Today, my mom turned to me and said, "You know, you're the kind of person that has to change literally everything about themselves to get a guy to like you." I thought she was joking so I laughed. She then said "Like that. Your laugh... What is that? Change that." FML

Today, I came home crying and informed my mother that someone had called me a 'fat bitch' today. She held me at arms length, looked me straight in the eyes, and lovingly said, "You can't change who you are." FML

Today, and since we met, my girlfriend has forced me to change my hair, clothing and jewellery, and my diet. She has changed basically everything about me. Then this morning she dumped me because I'm "not the guy she fell in love with a year ago". I'm not even upset because its too funny. FML

Today, my mom told me my relationship is a joke, because teenagers don't understand the meaning of relationships and commitment. I couldn't help but remind her how she's divorced three separate men to date. She hit me over the head so hard that snot flew out of my nose. FML

Today, my mom tried to give me a pep talk to boost my self confidence. Somehow, it ended up turning into a conversation about how much of a loser I am and how I have no friends. FML

Today, I came out to my parents. My mother laughed and, when I asked her what was so funny, she told me, "Well, most gays are attractive, muscular, funny and can dress very well. You're ugly, fat, boring, and have no sense of fashion. Good luck." FML

Today, I finally thought that my mother was okay with me being a lesbian. Then, over dinner, she turns to me and says, "So, do you still think you like girls, or are you going to start being normal again?" FML

wow. geez. don't listen to her. I'm sure everything about you is great! Never change yourself for a guy. When the perfect guy comes along, he will love you just the way you are. Plus, don't let those comments hurt you. Yes, it was offencive, but let it just roll off your back. Live your life to the fullest and love every moment of it! Much love.

I don't think it was meant to be stereotypical. He was just making an observation, that's all. Jesus Christ, people! Calm the hell down!!

What the hell does that even mean? We aren't robots with the exact same tone of voice so I see no way you could possible determine that an ugly person would have a less than appealing laugh and a pretty person would have a "totally cute" laugh. The fact that I know some amazingly pretty girls who laugh like donkeys does nothing but support my arguement :P

Dude, screw mothers. Well, not literally but you know what I mean. My mom's ridiculously critical, too. "Go exercise; your love handles look like tires." "You need to wear more makeup." "Why aren't you studying? (Because that's what I need to do 24/7)." "[Why is everything you do in your life wrong?]"--coming soon But hey, they're oldies. What do they know?

Your mom sounds like she has a serious personality disorder. Have you ever read anything about Narcissistic Personality Disorder or Borderline Personality Disorder? The book "Understanding the Borderline Mother" by Christine Ann Lawson might be helpful. Your mom is mentally ill. Don't blame yourself.
