Today, after being supportive for nearly a year, my brother finally came out of the closet and introduced the family to his new boyfriend. His new boyfriend happens to be my ex-boyfriend. Guess I know why that didn't work out now. FML

Today, my brother came out to our parents. They weren't super happy with it, but they said that it was ok since they still had a straight son. I don't know how to tell them that I'm gay too. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me that he was gay and that he is in love with my younger brother. FML
Today, I found out why my boyfriend won't come over anymore. He and my brother apparently had a "thing" before we started dating. FML
Today, someone very close to me came out of the closet. Normally I would fully support them, had we not just gotten married. FML
Today, I had to explain to my brother why he can't go on dates with my new boyfriend and me. FML
Today, my sister came out of the closet. By which I mean she came out as the pregnant mother of my boyfriend's child. FML
Today, I broke up with my boyfriend of 5 years after finally realizing I'm a lesbian. He then outed me to my very religious and conservative family. FML
Today, my brother came out to our family as being gay. My mother starting crying because she "wanted grandchildren." I told her that I was planning on having children. She started crying harder. FML
Today, I'm still in love with my ex-boyfriend, who is going out with someone else now. At least I now know that he's gay. FML
Today, a close friend called me to inform me of his newest relationship, and why he's kept it from me - he's been seeing his male cousin for several months and was tired of hiding it from the world. I had to keep my shock in check over the phone. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Well all u can do is be supportive and don't blame your ex cause he probably didn't know he was gay while he was with you. If you're not supportive and start shit with your ex it will make this entire transition for your brother even harder

That would probably be the first thing I'd find out. If it turns out he'd been cheating with him (explaining the break up), I'd be pissed to no end if I were the OP. Otherwise, that's... rather awkward. Dating the sibling of the person you broke up with... I don't think I'd ever do that, just saying. I'd personally feel like a douche, and feel like everyone else would think so too.

Yeah... any woman who could cause a straight man to turn gay... wins my vote for FML of the month.

I heard the anus is preferable on feeling because it is tighter than a ******. OP OBVIOUSLY didn't want to do anal enough for him. No, kidding.

Imo this isn't even an FML. It's awkward, but he's gay and now dating someone else. So?

yeah i was about to say, whats the FML? the only bad thing i see hear is that you broke up with him and it might be awkward

I really think that once you break up with someone you lose whatever hold you had over them, and they are free to date whoever they want from thereon.

The FML is that he broke up with her to go out with her brother. It's kind of a double betrayal. Her boyfriend (possibly) cheated on her and (assuming her family had met her ex) her brother knew he broke up with her and still decided to begin a relationship with an ex that obviously hurt her.

there is not just black and white, there are plenty of people attracted to both genders. anyway, **** the OP's life, that must be really awkward.

#9 wins for being the first person to get it. Everyone else (above), are you saying that despite the fact that her brother and the ex might, you know, actually love each other- they should just give it up because the OP feels uncomfortable? Seriously? It may be awkward for the OP, but nevertheless, if they do love each other, then don't disrupt it. If you've broken up, then obviously it wasn't working. Besides, you had to like each other to some extent to start dating in the first place- You should have moved on. Kept him as a friend, maybe. Stop whining that your brother has your ex and try to be a little more supportive, would you? *sigh* Now that I'm done venting, I can see your name is 'tryingnottocare'. I wish you luck, then. It can't be that easy, but you should understand and give your brother a chance at happiness, too.

She already said she was being supportive, dumbass. Therr's no reason to assume she would start shit now.
