my pleasure, it seemed to fit well. The woman who had sized me came in to check on me and replied, "Yeah, it happens. Not everyone can be symmetrical." FML

Today, despite having pretty bad social anxiety and clinical depression, and hardly ever leaving the house, I spent an hour and a half at a store figuring out what size pants I am. They just cancelled my order. FML

Today, I was out shopping for bras. While in one store, I couldn't seem to find any in my size. When I asked an employee for help, they took one look at my chest and said, "Maybe you should try our girls' section, we have a lot of training bras." I'm 25. FML

Today, it was my first day at my new job, which requires you to wear a special shirt. Come to find out, they only have medium sized shirts. I'm an XL. They demanded I wear the shirt anyway. FML

At least you'll still fit in their shirts. I have the exact opposite problem

Go to abercrombie kids. A lot of people do that because its cheaper too. You can just order a large or something.

You didn't add 5 inches to your measurement in order to get your proper bust size. So as much as I'd love not to be mean, it was a mistake on your part, and you have measured wrong.

its really all about your proportions. technically i'm not that big compared to other girls, but because of my small waist line, they don't seem as small. at least i don't think they do.... = ) (I'm not bragging i sware. I'm definetely on the smaller side = ) It's really not that bad. Just go with the closest shirt size =)

#114, I've never gotten my clothes tailored, and they fit just as well as I think they do. I never said everything was perfectly skin tight, but then again, I never said it needed to be. A large portion of my clothes are tight, but not all of them. Honestly, it's not that hard to find clothes that fit perfectly, even with a dramatic size difference between waist and chest. Just because it seems like it would be difficult, doesn't mean it actually is. Also, with the tailoring, I said I wouldn't spend $60 on a label. I wouldn't spend more than that to tailor my clothes. If I can't buy it in the right size, where it fits perfectly, I don't buy it. It's as simple as that. Plus, if you really shopped in Hot Topic, you would know that most of their clothes actually cater to a large chest and a small waist. J. C. Penny's and Macy's have such a large selection of clothes, that all it requires to find something is patience.

Ugh. Clothes are such a pain. D; mine either fit right in the chest or the waist, never both. I have pretty average size chest, 34C, but then my waist is several inches smaller. I dunno. I look like I have implants or something. I don't, but people probably think I do. Hey, at least you don't have to deal with people talking directly to your boobs.
