Texting, Parents and Love: Mistaken identity

Mistaken identity

By fmlfmlfml - 20/07/2009 16:03 - United States

Today, my boyfriend and I slept together. In the middle of the night, he saw my phone receiving a text from someone saying, "Hey baby, I missed you so much! I'm going to be visiting in a couple of days, hope to see you again, I love you!" He got mad and left my house. It was my dad in Ohio. FML

Today, I was using my dad's cell because I had broken mine. I was texting my boyfriend all day when my dad needed his phone back. I forgot to tell my boyfriend that my dad would be using the phone. My boyfriend then texted graphically what he wanted to do to my dad. FML

Today, I came home early, and my boyfriend's car was in my driveway. Inside, he was talking to my parents. He walked right past me and left. My mother then says, "He wanted me to tell you it's over." FML

Today, my boyfriend picked me up to take me on a date. Just as we were about to drive away, my dad ran out of the house in his underwear and started yelling that he'd kill my boyfriend if I wasn't back home within the hour. FML

Get out

Today, I came back to my boyfriend's house where I've been staying to find all my things thrown outside, ruined, including my entire CD collection, textbooks and clothes cut up. All because I had left my phone there and had got a text from a guy saying, "Hi, how have you been?" FML

Today, my ex broke up with me because his mom didn't like me. He was visiting me across the country at the time, and still had a few days left. He had the audacity to still ask to sleep with me. FML

Today, I was at AT&T getting my phone fixed. At one point, the salesman said, "You should see this." It was a text message from some girl apologizing for sleeping with my boyfriend for the past four months, and telling me that they were moving him out of our apartment. FML

Ouch, that sucks! He should have given you a chance to explain :( Seriously, who pressed "YDI"? How does she deserve that in any way?

That just seems weird that your dad says "Hey Baby"... But still, not really a FYL. Show him the sender; he'll be apologizing like crazy.

Your dad calls you baby? Honestly, sometimes I wonder if people lie on FML because they know their significant other will read it and hopefully even fall for it.

My dad calls me baby still and I'm 22. I call my kids baby. Stop being a retard and taking it the wrong way.

It's not unusual at all. Baby can also mean "child" as in "my baby girl". Just because people started using it to refer to their loved one doesn't make it unusual.

My dad calls me and my sisters babe...... They're similar but either way I don't see what's wrong with that........

So, is the FML because you just realized you gave it up to a moronic ********? And her father saying "hey baby" is perfectly fine.

Better off without him. What is he doing reading your phone messages? That's an invasion of privacy. Do you let him read your email too, and open your mail for you? But your dad calling you "baby" when you're old enough to have sex, that is creepy as well.

My sentiments exactly. My husband doesn't even touch my mail/messages, unless I ask him to and I wouldn't read his private conversations either. FYL for having a b/f who doesn't trust you a bit.

You are better off without him. Because he is either paranoid or stupid, or both - I mean, what name do you have your dad listed under on your phone? Should that not have been a big tip-off it wasn't a random boyfriend?

Some people refer to their fathers by their first name. And since they don't live together, that's probably the case. So, her boyfriend might have seen "Michael" or "Rick" or something of that nature as the contact, so I don't blame him for getting pissed.
