Today, my parents told me about how they met. I'd already known they were eight years apart, but I never knew my dad started dating my mom when he was 21 and she was 13. FML

wow. I guess age really didn't matter to them..

That's... wow. The fact that they actually stayed together up until now is a miracle in itself.

I don't get this FML. What's so bad about that?

she was 13 and he was 21. she could barely spell the word "jailbait" he's a freaking cradle robber. if a 21 year old was caught with a 13 year old now he'd be in jail so long his gravestone would already be marked.

Neither. I just don't consider the fact that it's illegal a legitimate reason to freak out over it, let alone feel like your life is ****** because you're the product of it. That's just depressing.

it wud be a total fml, if op's like 12 and his mom 25.

obviously, @13, you met your boyfriend when you were 13 and he was eight years older, /: don't be dumb.

cuz it now look like her d is a pedofile ?

She was 13, I'm pretty sure she could spell the word "jailbait" unless she was mentally retarted. If she was mentally retarted then there would be an issue here. But this is no FML. There's not really a huge deal here. now if she had been like 11 or some prebuescent child then there would def be an issue.

I'm 19 and my girlfriend is 27. This age difference doesn't seem bad because we're both legal. the parents are legal now and that's what matters. They just happened to meet at a younger age.

idk when u hit puberty but I know I was 13 so pretty sure she was still a child don't be a fool and learn how to spell FYI.

Pedobear alert!! Make sure you don't turn out like him op

Jeez, I really hate it when my weeble-woo burns when I take a wooble-waa, reminds me of that one time I slept with every1luvsboners. OMG I can't believe I just said that hahaha lol rofl nyarknyarknyard.

that's so wrong in so many ways.... how old are they and how old are you?

So dnt put an age on love I'm 14 nd my bfs 20

Your boyfriend has a problem. I hope you two aren't having sex, because that's statutory rape in all 50 states. Even if you aren't, there is a huge maturity difference between 14 and 20. You don't see it since you are 14. Wait until you're 20 and think if you would date a 14 year old.

Why are your comments all so good, Doc? She will soon realize that this FML is the exception and not the rule.

My comments aren't all good - I screwed up big time in the gas station attendant FML earlier. :)

lol now that you said that i need to know how. TELL ME. atleast tell me through a private message.

FFML_314 11

14 and 20? IMO, there is something wrong with someone who is 20 years old and dates a child. You are not mature enough to date someone your own age at 14, let alone an adult. Do you know how vastly different the world is when you're 14 as opposed to 20? Break it off, because you will most likely regret it.

destany 0

that's disgusting. I hope law enforcement takes action and locks his ass up. do your parents know he's 20? if so, they need to be locked up too for letting you date him,

... and I was there to revel in Doc's downfall. Mwahaha, mwahaha, MWAHAHA! :}

But seriously, 17, for your sake, I hope your boyfriend is just severely developmentally stunted.

you can tell just by the comment she's trash with no common sense... she probably thinks she loves the guy and they'll get married one day because she's immature, while he's really cheating on her and he just wants one thing from her.

Well, she's got a mustache like a 20 year old. Maybe that counts for something?

ifailplzinsultme 0

76-how? and besides. atlst I dnt tlk lik dis

that's disgusting. what kind of male in his right mind at his age would go for someone THAT much younger? unless he can't pull girls his age, and "dating" a child is his only option. even still, he must be stupid to take such a risk. do your parents know the age of your beau? someone call the cops

KiddNYC1O 20

120- Because you're a hypocrite. I'm not a Grammar Nazi but you lack grammar skills.*

ifailplzinsultme- I'm going to assume, based on your username, that you're a troll. If you aren't, you chose the wrong name. Anyway, the more I think about this, the angrier I get. My daughter is 4, and if she ever even thinks about dating an adult while she is still a child I will lock her up in her room until she is 21. As for the guy, his dentist will be the only one able to identify his remains.

alliewillie 22

which is disturbing as well. I'm 21 and I can tell you - 20 yr old college age guys don't normally want practically prepubescent girls.

MyFirstKiss 0

gaby,its okay for me to date an 18yr old since im 16,but 14&20 is insane,take our advice and use it.wait til ur older to be with him?because he could be some rapist and he may rape u when ur sleeping.we all dont want that to happen

#145: Have you ever heard of the space bar? You know, the BIGGEST FREAKING key on the whole keyboard?!

FFML_314 11

On the whole keyboard? Are you serious? WTF! My "H" key is bigger than my space bar. Something must be wrong...

Fortuitous 0

0_0 Oh no! Pandemonium has erupted. I think we should have every computer checked and establish a proper space bar regulation.

there is so much wrong with your boyfriend that I dint even know where to begin. that's utterly disgusting!

FFML - your "H" key?? You have an "H" key? That was an upgrade for me! I'm still searching for my "any" key. "Press any key to continue"

FFML_314 11

You can begin at capitalization and end with grammar.

