Today, my soon to be mother-in-law sent me a birthday present. It was a necklace for me to wear at my wedding. The pendant is a well known lesbian symbol. I'm a woman and I'm marrying her son. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my fiancé's mother gave me a beautiful cross necklace to wear for my wedding. I'm Jewish. FML
Today, my mother-in-law gave me a toaster and a fork as a wedding gift. FML
Today, I told my mom that I’m a lesbian. She was fine with it, supported me 100%, and it was a huge relief, until she followed up with, “Until you find a husband, then you’ll obviously have to stop all that.” The reason I even told her is because my girlfriend just proposed to me, and we’re engaged. FML
Today, I was bitched out by my shrew of a mother for getting engaged, to a man. She's not homophobic, but rather pissed off because gay marriage is "trendy" and she wants me to be "above that nonsense". Hurray for love. FML
Today, my husband bought me a beautiful pair of earrings for my birthday, to match the necklace he'd spent months searching for online the previous year. What necklace? He gave me a watch he found at Walmart last year. I wonder who the lucky girl with the necklace is. FML
Today, I found out that my ex gifted a special handcrafted necklace I made for him to his new girlfriend. She wears it on all her socials. 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, my fiancé told me he wants to buy an engagement ring for his mother, so that she doesn't feel left out. FML
Today, my boyfriend's mom bought us matching purity rings. FML
Today, my mother beamingly asked for my opinion on her wedding dress. She is engaged to her cousin. Conveniently, they already have the same last name. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I wonder if she realized it

What's the problem here? You explain it and don't wear it. I don't see the issue. Grow up.

Maybe she really doesn't know. I knew a woman who got a HUGE tatoo of a fairy on her back and didn't know it was the lesbian fairy until her gay sister told her...

The necklace is probably her way of saying she wants to have sex with you.

I guess she never quite accepted that she had a son instead of a daughter... I bet wearing girls' clothing got old for him.

She probably thought it looked nice and didn't know what it meant. You say it was a well-known lesbian symbol, but there's a lot of people who really don't know anything about the gay communities.

Do gays have their own symbol, too? What about straight people? Do I get a symbol, too? I want my symbol to be a smiley face with a butterfly resting on a rainbow reflected on the pupils of the smiley face. Somebody better make it happen, I don't have all day!

Dude. You post way too much. Put it all in 1 post. And the symbols used by homosexuals are, more often than not, symbols used for homoesxual-based internment camps in Nazi, Germany. It's a sort of re-claiming of the bad to make it good. Kind of how blacks have reclaimed "the n-word". Straight people don't need a symbol. People just assume you're straight. But the rainbow, butterfly, skittles, happy-face, pcp trip sounds fun, anyway. Also... iFruit? Really? Weird name.

And pieofchrist, maybe if you knew how to spell degeneres you would also know that your joke was tacky.

I'm scared to look up the lesbian symbol because this is a shared computer. I don't want people thinking I'm lesbian :$

You might have thought of that before you chose a nick like iFruit.
