Today, I got a missed call from my dad, who hasn't talked to me in months and has vowed not to have anything to do with me. I called him back excitedly and apologized for missing his call, and we had a 20-second conversation about how his phone accidentally dialed my number. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my father called me for the first time in two weeks since I moved away. Excited, I answered the phone. It was a mistake. He thought he'd called my sister. FML
Today, I called my dad, because I haven't spoken to him in a while, and I wanted to invite him to my graduation in May. When he picked up, I said, "Hey, how have you been, dad?" He scoffed, "Wrong number" and hung up the phone. FML
Today, my estranged dad drunk-dialed me at 4 a.m. to apologize, and to make amends. After crying and forgiving, we hung up. Minutes later, he called back to retract everything he said after remembering how I was rude to him at a party 3 years ago. FML
Today, my phone rang for the first time in four days. It was my mom. She dialed the wrong number. FML
Today, my dad got a new phone and put me on speed dial. I have received several voice mails from him accidentally dialed. They are from him riding the train, in a meeting, having lunch, and, most recently, him taking a monstrous dump. FML
Today, on the train, I got excited when I suddenly noticed I had a missed call and voicemail from a boy I liked. With a grin on my face, I told my friend. My dad overheard and said, "Oh sweetie, he probably had the wrong number." The voicemail was blank. I texted him. The call was indeed an accident. FML
Today, I was involved in an intense argument with my dad. Just as I yelled, "You haven't done one thing for me", my phone rang. The same phone that, as of today, my dad no longer pays the bill for. FML
Today, my oldest son answered my phone call much to my surprise as we haven't spoken in a year. The first words out of his mouth were, "I didn't mean to pick up the phone." He then hung up. FML
Today, my estranged father, with whom I haven't spoken in years, called me and demanded to know where his Father's Day gift was. FML
Today, I finally had a phone call after a week of nothing. It was my mother. It was by accident. FML

This FML reminds me of a quote "There are many great people in the world who had jerks for parents" Don't worry op, he's just as ass whole, I'm sure you didn't do anything bad enough to diserve what he's doing to you.

Think of the bright side - He still hasn't deleted your number.

Wow, this is just like that other one. Where the chick got a call from her crush, she missed it and the voicemail was blank, she txts him only to find out his phone accidentally dialed.

Um...All I have to say is at least you know and talked to your dad at one point in life. I know who mine is but he died before I figured it out. So just be glad that you have him...or had.

You don't know the OP's history with their father. Not all parents are good, and you shouldn't make OP's fml feel petty by comparison. Remember: 'Just because you broke your arm, it doesn't make my paper cut hurt any less.'

I'm curious why Dad has vowed to have nothing to do with the OP? This isn't relevant really to the shittiness of this, but....I'm nosy. Dad needs to get your number out of his phone if he doesn't want anything to do with you.
