Today, my boyfriend made me breakfast because I had a cold. Because my nose was so stuffed, I couldn't tell that our milk had gone bad. I had two cups. And now I'm stuck on the toilet. FML

Today, my boyfriend and I were finally able to settle on having a day out together after putting it off for months because of work/other random reasons. This morning I woke up with the worst case of diarrhea I’ve ever had in my life. I won’t be leaving the bathroom anytime soon. FML

Today, I was sitting on the toilet with a really bad and noisy stomach upset. Then I hear a knock on the bathroom door. My boyfriend had decided to make a surprise visit. FML

Today, I was sick and laid up in bed, and my boyfriend decided to bring me some soup. Just as he reached the bed, he tripped over his own feet and spilled the soup all over me. FML

Today, I flushed the toilet while my boyfriend was showering. He responded by throwing a huge fit, saying how if he “gets a cold” from being “forced” to shower in cold water, I’m gonna “have to stay home and take care of him until he’s better.” FML

Today, my boyfriend endearingly told me that he's been taking advantage of my inability to smell due to a head cold, and he's been farting around me whenever he pleases. FML

Today, I had a cold and was vomiting. I sneezed really hard, smacking my nose onto the toilet seat. I woke up a few minutes later with my nose bleeding, painful, and still stuffy. FML

Today, I woke up at my boyfriend's place with grumbling stomach pains. I left him in bed to go have explosive diarreah in the bathroom next to his room. When I was done, I came back to bed and snuggled in next to his sleeping form and he rolled over to whisper, "I heard everthing." FML

Today, after a week of staying in at night and fighting off a persistent cold, I was finally feeling well again, so I decided to go to my boyfriend's work BBQ. I got food poisoning. FML

Today, my boyfriend, who I haven't seen in months because we live in different countries, is coming to stay with me. I've been the picture of health for months, but today I woke up with my period, a terrible cold, and tooth pain from that root canal my dentist told me I didn't need a few years ago. FML

When you're congested you generally can't taste either...

I'm pretty sure if you're stuffed up you REALLY shouldn't even be having dairy in the first place.

All the people saying "but shouldn't you be able to taste it?" you can definitely lose your ability to taste when you have a cold and are stuffed up. Taste is largely impacted by smell. I'm still getting over a brutal cold and I couldn't taste anything for like a week when I first got it. And it doesn't have to be lumpy or anything to be bad either, it could have just been sour. I wonder why OP's boyfriend didn't notice though. And dairy is definitely not a good thing when you're sick anyway, especially if you're really stuffy, it just makes mucus worse.

Few questions to OP, only for my understanding of the incident: 1. What's the linkage between a blocked nose and gap-in-verbal-communication? 2. If you were aware of the spoilt milk, what resisted you to point out that issue by sticky notes? 3. Why your partner couldn't read the expiry date of milk on the package? This question should be asked to him, if not asked. 4. Finally, why did you consume that stuff, if you were aware of that milk packet?
