Today, I snuck out of my house in the middle of the night. I ran into my dad carrying wine into another house. I didn't assume he was cheating until he saw me and said, "I won't tell if you don't tell, please don't tell your mother." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I got drunk at a party. I didn't want my parents to know, so I took out my phone, called my parents, and asked them not to tell them I'm drunk. FML
Today, my parents heard me leaving my room at 2 am, and freaked out because they thought I was sneaking out. I was too embarrassed to tell them that I was getting food instead of having a social life. FML
Today, my boyfriend sneaked into my room, not knowing I wasn't home. It would have been great, except my dad went in my room to put laundry away. FML
Today, I told my dad I couldn't make the trip to see him this weekend because I had to work. I surprised him by driving ten hours, and while he was out, I let myself in with my key and hid behind the couch for when he came in. He walked in. I jumped out. I then had to call 911. FML
Today, I thought I had gotten away with throwing a party while my folks were gone the night before. They came home and I was as sweet as possible. I could tell they were not buying it, but I thought I was in the clear. Later, they told me I had drunk-dialled them and spilled the beans. FML
Today, I tried to sneakily leave my boyfriend's house at 3 a.m. without his parents knowing. I had a flat tire. FML
Today, I was trying to sneak home from a party. Instead, I head-butted a glass door and woke my mother up. FML
Today, I found out my son has been sneaking out of his room at night to see his girlfriend. He's a fully-grown 23-year-old man with a job and his own car. He doesn't need to sneak out. What an idiot. FML
Today, I received a very expensive bottle of wine for Christmas. My alcoholic mother snuck into my house while I was out and drank the whole bottle. FML
Today, I got up at 2 AM to grab a snack. I quietly crept down the stairs, only to find my dad, mom, and a couple of their friends having a secret poker game. Now they think I have a sleepwalking problem. FML

On the other hand, continuing with cheating even when your child knows is a pretty horrible thing to do so... I see where you're coming from.

YOUR LIFE IS ****** BITCH!!! Haha, that's what you get for sneaking out, bet you'll never do that again..Ehh,you probably will...Anyways, you should DEF tell your mother cuz cheating on your spouse is waay worse than a young teenager sneaking out...She'll be pissed at you yes, but she'll get over it a lot quicker than she'll get over your dad cheating on her...that is if she gets over it at alll....Either way, you're damned if you do and damned if you don't, but u def should tell her.

Come on you guys, stop trying to cause trouble. Don't tell her. Most guys cheat on their wives; it's fairly normal; what she doesn't know won't hurt her. Besides, having a secret to keep from mom will make you and your father closer. Forget about blackmail, but simply realize he'll be more likely to help you out if you need alibis in the future, or in any situation where you need help against your tyrannical mother. She must by tyrannical, if you are reduced to sneaking out at night.

#36, when I was fifteen, I was in a complicated situation with my boyfriend, and I cheated on him, and I told him. Instead of leaving me like he should have, he decided to make it work with me. I'm eighteen, we're still together and still in love. Just because he cheated doesn't mean divorce. Contrary to popular belief, he could still love her. They still have a chance, but if she finds out from someone else other than him, she'll probably leave him.

#45 - WTF? Cheating is normal? A lot of people commit crime, but does that mean it's right? In the same way, a lot of guys cheat on their wives. Does that mean it's right? No. Then again, I can't tell if your comment is serious or not. @OP, tell your mother. Like others said, she can forgive you for sneaking out at night. Your father is another story.
