Gifted

Today, my husband's rich aunt and uncle came in town and handed us an envelope and said we hope this helps out with the student loans. Inside the envelope was just an article on new student loan procedures and how to get lower payments. FML

Today, I discovered that when my parents offered to help me pay for college, what they really meant is they would get the forms for me to apply for student loans. FML

Today, my husband announced the reason he had been working since much is because he had secretly paid off my tens of thousands of student loans. I then had to tell him I'm leaving him for his best friend. FML

Today, I called my dad to ask why my university tuition had not been paid. He said that my school was "too expensive" and he "couldn't afford it." He then asked me if I would take in his mail while he was away. He was taking his new wife to Hawaii; apparently it's beautiful this time of year. FML

Today, my father's company shut down his branch, leaving him without a job. This is followed by a letter from my school's financial aid office, saying I'm not getting a penny because my family's income level is too high. FML

If they're self-made, they didn't get rich by having everything given to them, and they don't stay rich by hemorrhaging their money to all their friends and relatives. On the other hand, if they're trust fund babies who are rich only by accident of birth, then yeah, they're douchebags.

Meaning if they're trust-fund babies, they're being douchy to do the whole "handing the envelope" bit. I don't give a shit what they do with their own money.

If they're self made, dude, you can learn so much from them, stop whining about them not giving you money and take advantage of their knowledge.

Wow, this is ******* sad. I feel nothing but contempt for you, just up and expecting everyone you deem better-off than you to just pay your way through life. Failure at life. How the **** did this get past moderation anyway? It's not a FML, it's more of an I-Fail-at-Life.
