Today, I got a call from my parents' divorce lawyer. When I answered the phone, she thought I was my mother and told me the details about my parent's divorce. I'm a 13-year-old boy who sounds like a woman and just learned that my parents are separating. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my boyfriend proposed. I was about to call my parents and tell them we're getting married, but they called me first to announce they're getting a divorce. FML
Today, I got a phone call from my mother asking me if I was okay. Confused, I asked her what she meant. She then told me that my boyfriend had broken up with me, and she just wanted to make sure I was handling it alright. I had to find out my relationship was over from my mom. FML
Today, I overheard my parents arguing over who had to tell me that I'm adopted. FML
Today, a telemarketer called and asked if they could speak to my "Mommy or Daddy." I'm 25 years old. FML
Today, I learned that my parents are planning to divorce. My dad said, "I'll take Rachel." Rachel isn't even his daughter; I am. Rachel is my mom's daughter with her first husband. FML
Today, I found out that my mom and dad got a divorce. They didn't tell me, they just changed their relationship status on Facebook. FML
Today, I overheard my parents discussing their divorce. Apparently, what they mostly disagree over is that neither of them want custody of me and are considering delaying their divorce until I’m 18, because at least then legally I’m not either of their problem to deal with. FML
Today, I got a call from "No Caller ID", which usually only shows up when someone calls from my house phone. Thinking it was my kids, I answered imitating a cartoon voice. It wasn't my kids. It was the district attorney's office calling about the job I applied for. FML
Today, my father called me for the first time in two weeks since I moved away. Excited, I answered the phone. It was a mistake. He thought he'd called my sister. FML
Today, I received a letter from the state saying my 14-year-old daughter is now legally recognized as a male. I have no idea what happened. FML

Congratulations, you're a thirteen year old boy on the internet and you're using correct grammar. Your life isn't ******; you still have a future.

I sound a lot younger when I am on the phone my father's stupid financial advisor would always say "Hi sweetie is daddy there can you get him for me, go get daddy" in a really sooky and whiny voice. I am sorry about your parents, it must have been really awful finding out like that, maybe you could anwer the phone by saying "Hello this is (your name) speaking who do you wish to speak to ?" I know it is very formal but it will help you by not being mistaken for your Mother.

FYL indeed. Sorry about the divorce, as long as your parents are reasonable it should be tolerable. Confusing your voice isn't so bad though, voices get changed over the phone and a lot of people think I'm my dad.

Lol within a year I went from being mistaken for my mom to being mistaken for my dad. I was 12 then though. To all the people saying teens can't spell or use grammar, stfu, not all teens are idiots, just a small few that give others a bad reputation. OP, that sucks, but the majority of my friends have divorced parents, and they've seemed to handle it pretty well, so good luck to you.

Oh yes, we're so innocent. I already lost hope for society about a year or two ago; just because we're young doesn't mean we're not aware of the world.
