Today, after I had changed my number to get away from my abusive ex, my mom decided to give him my new one. She insists that I need to give him another chance. FML

Today, my mom told my abusive ex-boyfriend, whom I broke up with 5 days ago, that he is always welcome at my house. She "misses him". FML
Today, I finally got a restraining order against my violent ex. My mom now keeps finding ways to tell me how shitty I am for breaking the "poor boy's" heart and how I didn't deserve him anyway. FML
Today, I had to change my mobile number because I was getting abuse from a guy, so I sent my new number to all of the people on my contact list. Including him. FML
Today, my mom ambushed me with my cheating ex-fiancé, thinking being in the same room would miraculously change the past and we’d get back together. When I tried to walk out, my mom screamed like a banshee and latched onto my leg. After this I’m putting her in a retirement home and never visiting. FML
Today, my mom came to me, hysterically crying that her boyfriend had hit and choked her. I’d feel bad for her except he’s my ex who also beat me, yet when I turned to my mother for help she decided to take him in instead and get pregnant with his kid. What goes around comes around bitch! FML
Today, my mom still spends time with my ex because, as she puts it, we might be divorced now but there’s no reason they can’t still be friends. This is the woman who tricked me into raising another man’s baby for three months before I got suspicious and got a paternity test. Screw you mom. FML
Today, my mother shared my phone number with my brother, despite my explicit wishes that she didn't. He immediately went and put it on Craigslist and several other websites. This is the fourth time I've had to change my number for that very same reason. FML
Today, my mom called me to tell me she'd got in touch with my ex for his birthday, and that the two of them had made a plan for us to get back together. My new boyfriend was in the process of proposing to me. FML
Today, my abusive ex-stepfather managed to file a protection order on my sweet mum. Now, both of my younger siblings can no longer see or talk to her, and the police came to our door and took them. If they truly thought she was dangerous, wouldn't they take me too? He even has a real criminal record of abuse, and my mom is clean. FML
Today, after 4 days of avoiding me and screening his calls, my 24-year-old boyfriend sent his mother to break up with me on his behalf. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Your mom is a piece of shit, OP. Sorry. I ignorantly fell for that same crap with my ex. My mother convinced me to take him back and when I did, not 48 hours later he broke literally my face, my arm and dislocated my shoulder. I haven't spoken to her since, and that was 11 years ago. Stick with your gut. Stay away from your clearly toxic mother, change your number, and if you're able to, move.

Why not pay the monthly $5 fee to block his number?

Or you could always use an app free of charge :)

If he's an abusive and controlling asshole, he'd probably just buy a new phone or call from unknown numbers. There are too many easy ways to get around having your number blocked.

Then how about a restraining order?

Tell your mom you insist she shouldn't be giving out your number.

Am I the only one that thinks this is an awkward FML. Normally they are like sarcastic, ironic or have a punchline. This is pretty straight forward and tragic. It's so serious it's sorta funny

I think your mom needs to watch more Lifetime movies...

You may have to distance yourself from her as well. Very bad of her.

Honestly? Get away from your mom. Sue her or whatever, but what she did was really shit.

Mom doesn't always know best.
