Today, my boyfriend came over to celebrate our anniversary. He had a card written in crayon with my name spelled wrong, and a basket I had seen his mother throw in the trash filled with flower petals ripped from my mom's garden. Our anniversary was 3 days ago. FML

It sounds like he did great, your boyfriend is 5 years old, right?

It doesn't say you dated for long, but he sounds like a really crappy guy. On the other hand, crayons are cute, the thought counts, then again, if he fails to spell your name...oh god

What kind of person celebrates a dating anniversary anyway? That is the stupidest thing I have heard in a long time, and I work in the tech support industry if that tells you how much inane drivel I hear on a daily basis. Get a life, you deserve it for A. dating a moron, and B. celebrating nothing.

Most people do. Maybe you've never been in a relationship that lasted long enough to notice, or (judging by the fact that you're in tech support), you've never had a girlfriend in the first place.

Hey, I agree with most of your comments, especially the fact that celebrating dating anniversaries (especially if it's a yearly thing) is completely legit, but lay off the "nerd" stereotype. My husband is a computer genius and works as an IT specialist. Not all computer techs are socially awkward geeks. And some girls, believe it or not, find glasses-wearing geeks adorable. Just because he works in tech support doesn't mean he's incapable of finding a person to date.

I call a fake. 1. because a card with crayon spelled wrong is kinda funny and 2. who rips up flowers in november, and who rips up flowers and throws them into a nasty old basket that their mom threw away... and for that matter, who notices people's mom's throwing away baskets?!

WHO GIVES A ****? relationships are a laugh and a waste of time. Statistically 99% of relationships fail. It's doomed from the start any way you look at it. Move on with your life and do something meaningful, other than worry about petty labels, status symbols and numbers on a calendar.

actually it is. all your relationships end (thus 99%) until you get to the person you stay with forever( 1%), assuming you do stay with that person forever, in which case 99% percent of your relationships still fail, until you re-marry or stay commited to someone for the rest of your life. I wasn't saying 99% of ALL relationships the world over fail, but rather in the course of your life all the relationships you will be in until you get married and stay that way will fail. catch my drift?

That only applies if a person has exactly 100 relationships in their life, (no more, no less.)

I'm not into the anniversary thing either but i think all of you calling her names are beyond dumb the point was regardless of the little effort he put into this HE SPELLS HER NAME WRONG!!!! It wouldn't be an FML if he had in right but sorry chick that sucks the rest of you deserve to have your own for posting the kind of comments you did so FYL!!

For all the people saying he tried, that's bullshit. If you read the FML it states that the guy pretty much mutilated the girl's mom's garden. I don't know how many people garden, but people that do usually put a lot of time and effort into cultivating their plants. And this guy had the nerve to rip up something that doesn't belong to him. Then he essentially tried to pass off the girl's mom's hard work as his own. The crayon card would have been kind of cute if the name was spelled right, but this guy clearly just doesn't care. Personally I'd prefer no gift at all to this kind. I'd rather an anniversary pass with blissful ignorance rather than getting something that's basically a giant reminder that the guy doesn't give a shit.

I think people are missing the point. She didn't care if he did something extravagant, just something to show he thought of her/the day. He clearly forgot. Then made a half-asssed attempt to pretend he didn't. And not all girls expect expensive gifts or dinners. For my last anniversary we rented a movie and ate McDonalds. The point was that we spent time together not doing work or focusing on other things.
