Today, I was awoken by a conversation my mom was having with my dog upstairs. She was telling my dog that a ghost lives in our house. She was completely serious. The ghost even has a name and a backstory. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I found out my mom recently stopped taking her medication. I came home to find she'd shot my dog because she thought he was possessed by the devil. FML
Today, my mom was in a really bad mood, so I stayed in my room to avoid her. It didn't take long before she barged in and started bitching about my dog, who'd pissed her off by acting too happy. Yes, she's actually that insane, and I have to deal with it on a daily basis. FML
Today, my mom is trying to be quiet, thinking me asleep. This means she will whisper to the dogs in the upstairs hallway, then quietly go downstairs where she will bang the doors so hard that the house shakes. Apparently, she thinks each floor is in its own separate dimension. FML
Today, I heard someone calling my name. It was my neighbor. Turns out they named their dogs after my mother, my sister, and me. FML
Today, I was sitting in my room watching TV when I heard my mother obnoxiously yelling for the dog. Minutes later she stomped into my room, swatted me over the head, and yelled at me for not answering when she called. She actually got my name mixed up with the dog's. FML
Today, I listened to my mom having a conversation with my dog, asking him if he ate my hamster. My hamster isn't even dead. FML
Today, my dog started barking at literally nothing in the middle of the night. I spent 15 minutes convinced there was a ghost or something in my house, only to realize she was barking at her own shadow. FML
Today, I was over at my boyfriend's house and I heard a strange sound. I laughed and said, "It sounds like a dog throwing up!" He listened for a second and said, "That's my mom crying downstairs." FML
Today, my mother locked me out of the house. Why? The dog and her needed some time to talk. FML
Today, my mother woke me up at 4:30 A.M. to tell me our dog was running down the street. I ran for an hour, chasing after her. Turns out it was our new neighbor's dog. Ours was in our basement. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

How is this an FML? Sure, you're mom might be crazy, but at least it sounds like she's a fun kind of crazy. And hey, how do you know there's no ghost?

ps: she sounds pretty lonely to me. instead of judging your mom and putting her on blast all up on the ****** internet, for sone FML brownie poins, why don't you actually engage in a conversation with her, and act like you still care about her. ...she may not always be there, yunno.

i guess I'll have to start proof-reading my own iPhone posts before I hit "send" ...let's hope everyone knew I meant "some" and "points"

Agreed, but only if not done already. I mean, if they have a perfectly normal relationship, I certainly would be raising an eyebrow upon hearing her having that kind of conversation with a dog... In my opinion, ghosts are a load of BS.

not to disagree with you, but just because there's no proof of ghosts, scientifically, doesn't completely rule them out. you can't prove love exists beyond tolerance, doesn't meant it's not real to some folks. it's sorta like black holes, string theory, or quantum physics and whatnot. I'm not saying any of the above is "real" beyond an individual's perception. ...but I'm no scientist, or um..poet.

My mom has conversations with my dog all the time. She sings to him even more often. Tbh I think she misses when my brother and I were still kids so now she treats the dog like a baby. It's a little weird when she asks him if he went to school today though. |:

@ MrMad We certainly can't prove whether they exist or not. I think it also has to do with if you're open/willing to see them or interact with them or not (which also creates the question if it is not a simple hallucination created by the person that sees them). Myself I am certainly not willing to, and that is also the reason I didn't say that I thought it was a fact that they are a load of BS, but an opinion ^^. I do think black holes sound kinda cool lol!

Agree with #16. I'm not sure if OP was complaining about the ghost, the dog-whispering mother, or being woken up. Either way, I don't see the problem. Tell your mum you heard her and you might learn something about the history of your house and engage your mum in the process.

haha really? Her mom was talking to a dog. Who cares? Do you own pets? Her talking to a dog doesn't mean she's lonely at all. I don't know how people read into these so much.

I don't reckon op was worried bout her mum talkin to the dog. but that she was downstairs, posibly completely alone. and listening to her mum talk about a ghost who has a full backstory an name lol

I don't get it. Is your mom insinuating to your dog that you are a ghost? The dog wont understand, even if she is. This is definitely not an FML. The imaginary third button should read "Get a life and stop posting stupid shit on FML". Posers. Some people have stories worth telling, yet we get this. I only moderate to read the good ones, as it seems even when I vote yes nobody else does.

By that, I meant that it isn't worth moderating, because good FMLs don't get in anyway.
