Today, my partner and I were spending quality time with a newly single friend. She quoted some song lyrics, saying "If you want to be happy for the rest of your life, make an ugly woman your wife...". We all laughed, and then my partner said "Boy, you got THAT right." FML

Today, my boyfriend asked me if we were going to become "that stupid couple that sings cheesy songs to each other." I just spent the past 3 months writing the perfect song that I was planning on singing to him tonight. FML

Today, I saw a facebook status that said, 'Wedding today. Ugly people belong together.' I'm getting married today. FML

Today, my wife and I were out with another couple we're friends with. When we went back to their house we looked at old pictures. They showed us a great picture, and I said "It would've been a lot better if that fat chick didn't ruin it in the background." It was the woman from the couple. FML

Today, I went with my beautiful fiancée to tell her grandmother, who's a bit senile, that we got engaged. Her response, "I know he's very nice, but think about the chubby little ugly children he'll give you." This was followed by a recollection of her ex-boyfriends who would've fathered attractive kids.

Today, I was cheering up the girl I've been in love with for years. She was having one of those, "I'm ugly, no one wants to be with me" days. To cheer herself up, she said to me, "If you were a hot guy, you'd date me, right?" FML

Today, at lunch, I was talking to my friends about having a boyfriend. Suddenly, some boy I don't even know said, "Nobody wants to date that ugly bitch." FML

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 wife’s single friend got drunk at my Master’s graduation party and went a long-winded rant about what a good partner I am. I’d be flattered if the fusing of praise of me with single person problems didn’t come off sounding like a jilted lover. We’d only met twice pre-party. FML

Today, I ran into an old high school friend while out with my husband. When she inquired who I was married to, I pointed to my husband, who was looking at shirts. She laughed and said, "No really?", insinuating that I couldn't get anyone that good looking. FML

Today, I met an old friend from high school and his hot girlfriend. I jokingly said she must be blind to go out with him. His response: "Yeah, she is." FML

Lyric fail. It's "If you want to be happy for the rest of your life, never make a pretty woman your wife."

Maybe I'm strange, but I never liked the phrase "partner." If they're lesbians, just say girlfriend.

Haven't heard that song in AGES, but I love it. Thank you OP, for reminding me of a good song.

I created an account just to reply to this FML. My grandfather wrote that song and it makes me really happy to see all these comments. :)

Your grandfather is an amazing man, in that case. :D

Or wife. I just assumed they weren't any form of married because of the wording.

#57 A lot of people who are gender queer use the term "partner" when talking about their, well partner. It has nothing to do with implying the relationship is different. Heterosexuals who may use the term partner are usually elderly southern people who have been with someone for a long time but never married them IME.

I agree that using the term "partner" doesn't necessarily mean that someone is implying that the relationship is different. When I talk about a future spouse (or the hope of having one, haha), I usually refer to that person as my "future partner." I'm female, and that partner will most likely be male... But I like the term, and I don't see anything wrong with using it. It's just a different word to describe the same thing.

Maybe your partner was commenting on the general state of affairs in heterosexual marriages when the female half of the marriage is an attractive young woman, and the male half makes the mistake of assuming that happiness will automatically follow when he marries the young attractive female. Maybe her comment had nothing to do with you or your relationship. Stop acting like such an over-sensitive, heterosexual woman. Man up.

I actually took this to mean she was joking that you're too pretty and you're making her miserable. Still an FYL but either way I think it was a joke...
