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

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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

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!

Hahahah wow that's awkward. But why "even though"? Is it because they've been married for so long? Being married for a long time doesn't automatically sentence you to boredom; some couples still know how to make their marriage unconventional or exciting. If it's because they've had a long, happy marriage, then just because they have threesomes doesn't mean they're unsatisfied with each other at all. Also, some people are polyamorous, which might be the case here since this other woman's been around for a while.

I can only see this as an FYL situation if you walked in on them going at it.

If it's a guy, he might be your dad.

FYL: your parents should have told you.

FYL, but did you really want to know?? idk about you, but i would rather live in blissful ignorance rather than know who completes my parent's threesome.. or that they even have threesomes... or sex for that matter. gross.

Your parents are poly... get over it.

Not necessarily. Threesome != poly.

So, OP, are you sure that your "Dad" is actually your father? Is it possible that "Uncle **** Buddy" is your real dad???

I don't see the appeal of threesomes. I'm a guy and i would never do any sort of threesome.

I myself was in a threesome and got out of it but that's me. I prefer a monogamous relationship over a poly any day.
