Today, my dad told me he was planning to have his steady girlfriend over for dinner. He's only had a few relationships since he and my mom split up when I was very young, so I was excited to meet the woman. He then told me that I knew her already. My dad is dating my aunt on my mothers side. FML

Your aunt is a bitch.

If they get married that's gonna be really hard to explain

Wow, if they get married that is going to be one awkward family reunion. :/ Good luck with that...

No. Way. ¬_¬

Its not inbreeding at all. Although, If they had children, you and your half siblings would have the exact same set of grandparents. In a way that is nice because they are like whole-siblings. Apart from the debate that it might not be morally wrong out of respect for the dead etc, there is no reason why this is, genetically speaking, wrong. It makes sense he likes her because she is probably very similar to what your mom was like. I do feel bad for you though, especially if it makes you feel really awkward.

#16, The person who wrote this comment said THEY are not connected by blood, as in the father and the aunt. You should apologise for trying to make him look stupid when he's quite correct.

No dumbass, not at all, at what point does being in a relationship with someone make them your blood relative. No ceremony and no amount of sex will magically make two people from different families blood related

I don't see this as a big issue. OP's parents split up a long time ago, so the wounds should be healed over. Her father has had some relationships since then, so it's NOT like he dumped her mother for her aunt, or (presumably) dumped her because he was cheating with her aunt. I'm also assuming that she has a relationship with her aunt, so her father's new girlfriend will get along with her. It could be much, much, much worse. Not a FML

hey, at least it better than it being your aunt on your dad's side but one of my friend's parents did that he had a lot of trouble explaining it

yeah i was gonna say the same thing, dangit

I'd love to see your family tree after this...

This is more of a "F your mom's life"

My buddy's dad did this, only after his wife DIED.

that is kinda weird

Actually, it's not considered abnormal in some cultures if a person marries their dead spouse's sibling.

My father did that. My brother and I and our aunt son were all pretty young though so it wasn't that weird. We just consider her our mother now and her son our step-brother
