Today, I asked my mom if she thought I was straight. She looked at me and said, "Well, that's really up to you honey. But your father and I would still love you." I was asking if she thought I had parked straight. FML

Today, my mom called me into the living room to say that she had something important to tell me. She then explained how she and my dad had "talked things over" and wanted me to know that they accept me and love me no matter what. Apparently my mom thinks I'm lesbian. I'm not. FML

Today, I finally thought that my mother was okay with me being a lesbian. Then, over dinner, she turns to me and says, "So, do you still think you like girls, or are you going to start being normal again?" FML

Today, I was leaving to go over to a friend's and my parents suddenly ask if I'm gay. I reply that no, I'm bisexual. My mom then asks if I've ever made out with someone of the same sex and I say yes. She turns to my dad and says 'I told you so. You owe me $20'. My parents bet on my sexuality. FML

Today, my parents bought me a wine glass with "Who needs a man?" painted all over it. Cute, until after dinner my mom looked me in the eyes and asked with complete sincerity, "Kara, are you gay?" My parents tried to get me to come out. I'm straight. FML

Today, I decided to introduce my girlfriend to my parents by telling them that we were gonna have a very special guest for dinner. While my mom was preparing the meal she asked, "What does he like?" I'm straight. My parents thought different. FML

Today, after weeks of thinking and playing every outcome possible in my head, I told my parents I'm gay. My dad nodded and didn't even look up from his book; my mom told me to go to the doctor if it starts to itch. FML

Today, my dad seemed moody, so to lift his spirits, I told him I loved him. He just snorted, "You gay or something, boy?" Really mature, dad, really mature. FML

Today, after having a long talk with my mother about LGBT rights, she told me that she was totally open. I felt completely relieved, being gay myself. Seconds later, she said, "But not for you. I want you to find me a nice girl that can give me lots of grandkids." FML

decision? you honestly think there is a choice involved? That's like choosing whether or not to have vision. Or hearing. there is no choice involved. Research says that's more true for guys than for girls though.

You asked your mom a question which sounds like you are confused about your sexuality (by mistake but thats how it sounded anyways) Your mom says she wont judge you, she wont decide for you, and that she and your father will accept and love you no matter what you do with your life. A week ago, my dad told me he doesnt love me and tried to play it off by shouting at me for failing college. (as if it was my fault) **** YOUR life ?? No, **** YOU. You want to whine and pretend you have problems, do it somewhere else, or go talk to your parents, since you can probably talk to them about stuff.

I feel like this isn't an FML at all. Your mom was supportive and caring even if she misunderstood. Go through and read what some other parents have said, you're lucky hun.

How is this an FML???? Your poor mom, faced with a question like that! Obviously you should have been more clear; I would have thought you were asking if you came across as straight vs. gay, too! At least you know that your parents will love and accept you no matter what! This should be an accidental "OMG my life isn't ****** at all!", not an FML.
