Today, I found out that even though my parents have been married for 21 years, our "family friend," who routinely accompanies us on family vacations, completes their threesome. Everyone in town has known for years, except for me and my older brother. FML

Oh wow...what do you even say to that? Well, when it comes time to leave home, I suggest you and your brother go far away XP.

OK - things like this - you don't need to know about your folks. Best thing is to realise it is their issue to deal with - nothing you can do. Just be glad you haven't walked in on them!

YDI for not realizing that parents can and do have sex lives too. Just because you know what sex is doesn't mean they're going to stop having it--and if they're into threesomes then that's their thing. Who are you to judge?

Why the hell do you care so much about what your parents do and don't do in the bedroom that you had to make it an FML? It's their lives, and I don't see why you seem to think you and your older brother should have known about it.

How this a FML? I would be glad to be in the dark about it xD Then they can have sex all they want and I won't be plagued with visuals but I think its funny the whole town knows, I wonder how many parents actually like you or just pretend xDD

I am confused! Did they ask you and your brother to join in? Your parent's have sex, and apparently think it is still the 1970's... who cares..

why does having a threesome mean they "still think it's the 1970s"?

The threesome isn't what makes it seem like the 1970's. This isn't some random guy they are "hooking up with" but instead a long-time **** buddy who they invite into their marriage and their family - it's more indicative of the 1970's sexually expressive culture in the US.

I have to disagree with all the people saying it's not the OP and her brother's business. It certainly IS their business, if this third person is going on FAMILY trips and stuff. If they were having sex with the parents discreetly, and the kids didn't know about them at all (or minimally) it would be different. But the parents chose to bring this person into their kids' lives too, making this person part of the family. Therefore they should have been open with the kids about who this person really is. They don't have to get into sex stuff, but they could at least explain that the person is part of the relationship, part of the family, etc, instead of just having this mystery person always hanging around, confusing the kids.
