Today, I Googled my father, who I haven't seen in 3 years. The first website link was his obituary. When I confronted my mom about it, she said, "Oh, didn't I tell you?" and walked off. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I went to visit my parents after 4 years of not seeing them. They'd moved without telling me. FML
Today, I found my dad on a dating website looking for younger girls. My mother and father are "happily" married, well according to her Facebook profile. FML
Today, my mom talked me into going to a funeral since my dad wouldn't go. It was for one of her classmates. When it was our time to view the casket, we paused in front of it for a second before my mom leans over to me and says, "What if I told you that was really your dad?" FML
Today, I looked at my father's Facebook for the first time in a month to see a status saying, "Making wedding plans!" Really? When was he planning on telling his own daughter? FML
Today, I went through my 15 year old daughter's internet history. On google she searched 'Excuses to get away from your dad' and 5 other variations of the same thing. We were supposed to be having a father daughter day tomorrow. FML
Today, I found an obituary clipping on my kitchen table. It was for my grandpa. No one told me he died. FML
Today, I found out my parents have a list of everything I have ever Googled. FML
Today, I Googled myself. I found my mugshot and a blog my mom had written about how much of a problem child I am. FML
Today, I found out that my mom and dad got a divorce. They didn't tell me, they just changed their relationship status on Facebook. FML
Today, I saw my dad for the first time in almost five years, at his funeral. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

awe i'm sorry about your dad dying. ask your mom why the heck she didn't tell you. i dont' know my biological father, i get a letter every now and then from my step mom. but i would still want to know if he had passed. i'm sorry she didn't have enough respect for you to tell you :(

they obviously loved their dad as the title says 'miss you dad'. thats reaaally mean of your mum and i agree that you should empty her bank or get your own back somehow. and to the pricks saying she wont be much different without him stfu cos regardless he was still her dad

and people saying she might not have heard her mum tell her? pffffft if her mum told her then surely shed be expecting a reaction or ask if she was ok? so im sure she have realised she wasnt listening if that had been the case

So? I don't have a dad and if he dies, I wouldn't give a shit, just like how he wouldn't give a shit if I died. Do u think ur dad would have cared if u keeled over and died right now? No, he wouldn't, because he doesn't know u exist. I can't believe you would walk up to ur mother with such news then call this an FML. It makes kids like me--kids without a father--look bad and ungrateful. Seriously.

Wow, this is by far the stupidest comment I've read on here. Different people have different relationships with their parents, so it doesn't mean every kid out there with or without a dad has a bad relationship with them. Clearly, OP misses her dad very much.

wow, I feel bad for you cuz that really blows, but you should also be ashamed of yourself for not caring enough to find out where he is or try to get in touch with him

I hate all stupid people on here, the dad is probably in the army or something and died but the mom didn't tell her

I logged in just to call you an idiot because frankly you are. All posts are required to start with "Today," and end with "FML" if you haven't noticed it yet. This could be from years ago for all we know.
