Today, I was helping my mom pack for our family vacation. We were both talking about how excited we were, when she turned to me and said, "Would you be offended if I asked you not to come? It's just… I want to have fun." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was asking my husband to help me finalize plans for our upcoming vacation. He, however, would rather pout and sulk because I don’t want him to bring his mom along. She’s been with us on our last few trips and it’s hard to get any alone time. I’m considering just going alone at this point. FML
Today, my mother told me that I could take a friend on vacation with us. Then she added that because I have no friends, my brother can bring his girlfriend instead. FML
Today, my mom told me my aunt was coming over. I told her I might have to work, and would be sad to miss her. My mom said, "Or, you know, if you're not there, it might be nice." FML
Today, my parents asked me if I was sure I didn't want to join them on a family trip tomorrow with my sister. I was never invited, and unlike the rest of the family, I have a full-time job where I can't just take days off with no warning. This is how they announce most "family trips" to me. FML
Today, while planning for our trip next spring, my friend told me that she's decided that her mom is coming with us. It’s non-negotiable. FML
Today, my mom booked a family trip to Sweden. This would be great, if she hadn't asked me to tell our former German exchange student that we were coming to visit her in Germany. She was thrilled. Now I have to be the one to let her down. FML
Today, my sister and I were planning a trip to get away from things and visit some faraway friends. My dad then decided to insert himself into our plans. He got mad when we said no, and couldn't understand why we wanted to go by ourselves. FML
Today, I asked my fiancee to drive me to the airport for a business trip in a few days. She ranted angrily that she already had plans, so I asked my mom to take me instead. Now she's pissed and saying, "Why don't you just go marry your mommy, since she does everything for you?" FML
Today, my mom asked if she could use my red dress for her two-week trip to the Caribbean. I said no, because I was going to a party and I wanted to wear it. She called me a selfish, greedy bitch who would stay single forever. I paid for her plane ticket, her hotel fees, and her cruise ship fee. FML
Today, my mother was talking about a holiday she went on this time last year. She turned to me to say, "You would've loved it, it's a shame you couldn't come". I was there. It was just the two of us on holiday together. FML

Before you call other people losers, learn to spell it. FYL OP. But I guess your mom meant like, she want to drink and let loose. Not having to behave responsible! :) My two cents.

i'm with 29, i mean, kids= responsibility. she didn't want to have to have that when she was having fun. so it's probably nothing personal
the_stereotype 0
btw, where are all of the people who usually comment "AT LEAST YOUR PARENTS SPEND TIME WITH YOU". where are they saying that to the OP's mother? AT LEAST YOUR KID ACTUALLY WANTS TO HANG OUT WITH YOU

I agree 32. If my mom did that, I'd be pissed and would go either way. Children may be dicks with their relationships with parents, but when PARENTS are dicks with their children, that just proves that those jackholes don't even deserve to be called parents. Too bad OP couldn't choose a better mom and was forced to be born to a bitch.

WHAT THE ****? YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THEM, WOULD YOU RATHER THEM JUST LEAVE YOU ALL ALONE AND GO OFF WITH OUT THEM? NOT ONLY DOES THAT DESTROY THE KIDS LIFE, IT MAKES YOU A ******* HORRIBLE PARENT! IF YOU DIDN'T WANT THE KID, YOU SHOULDN'T OF HAD SEX! **** YOU ASSHOLE. Ugh! That's really pathetic.. Oh I wanna have fun so I'm gonna leave my kid behind.. When my mom tried to go somewhere without me she couldn't, she came back and got me and brought me with her.. She actually cared about me.. Ugh, leave your kids behind? You may as well shoot them in the head and put the gun in your neighbors trash can.. That's not cool.. Not cool at all.

Perhaps OP is just a real brat, and her mother deserves a break from the moodiness, sarcasm, and rudeness. Just a thought...or maybe her mother really is self-centered.

The OP's mother is like in her fifties. Her meaning of fun is probably doing boring shit and telling old family stories, anyway.
The_Cait 0
Yeah...because people in their 50's are all *SO* old and boring! I wonder if you'll feel the same way in 35+ years....
The_Cait 0
Also, how do you figure that her mother is in her 50's?
Moemoemoe_fml 0
More like she probably wants to go wild and have sex randomly and all.... but with her daughter around she can hardly do that without looking bad, so she pulls crap like that. People in all those other comments saying it's the OP's fault that her mom is a bitch are freaking morons.

#7 - What brings you to the conclusion that her mom is in her fifties? Chances are, OP is a teenager. I'm 17 and my mom is just 39. My grandma is 60, and my great-grandmother is 78. Some families breed a little early. :P
