Today, my dad sat me and my sister down and give us a "talk". More like an angry irrational rant. He forbade us from being gay, marrying a Muslim or a black person, demanded kids from both of us, and threatened to disown us if we didn't. Where's my free will? FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my parents threatened to kick me out of the house if I didn't agree to convert to their new brand of Christianity. This is a day after they ranted at me about how I should speak my mind more and not let myself be controlled by other people. FML
Today, my father once again sat me and my boyfriend of a year down to have another "talk." These "talks" are always something negative against our relationship, and how it’s not up to his standards. We’ve explained numerous times why he’s wrong. My father is about to make me single. FML
Today, my dad sat me down for a talk. After the talk, he wasn't my dad anymore. FML
Today, my father lectured me on the “sanctity of marriage” while his third wife bawled in the corner. I'm just gay, not a raging cunt. FML
Today, my husband and I recently decided not to have kids, because neither of us like children. Learning this, my dad wrote me out of his will and my mother swore on the Bible in church that she’s never going to speak to me again until I obey God's word and start multiplying. FML
Today, my dad made me and my boyfriend break up. Not because he was a bad influence, but because I was. FML
Today, I had to endure my father going on a sexist rant about how women shouldn't be allowed to go to university because it's "unrealistic" since "all women" become stay-at-home mums. This is the same man who threatened to kick me out if I dropped out of uni. FML
Today, I was talking to my dad about how I don’t think I love my fiancé anymore. He sat me down and gave me a severe talking to that amounted to, “We’re a respectable religious family, he’ll be a good husband, you’ll make babies and grow old together. You don’t need to love him to do that.“ FML
Today, my son got angry when he came out as gay and my husband and I told him that we loved him no matter what. Turned out he wanted us to reject him so he could have a sob story and make people feel sorry for him. FML
Today, I was sitting in my room when my dad walked in to talk. He said I'm not the son he'd hoped for, and that he'd been let down as a father. He said I should change the way I am so that he could love me more. It was the longest conversation I've had with my dad in years. FML

I like how your sensorship doesn't sensor anything.

Wrong homophone, buddy. I believe you meant censor.
ThrottleJockey 36
Homophone? I'm not afraid of gays!

How is this getting thumbed up? Homophobe and homophone are two separate things!

Father: "What is this word 'free will'? I've never heard it before"

What are you, a charity case? Pay for your goddamn will like everyone else.

free will is two words

Father: Freewill? What is that? A new fangled pokemon?

I bet he voted for Donald Trump.

I hope Hilary gets it so we can find out about the aliens
BuckNekkid 22
did i miss the election?
PrincessZelda_HR 22
It's either accidentally past tense or the primaries that I'm not sure have happened yet because I can't vote in them, even though I can vote in the general election (that's stupid)
Starshrek 11
I know I will
xmann277 13
Actually if you can vote in the general, you can vote in the primary. You can get your voting license early if you can prove you can vote in the general
tibtak_fml 10
Maybe Donal Trump is actually the dad
ohSNAPyall 27
You do have to register pretty much now, though. So get on that.

1) Ignore him, he's an idiot, be with the one with whom you fall in love. 2) How can anyone have voted for Trump when we haven't even had the primary election yet?

**** trump's bitch ass.

Dad of the Year award goes to OP's dad.
koganti 18

hellnosucka 27

Um are you 9? Talk about an immature response..but I agree #5. Live life in a way that'll make you happy. Your happiness is more important.
Kurby14 21
sorry but your father is a dick. guess you need to pick: your happiness or his control over you. sorry OP
gamermonster 34
OP's dad is trying to compensate for what he doesn't have
savagetitan 13
Well at least they have a father in their life that seems to care.
VanillaButterfly 14
#82 What part of this shows that he cares?
thatsjustgreat1 16
he wants OP to have a good life whether or not what he said is right, it shows more care than just leaving him/her to do anything he/she pleases
DoomSkuller 28
Being that controlling is not caring, it's selfish. A good parent should be supportive and understanding above all else.
Comrox 19
Wow, sounds like something set him off. There has to be more to this story... Can we get a follow up OP?
flare0 5
Let him disown you.. who would want a father who doesn't respect their choice anyways? I don't know how close you are with him, but if you're told something like this I'd assume not very.
BloodyGlass 10
So I guess both you and your sister are going to be disowned in the future, sounds like a fair trade to get away from that psycho. Don't worry, my dad threw me out of his house over a cup of spilled milk, good riddence.
Jatok 17
Exactly. Move out and get a job. Then you can be gay and marry a black Muslim!
kirasant 19
Even if he isn't gay, he should bring home a black guy once he's out of the house. Instant end to a foul relationship. Good luck, OP. Remember, just cus you're related to someone, doesn't mean you have to stay around them.

I hope both of you don't depend to much on him so you won't have to follow those "rules".
