Thanks, I feel better!

By anon - This FML is from back in 2015 but it's good stuff - United States - Port Saint Lucie

Today, I told my grandma my boyfriend had cheated on me. She told me that it was my fault for not straightening my hair, and for gaining a few pounds. FML

Grandmas can be really tough sometimes :/

He didn't break up with her, he cheated on her, which is much worse. I'm sorry OP, cheating is always the cheater's fault, and your granny should have been a little more sensitive to your feelings.

Why do people say it's okay for elderly people to be rude? It isn't, it was a mean ting to say and I'm sorry op.

Grandmas can be evil at times. I just laugh it out when mine does.

what she said was olain mean and shouldnt have mattered

sounds like something my grandma tells me too often. that if i dont dress up more and put on more make up my fiancé is going to leave me for someone prettier. sure helped my ego

It's seems like its her fault for not feeding you enough...hair straightening that shouldn't matter...

If she gained a few pounds it was probably a tiny bit her fault, her boyfriend is a douche but she didn't take care of herself and found someone that probably did. Does that justify the boyfriend's dick attitude? No. Probably a two way story.

Your gram didn't mean to mean to lower your self-esteem. She just spoke as she was thought in her time, where a man was never to blame for cheating. Ps: cheater once cheater for EVeR, ex the boyfriend or this would be a regular thing
