Today, I got a call from my parents that they have decided to get a divorce. My brothers and I just shelled out $5,000 each and spent months planning their 50th Anniversary party that was supposed to be next month. FML

Today, after 25 years of marriage, my parents decided to get a very nasty and extremely expensive divorce. Using my college tuition to pay for it. FML

Today, my dad asked to borrow some money off me, so I said okay. Later on, he told me he'll be using it to help divorce my mom. I pretty much just helped pay for my parents' divorce. FML

Today, my wedding is scheduled for next week. Today is also the day my whole family had an epic falling out, resulting in my mother disowning my brother. Apart from having them taking turns sobbing at me through the phone, they're also not coming to the wedding. I paid the hotel rooms in advance. FML

Today, six weeks before my wedding, my mother decided to claim that she never agreed on paying for it and that she doesn't think she will. Now I have six weeks to scavenge enough cash for the wedding she planned in the first place. FML

Today, my boyfriend proposed. I was about to call my parents and tell them we're getting married, but they called me first to announce they're getting a divorce. FML

Today, my parents had a huge fight because my mom found out my dad was cheating on her. They screamed for half an hour. Right in the middle of my wedding. FML

...Why would you do that? They obviously only did it for the gifts.

Maybe you shouldn't have such a white trash family. :/

You paid for a 1/4 of the wedding? That is so unbeliveable.

Why would you ever pay for one of your parent's wedding? That makes no sense to me. It's stupid and sucks that they're getting divorced so soon, but I don't have a lot of pity because you shouldn't have payed in the first place.

a) if the seperation happens after only two weeks of marriage you get an Annullment. Not a divorce. You annul the marriage. Divorces are expensive. b) ask for your money back.

Get your money back. That is unbelievable.

That's pathetic. Why did they even bother? It's obvious they don't love each other, and it was a complete waste of a shitload of money. You don't deserve it at all, it's not your fault. You didn't know that they were only going to last two weeks. Seriously... That's irritatingly sad.

I would make them pay the money back. They're only thinking about themselves. It's probably not even crossed their minds that you did that.

Maybe they didn't want to get married and only went through with it because you were paying and didn't want to waste the money you already spent (deposits, invites, dresses things that couldn't have been returned) either way they suck and you should make them pay you back!!
