Today, I found out my parents' New Year's resolution is to get me to move out. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

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

It's hard to tell whether to say FML or YDI without knowing the OP's age...

Sounds like you should have moved out years ago. Quit mooching off your parents. YDI.

They are your family. I always thought family stuck together. It seems most people think being lazy is some sort of crime, worthy of eternity in hell or something ridiculous like that. I don't know why your parents want you gone, but I truly am sorry and hope you are able to survive.

I take it you view your laziness as a virtue? If you contributed to the household they'd stop trying to chase you out.

Being lazy should be a crime, but it's becoming more acceptable. They probably just want OP to start acting like the adult OP claims to be. Instead of continuing to raise/pay for them. Doesn't mean they don't love OP. OP should be able to take some responsibility for their OWN life!!

Unless you're going to college full time, YDI! Stop being a deadbeat and sponging off your parents.
