Today, I met my fiancé's much older sister for the first time. Turns out she is actually my old high school English teacher who used to make me cry at least 3 times a week. It's been three hours and I've accidentally called her Miss Willow 4 times and been reduced to tears twice. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I met my mom's fiancé. He's a nice guy, he's also my wife's dad. I'll soon call my wife my sister. FML
Today, my daughter got engaged. Her fiancé is not only 25 years older than her, but was her teacher in middle school. FML
Today, I saw my older sister for the first time in three years. We hadn't spoke since I found out that she was the woman my college boyfriend left me for. Unfortunately, our reunion was fueled by her two-year-old son's desire to meet his dad. My husband. FML
Today, I was meeting my sister's fiancé. I went to an internet cafe before I went to her house for dinner with them. I was on a computer and there was this really attractive man next to me. I was flirting with him and we exchanged numbers. Turns out, he is my sister's fiancé. FML
Today, I was introduced to my future stepmother, but it turns out that I already know her. Not only are we the same age and went to the same high school, when we were in the same math class together the teacher would often confuse our names because "we could pass as twins". FML
Today, I met my sister's fiancé. I would have been happier for her if he hadn't been mine a month ago when I introduced them. 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, my younger sister stopped talking to me. I got engaged to my boyfriend of 4 years and apparently, she's been in love with him since she met him. Through me. She's 12. FML
Today, we travelled back to England to meet my fiance's family. Turns out her cousin is a guy I hated from high school. I tried to be an adult, but we began sniping insults at each other like we used to. By the end of the night, we realised we actually missed hating each other and are now, ew, frenemies. 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

Who cries in High School? I mean I get it if you're in Kindergarten but c'mon you're too old for that.

Crying is a normal emotional response. Crying has no age limit and no academic grade level limit. If you said you never cried in high school I would automatically you assumed you were lying.

Or a sociopath.

I'm someone who cries when I'm upset, frustrated, angry, or stressed. It's not something I can help or get over because it's just how I respond to those things. Granted, I can usually hold it together until I get somewhere private, but there were a handful of times in high school when I didn't. OP could be the same way.

Just wow.. clearly you dont understand the struggles OP has gone through highschool, not everyone has it easy & can easily control their emotions. There is nothing wrong to cry regardless how old you are.

Just play To The Moon and you'll understand what crying is like, even in and beyond high school.

And you sound like a dick.

Well why would she make you cry?
iAlissa 34
Obviously no one here knows the whole situation, but if she's really being a bully, you'd think your fiancé would say something. Then again, siblings often take priority in protecting one another, even when one is in the wrong. I sincerely hope she lightens up or you can overcome whatever tension lies between you two
Lalala579121 28
But significant others take priority, even over siblings.

Unfortunately that's not always how it goes, at least in my experiences :/
Lalala579121 28
Then, no offense to you or the people you know, whatever people give you those kind of experiences are kind of dicks. In a situation where neither party is blatantly in the wrong (like in this FML I would defend OP no matter the relation), I can't imagine why someone would overtly side with the person they will probably see only on holidays over the person they will spend the rest of their life with.
