Today, I had to bribe my cousin with Monster Energy Drinks and Halo 5 so he wouldn't tell my mom I snuck out to meet a boy. I'm 24. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I met a guy that I liked. We really hit it off, that is until his parents walked by and he started begging them, down on his hands and knees, to buy him a new video game. FML
Today, my cousin invited me to an event that'll be happening on Saturday night. The first thing I did after she texted me was ask my mom if I could go. I'm 20. FML
Today, I got caught stealing lollies. I am 25. 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 went to buy beer underage for a party to impress a girl. I picked up the case of beer and went to the cashier, he ran it through without asking for ID. I left the store with a smirk on my face, I arrived at the party and showed the case to the girl. It was non-alcoholic. FML
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
Today, my relatives told me that when I stay at their house for the holidays, I'm no longer allowed to be out past 10 because somebody drugged my drink once. I'm a 25 year old man. FML
Today, my girlfriend's mother invited me to her 18th birthday. She lied about her age. I have been screwing a minor for 2 years. 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, and in the past week since became a full-time dad to my 16 year-old son, he's got caught sneaking out at night, lost his virginity, and I had to call the cops because he was caught trying to go two states over to be with said girl. I think he's trying to make me look bad. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Your 24? Surely you have the right to meet whatever boys you want.

If your parents aren't allowing you to live your life it might be time to try and move out.

Then don't sneak out.

She's 24.
Death546 25
I think that at 24 she has the right to do whatever she wants.

24? wtf is she sneaking out for?

It really doesn't matter how old you are. If someone else (like your parents) is providing for you (like the roof you sleep under) you have to abide by their rules. It's common decency.
LilMissCanadian 22
#67, she's 24. Well into adulthood. I think by mid 20's one should be able to talk to boys.
remometol 16
I'm not sure all she did was talk...

86, so the **** what? By mid-twenties, it's her choice whether or not to **** anyone.

I was just about to say the same thing.

It might be one of those "my house, my rules" situations where OP is old enough to hang with boys, but going out at night is not allowed as long as OP is under that roof.

I agree with #25, but if your mom is that overprotective then I FYL but if not then YDI

I was living with my husband for a year when I was 18-19.. Had a problem where I had to stay with my mom for one month. She had the my house my rules crap with a curfew and all. I just don't understand when parents do that.

cheeeksss 29
I moved out recently because I'm an only child so my parents used to watch me like hawks. It was the best decision I've ever made. If I can do it, so can you OP. Time to take control of your life and not let others tell you what to do.

Just start singing Rage Against The Machine songs, maybe they'll get the picture.
laden_swallow09 35
They won't get the picture. They'll just barge in the room and scream, "TURN THAT GARBAGE DOWN! Half the county can hear you!" Parents. Amirite?
Lalala579121 28
And then you just say "**** you I won't do what you tell me" over and over until they leave. What could possibly go wrong?

#61 They could kick her out. Generally 24 year olds don't live with their parents unless they have to. So getting kicked out would be your plan going very wrong.
Lalala579121 28
They really need to make understanding sarcasm a prerequisite for going on FML.

you're 24 and you're meeting a "boy". I can imagine why you should hide that..
rvontr88 21
Amen!
odamaliekh 26
If your mom is so strict on you meeting guys when you're 24, it sounds like it's time to move out. If for any reason you are not able to because of money or such, try talking to your mom. Tell her you are 24 now, an adult, and that you should be allowed to meet guys if you want to. Good luck OP!:)
NigerianPrince 11
maybe she is still in college or is working on moving out
allforfun 23
Agreed. Setting boundaries with your parents is hard but necessary
RandKP 21
#64 She lives with her parents, that means her parents set the boundaries, and she abides by them or leaves.

I know the feeling Op. Might be time to move out.

Did you sneak out to meet Romeo again? Juliet?!
Anubis95_fml 10
juliet was 13.
laden_swallow09 35
And Romeo was 17. Read the script, #10.

U so naughty

I know your pain, some parents just don't know when to let go and realize you're too old to be scolded or "told" you aren't allowed to do things. Also guys, who knows, maybe they're trying to be financially smart and are going to college or something : (
