Today, while visiting my widowed great aunt, she took out her wedding rings and talked about the love she and my uncle had. Smiling, I told her that one day I hope to have as happy a marriage as theirs. Her response? "Knowing you, I wouldn't count on it." My mother sat there agreeing. FML

Don't listen to them, I'm sure you'll find a nice person one day :) Prove them wrong!

Retort with "Knowing you, I'm surprised uncle didn't die sooner." If you went out of your way to say something positive and she shat on it, you might as well throw it back at her. Just don't resort to thumping your chests and walking around on all fours.

Look at it this way.. If you don't find someone by the time you're 80, you can always strip in a food court. You won't have any children or grandchildren to stop you. I'd take the opportunity to say something classy like, "any takers?" Or "last call!" Though if you freeze under pressure and the only words that come out of your mouth are "who wants chowder!" You're going to die alone. Best of luck!

Wait, a great aunt would be married to a great uncle. The relationship between a great aunt and an uncle is mother-son. So, if you are comparing their love to that between you and your husband: Yuck!

Perhaps Op, this proves one thing: They don't know you as well as they think they do. :p Ignore them, Op. You don't need naysayers like that in your romantic personal life anyways. :p

Well, if you aren't as picky and bitchy as Taylor Swift, who, let's face it, will never find true happiness because she can't see past her own fake face, then you should be able to one day. It takes time, but the best ones are always worth waiting for

Even though I listen to rap mainly but Taylor Swift is one of the only person in the music business that tries to set good example for kids. She might have relationship problem but she is only ******* 20 so chill out. Let see how your life is if every thing you do gets huge media coverage?

Really guys? The fml has nothing to do with Taylor swift. Let's just stop this flame war before it starts.

My point that I was trying to make was that she writes about all of these bad relationships she has. But you never hear her admit to her doing anything wrong.... And that is also in interviews and whatnot.... She just dumped that Kennedy guy, and I'm waiting for that song..... God forbid her and Adele never break up because I don't think we could handle those albums

This really is almost unbelievably rude of you. Yes, I agree that Taylor Swift writes about failed relationships too much, but I would never attack anyone the way you did. You seem to have gone out of your way just to insult her.

You have posted 5 comments and are 17..... Of course you're going to defend her

That has nothing to do with it. I don't like her. I'm just not rude enough to bash her on the internet. She has fans, and I don't want to hurt people. How would you feel is someone said something like that about you?

If the worlds fattest woman can find tall, dark and handsome I have faith everyone can find love. Don't get too down

I came to a conclusion after i started reading FMLs old people are mean, crazy, and just don't give a shit about what they say. They're freaking awesome.

Disney already taught me to never trust old people.

Yeah true they are senile old bastards in the Disney movies. Trying to poison girls with apples and making them be slaves and what not.

Old people are just psychotic female monarchs in disguise. Every single one.

She knows you very well, she completely shattered your hopes. :)

Maybe they both know you better than you think?
