Today, my girlfriend had someone else dump me via text message. I knew it wasn't her because for once I wasn't being viciously insulted, and it wasn't written as if an illiterate baboon had taken a shit all over her keypad. I can't even feel happy about being rid of her. FML

Today, my girlfriend who I love very deeply dumped me two times, over the phone. The first time was to dump me. She then called me back a couple hours later explicitly to dump our friendship. I was just friend dumped. FML

I think she means she likes the idea of having a boyfriend like you, but in reality she just doesn't enjoy it.

It's from role models.

Exactly. The line from the movie is "I like the idea of it more than I actually like it." This line is spoken by Augie when asked if he likes Coca-Cola.

She's just not that into you. :( Sorry, dude! You'll find a girl who is interested in you, just keep at it! Don't let this bad experience hinder you.

It means she likes the idea of a sensitive boyfriend. But she doesn't like sharing makeup.

She's just playing hard to get....she wants you to outwardly express your love for her. It's a test and you are failing. A little bit of duct tape and a ride in the trunk your car will surely change her mind! Good luck bro! -Stan

Okay, it means she like having someone who she could call her boyfriend, hold hands, kiss, whatnot, but she wasn't attracted too you.

Today, my girlfriend is mad I won’t indulge her “Sleeping Beauty” fantasy. She doesn’t want me to just kiss her, she wants me to full on fuck her. Call me crazy but I just can’t get it up for a passed out person. Yes it’s consensual, but it just feels uncomfortable. She doesn’t get why I’m not into it. FML

Today, at a supermarket, I ran into a girl I knew in high school. She had two kids with her and they were buying school supplies. My cart was full of beer and snacks. After a chat, she left, not before saying, "I hope things get better for you." I have a job and a girlfriend. FML

Today, after months of trying to get my Pomeranian to lose weight (the vet said she needed to lose 2kg), she was finally getting close to the goal. My cleaner came while I was at work. When I got home, I weighed my dog again, and she had put on 0.5kg, due to the cleaner not following the instructions not to feed her. FML

Today, I seemingly have the perfect life. A clean house, a car, two well behaved kids, and stability in every way. I'm also quite good looking, with a good body and health. It's like out of a sitcom/postcard. The only catch is that my husband has literally zero libido and won't have sex with me. FML

Today, I got a $60 parking ticket for not paying the $2.50 pay-to-park fee. I checked my bank records, which proved that I'd paid the fee, for the correct space too. The problem is the fine is too small to contest in traffic court. FML
