Today, my dad asked to borrow some money off me, so I said okay. Later on, he told me he'll be using it to help divorce my mom. I pretty much just helped pay for my parents' divorce. FML

Today, I was helping my mom look for some money she'd misplaced. At my wit's end, I flipped through her diary, in case she'd hidden it between the pages as she has before. Didn't find the money, but I did find out she might well be cheating on my dad. FML

Parents should never involve their children in their marital problems. Sorry OP that you have to deal with that, it's not fair to you.

After they raised op for 18 years, is the reason op even has money in the first place, and on top of it, the only thing they (parents) share together, just told them to go to hell? Wow. While I don't agree with OP having to pay, he/she shouldn't pour any salt in the wound

Today, my whole office is treating me like a pariah because I rejected the new guy who has autism. I have a history of being domestically abused so why should I date a guy who, by his own admission, loses his temper easily and attacks people? That’s right, I shouldn’t. FML
