Today, I realized why my 50 year old Dad's 30 something girlfriend looked so familiar. She is in all my parents wedding photos... as the flower girl. FML
I agree, your life sucks (26815) - you totally deserved it (815)

(-2)I do support the "love is blind" belief but most girls that age are looking for a sugar daddy. Cue music to Kanye West's "Golddigger". It's cliche but true.

(0)At age 30? Not really. I can't say about this case because I don't know them, but in their 30s most women aren't gold-diggers.

Sorry to disappoint you, but I'm in my 30's and I have a ton of friends the same age and NOT A SINGLE ONE OF US are gold diggers/looking for sugar daddies. Don't make generalzations (sorry sp sucks)
(0)"Girls"? Um, most WOMEN in their 30s are adults with better things to do than look for some man to take care of them.
(+1)Gold digger is the stereotype for girls 18-25. Women who are 30-40 are stereotyped as panicking due to their biological clock.
Regardless, why should anyone care about age difference?

(0)Maybe she had seen the wedding pictures often enough

(0)Dude... usually the flowergirl is related to either the bride or groom. Nast

Not necessarily- My flower girls where twin daughters of friends of ours.
#14 - On 11/18/2009 at 7:16am by hem
(-1)#9 did say USUALLY... which doesn't mean ALWAYS. There was no need for your comment #14.
#29 - On 11/18/2009 at 10:10am by just_me_tmp
(0)No need to comment!? Man! Just imagine instead of "the flower girl", OP's dad with "the twin flower girls" OOOH BOY! :D
Anyway, DAD = AWESOME.

(0)#29, the statement while not stating specifically that they were related, implied that they probably where and then said the situation was nasty, thus confirming that #9 thinks the two might be family. It's the same trick the media pulls, they imply without saying and then attack based on an implication, but they're justified because nobody made any ACTUAL accusations. That is why #14 felt the need to argue.

(0)It's....a chicken?
I think you mean "foul." And plenty of people have flowergirls who are the children of friends of the family - or from the other side of the family (i.e. could have been the bride's relative).
(0)That's kind of screwed up, but really has nothing to do with your life let alone being FML worthy... unless your father is forcing you into a 3-way with her or something.
Ew. How old was she when she was the flower girl? Did you know her at the time because your parents married after they had kids or what? So many questions!
#22 - On 11/18/2009 at 9:09am by shameinyou
(0)Your 50-year-old Mom can't be happy about this!
Does this former flower girl have a daughter? If so, you know who your 70-year-old dad will be hooking up with.
(0)Ewww I think the op is just creeped out that her dad's new gf is that young
#26 - On 11/18/2009 at 9:33am by Starfire22
(0)What's the matter? Is she a bitch or something? I can't see what you're whining about. It's not like he's a pedophile or something, or else I doubt he would be interested in somebody who's 30 years old. There's nothing wrong here unless she's a gold digger, and you've given me nothing to believe hat she is. Let your dad be. It's time to get over yourself and move along. Come back if you can think of a real FML for a change.
#27 - On 11/18/2009 at 9:47am by blastvortex
(0)i suppose the fml is the fact that the OP's dad knew his now girlfriend when she was a child which is slightly iffy. I think it would be a bit creepy if he knew the flower girl her whole life, watched her grow up, then starting dating her when she was older.
(0)#29, #14 can speak his mind. and, #9 was making a generalized statement so #14 was alright by responding to it. so, really, there is no need for YOUR comment #29. that does suck OP, I'm sorry

(-1)Dad, you rock. Seriously, the only thing I have to say to large age differences in these situations, is you go. Either male or female, if they are in good enough shape and still cool enough to get someone that far away from their own age, then go for it.
#42 - On 11/18/2009 at 1:42pm by travelingfisher
(0)well, if he's 50 and the girlfriend is 30, that means he was 20 when she was born. so if she was 5-7 as a flower girl, he was 25-27 as the groom...is there something wrong with getting married at 25-27, bayybee?
#47 - On 11/18/2009 at 4:28pm by ovrwhlmdbystupid
(-1)Hahahahaha.
Still...
No idea how this is an FML, so YDI instead.
#48 - On 11/18/2009 at 5:46pm by FoundManyLemons
(0)Honestly, I am tired of all the "my dad is dating someone alot younger than himself" FMLs. However, I can see how this one is a little different.
(0)a good time for pedobear

(0)WOAH that's a little.... damn.
Why don't people realize marrying others so old or so young is going to bite them in the ass in the end? I mean really - she'll be young and up to going out, but he'll be too tired and want to stay home, marriage becomes strained or only sustained by the sex, eventually even that is boring, both are miserable for the rest of their lives.
#56 - On 11/18/2009 at 11:22pm by DameGreyWulf
(0)i highly doubt she would seem familiar just by a picture of her as a kid.
#57 - On 11/18/2009 at 11:49pm by myownbestfriend
(0)Some people never change, or only change very subtly. Anyone who's seen my child pictures can easily pick me out from a line up.
Consider it like this: An artist has a style they have for many years. You look at their recent art and compare it to their old art. You can tell it's the same artist, as it's the same style, but the recent art is better and more professionally done. It still has the same look and feel, it's just more mature. The same can easily be for people, and many other things.
#58 - On 11/19/2009 at 12:09am by DameGreyWulf
(0)Hey the old get tired of dating the old and the young get tired of dating the young so dey mixed it up. Who knows some good may come out of this
#59 - On 11/19/2009 at 1:14am by Lightz_Camera_Me
(0)It is possible to look like yourself as a child. Hell, When my dad was teenager he had long blonde hair. And everyoneeeee in my family thought it was my cousin when they first saw it. People my parents are friends with still recognize me even though they havent seen my since I was in diapers. it happens.
and to OP, that sucks! FYL!

#63 - On 11/19/2009 at 3:29am by CallMeHush
(0)I feel your pain, my dad's 2nd wife is 4 years older than me, I would be jealous except she's a troll!
(0)-___-... that's is really awkward, i think it would be more awkward if you were friends with her in the past... imagine that, your friend sleeping with your dad... weird.
#72 - On 11/22/2009 at 2:28am by sharon_ellj
(0)Aren't flower girls usually related to people getting married? Or very close friends of them, at least? I'm pretty sure it's not only awkward for the daughter... =/
#76 - On 12/24/2009 at 12:29pm by patho_geek
(0)I gusse twenty years isn't that bad, but the flowwer girl? :$ :$ that's sick and twisted is sooooooooo many ways.... FYL
