Today, my partner walked in the room wearing a sweater from my wardrobe, making jokes about it and saying how ugly it was. That sweater was the last thing my father wore before he passed away. FML

baxeh tells us more.

Well, it's not the most dashing sweater, and i know it's an easy mistake to make. No point in getting upset over nothing really. Just felt like the moment belonged on this site, i'm glad the FML got posted, and thank you for all your comments!

Sorry to hear that op,that was harsh but your boyfriend didnt mean to hurt you

Could have been worse. At least your partner didn't say, "I wouldn't be caught dead in this".

Op said partner, they never specified a gender.

#3: OP never specified a gender. Either assumption, male or female, is fine.

I really don't think your partner meant to hurt you OP :( You should tell he/she about it and he/she will regret it.

Why everybody assume he didn't know - maybe he's just a mean jerk

If he knew then that was just plain cruel, there wasn't any humor in it...

#23 Assuming the lover didn't know it was just a show if ignorance, if they did know it was just plain cruel and shows how respectful they are of OP...

you know hes gay because a lesbian wouldn't have been such a crybaby about it

@3: In the English language, if the gender is unknown, you use the masculine terms.

No, you use the they/them/their. It works as a singular gender-neutral pronoun.

misplaced joke at a misplaced time there, comrade

Don't worry, i brought a shovel to help with my burying.

Am I going to Hell for chuckling at that cruel joke? ... I am? Well, shit. Better don my fire retardent pants.

My grandmother knitted me a pink sweater for when I was one year old. I saw it in my closet once, not knowing whose it was, and my dad chewed me out for being "ungrateful." Oops. I feel with OP

Well.. He/she didn't know, but I'm so sorry for your loss, OP

Awwh bless, she/he didn't know, I'm sure they didn't mean to hurt u op

Could have been worse. At least your partner didn't say, "I wouldn't be caught dead in this".

Why are they wearing it if it's so ugly? It's Ok OP, don't let it upset you.

Reading comprehension escapes you.

Don't sweat it OP, some people just don't know what they are doing.

I hope they said that not knowing that was the case. Remember fashion goes in and out, but the love for your father with remain the same, so wear it all day and everyday. I'm sure nothing bad was meant by it

Sorry to hear that OP. I hope you can forgive him and tell him how much that sweater means to you.
