Today, my grandparents thought it would be acceptable to give me and my wife Christmas presents to take to my ex-wife, along with a card saying how much they missed her and to get in touch with them next time she is in town. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my parents refused to give my daughter her Christmas presents as an act of revenge against her father. FML
Today, I went to my uncle's house to celebrate Christmas. His kids don't have their own phones so I let them play with mine. They sent all my contacts messages saying I love them, including two of my ex-girlfriends who both immediately wanted to make up and started to frantically call me. FML
Today, my mom is coming to pick up the Christmas presents we got for her and her husband. She won’t come inside or come within 6 feet, so she can be healthy when she goes down to the ex-wife’s parents house to hang out. The ex in-laws that hate me. Glad my mom chose them over me. FML
Today, my mother called to uninvite me from Christmas, my ex-wife is going and she doesn't want it to be awkward for her. FML
Today, I received a Christmas card from my husband’s parents and found for the 7th straight year I wasn’t included on the card. Instead they included a picture of my husband’s ex-girlfriend holding my baby. I’ve already received messages asking if he’s back together with her. No. No he’s not. FML
Today, I sent a christmas card to my husband's uncle and aunt. I'd forgotten that the uncle died last year. FML
Today, I found out my ex got invited to our Christmas Party. I also found out that she got much more presents and money from my family than I did. FML
Today, I had the worst Xmas of my life. My wife has been screeching all day about my ex-wife being at a party, As if I invited her, or even had any knowledge of her being there. I even had to go outside to hide my tears of anger and frustration. This has been going on for 30 years now. FML
Today, I was at the reading of my grandma's will. Apparently I was removed from it some time ago, and the £2,500 I would have gotten went to my cheating bitch of an ex-fiancée. It seems my grandma adored her, and never forgave me for "driving her away" from the family. FML
Today, I got a call from my grandmother. Turns out my father found out about my elopement with my husband through my stepmother, because someone she works with told her. We were planning on it being a surprise, and telling people on Christmas. My father won't even talk to me now. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

My current wife is very sweet and nice and the ex is terrible to me and my family, but they still won't let her go for some reason. I have tried talking to them but they refuse to listen to me or believe what I say. And to answer #9 the card was not in an envelope.

Nobody is saying the OP expects his family to hate his ex-wife. If they want to keep in touch with her, that's their prerogative, but they need to do it on their own. To communicate to the OP's ex-wife through him and his current wife is just plain rude unless the three are on good terms.

What did his wife have to do with this?

well if his grandparents thought it was ok for him and his wife to give his ex gifts, she clearly must be better. therefore his wife sucks.... thats horrible :(

Not really, it could be the ex's craziness that they can identify with. I think that's a more likely case as this isn't appropriate at all.

Your life is truly ******. Time to talk to your parents and make them aware of your current wife's position in the family.

You can always tell who has no friends and will end up being an obese 50 year old virgin by who corrects insignificant spelling mistakes on a website where it doesn't even matter...

How do you know what the card said? Did you open it ? So rude. Be an adult.

To be honest, I don't see why this would be considered a FML. So what, your family likes your ex wife. I don't see anything with that what-so-ever. I have a few of my brothers' ex, much better then the new ones. I don't see anything wrong with this. Ever think that perhaps your new wife is a real bitch, with an ignorant personality? Maybe that's why your family misses the ex. Can't say that I blame them. 98% of all women in this world are ignorant bitches, anyways.

I agreed with everything you said up to the last line. It's not somehow acceptable to be misogynistic just because you're female.

Cheekers you look like a female Billy Mays

I think it should read 98% of women in America or the Western world. The rest are okay.

******' site, tryin' to edit my message, and I took too long. Anyways. For starters, #15. It's just because I'm a female. So get over yourself. 'Cause it's true. Ever see a woman that doesn't act like an ignorant bitch? Aha, maybe one in a million. #27. Thank you very much. I appreciate your kind words. You're awesome!! #28. I sure the hell did. They were delicious too. 'Cept, they did manage to give me a lil' gas. Guess I should of cut back from 98, to about 75. But oh well, I just can't resist but to eat when I'm hungry. Wouldn't wanna starve myself. =] #30, I have to agree with you! Their comments were ******' hilarious. Made me laugh my ass off so hard!

Hey, fatty. You're a dumb ****. But I'm impressed by how you've met all of the women in the world. That's a hell of an accomplishment. You must be Mrs. Claus. I see obesity is a shared thing in your family. Now please get run over by a reindeer.

Cheekers, people like you should be put down. Slowly and painfully.
Cheekers1989 0
#44. Nope, far from dumb, like half the idiots that are on here. But thanks. It is one hell of an accomplishment. Hm, Mrs Claus? I think that would be very exciting. Especially to see half the f'tards not get Christmas, for their stupidity. #48. Anyways. I probably will be put down slowly, and painfully. That is the best way to die, don't cha think? I sure do. =] Gosh, can't cha just feel the love in the air tonight. I sure can. I really appreciate all the hate. It's not everyday that I get hated on it. It's very kind of all of you. You're the best idiotic (net) haters I've ever met.

#52. I appreciate that. But, you really don't need too. I can handle their ignorance. I get a great laugh over them trying to 'put me down.' But thank you! Oh, and yes, some of the people on here are just assholes. I fit right into that category. =]

98% of people everywhere fit that category coincidentally.

The card not being in an envelope is no good reason to read it, technically. XD Please have the grace to not boast about it online. XD
quinnteh 0
Nothing he says will be good enough for you will it? He's not boasting about anything, he's just answering somebody's question of whether the card was in an envelope. OP I feel for you.

Pahaha. Even your family knows your ex is better.
