Today, I was walking home with my boyfriend. There's a short cut to my house by jumping a fence but he insisted that we take the long way because, "Girls don't jump fences." To prove him wrong, I jumped the fence. I fell and broke my leg. FML

well, you technically jumped the fence, bravo!

Your boyfriend might've just wanted to spend more time with you by taking the long way! I would've done what he suggested, because it would've been more fun, and you wouldn't have broken your leg haha :P

He was probably just trying to be chivalrous by not making you jump over a fence.

FYL for apparently dating a guy with outdated gender ideas. YDI for failing when you tried to prove him wrong :v

That's all kinds of fail. Sorry you hurt yourself, but don't be so stupid next time!

what he meant to say was "girls don't jump fences without getting hurt".

Looks like your boyfriend was right.

It sucks you broke your leg and it sucks even worse that your boyfriend is an idiot.

"What's the matter, [boyfriend's name]? Never taken a shortcut before?" Your FML plays out in my head like a certain scene from Shaun of the Dead. You may find it hits a little closer to home than it would for most people. If your boyfriend's name is David, it will be slightly scary. Also, surely the "can't jump fences" brigade may be more evenly divided between boys and girls than your boyfriend may think.

Maybe he just wanted to do the gentleman-like thing...
