Today, my boyfriend and I were out shopping. As he was trying on shirts, I told him that the particular shirt he was wearing looked ugly. He turned around, sighed, and said "You think? Well, your face is ugly, but you don't see me complaining about it." He was serious. FML

Today, my boyfriend and I were at a restaurant with a few other couples, and my boyfriend started to rant on how "all the hot chicks are dumb." Apparently, I'm either ugly or stupid. FML

Today, my boyfriend compared me to an unattractive actress. When I said it was sort of messed up to say that to me since she's not pretty, he said, "She's not as bad as you." FML

Awful line of inquiry

Today, I was hanging out with my boyfriend. Everything seemed to be going well, when all of a sudden he turned to look at me with a pensive and thoughtful expression. I expected him to say something important, but instead he just said, "I was wondering, how does it feel to be fat?" FML

Today, I was talking to my boyfriend, feeling pretty low. I said something along the lines of, "You like me even when I look like shit." He replied, "Ah, that's just how you naturally look." FML

Today, my boyfriend told me he didn't feel attractive. I tried to cheer him up by telling him that I find him very attractive, and so do my friends. He said that didn't matter, because my friends and I aren't attractive either. FML

Today, after dating for almost five years, my boyfriend stated that I have a "perfect and amazing personality" but that my looks are not what he "envisioned himself spending the rest of his life with." In other words, I'm ugly. FML

Compliments are tricky

Today, I told my boyfriend he's handsome, which I do often. Not everyday, but maybe once or twice a week. He got upset at me. He said it makes him feel uncomfortable. We've been together for 3 years and I still think he's the most handsome man I've ever seen. FML

maybe he took it as you telling him he looked ugly in the shirt and was hurt. still a jerky thing to say though.

Every guy I know would have said something like that, they hate it when someone disses the clothes they like. He obviously liked the shirt, so you should have stayed quiet if you didn't like it. And he probably didn't mean the insult.

Yup, agree 110 %. If he can't take an honest opinion about clothes, and resorts to unnecessary bashing you should dump him.

YDI for two reasons: 1) You insulted him first. 2) You ended it with "He was serious" like 45% of other FMLs -_-

1. It wasn't a PERSONAL remark like his was, nor was it a malicious insult like his was. Critical observation =/= insult. 2. People when making such retorts are usually joking - the fact that he wasn't seems to be pivotal to this fml, and so it was apt that she included it, clichéd or not. Summary - the guy was a complete douche.

So true, Mermaid. The FML cliches are almost as bad as the MLIA cliches. I always wonder how the posters know the other person is serious. Some people just deadpan really well. A more accurate ending would be "I took him seriously."
