Today, six months have passed since my parents announced that they're getting a divorce. We're all still awkwardly living together because we haven't been able to sell our house yet. FML

Today, a year after we agreed to a divorce, my wife and I are still married and living together because it's not financially possible for us to split. We get along well enough, but I'm ready to move on. She's already moving on, according to the boyfriend she's been seeing for months. FML
Today, my parents have separated. I stayed with them, living at home far too long for my own comfort, just to help them keep it together after they lost their remaining parents. Literally the month after I moved out, they decided it wasn't worth it. I now suspect they stayed together only because I still lived at home. FML
Today, my fiancé of over 5 years and I split, since I don't want kids and he does, which I have told him throughout our relationship. It gets better: we live in a house that his father owns and his father wants me out… in a fucking week. FML
Today, I moved in with my friend and her husband so we can be roommates during school. Today is also the day they decided to get a divorce. It's going to be a long year. FML
Today, I found out about my parent's divorce over Facebook from my sister who lives 8 hours away in another province. They made the decision 3 weeks ago. I live with my parents. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I moved into our own house. He proceeded to invite his parents to stay for the week. The same parents we've lived with for the past 5 years. FML
Today, I got a call from my parents that they have decided to get a divorce. My brothers and I just shelled out $5,000 each and spent months planning their 50th Anniversary party that was supposed to be next month. FML
Today, my parents told me they're getting a divorce because of all the strain caused by me nearly dying in an accident. FML
Today, my parents happily announced that they're getting remarried. They divorced because of the strain brought on by me nearly dying in a car accident. So basically they put us through all that shit, including me blaming myself for everything, for nothing. 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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I'm horrible at expressing myself through messages or comments, but... I truly am sorry, OP. Just try to be optimistic and try not to let it affect you too much. Easier said than done, I know. (I'm very pessimistic.) Again, I am sorry.

I'm sorry about your situation and I'm not trying to be rude, if you're already 21 (and I'm assuming) have a job why not just rent an apartment or something? =/

#63 I start a new job next week, but I'm flat broke right now. I have literally no money to be able to move out. And my hours for the new job are still pending, so I don't know if I'll be able to earn enough at the job to be able to live on my own for at least several months. Please don't make assumptions... :( The job market is pretty difficult nowadays!

Someone needs a lesson in respect.

#65 Actually, a year has passed. So I've been in the situation for a year. I truly am sorry for your situation, but attacking me because you're going through the same thing doesn't sound like a good solution. How about offering advice about how to deal with this since you seem to be experienced in the matter? No? Oh well.

Your situation is unbearable at best and at worst, you feel like killing yourself. Don't kill yourself, but try to find a little space where you can just be by yourself if that is possible. Do you have a church to go to? It might have people that would help you.

Good for you. I'm sure you can have some empathy in that heart of yours, since you're going through relatively the same thing. Don't be a dick.
