Today, in the middle of telling my mother about my engagement, she suddenly broke down in tears about her problems at work and her loveless marriage, and abruptly hung up on me. FML

Wow! I can't believe this got published! To fill you guys in, my stepdad is just going through a rough time and it's taking its toll on my mom. She is better now and congratulated us both! Thanks to everyone who congratulated us as well! (I'm not sure if FML will show my OP-ness because I'm using the mobile app. If it doesn't, I promise I'm not a troll) :)

So what you are really annoyed about is that she made the conversation all about her when you wanted it to be all about you?

Maybe your happiness made her realize how unhappy her life is. Comfort her through her problems and celebrate your good news afterwards (:

Just goes to show you, get out of an unhappy marriage or relationship, life's too short to be miserable.

Talk to her about her problems she needs it. Obviously your news of your engagement was the straw that broke the camel's back. Congratulations by the way :)
