Loyalty card

Today, my parents lectured me about the importance of family, and how forgiveness is necessary. This came after I stopped speaking to my sister. I cut her out of my life after she slept with a second boyfriend of mine. Apparently, it’s up to me to "be the bigger person." FML

So selfish

By Anonymous - 26/04/2020 14:00

Today, my family yelled at me for being a "selfish disappointment." My crime? Not being able to help my sister's boyfriend do his homework while I'm working on my class finals. FML

Today, I fought with my sister. We're both adults, but I cussed her out and called her an idiot or something, and a bitch. I’m trying my best to get therapy for this shit. I have found nothing that helps me quit acting this way. I grew up with it in my parents' behavior. FML

Today, I told my mom that having watched my sister ruin her life having kids who grew into brats with criminal records before their teens, I refused to ruin my life the same way and will be childless. I then turned to leave and they were in the doorway, my sister and her two brats. I got slapped. FML

Today, my sister got in a screaming argument with my girlfriend, who then dumped me. My whole family started celebrating. Apparently, they staged the argument to get rid of her because no one liked her, and I should be grateful they did me such a big favor. FML

Today, my mom and siblings got into a fight. Being generally quiet and non-confrontational, I stayed out of it. Shortly thereafter, I was yelled at by my mother for being "ungrateful" and "disrespectful." I still don't know what I did wrong. FML

Devious

Today, my manipulative mother got upset and started ignoring me. All because she lectured me about doing too much for other people, then proceeded to tell me all her problems, and I actually took her advice. Other people's problems are not my responsibility to fix. FML

Don't give up

Today, after finally putting my foot down and trying to kick my husband out for his alcoholism, I got a lecture from his parents about how much of a piece of shit I am for "giving up" on their son. I've been trying to get him to get help for the past three years. FML

Cruel

By Gayafnow - 02/08/2021 02:01

Today, my sister outed me to my very conservative parents as retaliation for not taking her to get McDonald’s at 2 a.m. last night. My mom gave me an ultimatum, either "stop the lesbian shit" or get the fuck out of her house. My sister smirked through the whole thing. FML

Scapegoat

By Kitty T - 10/12/2023 05:00 - Australia - Townsville

Today, my mum's response to my psycho sister being angry and threatening my partner, was that I should make her angry at me since she needs someone to hate, and I'm the default, so I handle it better anyway. This was after I asked her to get my sister professional help, and she denied the need. FML

your sister is a bitch faced **** and your parents are idiots for telling you to be the bigger person and just get over it when they should be telling your sister to keep her undies up and her legs closed. you are allowed to be angry and hurt over this. personal advice is remove your parents as well.

Yeah... That is the silver lining. Over time I was actually glad I found my husband cheating after just a few weeks of marriage. Like, thank god I didn't waste years on that asshole!!! But it wasn't with my sister. I think that would scar me for life and I don't think I could see the good side. Hopefully OP stays strong, gets these awful people out of her life to make room for those that actually understand loyalty and morality.

Try not to be mad at your parents. They just don’t want a fractured family, especially if their children are grown and they are up in age. Their hearts where in the right place just not so much the execution.

Cut them out too. Seriously they don't have your best interest in mind at all, I love how people think you NEED to have toxic family in your life. My wife and her sister are estranged, she hasn't told me why it's a sore subject and I haven't pushed. I Know 6 months ago sis knocked on our door, Wife answered, Decked her and sent her on her way.
