Today, I found my concert tickets that I've been trying to find for the last 2 weeks in my mom's closet. When I asked why she had them, she said she felt the concert was inappropriate for me so she hid them. I'm 20. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my son surprised me on my birthday with tickets to a concert I really wanted to see. I was excited, especially since I planned to buy them but couldn't due to the fact it was too expensive. I was ecstatic, until I found out he'd stolen my credit card to buy them. FML
Today, my boyfriend bought me Kings of Leon tickets for my birthday. Since he thought I was irresponsible, he gave the tickets to his mum so I wouldn't lose them. The show is today, and we can't find the tickets. FML
Today, I found out that my mom goes through my garbage. I'm 25 and don't live with her. FML
Today, I told my mom about the $50 I'd hidden in case of an emergency, and how I couldn't find it. She said she'd borrowed it last week. FML
Today, I left a concert with my drunk mother who had spilled beer all over my shirt. I drove her home and she slept it off. Later, my mom "found" my shirt in the laundry and grounded me for drinking behind her back. She won't believe me that it was her. FML
Today, I found out my mom can't wait until I turn 18, so she can kick me out and turn my room into a huge closet for all her clothes. FML
Today, I got on a two hour train ride to go to a concert. I had been so caught up in handling the train tickets that halfway to the concert, I realized I had left the concert tickets on my dresser. FML
Today, I gave my ex-girlfriend two concert tickets to show her I still care about her and want to win her back. She sold them. FML
Today, my dad was given 2 VIP tickets to see my favourite band in concert next week. You can now find them on eBay. FML
Today, I was helping my mom look for some money she'd misplaced. At my wit's end, I flipped through her diary, in case she'd hidden it between the pages as she has before. Didn't find the money, but I did find out she might well be cheating on my dad. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

i think that staying home in your early 20's and using your money to get a higher education is a far better choice than going straight from high school to a crappy low-paying full-time job just so you can live on your own. just saying. because let's be serious, nobody has money for both unless they're receiving some sort of financial help from their parents. not in this economy.

115: did you think that way when you lived in your parents' house? I suppose, when it comes down to it, they have the right to keep a younger kid away from a concert (though at 20 it becomes iffy.) Even in that case, though, hiding the tickets without telling why is a cowardly, dishonest way to do it and avoid blame. If you're going to set rules for your kids, the least you can do is tell them the rules and deal with their response.

#116: I have to say that #115 is right. If he's going to live with his mom, he should have to follow her rules.

relax. the OP is only 20. he/she could be living at home instead of paying a shitload for dorms or apartments by college, or could just be visiting from college. or just trying to make a little money so that when he/she does move out, they can afford it. And especially with the economy the way it is, moving out wouldn't be the best idea. If they around 25, you can start criticizing.

It dosen't matter whether you're 16 or 60, this is THEFT! In this case, it's probably possible to pursue legal options, like suing and pressing charges for larceny. I'm tired of parents who refuse to accept their children as people with rights, and those who will let them do so.
