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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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.

Incest :)

In no way is that incest. Incest is when two blood related family members have sexual intercourse. If OP's husband and her sister aren't blood related.

"Incest" is never "wincest". Keep that in mind.

44 - Well they might be, but that would require more incest.

This comment is doubly alarming. Firstly, it indicates a clear misunderstanding of the word incest. Secondly, the smiley face suggests approval of this unsavory behavior. I suggest either educating yourself on the acceptable sexual norms of society or improving your joke telling abilities.

Why cross the street when you can cross the hall.

Op, I know it's easy to be suspicious, but there's such a thing as uncommon, recessive genes. They pop up rarely & skip a few generations - how do you know what color eyes your brother-in-law's grandparents had? It's immature of you to be so quick to assume cheating because of his eye color/freckles. Come on.

Exactly, neither of my parents have blue eyes but me and my brother do because my granddad (dads side) and great grandma (mums side) did, it skipped over some people and we got them.

And if she was cheating, which you shouldn't be quick to assume so, doesn't mean it was with your husband.

I hope you're just overreacting. If not, I wish you luck.

It is possible for certain features to skip generations/other family members. It all depends on the dominent gene, so dont sweat it!

Why would you immediately assume your nephew is your husband's child? Is there a history we need to know of? If not, and it's just a matter of you not trusting your sister or husband, then F Their Lives for having such a paranoid, suspicious person in their lives.
