Today, the three-year-old I was babysitting asked me where my boyfriend was. I told her he was at his house. I'm twenty and single. I lied to a three year old to make myself look less pathetic. FML

Today, the 8 year old that I babysit every week told me that it was sad that I didn't have a boyfriend while he has a girlfriend. I got burned by a 3rd grader. FML

Today, I was babysitting a five year-old boy. Somehow the topic of relationships came up, and he asked me if I had a boyfriend. When I told him that I was single, he got all excited and asked if he could be my boyfriend. It would have been cute… except he was the first guy to ever ask me out. I'm 18. FML

Today, while babysitting, the little boy explained to me why I was single, reasons such as 'unattractive' and 'not the girlfriend type'. I cried. FML

Today, I'm 19 years old and, having never been on a date, I agreed to let my friend set me up. He was adorable, young, with blond hair and blue eyes...and 4 years old. My friend tricked me into babysitting. FML

Today, my girlfriend's mother invited me to her 18th birthday. She lied about her age. I have been screwing a minor for 2 years. FML

Today, I was babysitting a three-year-old. She asked me what was wrong with my belly. I had to explain to her that I'm just fat. Twice. FML

Today, I was babysitting a boy who was 11 years old. He told me that he loved me and wanted to be my boyfriend. I told him that I think he is a really great kid but I'm 17 so it would never work out. He said okay. When his parents came home he told them that I hit him and started crying. FML

Today, I went to an elementary school for volunteer work. I was asked to read to a group of kids during one of the classes. Before I started reading, a girl raised her hand and asked me if I had a boyfriend and if I was single. I asked her why and she said "My daddy wanted to know." I'm 16. FML

Today, I had to lie to my boyfriend about having plans on tonight so he'd think I had a life outside of him. All my "friends" are going to a party. I'm not invited. FML

Today, my boyfriend came to visit from another state. My mom didn't want me to go to his hotel, but I did. When she asked about it, I lied to her and said I didn't go. She the showed me a picture of my car outside his hotel. FML

I'm 22 and single. Nothing wrong with being single, everything wrong with having to lie - to anyone - about it to save face.

What's so bad about being single at 20? You don't always have to be in a committed relationship all the time. Don't feel bad.

So, you didn't want to look pathetic, so you lied to a 3-year-old about having a boyfriend... and then came to fmylife to post the story, making you look even more pathetic than you would have if you had just told the kid the truth? Smaaart. Seriously, the kid assumed you had a boyfriend. Which means there's something about you that makes her think you would have one. If you had just told her you were single, she probably would have complimented you and boosted your self esteem.

Not having a boyfriend is not the end of the world....I know lots of people your age and older who don't and they are the strongest people I know cuz they don't have to have a man that's in charge of whether or not they'll be happy people. Happiness is what you make it out to be, and if you need a man for that then so be it, but I really think you should find some other things that'll make you happy and not rely on a man for that. Don't you have friends?
