Today, my parents told me that from now on I have to share a room with my 9-year-old sister. She already called top bunk. I'm 20. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my mom won't let me have the extra hotel room she booked all to myself, even though it's just me, her, and my sister. Basically I can share a room with her or with my sister, but I can't be alone. I'm 23. FML
Today, I realized that my 14 year-old runs my home. She has her own room, while her 11 year-old sister and I (her mother) share a room. I literally have to get her permission to go anywhere as well. FML
Today, I was visiting my in-laws and sharing a room with my husband's 17-year-old sister. Later that night she and her brother of 24 years started fist-fighting over an air mattress and I had to pull them off each other. The brother later berated me with, "You can't handle any pressure!" FML
Today, I met my older sister's cute male roommate. Everything was going smoothly until he asked if I was her mother. I’m only 20. FML
Today, my family was discussing the new rules of the house we are moving into. They told my sister she couldn't have any boys in her room. They didn't tell me I couldn't have any girls in my room. Even my parents think I can't get a girlfriend. FML
Today, I found out my mom can't wait until I turn 18, so she can kick me out and turn my room into a huge closet for all her clothes. FML
Today, I ended up sleeping on the dirty floor because my sister didn't want to share a king size bed with me. She got up to get a drink and stepped on my face. FML
Today, I found out my 11 year-old's best friend, who is two months older than her, is also her sister. FML
Today, I let my little sister sleep in my room because she had a nightmare. She is currently snoring like an overweight 40 year-old man with a cold. FML
Today, my parents are calling me a spoilt brat and threatening to disown me if I don't let my sister, her six kids, and freshly out of jail boyfriend move into the house I spent 10 years working my ass off to buy without having a mortgage. Sis said I can sleep on the lounge as long as I pay rent. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Your parents told you it's time to move out even though they didn't say it directly.

Everyone is talking about how they should move out, but it's not so easy these days. Don't forget that minimum wage still sucks and even with 2-3 it can be hard to support yourself. Don't forget about health insurance. The odds of you getting a job where you work enough to get it is not guaranteed. There's also the probability that at 20 they're doing some schooling or going to soon. Makes it harder. While all of this is possible, it's incredibly difficult. Especially for someone so young and green(not energy).

While it sucks. You do have the option to move out

So you're old enough to get an entire apartment to yourself. You should do that.

I think your parents may be trying to make home life uncomfortable enough to make you want to move.

Since when does "calling" count when one of the contestants is an adult. Insist on a democracy where the majority of registered voters decide who gets what bunk. Personally, the top bunk sucks, so you should be glad the kid is stupid enough to take it. No matter what, your dating life is over.

I lived with my parents longer than the OP has and agree with you it is harder than one realizes in this day and age.

Agreed. I couldn't afford to move out until I was 24. That's because I moved to country where rent is much more affordable.

when I was your age, I'd owned a house for two years.
core01 30
for two whole years?!?
thehaystackerine 20
I bought it less than 6 months after I turned 18
riley873 21

Could be worse... you could be a 20y/o on the top bunk XD

Do you have a brother who can't make his own sandwhiches?

They are trying to get you to move. Heck I prefer the bottom bunk anyway.
