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?

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

Do you understand how serious of a crime it would be to take a DNA TEST FROM A CHILD without parental consent.

He could just have traits from someone in either family from very very far back. Without a DNA test, don't flip out

that's a horrible thing to think about your own husband! expecting something that awful with that little "evidence" is just way too paranoid, I feel sorry for your husband having such a unloving and overdramatic wife!

If neither of your parents have blue eyes, it is impossible to have a child with blue eyes. As far as freckles and dimples, those are recessive and may or may not have skipped a few generations. Buy just in case, double check with a DNA test. Don't sweat it til you have all the proof.

Errr, blue eyes is also a recessive gene. So it's entirely possible for neither parent to have blue eyes but for their child to have them. Like freckles and dimples, it could easily have skipped a generation or two. OP, don't worry too much until you have all the facts. Or until the kid grows up to look like your husband.

Only thing that can reveal the truth is a DNA test ;)

I'm the only one with hazel eyes in my family...... ._. Genes can skip too, OP. Don't be so quick to lead to suspicions!

Not in this case. Get your DNA checked. Seriously. If someone has green/blue eyes, it means they own absolutely no brown/hazel-eyes gene, 0. So if BOTH parents have blue/green eyes, then the baby will NEVER have hazel eyes. It is impossible. "Genes can skip" does not work in this case. I am very sorry.

Well, from what I know, both my grandparents had brown eyes.... So, I guess I'm safe? :D

No. 2 hazel-eyed people can have a blue-eyed kid. But two blue-eyed people can't have a hazel-eyed kid. Search on Google: "Blue Eyes -- A Clue To Paternity" ScienceDaily And read carefully.

BellaMarta is wrong.
