A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Today, I just got my first period. My mother has been dead for years and my stepmother genuinely wishes I was dead, so who am I supposed to tell? FML

Today, I got a birthday card from my parents. It was my sister's from earlier in the year. They scratched out her name and wrote mine underneath. FML

Today, my daughter got her first period. I'm the one shaking and hyperventilating. I'm more nervous for her than I was for myself back when I got my first period. I just now understand my mom while she was pacing through house back and forward when I got my first. FML

Today, I called my mom to tell her that I finally got my period. There was an awkward pause. She was at work. I was on speakerphone. FML

Today, my mum, who always wanted more kids than just me, started crying because I'm not pregnant with her first grandchild yet. I'm 16, and this all started because I got my period and I asked to borrow one of her tampons because I'd ran out of my own. FML

Oh, God, your life SUCKS. My dad wouldn't even want to KNOW I started my period. :) He'll just have my mom take care of it. :)

My dad still doesn't know I got mine. I mean, he probably does, but I'm never actually gonna tell him. I'll be denying it long after I turn 30. Some things are just too awkward ...

hearing stories like this makes me extremely happy to be transgender. People tend to try and ignore the fact I'm actually a girl!

LOL! I moderated this one :) When I got mine for the first time my mom ran downstairs to tell my dad, brother, and grandmother :( That was awkward.
