Today, my girlfriend of 3 years told me that I was part of an experiment for her Sociology doctorate. I also learned that the notebooks she's been writing in for the past three years aren't for her "doctorate in literature" as she had told me, they were notes on my behavior for the past 3 years. FML

Can't be an experiment because if it was, human subjects have to give prior consent. Want to get even, complain to the dean of students that you unwillingly were a human subject for her experiments, feel as though your rights were violated and want to talk to someone at the university about its policies. She'll be F'd.

I'll bet your sexual role-playing was a lot of the queen and the lusty stable-boy scenario. That way, she could call you "Subject" for the sake of the hidden microphones and cameras. Mr. Lyrics, this would be a good time for: "You don't have to call me 'darling,' darling. You never even called me by my name."

When pigs fly? However, if that's the case, take a look at local airports. Swine can now earn Frequent Flyer Miles. (;

...meaning she only dated you as part of an experiment or what? That's the only way I'd see an FML here.

This is definitely a play. Though if it really happened that sucks.

See, the problem is that no reputable university would have accepted a study like this. It goes against practically the entire ethics code for psychological experiments. Without consent, there is no study, no doctorate. Hell, I had to get consent forms ready just to ask people to fill out a 1 page survey. This FML is very suspicious to me. Either she didn't disclosed the study to you, making her 3 years of work moot, OOOOOOOOOR it's fake. Or she is totally insane because nobody would approve a study like this. In any case, don't give consent, and bam, her study is ruined. Hell if you complained to the school you could probably get her thrown out for unethical conduct.

That's just the plot of the movie and play The Shape of Things with Paul Rudd.

Sucks for her--that thesis is NEVER going to get past her university's Ethics department. She's going to have to start all over. Feel better, dude.

very unethical. So college would approve this sort of study. The person being studied must give consent to being studied. You can get back at her Easily
