Today, my mom took a picture of me. All she could say about the picture was, "At least your sister is pretty." FML

Today, my dad found the ugliest picture my mom has ever taken. I show it to her laughing. She said it looks like me. I looked again and it kind of does. FML

Today, my mom wanted to send me a picture of me at graduation, saying that I looked pretty in it. It was a picture of a different girl; definitely not me. Way to go, mom. FML

Today, my mom and I were looking at pictures from the beach. She goes, "That is a REALLY ugly picture of Michelle" (my cousin). The picture was of me. FML

Today, feeling very self-conscious about my looks, I told my mom I felt ugly and wished I could be as beautiful as her. She only said, "Yeah, I'm pretty, I wonder what happened to you." FML

Today, I was complaining to my mom about how my sister looked like a barbie doll next to me. I was saying how she was so tan and her hair looked awesome next to mine. She paused for a while and then said "Well you're pretty on the inside." FML

Today, I had a look at the pictures my mom took during my birthday a couple of weeks ago. Every single one is of my sister. Her lighting the candles, her watching me open presents, and her eating cake. The only pictures of me are in the background. FML

Picture perfect
Today, I was having lunch with my sister and my mother. While my mom was busy ordering food, my sister said to me, "Look at this!" then contorted her face so that she had a double chin. My mother looked over and said to her, "Stop making fun of your sister!" FML

Today, I had to get my picture taken for a volunteer badge at the hospital. My sister came home and told my parents that she'd had a horrible day at work. They showed her my picture to cheer her up. FML

Today, my sister was dumped by her boyfriend. As my mother was comforting her, I overheard her say "Honey, it's okay, you're the pretty one. Think of those worse off than you. Think of your sister, she might never get a boyfriend." FML

Honestly, there are just some people who take horrible pictures. It doesn't mean you look horrible outside if those pictures. Chin up. :)

Awweee at least you aren't twins though!
Pleonasm 35
If they were identical twins then the sister being pretty would also make OP pretty.

Would be bad if they are...

how is that good?

Not all identical twins look alike. There is such a things as the "prettier/cuter twin". Ex: Zack & Cody. Though I doubt it applies to this 5ML

At least you have personality!!

#49 if twins aren't identical then they'd be fraternal...
Enslaved 36
Yes, 54 but even identical twins have slightly different features that can make one more appealing over the other. I have identical twins in my family and I can tell them apart by tiny details such as a mole or a few pounds difference to name a few. (:

My fiancé and is brother are identical twins. My brother in law has major acne and is thinner than my fiancé who works out regularly and has a slightly wider build. Just being identical doesn't make them both automatically attractive. Certain features aren't genetic and may be seen as unattractive.

Didn't think that comment through huh.

We all have bad baby pictures, assuming it was one...
Pleonasm 35
You're assuming OP posted this as a baby? You do know it says "today" don't you?

Edit; Congratulations changing your comment from SWAG YOLO to this, now my previous comment is 100% invalid.
Welshite 39
I'm pretty certain it wasn't a baby picture, but you do know that a lot of published FMLs have occurred in the past, don't you, Pleonasm? The "today" is required regardless.
Pleonasm 35
No shit. But what "today" DOES mean, is that it was sometime recent enough to exclude it being when they were a baby.
Mickey0186 11
No one is going to post " 18 years ago when I was a baby......blah-blah"
Pleonasm 35
Exactly. They would post "today my mom found a picture of me she had taken when I was a baby." What you did was take an FML dealing solely in the one past tense- the photo being taken and then the remark being made happening at the same time- and turned it into an FML dealing in two different past tenses. You're assuming that OP actually meant that these two events happened at two different times, when there is no logic behind that at all.

I guess we know who's the favorite. I'm sorry OP

Favoritism always hurts though, my condolenses.

She could still be the favourite, her mum just said her sister was prettier
isuckwithnames 22
Not true. My brother and I know that our sister is our mom's favorite.

Yeah it could be the camera's fault! Just think of it like a sunset. It could be the most beautiful sunset in the world but a picture of it would never be able to look even half as amazing. So OP is just like a sunset. :)

sorry that was mean from her, don't worry OP I am sure you are beautiful in your own way :)
