Family and Love: Oh, hai Mark

Oh, hai Mark

By Jenn - 03/07/2013 02:39 - United States - Atlanta

Today, I saw my older sister for the first time in three years. We hadn't spoke since I found out that she was the woman my college boyfriend left me for. Unfortunately, our reunion was fueled by her two-year-old son's desire to meet his dad. My husband. FML

Today, my dad introduced me to my half-sister. He'd only recently found out that he had another daughter by another woman, and had only just met her. She and I have been in the same class in school for the past three years. FML

Today, I was meeting my boyfriend's family for the first time. The minute I stepped in the door his mother hit me in the face and kicked me out because I was "the slut her husband cheated on her with." My older sister and I look much alike. Too much alike. FML

Thanks for the memories

Today, while shopping, I bumped into a guy I knew in high school. He went on about he heard I'd got married, looked like I'd had a baby, and that, "she looks just like you!" The kid was my niece, and my husband broke up with me 2 years ago. Thanks for bringing that up. FML

Today, I met my sister's fiancé. I would have been happier for her if he hadn't been mine a month ago when I introduced them. FML

Today, I found out that after reuniting with an old boyfriend, getting close with his two year old son, and moving closer to him to properly be a part of their lives, he got back together with his ex wife. FML

Family snapshot

Today, our family reunion began with my sister calling my brother's current crazy girlfriend by his last crazy girlfriend's name and ended with my dad telling my adopted niece that he wanted a family picture without her in it, but she could be in the next one. FML

Succession

Today, I reunited with my mother and my sisters after a long time. I actually walked out of the reunion, too, after I drove 800 km away, only to find out that they're fighting over my late father's inheritance. I had vanished from my family because they were always possessive and crawling up my ass every time. FML

Misplaced fury

By Anonymous - 27/10/2023 15:00

Today, I was visited by a high school friend who lives in another state. She was furious because I got married a few months ago, and she kinda had feelings for me. I had to ask her to leave. Here's the funny thing: she's been married for 4 years and they have a son, and she didn't even invite me to her wedding back then. FML

Today, my estranged, alcoholic father decided to tell me I have a sister. After 30 mins of him describing how beautiful she is and how much we look alike and how she has lived one town away from me her entire life, I was excited to the point of tears. Too bad she died a year ago. Thanks dad. FML

She's a home wrecking ***** and your husband is a piece of shit too. I'm sorry to hear this. She seems pretty dead set on ruining your life.

It seems that your sister is that pathetic and desperate that she can't find a partner for herself that you havent been with. FYL OP

Hi, unfortunately, this is me, the OP. I had to make an account just to comment.... Just so you know, not my whole family is messed up, just my sister. I have a twin sister and a little sister, and they're some of the best people anyone could know. To clarify, my college boyfriend Craig broke up with me when I was 21, so he could pursue a relationship with a woman he'd been seeing for several months (turns out, they met at my family reunion!). I got married three years ago, when I was 28, and shortly after, I found out my sister Marissa was Craig's mistress. Since Craig and I were extremely serious and thinking about getting married, I cut off all contact with her, but a few months in, my husband said he saw her at the grocery store. I never would have dreamed that he slept with her. That's how her son is two. She's asked my husband to move to Los Angeles from Atlanta, where we live, so he can be a part of her son's life. I'd really like him to be a part of our one-year-old's life as well. My husband says it was just once, but he saw how much I struggled with finding out about her the first time. I'm willing to see if we can work through this, but it's looking very, very bleak. Thanks for your well wishes, I'll try my best to keep you updated.

I think you and your sister need some family therapy to work out why she's trying to take your serious significant others away from you. Sleeping with them is one thing; asking YOUR husband to move across the country to be with HER is even worse. Did you two ever get along?

Thank you for following up. I couldn't figure out if you'd married your husband before or after your sister became pregnant. FYL indeed.

Oof. The sister is a no-brainer but you really need to ditch your husband too. Even in the very unlikely case he's telling you the truth now, you cannot trust him ever again. Sorry.

Thanks for the follow up. Again that really really sucks and I'm so sorry. I can't believe she would even ask your husband to move for her. Maybe in a really sick way she did it to get back in your life again.
