Today, I found out my parents' New Year's resolution is to get me to move out. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I overheard my parents planning on how to get me to move out of the house. It's my house. They only came to visit and forgot to leave. FML
Today, I found out that my over-controlling parents would be moving in next door. I'm almost 23, and moved 5,365 km away to get away from them. FML
Today, I found out that the day I moved out of my parents' house, they invited my whole family over and had a party to celebrate the fact that I was gone. FML
Today, after telling my parents just exactly what I thought of them and that I was moving out, the person I was supposed to move in with called to say they'd decided they would rather live alone. FML
Today, my parents found out that I separately convinced them not to get back together, and now they're not speaking to me. FML
Today, I moved out of my parents' house and started living alone. All of a sudden, my parents started requiring me to text or call them every 5 minutes to tell them where I am and what I'm doing, from 6am to 12am every day. If I don't, they will go looking for me, and force me to move back in with them. FML
Today, I found out my parents only had me in an attempt to fix their relationship. It didn't work. FML
Today, marks the third time this month my parents came to visit. I moved 5 hours away to get away from them. 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, I finally got the nerve to tell my parents that I'm no longer going to pay them a flat percent of my salary, but only what they need to cover my expenses. Their response: "Better find a place of your own then, you freeloading bastard." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Whether or not this is an FML kind of depends on your age.

Then do it!!! Seriously, it's ridiculous how many adults are still living off of their parents. I can't understand it. And your parents have been trying to get you to move out multiple times and you still haven't?! Instead you're bitching about it on the internet...Time to grow up guys!!

My dad kicked my brother out at 18, because he was making everybody's lives miserable: stealing money, jewelrey from my parents and myself, pawning their stuff to buy drugs...etc He dropped out of college. depends why they are making you leave. If you are a good kid and still need their help while you go to school, yeah that sucks.

It's good for old people to have goals in life. Many of them are just waiting for the sweet release of death. It's too bad for you that they want to be free from the parasite that has been sucking them dry.

This actually plays to your advantage, OP. If you have a job, and your 'rents are desperate enuff to pay for the deposit for an apartment - you can afford that, and you can always visit them and ransack the pantry and use the W/D. Plus, you can do whatever the hell you want in your own damn place!

You are absolutely pathetic. OP is obviously old enough to move out, but instead is refusing, and you're advising them to take MORE advantage and make them pay for an apartment, and then continue to eat THEIR food, use THEIR laundry room...grow the **** up and start to take some responsibility!!!!!!
