Today, I was talking to my mom lamenting the fact that none of my few relationships seem to last longer than 2 months. She asked why and I said, "because I'm paranoid, obsessive compulsive, judgmental, defensive, and stubborn." Instead of encouraging me, she said, "Well, at least you're honest." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I asked my mom why nobody likes me. She reeled off about a dozen reasons. FML
Today, my mom tried to give me a pep talk to boost my self confidence. Somehow, it ended up turning into a conversation about how much of a loser I am and how I have no friends. FML
Today, I told my mom that I was taking antidepressants because I hate myself. She said "That's not surprising. You hate everybody. And, you're kind of a bitch." FML
Today, my father described me as "the sort of sucker women marry then cheat on all the time." My mother agreed with him. FML
Today, my mom confessed that she has to make up compliments to give to prove me wrong when I said she can never say positive things about me. FML
Today, I was talking to my mom about how my fiancé has been ignoring me and that I didn't know why. Turns out, my mother told him that I was too much of a handful, was mentally disturbed and also cheating on him. Just so I wouldn't move out and would keep cleaning her house for free. FML
Today, I asked my mother if we could test me for OCD, since so many people have suggested to me that I might have it. She smiles at me and says, "No, honey, you're just really really weird." FML
Today, my mom told me my relationship is a joke, because teenagers don't understand the meaning of relationships and commitment. I couldn't help but remind her how she's divorced three separate men to date. She hit me over the head so hard that snot flew out of my nose. FML
Today, my mother is such a nosy, intruding busybody, she has driven away my last three boyfriends who could no longer stand her. My latest fella had even proposed, but he asked for the ring back and you can bet he blamed my mother for repeatedly involving herself in our private business. FML
Today, my anxious, obsessive, overbearing mother called me four times. That's significantly less than usual. When I complained to my dad, he said, "She just worries about you because she loves you." I don't feel loved, I feel smothered. FML

Well, if you posted that here looking for some encouragement - all I can say is your Mom knows you better than I do so I'm going to have to go with her assessment. "Put on your big girl panties", stop whining, and start addressing your problems!

If you know your flaws, why do you let them ruin your relationships?

What do all these short, bad relationships have in common? You. So stop whining and fishing for compliments from your mom, and fix it!

YDI. If you've realized you have problems, it's your duty to try fix them. :/ You sound like a loser who just wants sympathy from mommy, imo.

Suck it up, OP, feelings are for women and pansies! You know you have problems, your mum's smart enough to know denying it will help nobody, so you can either act like a man and seek to fix the problem, or act like a chick and go looking for empathy, then get all pissy when anyone tried to help you solve the problem.

What did you want your mother to say? You were being honest about faults you have - she should have added "Quit bitching and work on your issues." You've obviously already identified the issues. Fix them, and use them in positive ways.

How is this a FML? Slap your side upside the head and go 'DOH'. The fact that you are honest and self aware Is a great gift. The vast majority of people don't have what you just exhibited. Use your self awareness and honesty to grow and improve yourself. Without honesty and self awareness true growth isn't even possible. With it EVERYTHING is possible. Again what you have is a GIFT.. use it. 'dumbass' :-p
