Today, I was reading a book in bed when my dad came to check whether or not I was asleep. To avoid any conversation, I pretended that I was. Turns out he was just checking whether he and my mom could have sex while I was fast asleep. I couldn't plug my ears in time. FML

Today, I pretended to be asleep when my mom and her best friend came home because I was tired as hell and I didn't want to be around them. I was then treated to a loud conversation about my mom's first time with a woman through our paper-thin walls. FML

Today, I got permission from my parents for my boyfriend to stay over. Things got intimate, and I tried my hardest not to make too much noise. However, while having a post-sex cuddle, we heard my parents in the next room muttering about my "faking". FML

Today, while driving home with my parents. I pretended to be asleep so mum wouldn't talk to me. They then took this time to describe what they were going to do to each other when they got home. In full detail. FML

Today, I was sleeping in my bed when I woke up in horror to see that my 34-year-old cousin, who was spending the night, was watching me sleep. Once he noticed that I was awake, he quietly left the room. I told my mom, who then told me not to tell anyone and pretend that it never happened. FML

Today, I snuck downstairs to watch a midnight movie. One moment I'm trying to plug my headphones in, in the dark, and the next my dad's beating the shit out of me with a baseball bat. Turns out he snuck down after me for a midnight snack and thought I was a burglar disconnecting the TV. FML

Today, I was playing with my phone after midnight, and I kept getting calls from a withheld number. The guy just breathed heavily and wouldn't speak. When the third call came, I asked "who the hell are you?" The call ended, and my dad yelled from outside my door: "ME! Now go to sleep!" FML

Today, my insomnia started back up again. It was too late to get something to help me sleep so I was lying there wondering what I should do. I decided to listen to some ambient music. It helped a lot, but when I was about to fall asleep my parents decided to start doing 'it'. FML

Today, my boyfriend sneaked into my room, not knowing I wasn't home. It would have been great, except my dad went in my room to put laundry away. FML

Today, my dad reactivated a digital clock we had lying around, and accidentally set an alarm on it. For 1 a.m.. So guess who went hunting for that noise in the middle of night. And guess who banished the thing to the living room, then forgot about it, and slept on the sofa in said living room. Or tried to. FML

well at least he had the courtesy to check if you were up or not. Next time just have that 30 second conversation with your father and you can avoid this again.

Why didn't I think of that? I'll just completely change the thickness of my walls with that easy do-it-yourself kit they sell online...

You couldn't plug your ears in time? Did they have sex in your room?

That happened to me when I was in high school. Now I'm 53, and still can remember it, like it was yesterday. Sorry, op, but you can't un-hear that.

I over heard my parents too when I was younger. I asked my mom at the breakfast table the next morning, if she was okay and why she was "crying" last night? I can still remember my dad's ear to ear smirk like it happened yesterday. :P

I'm sorry you had to hear that, but imagining that in my head had me laughing so hard.

I don't understand why you couldn't just have a short conversation with your dad, is he really that bad of a guy?

Do you ALWAYS want to talk to your parents? I do what the OP does all the time. Sometimes you just dont want to talk to people.

I lost my parents at a pretty young age, so I guess I just envy the fact that people can still talk to theirs and they 'pretend to be asleep'

Conversation is actually over-rated by a factor of 20 million.

You couldn't plug your ears in time? Did he run back to his room already naked and erect and just dive straight into your mum?

Maybe he checked on OP in order to get an erection...

I'm with 44 be thankful that you have parents who still 'enjoy each others company' rather than the many very unhappily married couples out there! It's not like it's a foreign concept that parents have sex... You did come from the very same act!
