Today, I got into an argument with my mom over her sexist, emotionally-abusive boyfriend. I told her that either he goes or I go. She called me a disrespectful bastard for not respecting my "new father." I'm now sitting outside a McDonald's with my suitcase, leeching their WiFi. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my dad and I got into an argument, and he ended up calling me a son of a bitch. My mom heard and started arguing with him over him calling her a bitch. Three hours later, I'm now staying at my gran's house with my mom and hoping her threats of a divorce weren't for real. FML
Today, I overheard my mom’s boyfriend viciously berating and verbally abusing her. I got in his face and started yelling that he can’t talk to her that way. He stormed out and we haven’t heard from him since. Now my mom is pissed and wants to kick me out for “ruining” her relationship. Sorry I guess. FML
Today, I got into an argument with my mother, when she snapped and called me a son of a bitch. I said that made no sense, because I'm a girl, and it'd only really confirm that she's a bitch. She then grounded me for insulting her. FML
Today, I got into an argument with my dad in his hotel room. I lost my temper and stormed out onto the balcony for some fresh air, at which point he decided to lock the door behind me, trapping me there for half an hour while he watched TV. FML
Today, my mother stormed into my room shouting about how I never go anywhere and then tells me to go out "NOW" and do something. As she is pushing me out the door, her boyfriend walks in. FML
Today, I finally had it out with my abusive father. I spent almost an hour detailing about how he constantly humiliates me in public, treats me like slime, and hits me at random when he's in a bad mood. His response was, "Quit being such a wimp" because I'm "not female." Mom took his side. I'm 16 and can't move out. FML
Today, after I got into an argument with mom's boyfriend, telling him to piss off because no one wanted him, and he did so, saying he was done putting in wasted effort, now he's gone I realise how much he did for us, or that his share of the bills paid the rent. We may lose our house because of me. FML
Today, my mother kicked me out of the house because her new boyfriend needs my room. Evidently he also needs my credit card, passport, and wallet too, because she kept all three, while tossing everything else out on the lawn. FML
Today, I got into a fight with my mom, and stormed out of the house. I walked two blocks before realizing that I have no place to go, and no friends to vent to. FML
Today, my mom kicked me out of the house because I missed my curfew and overslept at my boyfriend’s house. She said she’d let me back in on one condition: that I was still a virgin. My boyfriend’s parents won’t let me live with him. I’m currently staying in the Walmart restroom. FML

well I hate to say this, but maybe it is best you got out. If she won't listen, its best you get out of a potentially bad situation.

Your mom seriously needs a bitch slap to the face. I hope you can find a place to stay.

Lord knows she'll be getting a whole lot more from her new beau.

If she puts up with abuse, she's not in a position to step out -- even if you offer an ultimatum. You have good intentions, but your lack of understanding just cut her out of your life, at least for the time being. You have to let her make her own decision. You can present the options and let her choose. Let her know that you don't support her decision but that you love her. Don't hang around whenever he's there.

Ive dealt with the same shit for 10 years. If she chooses him over you now she always will. Best advice cut all ties and move on.

I would not know but isn't it hard to get out of an emotionally destructive relationship, might take your mother some time and you need to be there for her even if she is being a bitch.

I'm sorry OP. I hope your mother learns from her mistake and dumps that bastard. No one should have to live with an abusive partner. She most likely is in denial of what is happening to her. At least you tried, that is more then most people can say.

You probably made the right choice. If she cares about you, she'll eventually try to amend the situation, and if she doesn't, well, you don't need that type of person in your life. So just kinda wait it out for a bit. Or burn the house down. Whichever.
