Today, in the middle of telling my mother about my engagement, she suddenly broke down in tears about her problems at work and her loveless marriage, and abruptly hung up on me. FML
I agree, your life sucks 46 042
You deserved it 4 491

nana_star tells us more.

Wow! I can't believe this got published! To fill you guys in, my stepdad is just going through a rough time and it's taking its toll on my mom. She is better now and congratulated us both! Thanks to everyone who congratulated us as well! (I'm not sure if FML will show my OP-ness because I'm using the mobile app. If it doesn't, I promise I'm not a troll) :)

And you need your mom to be happy or your not happy? Really this is a FML?? Oh my mommy was not happy.... Oh no.

Congrats, it will be the most stressful yet best time of your life together OP!

Sorry OP, but I feel more sorry about your mom. Sometimes hearing about other's success make us feel worse about our own bad. I know it's bit what you expected, but she is your mother so comfort her. She most likely is still happy for you though. Congratulations, btw!
