Today, my daughter was telling everyone at her elementry school about my gay partner. Yes, I have a gay partner. He is my work partner and he happens to be gay. FML
Collection
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 my daughter is dating my boss's daughter. I found this out because my extremely homophobic boss told me and wants me to 'heal' them or get fired. I didn't even know my daughter was gay. FML
Today, I found out that my son has been telling me he's gay so we would allow the "female friend" who is actually his girlfriend to stay over. FML
Today, at 18, I finally told my mom I was gay. She spent the rest of the day bringing up my "future wife" at every possible chance she had. FML
Today, I came out of the closet. Now whenever I'm getting ready to go somewhere with my dad he says, "Lesgo, lesbo." FML
Today, I introduced my girlfriend to my parents. My mother turned to me and said, "Wait you're actually gay? I thought you were just saying that to piss off your father." I came out to her when I was 16, and have confided in her about my past relationships. FML
Today, a stranger told me how proud he was that my boyfriend and I were so open with our sexuality. For the past three years, most strangers have thought we're a pair of gay men. I'm a woman. FML
Today, I found out that my parents have thought I'm lesbian for at least a year. I now understand why my dad has been trying to get me to "hang out" with his co-worker's daughter. FML
Today, I finally let my parents meet a boyfriend of mine for the first time ever. My dad mentioned how he was happy to finally meet him, because for the past 4 years he'd thought I was gay. FML
Today, I introduced my girlfriend to my family for the first time. My mother's immediate reaction was, "We didn't know you were gay!" No mom, she really is a girl. FML
Today, I found out that my girlfriend is actually a man. Not a transgender person, I'm okay with that, but an actual gay man who gets a kick out of pranking other guys. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I find it interesting that you are comparing gay people to Hitler and you think they are bad, meaning you must think Hitler was bad. Well I hate to inform you but thinking people are evil and should die because of one thing about them like religion or sexual orientation makes you just the same as Hitler. It makes you a very narrow minded individual who lacks the intelligence to be able to see people for who they really are and not for something they feel or believe in.

Why does this matter? It's just a simple misunderstanding- "Oh, haha, he's not my boyfriend." I don't understand why people find this funny. They wouldn't find it funny if it were two straight people of different genders. The only thing making this "funny" is that people (elementary schoolers, to be exact) think you're gay. And I really don't see how that's funny.

It's funny because it's not just a simple misunderstanding. All the kids in her class will now go tell their parents, and everyone will think he's gay as well as his daughter's teachers. Sure, that doesn't sound like a bad thing, but just because you aren't homophobic doesn't mean the rest of society isn't as well. I don't know what part of Florida OP is from, but they'll probably stigmatize him and his daughter - hopefully she doesn't get made fun of. He can't just go back and correct it and say "Oh haha, he's not my boyfriend." At least not easily. It's unfortunate but true in most America.

Exactly. Depending on what the people in his community are like, it could range from a small misunderstanding to ostracism and harassment.

So basically it boils down to, "A bunch of homophobic assholes will think less of me." Well, that's their problem, not yours, and you shouldn't care what a bunch of homophobic assholes think.

You still haven't explained how someone possibly being ostracized by a homophobic community equals funny. That's pretty sad, actually. Nothing about this FML is funny.

Oh, well then boo hoo for the person who isn't actually gay and can easily brush off the harrassment by saying "meet my wife/girlfriend." Maybe if more straight people felt the ostracism gay people did we would have less homophobia.

Why should it matter that people think you're gay? As long as your wife/girlfriend doesn't.

Depending on why your daughter absolutely had to know he was gay (when it's really nobody's business) - you may have deserved that one.

Wow, I like how everyone here is trying to be a parent. It's a funny story, so just laugh at it and stop tryna tell him how to run his family. Anyway, FYL haha

To everyone saying that he shouldn't be talking about his coworker's personal life with his family: He may have had his partner over to dinner and the topic may have arisen. And it could be an FML because of how the rest of his community feels about gays. Doesn't mean he's homophonbic. So stop being so ******* judgemental. You don't know the whole situation.
