Today, I learned my 40 year old father is marrying a girl barely a year and a half older than me. She told me not to be afraid to call her mom. I was torn between punching her in the face and vomiting. FML

That sux! And even if she wuz trying to be nice, you can't call somebody else your mom-it's not right.

As long as your Dad's new wife is of legal marrying age WTF is the issue? Yea it may be a bit weird that your step mom is only a few years older than you but if your going to be a selfish baby about it and not think maybe your dad has found someone he is happy with then I think your the one with the issue and YDI for being an immature little snot that only cares about one self and has no consideration for your Dads happiness.

I love the number of people who are getting offended by people's reactions to this post. It appears that there are quite a few middle aged men here who wish they could have (or do have) "young hot booty." Either that or we're talking multiple young men who intend to be bachelors forever and want to be with girls in their 20s until they die. Obviously they see all of these posts against the father as attacks on their person beliefs, lmfao. Not that I'm judging, that's really a personal decision. However, if you honestly don't understand why the OP is upset by this (and why other posters agree with her hatred towards the situation) then you're a moron. And for those of you who think she's being selfish, go **** yourselves. The poor girl is going to have to deal with knowing that her dad is probably attracted to many of her friends. If you knew that your parent was doing someone who's the same age as you, you'd be creeped out as well. Most (keyword being most) people here aren't disgusted because the dad is with someone so much younger than him. The whole situation's f*cked up because of the fact that he has a KID. I mean, how idiotic can you be to not realize that marrying someone the same age as your daughter is f*cking weird? And the woman he's marrying is either absolutely hilarious (although I doubt it because most of the time young women who marry older men are not the brightest) or she's a stupid bitch. Having her be a part of the family must be a terrible, terrible thing. OP: ****. Your. Life. I'm so, so, so sorry. I would probably end up doing both of the things you suggested, however using the fact that this woman wants to be your new "mom" against her would be genius. Seriously, get as much out of the situation as you can. And then, if you already haven't (and you're old enough to) move out. Who knows, maybe she'll want you out of the house and will convince your dad to pay for your new apartment or something.

LOL @ OP using the situation to get her rent paid. I like the way you think, GDinNJ. haha

If I found that one of my parents were dating/marrying someone around my age wouldn't bother me, now if it was one of my friends then that might.

# 80 has no idea what *its* talking about because it most likely has parents around the same age! i can understand why you would want to punch her in the face! She could be a gold digger if she is then she deserves more then a punch to the face!

It almosts sounds a little condescending, her telling you to call her mom....I think you need to set up some boundaries ASAP!

This is not an FML. Just say, "no...I respect my mother to much to call you that." This is happening to a lot of people in the world. Roll over your fat ass and get over it.

@OP Of course you can't call her 'mom' because that title doesn't belong to her and she's done nothing to earn it. The fact that she said that shows that daddy not only likes them young, but he likes them stupid also. If you don't want to see her again...Cause her some pain. Make her fear you. Then your father will no longer bring his young playthings around you because they'll beg him not to.

It's okay. I'm 20, my dad's 49 (as of yesterday) and his wife is....25. I understand your pain.

LOL. It would have been worse if she was 18 months younger than you.
