Money, Parents and Miscellaneous: Second best

Second best

Today, my mom admitted that the only reason she took me out for lunch was because she felt guilty over going on a massive shopping spree for my sister while I was forced to stay home alone. I thanked her for the Wendy's meal anyway. FML

Today, I told my mom she made me feel unloved my whole life. She called my sister and apologized. FML

Today, my mom and I went out to a fancy and expensive restaurant per her request; she told me it was her treat. After we ate our meals and the large check came, she excused herself to the bathroom. She didn't come back. I was dine-and-dashed by my own mother. FML

Today, my mom complained that I never do anything nice for her, so while out shopping I bought her favorite chocolate bar. When I got home, she screamed at me because she’s on a diet. FML

Today, I finally broke down and told my mom that I'd relapsed with my eating disorder. She told me to quit whining and eat a burger, because she didn't want to pay for another therapy session. FML

Hello?

Today, I found out that my parents forgot to invite me out to eat with them. I found this out when my mom invited my sister right in front of me. FML

Communication breakdown

Today, my mom, who still refuses to get a mobile phone, was late coming home, so I was sent to buy dinner. Dad wanted seafood. I picked it up and returned, only to find Mom was already back with McDonald's. Dad insisted we eat that, despite my protests and MY money I'd spent on HIS request. I made sure Mom saw the Verizon ads. FML

Today, it's again one of many times my mom dropped me off at the mall to hang out with friends. Since I have no friends, I shop by myself and always tell her I had "so much fun". FML

Today, my mom proved to me that there was favoritism between me and my siblings. My mom made me use my money to buy everyone dinner, but when my brother wanted to buy himself food, my mom asked him if he was gonna buy me and our sister some too, he said, "No, I don’t want to" and she said, "That’s fine."

Cruel

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

Today, my vegan step-mom found out I ate at McDonald's yesterday. She gave me hell and asked me how it feels to give money to "murderers". All while my dad sat quietly by because he's too whipped to speak his mind. It wasn't even her house a month ago. FML

Do something bad to her and blame it on your sister. She gets in trouble and now you're the new fave;)

85 & 96 - Stfu, Kayla has had enough people being rude to her over FML. if you're going to be like this to people over FML, gtfo. You probably wouldn't say the same thing to her in person. Grow the **** up.

Being a girl (in my case) sucks ass. I can't get my dream job of serving our country as a member of the pararescue team or have anything to do with combat in the air force because "women are delicate creatures and we can't take the pain or emotional stress" sorry I had to say that.

Da fuq? Tell whoever you're rambling about that you don't give a ****, and will do what you want. If women were delicate, they wouldn't allow them in the service.

Disgruntled siblings unite. I'm the oldest and my parents (mostly mother) have always fawned over my middle brother, while me and to a lesser extent my youngest brother might as well be next door neighbors. I probably should have gotten over this 15 years ago but it still burns my ass to think about.
