Today, I noticed my nephew has blue eyes, freckles and dimples which don't run in my family or my sister's husband's family, but they do run in my husband's family. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my wife and I both have blond hair and blue eyes, we just had a red headed son. FML
Today, I ran into a friend that I hadn't seen in about 5 years. She had her 4-year-old son with her. I couldn’t help but notice her son looked almost identical to mine. He even had a very distinct facial feature that my husband has as well. What are the odds all three of them have the same defect? FML
Today, as I was perusing old photos with my mother, I found one of her with a "childhood friend" at her wedding to my dad. Now I know where my green eyes and blotchy neck birthmark came from, and it's not from the man I’ve been calling "dad" for 40 years. FML
Today, after always laughing when my mom told me to avoid dating any guy with green eyes and thinking it was some weird prejudice, she told me the truth. My father cheated and had at least six other kids. They all have green eyes and look alike. FML
Today, my niece started crying because she thought that someday she'll look like me. FML
Today, my family is too damn close. My uncle on my dad's side just got my aunt on my mum's side pregnant, three cousins from dad's side are dating three cousins from mum's side, and a half brother from my dad is marrying my half sister from my mum. We are the inbred rednecks of this town. FML
Today, I was complimented on my freckles. I don't actually have freckles, just a load of blackheads that won't go away. FML
Today, I asked my girlfriend what she loves the most about me. She said it's the fact that I look like her cousin. FML
Today, I was chatting with my optician and it came up that eye colour is determined by parents eye colour, such as how blue and brown-eyed parents can’t make a green-eyed baby. My wife and I are blue and brown. Our 6 year-old has green eyes. I confronted her and she admitted she'd had an affair. FML
Today, my date told me I have a smile that "reminds him of his grandma." Then he showed me a picture. I look exactly like her. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Run a DNA test on both. Then kick ass if your poor sweet nephew is your stepson.

Anyone else reminded of "The Farkel Family" on "Laugh-In" decades ago? Joke was that all the Farkel kids had bright red hair, freckles, and glasses... just like their next-door neighbor.

OP - Mention this to your sister. Being suspicious of your husband is not likely to go away by itself.

O M Gizzle!!!! That is horrible. But they are recessive traits. Ur sister and husband could both have the recessive gene for those.

You know blue eyes are a mutation right? And also a recessive trait.

They're not a mutation. They are recessive though.

254, Originally they are a mutation. Many traits are a result of genetic mutations, hence evolution.

Apart from the already beaten to death on here fact that these are all recessive traits, has the OP even considered that hmmmm her husband may not be the only person that has these traits?? Your sister could have slept with anyone, if she actually did cheat. OP has managed to jump to conclusions that BOTH her husband AND sister would cheat, AND cheat with each other with absolutely no evidence other then the traits of a baby. OP doesn't even say it looks like her husband. I almost hope that OP is proved right because she would totally deserve it for being a suspicious bitch in the first place. OP: YDI and should receive counseling for your obvious issues.

Sounds like someone either fell asleep in science/biology class or somebody else cheated. I'll just assume the first. Sorry OP!

Could just be a throwback. My brother has a small nose and freckles, but I have a big nose and no freckles but my parents weren't unfaithful. It sounds like you have trust issues.
