Today, I got in an argument with my teacher for always comparing me to my sister that she had a few years before. After I said, "I'm not my sister so please stop comparing me to her," she responded, "Of course you're not your sister, I actually like your sister." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Today, while home from college for the weekend, my sister started whining about how I keep using "big fancy college words" and making her feel bad. My sister is 27 and teaches elementary school. The word I used was "ludicrous." FML
Today, my sister was upset because she felt like no one liked her. Without thinking, I replied, "It's okay. If I acted like you, people would probably hate me, too." This sounded sympathetic in my head. FML
Today, my sister teased me about being a mistake baby. When I told my mom what my sister said, her response was "I still love you anyway". FML
Daddy's little girl
Today, I got into a screaming fight with my little sister. Why? Because I'm getting "too chummy" with our new stepmom, who by the way is a very sweet woman, and has made our dad so happy since they met. But my sister has made up her mind that all stepmothers are evil. She's seventeen and still thinks like this. FML
Mind your own business
Today, I got into a heated argument with my big sister, all because she doesn't like me having a girlfriend. She said that I either lose her or my girlfriend, and I chose to lose her. She blocked me. FML
Today, I was complaining to my mom about how my sister looked like a barbie doll next to me. I was saying how she was so tan and her hair looked awesome next to mine. She paused for a while and then said "Well you're pretty on the inside." FML
Hammerhead
Today, I had to listen to my classmate loudly argue a question she got wrong on a test for half an hour, repeating the same incorrect argument ad nauseam. She screamed at the rightfully exasperated teacher for being "biased" when he gave up, and started screaming again when I tried to explain it in a different way. FML
Leave me out of it
Today, my sister and mom were arguing. My sister was being really nasty to my mom, and decided to get nasty with me and drag me into the argument. Naturally, I got nasty back at her and we started fighting. My mom yelled at me for getting nasty with my sister, and kicked me out of the house for “being too nasty.” FML
Outrage monger
Today, my sister blamed me for everything again. We're twins and have the same friends, but they all like her better because she's an extrovert and I'm an introvert, and I'm sick of her getting mad at me, copying me, blaming me and making my life miserable for no reason. Why does everyone think I'm so pathetic? FML
Friendship is magic
Today, my sister-in-law told me calmly that she never cared for me, likes her brother's ex more than me, and probably will always dislike me. It was our first serious conversation ever, that I initiated because I wanted to "maintain our great friendship." FML

I bet your sister wouldn't have posted an FML about this.

To be honest I would say that too. I am a teacher but I could say something horrible to someone and sound serious. Afterwards I would say Im joking

I know how you feel OP. I too live in the shadow of my older sister. Some people just call me "Jenna's sister" instead of by my actual name.

Your teacher is an asshole, and you need to tell your parents and tell the principal and get this bitch fired.

SHE WAS JOKING! TEACHERS CAN JOKE.

Doesn't sound like the teacher was joking. And remember the teacher constantly does this. Also, if OP is making an FML about it, I'm pretty sure she was serious

Maybe it's your attitude don't argue with teachers YDI

Right because it's okay for a teacher to blatantly say "your sister was better than you". No. Teachers don't have ******* divine right and I feel like sometimes they forget that they are talking to someone who deserves respect they want. Honestly, if a teacher is going to talk to her students like that, she isn't fit to be a teacher.

Also, if this is a constant thing that the teacher does, OP is more than entitled to say something because students aren't just supposed to blindly listen to a teacher just because of their title. It's also legally regulated that teachers respect their students the same and he teacher wasn't doing so.

Teachers can joke around, it's not like they're supposed to be über serious 24/7.

I think there is a difference between joking around and telling a kid that their sibling is better than them. There are these things called boundaries.

You shouldn't say that to your teacher, no matter how much you hate the bitch. Your life will be a living hell now.

That's so wrong! I am the oldest of 5 and never has this happened with my younger siblings. That teacher is wrong every person is different and I'm sure you are just as great as your sister. That teacher just made a dick move. Stay amazing and do great!
