Today, whilst on a date I recieved my sixth missed call from my mother. I excused myself and went outside and called her, she and my father wanted to know why I was having dinner and holding hands with another man. It turns out they were also on a date. At the same place. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I went on a first date with a guy I really like. He brought up that there was a person staring at us from a nearby table. That person was my mom. FML
Today, I went on a date, and halfway through I started getting nonstop calls from “Mom” on my phone. Annoyed, I silenced them. Later, I checked my voicemail. It was actually my mom calling from the ER because she had slipped and broken her ankle. FML
Today, I called my mom to see how she was doing. She quickly hijacked the conversation and said that she's signed me up for a dating site, because she feels bad that I can't find a decent man. I've been dating my boyfriend for seven months, and she's seen me with him multiple times. FML
Today, I went on a movie date with a guy. He brought his mom. FML
Today, I went on a first date with a guy I met online. We hit it off, and he invited me back to his place. As soon as we got there, his mother came out of nowhere and started interrogating me about "my intentions." FML
Today, a woman turned up uninvited at my house, ready for our first date. After some embarrassed investigating, it turns out my mother signed me up to Tinder and arranged a date, all without telling me, because she refuses to believe I prefer solitude over dating. FML
Today, I discovered I was at the same restaurant as my ex and his new girlfriend. Quickly, I picked up my mother's phone when she wasn't looking, and began to pretend to talk to a fake new boyfriend. Few seconds later, the waiter loudly asked me if I was done talking into the calculator. FML
Today, I had a first date with a guy I met online. And his mom. FML
Today, my boyfriend decided to take me out bowling. My mom was going to take us. My parents ended up bowling with us. I had a double date with my parents. FML
Today, I went on a coffee date with a guy I'm interested in. He picked up his phone mid-date to finalize dinner plans with another girl. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Oops! Well you had to come out eventually, but FYL :- Also: not last! :-) (I'll be teed off if they close the topic though)

Your parents must not have been too upset - at least they didn't barge over to your table and demand to know what was up.

#46. I wish I were still a kid. I’m 30. But thanks for your lack of insight.

according to your profile you're 29 so some where you're lying. Also gay isn't a choice and neither is being ignorant because there really is no free will

Because ages 29 and 30 are so far apart.

Heheh, whoops...time to break the news. And #47, don't make retarded statements unless you're prepared to produce evidence supporting your assertion.

Ah, you should be more honest with your parents. I hope things work out for you.

That sucks. I hope it didn't ruin your date. The fact that they didn't storm over to the table, or didn't begin to yell at you, suggests that they didn't take it so hard. It could have been a lot worse. Odds are, they probably already knew. At least subconsciously. Seeing you with a guy was just a wake up call.

You have every right to date whoever you want, and whether your parents accept it or not, there will always be people who don't accept certain things. But being gay does not have to be a right, it should be a way of life. This is coming from a straight person, but I have NOTHING wrong with people who are gay. Get over it. No one is making you be gay, noone is making you be straight so its what you choose. Accept it all. :D Hope everything worked out though.

So, you just go "I feel like being attracted to the opposite sex" like you say "I think I'll have fish for dinner"? Really?

@sven25 So you've post you're ignorant comment a few times I see. I have a problem with people like you that just seem to think that if people don't accept something they are bad people. There is a stigma with being gay in today's society. Tolerance is preached but you yourself should know that not everyone is treated equally. For the record, I am straight but have gay friends and relatives. I wouldn't treat them any differently than if they were straight. I do get the willies when a gay guy hits on me but that's my right. It's similar to chicks getting hit on by creepy guys. They don't like it and I don't like being hit on by gay men. Having said that, I love people that automatically go on the vein, "the parents are bad for not accepting their son/daughter because they are gay." Religion, viewpoints, opinions, feelings and others get in the way of "logic" and loving someone for who they are. It takes a bit of love/faith to accept that and may take some time. The reason I stated about teh son is that in his life he could tell his parents and get it out there but he is afraid to because of the stigma/feelings his parents would have against him. So it's equally his fault his parents found out the way they did. But I'm a little upset you jump on the ignorance train. I'd like to know why you seem to think I'm ignorant? As stated I have friends/family that are gay and I try my best to treat everyone equally. So if you somehow have a crystal ball that looks into my life, how about you just STFU and keep your ignorance to yourself. I have problems when minorities scream ignorance when in fact they are just as intolerant, ignorant, ignant as the people they are denouncing. So feel free to send me a chat because you sir are an idiot and I can tell since you just feel like copy and pasting your statements versus taking the time to actually write singular comments to people in these threads.
