Today, I learned my 40 year old father is marrying a girl barely a year and a half older than me. She told me not to be afraid to call her mom. I was torn between punching her in the face and vomiting. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I found out that my father asked my best friend to marry him. He's 38 and we're 18. She said yes. FML
Today, I discovered that my father is getting married. Overjoyed and confused because I didn't know he was dating, I called him up to congratulate him, and ask who she was. Apparently, his soon to be fiancée is my mother-in-law. My wife is not happy. FML
Today, I was forced to sit silently through my 20-year-old daughter's wedding to a man who is 8 years older than I am. FML
Today, I called my dad to tell him my boyfriend had proposed to me, and that we're planning on being married this summer. He was surprised at the short engagement, so I said, "Well, we're almost 30." Dad replied, "Wow, I left your mom when I was 35!" So not the conversation for that information, Dad. FML
Today, my dad married his fiancée, who insists I call her "Mom." I'm three years older than her, and went to the same high school. She's taking me shopping next week to buy me "something nice." FML
Today, I learned who my dad's new fiancée is. Upon meeting her she exclaimed, "My, I haven't seen you in a while!" She's my ex-boyfriend's mom. FML
Today, I found out my newly-divorced father is now going to marry my girlfriend's mother. Tough situation here. FML
Today, my dad is getting married for the 4th time. First it was my mom, then as they got older, he married a woman 10 years his junior, then his third wife was my age and 28 years his junior. Now at the grand old age of 64, he is marrying a 22 year old, 42 years his junior, almost 2 decades younger than me. FML
Today, my boyfriend, who's a bit older than me, introduced me to his daughter. I was expecting a toddler. Nope, she's a year older than me. FML
Today, my dad's new wife, who is two years younger than me (I'm 24) and hates that I'm a lesbian, threw a fit when I told her that I would never call her Mom. My dad took her side. I don't live with them but still… FML

Your dad is having male menopause. by the time he's "cured" he will also be broke. Bribe the DJ at the wedding to play the Kayne West song "Goldigger". She'll get your message.

Sounds like your dad and mother had you when they were really young, and so this isn't unusual. A 40 year old guy marrying a 21 or 22 year old girl can work. Just forget about the age. Move on - but you don't need to call the girl "mom". That's just dumb.

I am 37... my father starting dating a girl just 2 years older than me when I was 18(he was 42)... I'd known her since I was 9 and we even went to the same schools... didn't like her then, don't like her now... she's been trying to "mother" me since day one... they've been together for 18 1/2 years. It sucks!=P

IF the guy didn't have a daughter, I'd say it's not that bad. However, the fact that he has a daughter and is dating someone very close in age to her is wrong because he knows what it's like to be a parent and should consider her and girls in her age group to be "children," but instead he is showing that he finds 'children' of that age to be potential sexual partners. That is definitely on the pedophilic side, and that's what's wrong with it.

That must suck. It's like you tell her your secrets and then she grounds you.
