Today, I let my estranged husband move back in with my son and me. Later, his pregnant and underage girlfriend knocked on my door, crying about how her mom kicked her out. I'm such a pushover, they're in my bed and I'm on the couch. FML

When the leaves fall, the laughter rises. Discover autumn stories as crisp as dried leaves!
Today, I moved back in with my parents in order to help them with the mortgage, so they don't lose the house that has been in our family for three generations. I also found out that I now have a curfew, and so does my husband and our 3 year old son. FML
Today, I moved my kids and myself into my parents' house. My soon to be ex-husband keeps calling me from different numbers, crying for me to take him back. The sorry bastard kissed his best friend instead of me at midnight on New Year's Day because I was attending to my son who was afraid of fireworks. FML
Today, my son got in an argument with my boyfriend, packed up his stuff, and moved in with his dad. Not five minutes later I saw my boyfriend doing his stupid happy dance. When angrily confronted, he admitted he orchestrated every argument for months until he got the result he wanted, my son gone. FML
Today, I moved into my new house. The previous occupants failed to tell me that they'd recently kicked out their crazy crackhead son, who seems to think they've paid me to pretend that they've moved out and that I'm the new owner. He wants back in. FML
Today, my scumbag son slapped his girlfriend in front of her family, and her dad picked him up and threw him off a second floor balcony. Good for her dad, he deserved it, but now he's laid up at my place and I have to wipe his ass and listen to him whine. FML
Today, my boyfriend informed me that the mother of his children, from whom he is not divorced yet, is moving back into his house because she broke up with her boyfriend and has nowhere to go. FML
Today, I came home to find my husband allowed several of his family members to move in without even asking me. His parents are in the spare room, his brother and wife are in my den and they expect me to make my daughter share her bed with two older cousins. I’m ready to take the kids and leave. FML
Today, I found out that after reuniting with an old boyfriend, getting close with his two year old son, and moving closer to him to properly be a part of their lives, he got back together with his ex-wife. FML
Today, my mom came to me, hysterically crying that her boyfriend had hit and choked her. I’d feel bad for her except he’s my ex who also beat me, yet when I turned to my mother for help she decided to take him in instead and get pregnant with his kid. What goes around comes around bitch! FML
Today, it's only been two months since my daughter has owned her home and now she wants to move back to my house because she lost her job and can’t afford the mortgage, plus she got pregnant off a one-night stand and needs my help with the baby. Bang goes my plans for a quiet retirement. FML

... his girlfriend is Underage And Pregnant? And you've Not called the cops on his ass for having sex with a minor? You wouldn't have to deal with him anymore once he's in jail for statutory rape.

He sounds pathetic OP. Kick them both out until he grows a pair. Best of luck.

I really hope someone at FML contacts this woman somehow and tells her she really needs to talk to the police. Admittly we don't know how underage this girl is but in the end she is still underage and pregnant to a man who is breaking the law by having sex with her. Now OP could herself get into shit for allowing a minor to sleep with this guy still. Seriously OP do yourself and your son a favour and contact the police immediately before you reach a point where you could be in almost as much trouble as your husband. Or at the very least kick them both out of your house. This is a situation that is not going to end well for anyone.

Geeze, I've called a few people a pushover in my lifetime... I need to retract that because not one of them are even close to this pushover of epic proportions! Sorry that you're going through this, OP... maybe give them another day and then ask them to leave... this isn't your problem to deal with and you have your child to care for.

Dont let her stay for any more time than you feel uncomfortable. Give her a kickout deadline and when it comes around, leave all her luggage outside.

What I can only assume was a rather distressed teenage girl showed up at OP's house, probably at night and needing a place to sleep. Giving them one night is not unreasonable. Telling them to find their own arrangements after that is what OP should be doing however.

kudos to you for doing the human thing even if it kills you to do it. Don't let them liner though.

Who's paying rent again? You're going to have to have a spine and set some boundaries. Or else you will be a doormat, and they will use your food and electricity and not pay a dime. Put your foot down!

You need to report him if she's a minor & he got her pregnant!! Who knows who else he might hurt.

Hi all! OP here. The good news is this was eight years ago, and I've really grown a spine since then. Here's a bit more background, since the 300 character limit is very, well, limiting. My (now ex) husband told me when our son was four months old that he couldn't handle being a husband and father, so he left. He also admitted to cheating on me since the beginning of our marriage. I was 19 and stupid, so I waited for him to "grow up" and be in his son's life. He didn't really show much of an interest until our son was a year old. Then he said that he had realized his mistakes and he wanted to be with me. I wasn't fully ready to forgive him, but I wanted to have a stable family unit for our son, so I did my best to work things out with my ex. His girlfriend was 16 (which while being under the age of consent in WI is also just a misdemeanor charge). I couldn't stand the girlfriend having to sleep on the streets, so I let her come inside. My ex then revealed his big plan of how he should be able to sleep with whatever girls he wants to have a gigantic family (a perverted stereotypical Mormon outlook - he wanted all of us to sleep in the same bed and be one big happy family). I couldn't do that, hence me sleeping on the couch. Sadly, I still wanted things to work out, so I let my ex and his girlfriend continue to stay. It wasn't until my landlord told me I could get evicted from having unauthorized guests that I told them they had to leave (I may have been stupid, but my son having a roof over his head was most important to me). My ex lost his temper at being told he had to leave (he went all drama queen claiming that he'd have to sleep outside - his family wasn't really happy with him either). The thing that made me realize what an idiot I was was when he told me if he couldn't have us (my son and I), he was going to kill us and himself. That was it. I filed for a restraining order (sadly it was denied for being a "petty teenage argument" according to the judge) and for divorce. I'm now happily remarried to an amazing guy who loves me and helped me see I am a worthy human being. My husband also adopted my son, so I never have to deal with my ex again (and my ex was happy for no more child support - not that he paid it).

I take my comment back ( I was out of time to edit when I read your follow up) you did the right thing putting your child as first priority♡♡ hope you and your family the best.

I'm glad to hear that everything worked out OP. I can understand your desire to try and work things out and for not wanting this girl to have to sleep on the streets. Seems like your ex was manipulative, both of you and this other girl. All the best to you and your husband in the future.

I'm glad you found someone worthy of you OP, but I can't help but worry how your son will turn out from living with your crazy perverted ex husband...

(sorry I misread the last part as your son was with your ex) *I'm glad your son now has a decent father figure in his life
ishyboo 14
My son doesn't remember his biological father at all (beyond telling people that he's lucky that he has two dads). I refuse to tell my son anything bad about his sperm donor, so he doesn't know much beyond "We didn't love each other, so we divorced. He still loves you, but lives far away." (He's actually fathered five more children and gotten worse with the women/girls he sleeps with - he sent his last baby mama to the hospital he beat her so badly.) My ex hardly ever showed up for his visitation with my son (like once or twice every six months), so my son never developed a relationship with his biological father. The last time we saw my ex, my son was four.

That really doesn't matter. Seems that your son has a real dad now who loves and cares for him and in sure in years to come that is who he will think of when telling people about his father.

It happened 8 years ago and you're posting about it now, why??

My very first thought after reading this was that you're setting a terrible example for your son. You may be teaching him that it is okay for women to be treated this way. I'm assuming your husband is a grown adult, so you need to kick them both out. You're not doing anyone any favors by letting them stay, especially not yourself.
