Miscellaneous: Today, I was writing a very important email to my college professor....

Today, I was writing a very important email to my college professor. I went upstairs for something and came back down to send it. I later asked him today why he hadn't responded to which he said "I'm flattered...but can't." My roommate had added "love you xxx" at the end of the email. FML

Today, I decided to write a romantic email to my boyfriend describing how much I love and miss him. An hour later, I got an email back saying, "I think we need to discuss this." It seems I sent it to my teacher by mistake. 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 wrote my boyfriend a love letter during class and told him to read it when he got home. He texted me later asking me why I gave him my school assignment. I must have handed the love letter in to my teacher. FML

Today, I got an email from my cute teacher about reminding us to bring stuff for the next lesson. As a joke I clicked on reply and wrote about how I think he is so cute and handsome. Right then and there I clicked to go look at other messages. A little box came up..."MESSAGE SENT". FML

Today, I sent a romantic, flirty text to my boyfriend. A few minutes later, I got a reply from… my mom, saying, “I don’t think this was meant for me, but thanks for making my day awkward.” FML

Today, I received an email from a potential employer with an awesome job opportunity. I was so excited, I immediately went to forward the email to my husband. My email included a lot of "I love you" and "we are going to celebrate tonight ;)". In my excitement, I hit reply instead of forward. FML

Today, I accidentally said, "Bye, love you," to a co-worker as I clocked out. Before I made it home, I had six missed calls and a long text from my co-worker professing her love to me. FML

The ole answer/forward conundrum

By Master's_degree_in_failure - 17/10/2020 22:30

Today, I "answered" an email instead of "forwarding" it. As a result, there is a chance that my Master's thesis supervisor gets a message from me starting by the F-word, and complaining about my bad work and inability to understand a deadline. FML

Today, I emailed my crush an anonymous love letter. It wasn't until twenty minutes later that I realized that the email address I used contained my full name. FML

Haha, I've learned from FML to always double check my emails before I send them

Hahaha. You think that's bad, I know some friends who stuck "because jesus said so" in someone's report when the left their report open on their computer... Buddy never proofread that either.

This isn't true. If you were going to leave and then not check it, why wouldn't you press send before you left? If you don't understand, I will try to explain. I understand you wanting to leave it alone and then check it again...but you DIDN'T check it. You left and then came back to just press send? That doesn't make sense. Why wouldn't you press send before you left if you weren't going to check it, anyway? Sorry, it sounds fake.

ha ha that's great! but dude ydi. always look before you send shit. especially if it's important and going to someone important like a professor. that's going to save you a TON of problems when you get to the real world.

Why didn't you just send it before going upstairs?

I would kill your roommate. This site has taught me to double check e-mails.

This reminds me of when my friend wrote "I love math" for a reading assignment and I added "and men" to the end. The teacher read it to the whole class