132 and 125. I was joking. No I'm not a troll and I can usually pull out some "win" comments. This is not one of them. I was pointing out that she was talking in text launguage. This isn't texting. You blew it out of proportion.

there's only 2 reasons a 20 year old would date a 14 year old. 1. he's a "loser" that no girl his age would touch with a 10 foot pole. or 2. The younger girls are easier to manipulate into doing sexual things. I'm not saying there's no exceptions but there are very few :/ I hope you find someone closer to your age in the future.

at 14 u are just beginning to understand the world around u. u shouldn't be dating a 20 year old. I do agree with not putting an age on love but when it is a 6 year difference and the youngest is only 14 u need to end it. maybe get back together when ur a little older but right now it's not something u need or can handle

I'm a 14 year old girl and I find that quite creepy... and disturbing, seriously nothing good can come from that.

It's good to see there are still a couple of sane kids around here. Stay in school, don't do drugs, and don't date adults until you ARE one. Sheesh.

lalagirl912 0

what about a mature 12 yr old and a 16 yr old? only 4 years.. I don't think it's thattt bad... and how do 20 year olds meet 14 year olds O.o do they just wait in a car and if they see somebody pretty they go out for the kill? :o

Vexation 0

A "mature 12 year old" with a 16 year old? Brains at not even fully developed until adulthood.

Hey poster-take it from me here. The father of my oldest is 6 years older then me. I fell for a glib tongue and got played way wrong because I. did not have the maturity level to see what was going on. At the age of 14 I became a mother and watched him take after my best friend once he found out. Some one that age wants an easy conquest simple as that. For everyone fixing to lambast me with negative comments, my child is a happy, well adjusted 13 year old and I have a sound career and working on masters. I was not on welfare, nor am I now, and while I was an idiot, my children are not mistakes. As to statutory rape-they could only press it if the parents so choose. My husband and I met when I was 16 and e was 19. My father I law tried pressing stat on his OWN child an the police laughed him out of station. I thin my book is done. PM me if you have any questions. Seriously poster - pm me.

no that's f*king disgusting it's just immoral and looked down upon by most

What mature 16 year old would go out with a 12 year old... Ew why would that even happen anyway D:

hahaha.. woww.. your boyfriend has no game !! haa ! XD

I personally believe more than 5 years isn't appropriate unless there both over 21. just my opinion:)

I started dating my bf when I was 18 and he was 37.. We've been together for four years now and he's the best thing that ever happened to me and vice versa. Age isn't an issue as long as both parties are mature and it's not illegal. Just sayin'.

im not agreeing with this, but 41, thats legal in minnesota. in mn the law states you cant be more then 6 years apart when it comes to minor/adult relations

Good job you aren't...it's 'grammar'.

varkey 7

Wtf!!!!! that's so disgusting, they are both perverts FYL

tdub10 2

So, your dad is/was a manther once upon a time. Think of it like this atleast they're still together now and you wasn't an accident.

Ppl r jus weired bout it but I see nthin wrong with it

swish22743 0

good point and your pretty wise to be kinda young lol no offense :)

But how is that wrong #28? If she no longer felt the same way, she could simply end the relationship. And OP, it's not an FML if your parents are happy enough to have lasted this long. : )

28 Your reply was completely unrelated to 23's comment, it might be the comment bug though.

You don't see anything wrong with it because you are 14 and don't know any better. Despite what you think or feel, you are not "grown" or "mature". You are a child. Ask anyone who is older than your bf how much they knew at age 14. And incidentally, it's not wrong just because it's illegal; it's illegal because it's wrong. Adults made the law because they know healthy adults do not want to date children.

please listen to 236 :) haa ! like on the real though.. is this where teens start thinking they know everything ??

auto_da_fe 2

You really should take the majority of these posters' advice. At age 14 I thought the adults around me were wrong about relationships and the boy I was involved with. I ended up losing my virginity at that age, which I see now was far too young. Needless to say that boy had nothing to do with me after. You need to focus on yourself and school. Relationships at such a young age are almost always immature mistakes. But hey, it's your life. You're allowed to mess up however badly you want.

All I gotta say is been there done that not going back there

How is this an FML? Some people find true love at an early age. I know a 30-something year old couple who have been together since they were 12. She could have been really mature for her age. They're still together, so this is in no way a bad thing. He clearly loves her and wouldn't pressure her into anything, so chances are they weren't having sex back then.

It's illegal, and it's perverted. And you have no reason to think that "he clearly loves her and wouldn't pressure her into anything" just because they've stayed together. It could be an abusive relationship. You don't know. The couple you know has been together since they were BOTH 12. That's entirely different from a middle-schooler dating an adult.

^someone's been eating too much grumpy-cereal.

The hell? This is not the comment I was meaning to reply to.

29 somebody's cereal was lined with crack this morning...

No people who are the same age dating is fine but he was dating her when he was of age and she wasn't

TheZarola 10

How is this an FML for you? On another note, age doesn't matter much unless it's an adult dating a minor (like in this case). Personally, I wouldn't date anyone more than 5 years my junior or senior, but that's just me.

SinfulTragedy 19

and we can talk about your need to solicit sex from underage girls...

and what has that got to do with anything?
