Today, my house was damaged by a tornado. I called my mother to see if I could stay with her for a few days. Her response? "I warned you not to move in with a man. This is God's way of punishing you." I've been married to said man for almost a year now. FML

Today, I went to help a friend move into her new apartment. We were half-way through when it started to rain, and in my anger I yelled that it's like these things happen just to annoy me. Then we heard the tornado sirens. FML
Today, while watching TV at my mother's house, a tornado warning came across the screen. After being in the dark, nasty basement for half an hour, my mom realized she was watching a recorded show, and that tornado warning was for 2 weeks ago. FML
Today, my husband told me that he's letting his mother move in with us. He told her it was alright without even consulting me first. I hate my mother-in-law so much that I'm contemplating divorce rather than living with her. FML
Today, my mom's intense fear of tornadoes caused her to break into the bathroom, drag me off the toilet while I was changing my tampon, and drag me to the basement with my pants around my ankles to join my father, brother, and my brother's best friend. FML
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 moved in with an older gentleman renting out a room. Tonight, he had a domestic dispute with his girlfriend, who threw a lawn chair at my car. FML
Today, I was told by step-dad, who I live with, that my mom "hates my guts" while smiling so big, because he got a call from her. He's so desperate for her to come back that all the lying, cheating, manipulation, and emotional abuse doesn't push him away. She's a tornado. FML
Today, I was talking to my mom about how my fiancé has been ignoring me and that I didn't know why. Turns out, my mother told him that I was too much of a handful, was mentally disturbed and also cheating on him. Just so I wouldn't move out and would keep cleaning her house for free. FML
Today, my abusive mom just moved into my house, within two weeks of me losing my job. FML
Today, I've not had any contact with my mother for years, and when tornadoes came through our hometown and wiped out most of our downtown area, she didn't contact me at all. I finally contacted her myself. Her reason for not contacting me? She had "watched the news" and "knew I was OK." FML

Seriously, OP, who lives with their husband? You're such a degenerate. Tsk, tsk.

That's so horrible.. I hope you are able to find a new home soon. Your mother should be glad you are safe, not chastising you for something you're obviously committed to.

That tornado.. Was just incredibly horrifying. Nobody should experience something like that, but you must be really strong to stay through it. God bless.

What does tornado and husband have to do with each other? Unless of course we assume the husband is the tornado!

Let's see, God has given you a tornado and your mother. Atheism is looking a little better, huh? Plus, you get to read demonic books!

And movies. Don't forget the demonic movies.

#45, with the tornado and the mom, I didn't think I needed to oversell the idea.

I guess it's alright as long as they don't move in together.

It seems like OP is writing that the man is her or his husband as a justification for living with him. I mean, I agree this is a FML, but as an adult one should have the right to live with whoever he or she wants without having to say "Hey that's okay, we're married !". Like anyone cares.

FYL OP, but be thankful that you are ok and your house was only damaged and not destroyed.

To whoever voted ydi, a lot of people lost everything! So far 51 died, 7 of those people (could still rise by 20) were children at school. There is a 3 year old in the hospital and no one can find his parents. How the hell does anyone deserve a NATURAL DISASTER?? OP, I am glad you made it through this horrible tornado, and there are places that opened up free housing for the VICTIMS of the tornado. Good luck!!

Not that I disagree with your statement, but OP is in Missouri and the big tornado on the news was in Oklahoma. Probably different events (but still bad for OP).

I live in Oklahoma, and it's not like the tornado hit here and just disappeared. it could be the same tornado. thanks.

true, MI and OK share a corner and with such a large weather incident it could easily be the same thing. Point taken.
