Today, I went to my father for advice. I've been seeing a wonderful girl for the past month, and I feel terrible about it, because I already have a girlfriend. He said "Kill yourself" and that if I "can't even do that right" then to get out of his house, because he disowns me. FML

Today, I introduced my girlfriend to my dad. I thought it was a good idea at the time, at least until he took her aside for a private chat. During the chat, he told her all about my two previous marriages and advised her to "get out while you can". FML

Today, I confided to my dad that since the recent breakup with my boyfriend of 3 months, I feel down all the time and life doesn't feel worth living anymore. His loving advice was for me to "grow the fuck up and get your sentimental head out of la-la land." FML

Today, I found out why my dad doesn't want my girlfriend coming to our house anymore. Apparently, her dad used to bully him a lot during high school and he's never gotten over it. He's threatened to disown me if she comes back over here. FML

Today, I heard my boyfriend talking with my father in the backyard. I thought he was asking for my hand in marriage. He was actually telling him about his plans to break up with me. FML

You wouldn't have this problem if you hadn't cheated in the first. F your girlfriend's life for being led on by a cheating bastard.

You get no sympathy here. Your dad obviously realizes that you're a jerk.

If you are really care about either of them you will break it off with BOTH of them because they both deserve better than a cheating loser.

OP, I do have sympathy for you. You can be in love with more than one person at once, people who disagree have never been there. It sucks and no one will help you through it. Check out some polyamory sites and support systems, then come clean to your girlfriend. Tell her you still love her and you're so sorry you lied, but this may be the right thing for you now. She may learn to be okay with it in time, heck, she may even want something similar herself. You'll never know until you start being honest with everyone about what's happening and your own feelings.

Did you actually expect sympathy, OP? You cheated on your girlfriend and tried to act like you were the victim. You can't have a girlfriend and still walk around and snu snu with whoever you want. YDI
