Miscellaneous: Today, I moved in with my brother to save on a swanky apartment....

Today, I moved in with my brother to save on a swanky apartment. I was skeptical as to how this would work out as we fought a lot as kids. Our first big fight? Whether or not to keep his dorm-style futon complete with Return of the Jedi sheets. He's a 35-yr old physician; I'm a 28-yr old lawyer. FML

Today, despite the fact that I live with my parents and pay rent, my mom decided the best spot for my brother, his wife and one-year-old son was my bedroom. So I'm sleeping on the couch, because it would, "take too long to clean her room." FML

Today, my brother and I moved out of an apartment into a new one. We both have ADD. Whatever you now imagine what that went like, yes, it exactly went like that. FML

A few good men?

Today, I was visiting my in-laws and sharing a room with my husband's 17-year-old sister. Later that night she and her brother of 24 years started fist-fighting over an air mattress and I had to pull them off each other. The brother later berated me with, "You can't handle any pressure!" FML

With friends like these…

Today, after I moved in with my best friend a year ago, living with her and her boyfriend for over 3 months, I couldn’t handle them fighting so I moved out 9 months later. She cheated on her boyfriend with a coworker and is now moving in with me, so, "We can live like wild teenagers." We’re both 30 and I’m not single. FML

Today, I moved into my new college apartment for the next year. A 45 year old guy with a mustache in short shorts and no shirt answers the door. He will be one of my roommates. FML

Great help

Today, I just moved in with my friend and had my brother help with the move. Later that night both my brother and my friend wouldn't let me sleep because of how loud the sex was. FML

Family tension

By Anonymous - 21/11/2022 14:00

Today, it’s been a year since my brother-in-law started sleeping on our sofa. At first I had sympathy, but he hasn’t even been looking for a job, so when I found him wearing my robe, drinking my sherry, in my armchair, I evicted his ass. Now I’m the one sleeping on the sofa because my wife is mad at me. FML

Today, I found out the person that I’ve been casually seeing has decided he wants to live with me. I found this out when I asked him to go home after two weeks sleeping over, and he told me he'd already moved out of his mom’s. I sublet a single bedroom and have barely enough room for myself. FML

Today, my boyfriend and I moved into our own house. He proceeded to invite his parents to stay for the week. The same parents we've lived with for the past 5 years. FML

Today, I found out that my overprotective brother is going to move in with me when he gets out of jail. My chances of ever being in a relationship are now next to zero. FML

Shouldn't you have won the fight then? You're a lawyer. It's what you're paid to do.

Let me repeat myself, in a way: NOT ALL LAWYERS/DOCTORS ARE RICH RIGHT AWAY. As many people mentioned, loans. I'm not in college yet, but my parents and teachers constantly complain about student loans. Plus, once you're OUT of college and the extra school for training[more cha-ching] you need to find a job. Rolling in the cash? No. Newer workers aren't trusted or respected. Who would you choose- A fresh-out-of-school worker or a person with experience outside of school who you've heard of? It takes time to earn respect. I know plenty of lawyers and doctors who are just making end's meet. And NY is 10x worse. Taxes are MUCH higher and everything is more expensive. Stop with the stereotypes. My dad's a lawyer and we have trouble paying bills as well. And we live in NY, a small town, with less taxes than NYC. [assuming that's where the person lives]

If it's his futon in his room, (I'm assuming you don't sleep in the same bed) then you don't get a say in whether it is thrown away or as to how he decorates it.

Well, it is his place, so isnt he allowed to have it however he wants? unless your also paying for the place as well.

It's only a YDI if the futon & sheets are in his private space. If you decided to pool your rent for a nice place and he wants them in the living room, serving as a Star Wars themed couch, then yeah, FYL. Cuz let's face it, I'm a big Star Wars fan, but having any sheet-covered furniture kinda defeats the purpose of having a swanky apartment, no?

Waaah... Both my well educated brother and I had a silly argument over juvenile sheets since we're sharing an apartment. How is this an FML??? Are you expecting people to feel sorry for you?? This is like some poor little rich girl typing up an FML for chipping a nail. If that was such an FML moment, imagine what happens when you have a REAL problem.
