Today, my daughter-in-law revealed to me that she caught my husband having an affair with her best friend. This was five years ago, and she is only telling me now because he stopped paying her the blackmail money to keep her mouth shut. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I found out that my estranged daughter has been married for five years. I wasn't told of or invited to their wedding, and the only reason I know now is because she needs money for a divorce lawyer. FML
Today, I found out that my husband has been seeing another woman and my 16 year-old daughter once caught them while I was at work. She didn’t tell me about it because she was enjoying all the hush gifts, shoes, purses, and the payments for her BMW X3. FML
Today, I found out my wife has been bribing my daughter to keep quiet about her affair with my boss. That would explain the iPhone 4S, the $500 shoes, the $200 purse, and the professional $300 haircut. They told me it was because she had straight A's. FML
Today, I found out that my wife has been having an affair with the guy who's been trying to get our relationship back on track. FML
Today, I found out that my girlfriend has been cheating on me. I also found out that my best friend knew about it all along. When I confronted him, he tried to justify the betrayal by saying that she paid him to keep quiet. FML
Today, I received a text from a man my wife had an affair with, in which he stated that my 18 year-old daughter is biologically his. He then sent me pictures of her that my wife had sent to him. FML
Today, my husband came clean to having an affair with my sister. I later found out my other sister encouraged the affair because she thought they'd be a cute couple. FML
Today, my husband and I sat our 10-year-old daughter down for a chat over her recent cursing. When my husband asked where she'd heard the words, she "innocently" replied, "from mommy's other boyfriend." He took her seriously, accused me of cheating, and hasn't been home since. FML
Today, my husband admitted that he's been spying on me for the last 5 years to see if I was cheating, out of paranoia brought on by his own cheating for all 5 of those years. FML
Today, my wife somehow found out that my "surprise bonus" from earlier this year was actually hush money from my boss to keep quiet about her affair. Rather than let a good thing alone, she threw a fit and called my boss's husband. Now I'm jobless, and my boss has sworn I'll never work in my industry again. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Wonder if you son knew about it and knew if his shitty wife was collecting money for it. If he did I'd disown my son. Seriously.

Have sex with him and see if he will take you back. If not, then thar really sucks for you ;) then he must REALLY hate you.

If he's been cheating for the past five years, I doubt she even wants him back.

Last time I checked, having an affair wasn't illegal, but blackmail was. Do whatever you want with your husband - it's your life and your decision, but make sure you report her to the cops and press charges. Alternatively, explain that to her, and tell her that if she doesn't 'see the error of her ways' and pay back every cent, she's going to jail.

Scratch that idea. Like I just said, it's not blackmail, it's a bribe. And it's not a crime, just scummy. Turn off Law & Order, dude.

I think you need to look up the definitions of both 'blackmail' and 'bribe', as you've completely misused them both. As for it not being a crime, refer to US Code Title 18 § 873. Also, just for reference, I don't watch Law & Order.

Actually, it's not "blackmail money," it's bribe money.
