Today, during dinner, my mum asked why I've been so upset recently, so I just admitted it was because my girlfriend had cheated on me. At some point during my venting, I asked why this stuff always seems to happen to me. My dad looked up from his plate and said, "Probably karma." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my mom asked me if I was crying because my boyfriend cheated on me with my best friend. That wasn't why I was crying. My mom knows things before I do. FML
Today, I was feeling down following a recent breakup. My dad tried to comfort me by patting me on the back and saying everyone goes through ups and downs, "Like when I found out your mum and I were having a boy." I'm their only son. FML
Today, barely 2 hours into a 5 hour car ride home, my mom accidentally let slip that she's been cheating on my dad. I had to sit with the bitch in a diner for ages while my dad bawled his eyes out alone in the car. FML
Today, my girlfriend told me she wanted get to know my mom, so they went off and had a chat. After an hour, I noticed my girlfriend was gone and my mom was waiting for me. Apparently I've been dumped through my mother. FML
Today, my girlfriend actually yelled, "Why are you making this all about YOU?!" after I confronted her over cheating on me. FML
Today, I was confiding in my dad over the phone, after I caught my girlfriend cheating on me. After I hung up and went online, I noticed he'd been live-blogging the whole call on Facebook and commenting that he was considering suicide to escape the boredom. FML
Today, my mom and dad got into a fight, during which my dad said to my mom that her health conditions were of her own doing. Because of that, I got pissed and had a fight with my dad, taking my mom's side. Turns out, my mom took his side and ratted me out. FML
Today, I was in my bedroom with my boyfriend and we were kissing. My mom then came into my room and started shouting at my boyfriend for cheating on her. FML
Today, I came home in tears after my boyfriend admitted to cheating on me. My dad told me to sit down and tell him everything. He's pretty eccentric, so I wasn't fazed when he put on a pair of sunglasses. When I stopped talking, I noticed his mouth was slightly agape and he was snoring. FML
Today, I learned my girlfriend was cheating on me. After giving her a second chance and meeting her parents for the first time, her father said at the dinner table, "I like the other guy better." FML

He could have been a little more supportive. Unless, of course, the dad knows more to what is going on in this situation.

Sometimes I feel like I'm the only person that doesn't believe in that karma BS!

I don't believe in karma either.. I prefer to cast blame for all the bad shit that happens on Murphy and his law :-)

Yeah, don't worry Enslaved, you are definitely not the only one. I doubt that the people who say things like "karma is a bitch" actually believe it either.

Did you ever hear words saying father knows best! Well maybe he really knows how you really are and how you treat women . You got a smart father there , maybe he can give you perfect advices about the women in your life!

So... Does this mean you have cheated on past girlfriends? Or does your dad just think you have?
Levvy 22
No. Karma does not mean "the exact same thing happening to you that you did to someone else". In its more colloquial (as opposed to traditional spiritual) sense, it simply indicates things happening to someone in accordance with the overall good/bad quality of their deeds.

Your Dad didn't sound like he cared or was listening to what you had to say. That's sad. :( karma has nothing to do with this, your ex-gf is a cheating ****. Plain and simple. Your dad is stupid.

...well if he's cheated on someone in the past (possibly even current relationship) then you could say that's karma getting back at him.

Throw your plate of food at him and when he asks why, just say "it was karma".

no don't listen to them! you just haven't met the right girl yet who deserves your love. anyone who cheats on you doesn't deserve you anyways :)

Normally i would wonder if there is anything you aren't mentioning...but if fml has taught me anything it is that parents can be jerks too...for no reason.

It hasn't taught you grammar, has it?

Honestly I can't decide how I should vote on this one. Sure my first thought is to just say your life sucks, but the more I think about it I can't help but think the father said that for a reason, as in because she's cheated on someone herself and he was saying now she's getting the same thing done to her. I mean that would fit with the idea of karma by definition.

So you're saying you're considering voting YDI because you can IMAGINE there are POTENTIAL things the OP MIGHT have done to deserve it but just aren't quite sure what they are? I assume you go hitting YDI on every single entry.
