Today, my dad found and read my diary. Most of the entries were about how my father didn't respect my privacy. Then he phoned my aunt and read her passages from it. 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, I found my long lost diary and curiously read it. What's worse than finding out that your mother read your diary? Finding out that your mother wrote comments in it. FML
Today, I found my childhood diary stashed in a box in the attic. I flipped to the last page and noticed a little note written by my now deceased father. It read, "Well son, this diary proves that you're a whiny asshole - Dad." Thanks Dad, from beyond the grave. FML
Today, my mom read my diary. Then she frantically booked me an appointment with a psychiatrist. FML
Out and about
Today, my grandfather found my diary laying in the living room, and for some reason thought it was an interesting reading material. Oh well, he found out that I'm a lesbian, then panicked and basically outed me to my entire family. I really hope they have reservations in Hell. FML
Today, I found out that the person sending me secret love letters was actually my dad, who felt sorry for me. FML
Betrayal
Today, my sister admitted to selling pages of my diary to my old boyfriends. FML
Today, feeling very distant from my daughter recently, I decided to sneak a peek in her diary to see what was on her mind. The book was apparently one of those that play the sound of a woman screaming when opened improperly, and alerted everyone in the house to my actions. FML
No Ragrets
Today, I rummaged around in the attic, looking for old pictures of me and my family, so I could make a surprise collage. Instead, I found my dad's old journals, talking about how desperately he didn't want a kid, and how he wanted to leave my mother more and more every day that passed since I was born. FML
Today, I checked my sister's diary, because I was worried about her recent angry and withdrawn behavior. She caught me in the act, and my mom, whom I've caught blatantly snooping through my stuff multiple times now, grounded me for my "disgusting" violation of my sister's privacy. FML
Trust
Today, I found out that my husband read my journal behind my back when he got mad over something I'd written in it. This is the same journal that my therapist told me to keep, to help me get past my trust issues. FML

Well, this only proves that you're right. FYL and good luck alienating your dad from his snooping, OP.

dont worry! i totally get that too! one time my dad came in my room and saw me texting so, even though he was a bit drunk, he made me show all of my text messages to him.

Wouldn't he kinda like catch on by just reading the diary?

@101 - You're a jerk. Many people still keep diaries, myself included. They're a great way to express yourself, and for once, actually be honest with yourself about who you really are and what you really feel about someone/something/yourself/etc. Unfortunately, OP's dad found hers and that lead her here to FML; to post her story and not to be criticized by you.
