Today, my boyfriend informed me that the mother of his children, from whom he is not divorced yet, is moving back into his house because she broke up with her boyfriend and has nowhere to go. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste
Today, my boyfriend of 8 years moved in with two other women. He's spent the past 2 years telling me he can't afford to move out of his parent's house. FML
I'm outta here
Today, I found out that after moving in with my mother and her boyfriend into his place two months ago, she's breaking up with him, and leaving me stuck with him. Awkward. FML
Today, I found out that after reuniting with an old boyfriend, getting close with his two year old son, and moving closer to him to properly be a part of their lives, he got back together with his ex-wife. FML
Surprise!
Today, my boyfriend told me he’d have a surprise for me when I got home. The surprise was he’d moved out, dumped me, and cut me off from his share of the bills, because he’s not interested in marriage and babies. I can’t afford the rent by myself so I’m going to have to move back to my mother's. FML
Don't tempt me
Today, I made the mistake of telling my boyfriend I was taking my kids to my mother's until he has decided if he wants to carry on being a boyfriend and stepfather. While we were gone, he apparently realised how good his life could be without us, and dumped me. I fucked up. FML
Coming and going
Today, after my relationship ended in a shambles, my partner finally moved out and we were broken up, now, just as I started talking to others and feeling OK with being alone, she revealed that the break was temporary and that she has to move back in temporarily. FML
Today, I let my estranged husband move back in with my son and me. Later, his pregnant and underage girlfriend knocked on my door, crying about how her mom kicked her out. I'm such a pushover, they're in my bed and I'm on the couch. FML
Technique
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me. How? He invited my mother to his house for coffee with his parents, and told her. She then had to come home and tell me I’d been dumped. FML
Independence day
Today, my boyfriend of four years broke up with me because he wanted some independence. He moved back into his parents' house. FML
Besties
Today, my boyfriend's ex-girlfriend just moved in with his mom. They've been in my face knitting and baking bread together. FML

I believe the technical term for that woman is, um, . . . wife.

Come on y'all. I know most of you have never been through a divorce (neither have I) but when you have kids with someone, you'll have a link to them for life. Not an emotional one necessarily, but literally you're going to have to interact with them a lot as long as your kids are minors. If you're uncomfortable with your boyfriend interacting with his soon to be ex-wife, then end it now, because it's not ever going away.

That's why you shouldn't date married men, whether they are supposedly "separated" or not! YDI.

If the choice is between putting the mother of your children on the street and making your new girlfriend happy, in what world is denying your kids' mother a place to stay the better option? If OP's boyfriend ends up back with the ex-wife, that should tell us all something about whether or not the relationship was truly over and if they're not through, it'll probably happen regardless.

Also, use some common ******* sense. If the mom has nowhere to go, do you think the kids have a place to go? Since, you know, parents provide those things?

I can swear you took this from a movie!

To be honest, you deserve it for dating a married man. Just like everyone else is saying-He's thinking about his kids, or atleast he should be. What did you expect. A parent with common sense is always going to think what's in the best interest for the children.

"From whom he is not yet divorced." Just saying. But you were so close! :D

Gee, maybe NOT dating a married man who clearly has some commitment issues would help... Just a thought. After all if he wasn't faithful to her what makes you think he'll be faithful to you? Think things through, is this really a FML, or is it a wake up call?! Sorry to sound bitchy, but you deserve everything you get in this relationship!

The reason you sound bitchy is because you're assuming way to much. Who said he started datind OP before the divorce was filed? Yes, tecnically he is married, but many people begin dating before their divorce is finalized. That doesn't mean that the boyfriend has commitment issues.
