Today, my husband and I decided to take a romantic trip to the beach. We got pulled over, and shortly thereafter he was arrested. Just so happens you can't miss child support payments for your twelve year old daughter without getting a warrant. He has a daughter? We've been married for 14 years. FML

Today, my husband was arrested on 2 felony charges in a sting. We've been married 5.5 years, had almost enough money for a down payment on a house, were trying to get pregnant, and had a non-refundable trip to London planned. We are now broke and on the verge of divorce. FML

Today, I got a phone call from my husband in jail. He was detained for statutory rape. The girl was his 15 year-old coworker at McDonald’s. He’s 42. I can’t tell which is worse, the fact that we have a daughter the same age, or that he actually wanted me to bail him out. FML

Today, I got pulled over for having an expired registration. I also found out my husband hasn't been paying for my car insurance. Luckily, I didn't get arrested because I had my baby with me. They towed my car and gave me 2 tickets and a court date. Oh, and the cop sent me a friend request. FML

Today, we missed our flights to our dream honeymoon destination, which we were lucky to get with so many flight cancellations, because my selfish stepdaughter anonymously called the airline to report us for drug smuggling, all because I married her dad this afternoon. FML

Today, I found out my husband got my 22 year-old daughter pregnant. Not only that, he’s drained our savings on her including a new iPhone and Macbook, designer clothes and handbags, etc. His defense, in all seriousness, was, "She’s not even my biological daughter, chill out." FML

Today, my longtime partner had a mental breakdown and broke into my home. After forcefully having to get him out of my house and dealing with Police all morning, my 16-year-old daughter decided to tell me that she's pregnant. She thought one hour after a break in was the right time to tell me. FML

Today, I found some charges on my credit card for two round trip tickets to Las Vegas. Turns out my daughter and her stoner, unemployed boyfriend stole my credit card and flew to Vegas over the weekend to get married. I paid for my daughter's elopement. FML

Fumbled

By Dean - 23/07/2024 03:00 - United States

Today, the cops showed up to my house and served me a child support order from the girl I had a one-night stand with, and who'd promised me she would abort the baby. All this was two years ago. My wife of three years was in the house and heard everything. She packed up her things and told me she’ll be calling her attorney. FML

Today, my husband sat me down to tell me he’s filing for divorce as he’s fallen out of love with me and loves my 19 year-old daughter (his step-daughter). Furthermore, I’m off the lease when it expires next month so they can live together. We have a 2 month-old son. He replied, “OK, and? I’ll pay child support.” FML

Today, I had to go get my fiancé's car so it wouldn't get impounded after he was arrested at 12 a.m. and charged with a felony. I just got out of prison in March, and we get married next week. FML

Hey #22 thanks for the recap, because I forgot just how retarded I am and that I don't comprehend things that I read unless some ass hole retypes it out in whatever way he sees fit

That's not how it works. Unless she wants to risk taking more money away from the 12yo daughter. Child support can only equal up to half of a person's paycheck...divided by the number of children they have. Alimony is the way to go on this one. =]

Actually, it wouldn't take ANY money away from the first child. She would get less child support than the 1st because the 1st is... well... 1st! When they calculate child support, other ones are calculated into how much they make. So say the dad is paying 300 in child support to Mom A and makes 1300 a month. Well, Mom B would see that income as 1000 a month and gets child support from that while Mom A gets the moolah straight from the 1300.

I so don't agree with all these statements. Yea I'm sure it majorly sucks if after 14 years of marriage you find out that your husband has a 12-year-old kid. I can't even begin to imagine how much this must hurt. But this is how it could have happened: They get married. 2 years later he cheats, it's a one time thing, a horrible mistake that he really regrets, maybe he was drunk or whatever(of course nothing really justifies cheating...BUT)...he stays with his wife, hides the cheating from her, finds out the other woman is pregnant and starts paying child support once the baby is born...the main point is though, after that the OP and her husband have OBVIOUSLY been a rather happily married couple for the next TWELVE years... So I wouldn't scream "divorce him now"...they might be able to work through it.

I see your point #99 but he hid this for twelve years that means he looked her in the eye for twelve years (unless he just found out about the kid) and lied to her everyday. he vowed to be honest no matter what it is. even if he's really sorry for it, I'm mean he made the mistake so he pays the consequences he's a grown man time to act like one. especially if he loves her. it's always better to tell someone the truth sooner rather than later ( or twelve years later) when now she probably can't even trust him ever again. I mean what if he has other kids out there or has done worst than this. she'll never know when he's lying or being honest because he obviously is a really good liar.
