Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Put your foot down
Today, my boyfriend and I moved into our own house. He proceeded to invite his parents to stay for the week. The same parents we've lived with for the past 5 years. FML

Today, I saw the blueprints for my family's new house. My room is half the size of the room next to it. The room next to it is my step mom's walk-in closet. FML

Just no!
Today, after I just bought a house that is pretty good and suits all our needs for space, my in-laws moved in because they ran into financial troubles. Guess who is stuck with all the extra expenditures? FML

Congratulations…?
Today, after our housing offer was accepted, I told my parents. The only response was, “That’s a much nicer house than I had when I got married, I hope you can afford furniture.” Thanks mom. FML

Pure evil
Today, we wanted to buy a bigger house just up the street from our current house so all three of our kids could have their own rooms, but we were outbid… by my mother in law, so now we’re stuck in our too small house even longer, and the evil old bitch is now close enough to visit us every day. FML

You snooze, you lose
Today, my fiancé and I toured our dream home. I was so excited about it that I posted all kinds of pictures of it on Facebook. My boss's daughter just called and said she loved my pictures so much that she made an offer on the house. We were one week away from making an offer. FML

It's like my dad used to say... before you get married take a nice long look at their family because you'll be stuck with them too. wise man.

You forgot the three rules of dream real estate: 1) Dream location 2) Dream location 3) Dream location

Her husband was thinking "if we ever get a divorce, at least she won't fight me for the house...."

Not true my step mom got her home after her divorce, and she and my father are right next door to her ex-husbands parents. It was actually a nice thing because my step siblings got to grow up with their grandparents without having to go through their dad. My parents also had a clean divorce no court involved, my dad just gave my mom the house.

You're lucky to have such great parents who were able to put their differences aside. But the OP said this was an FML so I doubt she would want to stay.

And you agreed to that, because?

More than likely because the land was free

Although you wrote it very crudely, communicate with your spouse. Your opinions matter too! Good luck ever saying you're busy or having alone time anymore. Best way to do it is to out-annoy them so they stop themselves!

Depends of what kind of in laws they are. Look on the bright side when you guys have kids you have free babysitters and that will save you a bunch of money. Also make sure you bed room in on the opposite side of their house so you don't have to worry about them looking in when you do the nasty

There's a reason my husband and I live in a city that is two hours from his parents.

Presumably you had some choice in where you built...

So how exactly did that happen? You said you were building your dream home. How long have you been married? I mean had you really not been to your in-laws house?
