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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

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.

So why does everyone get support except for Christians? They aren't all nut cases, just makes me wonder what kind of people you commenters been around for you to hate them so much.. But back on topic, your house was hit by a tornado today and you're on FML? Doesn't seem too serious to me.

It's not so much Christians as it is people who use Christianity to be rude, mean, and in some cases, violent towards others. Those people ARE crazy but you can't exactly separate the good ones from the not so good. I feel like they get a bad rap too but there's no way around it.

If we're talking about Moore, then this is God's way of punishing you for living it a town that's been hit with at least five tornados in fifteen years. If we're not then YOU KNOW WHAT YOU DID!

Well if a tornado happens to come by and flatten your mom's house, tell her you won't help her because it is heaven's way of punishing her for being a...not nice person. XD

This shit is serious. It was a pretty rough tornado that hit Oklahoma. I'm sure for every victim it was just a whirlwind of unfortunate events

I thought it was ONLY OK to live with a man under marriage? Sorry op.

OP, your username made me think of a funny username you could've used: "Hell-bound? No, just hotel-bound." Don't know if it'd all fit, but considering your mother's ridiculous reaction, it seems rather applicable. Also, I am very sorry for what happened to you. :(

Why are some people allowed to live?
