Today, I found out that even though my parents have been married for 21 years, our "family friend," who routinely accompanies us on family vacations, completes their threesome. Everyone in town has known for years, except for me and my older brother. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I just found out that my brother in law and his wife frequent a swingers establishment that me and the wife have visited. Which is OK I suppose (providing we never see each other there) but he told me his parents go there too. FML
Today, my boyfriend let me in on a little family secret. His brothers often swap girlfriends and wives. They insist it’s not weird because the siblings themselves aren’t doing anything together, just the in-laws. It’s still too close for comfort and too weird to ignore. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I introduced our parents to each other, and they seemed to have already met somewhere, so I asked them about it. At first they seemed shifty, then guilty, then admitted everything. They’ve actually known each other for decades as part of the same swingers group. FML
Today, due to my parents divorcing 30 years ago, marrying other people, and giving me a handful of half siblings, I found myself in the uniquely unpleasant situation of walking in on my sister having sex with my brother. (Stop panicking, they’re not blood related to each other, work it out!) FML
Today, I learned that not only is my husband having an affair with my own mother, but my whole family knew. They were keeping it a secret from me for 3 months. FML
Today, my dad's face flushed when I introduced him to my new boyfriend. I live in a small town, and it turns out my dad recognized him. He's the secret child from an affair two decades ago. He's my half-brother. FML
Today, I found out the truth about my parents’ divorce and why our family is so distant. Turns out my dad had an affair with not one, but two of my mom’s sisters. And that my youngest cousin is also my half-sister. FML
Today, I brought my new girlfriend home for dinner. My mom was being unusually quiet, so I thought she was trying to be polite. After dinner, she pulled me aside and asked why I'd never mentioned that my girlfriend had dated my brother. Apparently everyone knew except me. FML
Today, I found out that my husband has been cheating on me with his girl bestie for 4 years. I also found out he's been having threesomes with his male bestie. Both people have been around me and my family this entire time. We've been married for 15 years. Joke's on me. FML
Today, I discovered that my stepbrother has been telling his friends that I'm his girlfriend. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Oh wow...what do you even say to that? Well, when it comes time to leave home, I suggest you and your brother go far away XP.

OK - things like this - you don't need to know about your folks. Best thing is to realise it is their issue to deal with - nothing you can do. Just be glad you haven't walked in on them!

YDI for not realizing that parents can and do have sex lives too. Just because you know what sex is doesn't mean they're going to stop having it--and if they're into threesomes then that's their thing. Who are you to judge?

Why the hell do you care so much about what your parents do and don't do in the bedroom that you had to make it an FML? It's their lives, and I don't see why you seem to think you and your older brother should have known about it.

How this a FML? I would be glad to be in the dark about it xD Then they can have sex all they want and I won't be plagued with visuals but I think its funny the whole town knows, I wonder how many parents actually like you or just pretend xDD

I am confused! Did they ask you and your brother to join in? Your parent's have sex, and apparently think it is still the 1970's... who cares..

why does having a threesome mean they "still think it's the 1970s"?
skullbuster 0
The threesome isn't what makes it seem like the 1970's. This isn't some random guy they are "hooking up with" but instead a long-time **** buddy who they invite into their marriage and their family - it's more indicative of the 1970's sexually expressive culture in the US.

I have to disagree with all the people saying it's not the OP and her brother's business. It certainly IS their business, if this third person is going on FAMILY trips and stuff. If they were having sex with the parents discreetly, and the kids didn't know about them at all (or minimally) it would be different. But the parents chose to bring this person into their kids' lives too, making this person part of the family. Therefore they should have been open with the kids about who this person really is. They don't have to get into sex stuff, but they could at least explain that the person is part of the relationship, part of the family, etc, instead of just having this mystery person always hanging around, confusing the kids.
