Today, I finally told my dad that I hate his girlfriend. I said her daughter's a complete whore, and her son is annoying as fuck. Turns out they were in the house and within earshot, ready to throw me a birthday party. FML

Well, I hope you felt like a complete bitch, because you acted like a royal one.

I feel like most of the people with these YDI opinions have never been through parents divorcing and then had a parent date someone that sucks. Could he have maybe gone about it better? Yeah, doesn't mean he shouldn't have told him how he feels. Also... OP is likely young enough to still be living at home making opinions about everyone valid to be shared. If you hate possible new step brothers and sisters that's a big deal. And a birthday party doesn't necessarily mean anything... It's likely dad's idea and everyone is there because they are obliged to. Not because they want to. Then again, the OP could also be 17 and lashing out because daddy is trying to replace mommy as well. But we'll never know that.

I remember when my dad almost married a woman who I went to Sunday school with...and she proceeded to try to lay down the law like she was our mother. She was capable if being cool but definitely a bitch 90% of the time.

I completely agree that OP should tell his dad how he feels, however I think he should have gone about it a different way. He should have asked to speak to him when he had some time and then state how he didn't like the girlfriend or the kids in a polite way and let him know why. He has to be considerate of his dad's feelings as well. Calling them names will only make the dad defensive and probably won't change anything.

Again... We have to assume the OP is young enough to live at home or none of this would matter all that much. So we'll say 18 or younger for the sake of argument. College students aren't (generally) home enough or at all for it to matter that much and if he's graduated high school, lives at home, and isn't going to college... He can choose to leave. That being said, teenagers have been clinically proven poor decision making skills and are, relative to someone 25+ extremely emotional. Not saying that makes his approach acceptable but you have to accept things as what they are to a degree. Or maybe soon to be mom v2.0 did something to piss him off and it was the first time he saw his dad since it happened. As almost always with an FML, we only get a small portion of the story that makes it difficult to ascertain what the circumstances surrounding it are... So I stand by my original statement, he could've gone about it better, but at his (likely) age range it's to be expected, and he was 100% in the right bringing his concerns to his dad about all parties involved.

It's quite sad that this didn't get many thumbs up. I admire your ability to step back and see several angles. I agree. Cheers!

Nobody's saying he shouldn't tell his dad how he feels. But he didn't need to be so insulting; it makes it sound like he's just whining and name-calling rather than expressing legitimate concerns.

I had to click both buttons. F your life for being stuck there, but you deserve it for popping off completely unaware.

You didn't even expect them to be there for your birthday? Don't worry you life will be hell for a week or so

mm there is a silver lining here, at least they know what you think now so if ur lucky they will try and address their behavior towards you if not and they have a short temper ur kinda phucked :)

Your word choice was rude as ****, you know. "*****" and "annoying as ****"? Really? You can tell your dad you don't like 'em, but you shouldn't spit hatred, he obviously likes and maybe loves her.
