Today, my wife and I decided to try a relationship book. The first activity was to write down some things your partner does that bothers you. I made a very long list, then my wife and I swapped papers. She'd written, "nothing, I love everything about you." She read my list and began tearing up. FML

Today, I went to therapy. Previously, I had been given the task to write a list of things I hate about myself so my doctor could see what we needed to work on. I gave her the list, and she simply said, "Wow, I've never had someone give me such a long list." I had 55 items on the list. FML

Today, after I'd offered to make suggestions to my partner after she finished writing an essay for her college class, and she'd read my suggestions, we argued about every single point I wrote down. Despite telling her she didn't have to take any suggestions we argued for 2 days about it. The professor had the same notes as mine. FML

Today, I was talking with my friend-turned boyfriend and cutely told him that I could no longer remember all the things that he used to do that bothered me. He told me he could remember every one of mine and listed them all off for me. FML

Today, I wrote my boyfriend a love letter during class and told him to read it when he got home. He texted me later asking me why I gave him my school assignment. I must have handed the love letter in to my teacher. FML

Today, my husband and I went to our first counseling sessions, where the main focus was communication. When the therapist called us in together to discuss techniques we could use at home, my husband looked around, rolled his eyes, and responded with, "Uh huh" to every question. FML

Today, depressed about a recent break-up with my long-term boyfriend, I bought a book about moving on after a relationship ends. The cashier placed some standard promotional fliers in my bag during check-out. Once home, I pulled out the fliers. They were for a married couples retreat. FML

Today, my girlfriend found a letter I'd written to myself for moral support while we were broken up, in which I explained why we would never work out. Apparently I made a convincing argument. FML

Today, I found some .pdf files on my wife's computer. They were forms that had been filled out except for the date and the "reason" section. They were divorce papers. When confronted about it she said, "Well, if you piss me off really bad, I want to write down why before I calm down." FML

Don't worry, you did the right thing, and she was obviously lying. You're being honest, she may cry now but she will appreciate your honesty (unless you were unbelievably mean and said horrible things about any aspect of hers)

Dude, that's not your fault. She needed to be honest if she really wants the book the work. Im sure she does love you, but I find it hard to believe that there's not ONE thing about you that gets on her nerves. Don't feel bad!!!

Okay, take it from a married woman that is totally in love with her husband: She was lying her ass off. There's no way in hell that there is NOTHING about you that grates on her nerves once in a while - even if it's the way you ALWAYS fall asleep in the middle of the movies SHE picks to see, or how you cut her off in the middle of a conversation to ramble about some new band you've heard of, or how you complain about XYZ not being done, when you can't even remember to rinse the sink after you shave. The whole idea that SHE came up with this relationship book idea, then didn't follow the instructions sounds like a total baiting tactic to me. I HATE it when women do this manipulative bullshit. It really gives the sane, realistic ones among us a bad name.

Sorry your wife doesn't have any desire to improve your relationship.

poor thing D: I bet she just wanted to make you feel good about yourself and you just right shit down. You realize it was probably in the book to do something 'cute' like that?
