Today, I went to confession. I told the priest that I had an intimate relationship with a woman that I'm not married to. He chuckled and said, "You know, lying is a sin too." I wasn't lying. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, while I was in confession telling my sins to the priest, he called me a "pain in the ass." FML
Today, while helping at my grandma's church, the new Orthodox Priest encouraged me to come to confession because he was sure I would have "a lot of stories to tell" and finished by seductively winking at me. FML
Today, I lied and told my friends I was a compulsive liar. Well, I think I lied. FML
Today, one of my employees lied to his mother and told her that I’m his girlfriend, so she actually came to invite me to Sunday dinner. Nice woman, but I had to tell her he lied, since I’m married, to my wife. She kicked up a huge stink in the shop and accused me of using her son for "hetero sex". FML
Today, some guy I’ve been talking to showed up at my house while I was on video call with my boyfriend. I had to confess to a stupid situation I had no business being in. FML
Today, I confessed my feelings to the girl I like, who also happens to be my coworker. She told my boss, and they're laughing about it as I type this. FML
Today, I confessed to my boyfriend that I was in love with his best friend. He confessed that he was too. FML
Today, I went to my dad, hoping to confess something to him. He quickly said that if I'd got my girlfriend pregnant, he'd kill me. That's exactly what happened. I had to make up a lie instead about stealing $50 from his wallet once as a kid, which he then demanded I pay back in full. FML
Today, I was drunk at a party and confessed my love for my crush and told her how I felt. According to my friends, I made out with another girl not long after my confession. FML
Today, at a bar, a drunk girl kissed me, so I went home and confessed what happened to my girlfriend. She forgave me but took it as permission to admit she’s cheated sexually at least once a month for over a year, then got mad I didn’t immediately forgive her like she forgave me. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

He's not saying he cheated on his wife, explicitly, he's saying he had sex with a woman who he's not married to - it could just be someone he met on a night out, a 'friend', etc, etc and while he's single. In either case, so what, why would you have to marry someone to express passion and love? Sex is a symbol of all that. And guess what, you marry someone because you love him/her, you don't love the person because you marry him/her. Love preceeds marriage and if God intended to say that loving someone you're not married to is wrong, then God is wrong and therefore bad.

maybe he was just pointing out that you have also probably lied and need to confess about that... get over it and be happy your priest has a sense of humor

A priest with a sense of humor- I like this guy. The fact that he was able to joke about it probably suggests that the confessor was not married (I think if there was a wife and maybe a kid involved, the priest would be a lot more serious). I think the priest was just trying to make you relax a little before giving you advice. Based on another FML, hopefully he told you (among other things) that the answer is not to call the woman and blame her for tempting you.

If your priest really did say this, I have to wonder: Has he actually READ the bible? Come to think of it, have ANY christians? Not just the parts they want to read and quote- I mean the whole thing.

#20: I think he was joking when he said lying is a sin. I doubt he actually didn't believe the guy.
