By Anonymous - This FML is from back in 2015 but it's good stuff

Today, after constant avoidance, I saw the man who slept with my mother and caused my parents to get divorced. I desperately wanted to punch him in the face, but instead I had to smile and shake his hand as he gave me my diploma. FML

I hate to be 'that person' but I'd be more angry at your mum because she's the one who cheated? I mean, she didn't have to do that.

Oh God, that's horrible. Congratulations on your graduation, though! Maybe afterward you can beat him up in the parking lot.

To everyone saying it isn't his fault but his mother's: It was the fault of both. It happened because they both participated in it, knowing it was wrong. The mother should have remained royal to her marriage and he could have as well just found another woman who wasn't married. The FML here is that he had to be handed his diploma won with years of work from the man he hates so much after playing a role in destroying his family, although obviously he isn't the only one responsible, it's still frustrating.

Your mother slept with him, yes he may of known about her having a partner.. But your mother is the one who cheated on your dad. I hate it when people blame the other person solely.

Yeah man don't just be mad at the guy!! They are both scum.. Really your moms the *****.. So it's not the guys fault it's the latter

Nowhere in the graduation process are you required to shake anyone's hand, but good move not punching him.

Once you had the diploma safely in your hands, there was no other obstacle holding you back from printing your fist over his face.

Except, you know, the law? It would still be called assault...

I would've punched. Would have made it an AWESOME graduation.

Ever heard of the phrase, "it takes two to tango"?
