Today, while opening up to a few friends about how I was sexually abused as a child, one of them blurted "Pics or it didn't happen." How did the others react? With outrage? No, just with awkward chuckling. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, a guy made fun of sexual assault victims, and laughed when he heard they’re getting money and support. He also said I look like his next victim. I hit him, unapologetically. My friends told me to apologise, and that he’s really a great guy. No longer my friends. Talk shit, get hit. FML
Today, I told my friends I was kissed by a girl. They said "Yeah, probably by your mom." The sad thing is, they were right. FML
Today, I laughed at a joke in a group chat. No one else reacted. After five minutes, I realized I’d replied to a message from last week. I had to also pretend I hadn't noticed and sat in silence. FML
Today, I was in a support group talking about how my sister and I were raised in a cult. Never one to be outdone, the loud mouth of the group piped up and scoffed, “Oh please! If it didn’t make the news and no one died, then it wasn’t a cult!” Sorry I wasn’t murdered. It was still abusive as fuck. FML
Today, I decided to open up to my friends about losing my dad last year. To my horror, all they could do was laugh at and mock me, all because I said that he "unalived" himself. FML
Today, I was peppered with questions about my swollen eye and if I'd gotten into a fight. I couldn't bring myself to admit that I'd been brutally beaten into submission by a doorknob. FML
Today, at a mind-numbingly boring support session, everyone was talking about their hardships. One guy was talking about losing his leg in a car accident. I was half-asleep and asked without thinking, "Did you ever find it?" I almost shat my pants at the roomful of death glares that followed. FML
Today, after weeks of therapy for severe depression, my therapist thought it would be helpful to confess my deepest problems to my friends, to prove that it was alright to trust people. I did. They laughed. Hard. FML
Today, I was telling my friends a story. I added a few "embellishments" to make it more intense. One my friends piped up with, "I was with you, half of what you just said wasn't true". It's now all over Facebook and I'm known as "The Bullshitter". FML
Today, someone was making jokes and everyone started laughing, so I laughed. He then proceeded to look me dead in the eye and go, "What are you laughing at?" I started stuttering and mumbled back quietly, "I don't know, what are you laughing at?" He goes, "I'm not laughing" and then they all stared at me weird. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

AAAAND this is why people don't tell friends sensitive information

37, if you can't tell your friends sensitive information, they really don't deserve to be called "friends" :P

Agreed. You trusted them with something about you that they should never joke about but they went ahead and did it anyways. Get friends who are sympathetic and not total douchebags.

Your profile picture goes perfectly with the comment.

I just hope that it was a very unfortunate accident and that your friend didn't mean to say that. Regardless, FYL OP.

No one makes a comment like that by "accident"

Well, logically nobody would make that comment intentionally. Even if you are just pretending to be someones friend I can't imagine you would find that an appropriate comment.

Maybe they were uncomfortable and didn't know how to ease he tension. I've done stupid shut in situations like that, but not that bad.

maybe they spoke before thinking about it first.

I agree with you #5. Sometimes the filter just isn't on, and inappropriate things just kinda slip out. Been there, done that. The friend wasn't trying to be insensitive. And they were probably trying to laugh it off because it was so awkward, and they didn't know what else to do. You never know.

i do get that although wildly inapropriat kids tend to not handle serious situations well

That's truly awful, OP. I'm sorry you had to go through that. And those friends ought to be ashamed of themselves!

That's disgusting! You definitely need new friends OP. Maybe look into joining a support group. They have lots on Facebook and you would be able to talk to people who have experienced what you have. It would surely help to be able to talk about it with like-minded people who aren't scumbags like your friends.

damn that's kind of harsh. even if they where trying to be funny that's not something you joke about. FYL.

That is actually the worst I'm so sorry OP I hope you're getting the help you need

tbh that's horrible for them to say and you should honestly get new friends who won't be assholes like them.
