Today, I went for a hike with my new boyfriend on a fairly deserted trail my ex-husband had shown me awhile back. In all my hikes there, I've never seen another person and figured it would be okay to get intimate. Guess who came hiking past? That's right, my ex-husband. And our 8yr old son. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I found out that after reuniting with an old boyfriend, getting close with his two year old son, and moving closer to him to properly be a part of their lives, he got back together with his ex-wife. FML
Today, I took my kids to the park. I saw my daughter playing with a kid who looked familiar. Turns out he was my ex’s son, whom I haven’t seen in years. I thought it was cute they played so well together, until my ex’s new girlfriend came over, screaming that I was trying to use my kid to get to her man. FML
Today, I went on a hiking date with my significant other. Trying to be adventurous and assertive, I suggested we take a shortcut through the woods. We got hopelessly lost and ended up spending the night in a deserted ranger station. Turns out, my idea of adventure is not quite as romantic as it sounds. FML
Today, I was out for a jog when I saw my ex-boyfriend walking towards me. I tried to duck behind a tree to avoid him, but I slipped on a plastic bag and fell into a lovely patch of mud. He saw the whole thing and walked away smirking. FML
Today, I went to meet my boyfriend for a walk. It's our anniversary, and I hadn't seen him in over a month because of the quarantine, so we agreed to meet, as long as we had the proper safety gear and were careful. On my way to meet him, I drove past a park. In it were twelve half-naked teenagers playing volleyball. FML
Today, I took my new girl out on a date after work. Ten minutes later, my ex-wife, her new boyfriend and my daughter showed up at the same restaurant and decided a double date would be fun. My ex lives an hour away. FML
Today, my date bumped into her ex-husband, who decided to join us for the rest of the dinner. FML
Today, I went to spend some time with my family. Unbeknownst to me, while I was having quality time with my family, my boyfriend of a year and a half was packing up his belongings and going back to his estranged wife. FML
Today my boyfriend left his camera with me. I wanted to see the recent photos we took at the park next to my house. I scrolled through and found pictures of him and his ex-girlfriend the weekend before at the same park, posing under the same tree we had taken a photo. We've been together for a year. FML
Today, I ran into my ex-boyfriend at the store, holding hands with his very pregnant girlfriend. They were buying baby supplies. We had a very nasty and painful breakup not even three months ago. FML

It's apparent that you only think of yourself if you think this is an FYL. Imagine how your son felt. Should've figured your ex could be there since he showed it to you in the first place.

FYL- you were trying to live it up FHL (bf) - This is a pop up blocker to roll around in his head for a while FHL (son) - Probably should be the top one FHL (ex) - He did nothing wrong, and this will be a blow to him

Never get a divorce when you have a child, unless you have a VERY good reason. Until I find out what your reason was, you're a stupid bitch in my eyes.

What is wrong with you? Divorce can often be a better option, especially when kids are involved.

@ 122: What's wrong with you? Have you ever even talked to kids of divorced parents? I have. In fact, I am one of those kids. It tears families apart. I had to go see a therapist because I was so broken up over it. It's the "it's usually the best option" kind if thinking that leads to the 50% divorce rate in this country. It's rarely the best option. People just don't even want to try anymore.

Haha. You totally deserved that. Why would you go to that spot even if you never saw anyone else there... HELLO. Your ex could be there?

You know, that as unhappy as it may make a child to have divorced parents, it isn't fair for the mother to have to live the rest of her life with someone she doesn't love.
