Today, my boyfriend and I went to a furniture store. We split up for a bit, and after a while I went to find him. A salesman noticed I seemed to be looking around for him and said, "Oh, your son is upstairs." We're the same age. FML

Today, I went into the store where my boyfriend works. I saw him talking to a customer, his back was facing me, so I went up and smacked his butt. Turns out it wasn't him. FML

Today, a woman came up to me and sheepishly asked if my son is single. He's not my son, he's my boyfriend. FML

Today, I was in IKEA, furniture shopping with my dad. He was looking at one couch that was particularly small. I said "dad that couch is for like a midget." I look over to see a midget looking at me, sitting on the same couch in a different color. He definitely heard me. FML

Today, I went shopping with my two sons and my wife. We got separated after a while, and I spotted my son in the video game section of the store. I snuck up behind him and playfully slapped him on the back of the head. The kid turned around and it wasn't my son. His mom was none to happy. FML

Today, my mum and I were walking down a road where we met an old neighbour who recently got divorced. Her son who we hadn't seen for about 10 years was with her and he looked very handsome. I said, "oh wow ! your son has grown up so much !" The woman replied, "this is my boyfriend." FML

Today, I ran into my boyfriend at the mall, the same boyfriend who'd told me he was going on a family vacation to Mexico. FML

Today, I took my boyfriend to meet my parents over dinner. During the meal, he excused himself to the bathroom, and when he didn't come back after a few minutes, I went to check up on him. I ended up finding him in the living room, pocketing a pack of ambien from my mom's bag. FML

Today, I went to surprise my boyfriend at his job. When I saw he wasn't there, I asked a co-worker, who told me his "sister" came by earlier. He's an only child. FML

Today, I saw my boyfriend for the first time in a while. When he came over we realized that we had not only gotten the same haircut, but we were also wearing the same sweater. We are a matching old couple at 17. FML

Or maybe he was bouncing on the couches like Tom Cruise and that made him seem like a kid.

You should have just played it off OP and been like "Ahh thank you sir that little guy always wonders off, he has a short attention span and gets side tracked easily" and went and got your boyfriend and just left.

#31, because one by one, they fall off and bump their heads. Then, they get concussions and you have to take them to the doctor who prescribes the obvious: No more jumping on the beds. And the co-payments add up and the visits from Child Protective Services get annoying. Sorry to be such a killjoy.

Maybe he saw a younger boy go upstairs, and assumed he was your son, OP? Nevertheless, that does sound quite insulting, although the salesman was just trying to be helpful - assumed, of course, that he wasn't just bizarrely trying to wind you up. Also, if you do look really different in age, the man would be unlikely to guess you were a couple. This sounds really rude but listen me out- my brother is gay, and I have absolutely nothing against homosexuals. But when two guys are out in public, people normally assume that they're friends. If you hugged or something, maybe that's why he thought you were related. It would probably have made more sense if he mistook you for brothers, but I guess that's what makes this an FML. FYL, OP.

Well you should feel good about being mistaken for being young. Most women want to look young forever.

Yes most women want to look young but I bet it doesn't mean they want to look like teenager and plus it gets annoying when your age my age and when other waiters and waitress take your drink or go out of their way to ask if you need any help or anything and plus it also annoying when strangers also at the restaurant report you to their waiter or waitress

Calling you lover, "Daddy" in public can be confusing to others.

It's nothing personal, Op dude. Salespeople actually are under a lotta stress, so they kinda see things in a blur actually. So dont take it to your heart.
