Today, I went to a family dinner. My grandma wasted no time calling me a slut for not wearing a dress, my dad called my police officer boyfriend a "fucking pig", and then he told my mother to "put a cock in it" when she defended me. No wonder I hardly ever visit these people. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my husband came home from a six-month business trip. When I saw him, I hugged and kissed him. My grandma started calling me a slutty whore, and told us we were a disgrace to our family, while trying to hit him with her cane. FML
Today, I went to my step-sister's for family dinner. Her husband was really drunk and openly hit on me in front of most of my family. I nonchalantly ignored his advances. Later, my step-mom said it would not have happened if I didn't dress like a skank. FML
Today, I took my boyfriend to a family dinner. It went well, until my dad got drunk and started telling everyone about how "midgets" are assholes and are ruining America. FML
Today, I went to see my grandmother. She has Alzheimer's and doesn't remember me sometimes, and today she thought I was her sister and that I was trying to steal my grandfather from her. She hit me with a cane and called me a slut. FML
Today, I was listening to music while my grandma and mom were in the same room. I only had one headphone in. My mom, thinking I had both in, started telling my grandma how much of a "little bitch" I am. My grandma went on to say, "She's also a slut." FML
Today, I decided to dress up a little to go out to the bar. I put on a nice shirt, some leggings, and heels. When I walked out the door, my dad said that I looked like a whore. When I got to my boyfriend's house I told him what my dad had said and he replied, "I'd have to agree with him." FML
Today, I was having lunch with my fiancé's family. After he excused himself to use the bathroom, his grandmother glared at me, sneered, "I never liked you" and kept eating while the others smirked. When my fiancé returned, everyone pretended nothing had happened. FML
Today, I visited my family. Over the course of 2 hours, my brother punched me, and my mom slapped me across the face after drinking way too much wine. When I started gathering my things to leave, my mom started crying about how I don't visit enough. FML
Today, I had to sit and smile as a drunk lady ranted about how body hair on a woman is disgusting and unfeminine, then in the next breath say that only pedos like women who shave their vaginas. That's the last time I ever have dinner with my boyfriend's parents. FML
Today, I got dragged along to a family dinner. Some idiot invited my douchebag vegan uncle, who spent half the night making condescending remarks and lecturing us on how disgusting it was to have steak on offer at the table. A fistfight eventually erupted, and the cops were called. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I think that's the first time I've ever heard of anyone being called a **** for NOT wearing a dress. And here I thought my family was weird.

Your family has some serious issues then, your father especially. From this one example, he seems very abusive, at least verbally, and I feel bad for you for having to be raised around a man like that. You should try to cut them out of your life, to protect yourself. Don't exhaust your emotional resources trying to change your relationship with them, because they're not going to change unless they want to. Maybe you could try to find a way to talk to your mother, though, without involving the others, since she stuck up for you. She's probably pretty miserable herself, being stuck around that all the time, so she might appreciate having some more communication with you, OP. Your life does suck though, and I honestly hope it'll get a little better for you. I hate abusive parental figures.

GayMatt 22
I agree :)

A **** because you DIDN'T wear a dress? Was your grandma wearing a dress? Nothing higher than an ankle dress I hope..

You should become rich an famous, so when they ask for money, you can just spit their words back in their faces.

They sound just peachy.

38- Was that suppose to be a pun? O_o
rgriff27 19
No, it was supposed to be irony.
naya_bingi 11
You mean sarcasm?

HelloSirs 14
Well she does not specify if she was wearing anything else. She could have been in the nude.
etchsanity1 11
Sounds Amish or Mennonite wearing pants is considered to be distasteful and crude lol poor girl.
lilhellian 27
Both of those religions are against modern technology.. So if Op was ammish, this wouldn't be on FML..
Ambience138 11
She's from NZ, we don't really have Amish people over here.
theninja1800 11
Yeah that's new definitely... But if I was the dad I probably would have made a negative comment about the cop too haha so no hate on the dad from me except that he yelled at his wife
happle 21
What's wrong with cops?
sens3sfailing 25
I would just loooooove to throw all the little idiots who hate on cops into a room with a bunch of criminals about to beat the shit out of you, with cops standing near by, and see how fast they run to them for protection. They just get all pissy because cops actually contribute to make society work so they may smoke their pot in peace. Shortsighted Neanderthals....

Yeah, usually you wear a dress to grant easy access
CanWeMicrowaveIt 11
Yeah 104 is right, I love wearing dresses in my spare time. Who am I kidding, I wear dresses all the time!

Wrong home?

Home is where the heart is so the real home's in your chest! Everyone's a hero in their own way!

I normally just use wool and wood blocks to make a bed so I can just spawn at home.

Home is where you can shit comfortably.

If this FML was a pancake, it would be a good pancake.
kriz_allizwell 6
if this FML were a pancake, it would be a blue waffle. A pain in the, um, you know...
mariah_1_11 22
But would it be a good pancake with blueberries... Or chocolate chips?

Stuart little? Is that you?

OP should take Mom and run!!

Nor should you feel obligated to. They sound like arrogant pricks, to put it nicely. Sharing some gene sequences doesn't make that behavior acceptable.

Tourette's probably runs in the family.
OhDearBetrayal 25
Tourette's and that behavior have nothing in common. Stop stereotyping a disorder.
oj101 33
I was referring to the excessive swearing. And it wasn't literal, or meant to be taken seriously.
CharresBarkrey 16
Tourette's is not excessive swearing.
howdeedoo 22
How dare you not wear a dress! And a police officer? What are you thinking?
Coop817 19
She likes the handcuffs
TML329 14
I thank she's more into the taser ;)
jgriff79 23
Your boyfriend should have used his taser on your dad and grandma.
