Today, my step-dad tried to talk me into getting plastic surgery. His reasoning: "Let's face it, 28 and single? Look, I know your mum gave you shitty genes, but that's no excuse to avoid fixing your face, honey." FML

Today, I mentioned to my family that I was sad about the fact that I was thirty-five years-old, single, and had no children. My father piped up from the next room, "What man in his right would want your lopsided tits, fat thighs, and fucked-up nose in their gene pool?" FML

Today, my sister tried to convince me to go to a plastic surgeon, because "Bitchface Syndrome's no joke." FML

Today, I told my parents I wanted to try modelling. I decided that since I have such a low self-esteem, that it might benefit me, and make me feel better about myself and how I look. The first thing out of my dad's mouth was, "What? Why? You're ugly." Thanks dad. FML

Today, I met some guys from my dad's workplace. They told him what a pretty daughter he had, to which he responded, "Nah, it's just shit-loads of makeup." FML

Today, my stepfather-to-be yelled at me, insisting I take my nose piercing out, because it will "ruin the wedding photos" since I'm a bridesmaid. It's a tiny diamante stud, no bigger than a small pinhead. He then went on a rant about how I need to respect his authority in the family. I'm 25. FML

Today, I overheard my dad telling my mum that the only way I'm ever going to get into a relationship is if I "pose as a woman and con some gullible bastard online." He's probably right. FML

Today, my father was telling me that one of the benefits about his job was that the family could get discounts, then asked if I'd like some. My dad's a plastic surgeon. FML

So what's his excuse for being a tactless prick, I wonder?

Be glad he's not actually your blood, you might have inherited the asshole and ******** genes from him and OP don't worry, beauty and love don't discriminate by age...

I think it's about time OP's dad got his ugly heart fixed.

You can fix ugly, you cant fix being a delusional douche-bag.

#18, I don't get your point. If the OP gets an improvement surgically, the stepdad could still be a douchebag, but he was not delusional. He would have been more in touch with reality than the OP.

I'm sorry, more in touch with reality? Not everyone in this world is gorgeous looking. That doesn't mean all ugly people should get plastic surgery.

#57, you do realize there is a whole continuum of looks between ugly and gorgeous? Unless the OP is single by choice, she may want to consider getting some work done to improve her odds.

I know he probably sounds like an asshole but why not think on the bright side? Maybe he's looking out for you:)

How is telling someone they have to look a certain way because in their eyes they're ugly and going to the point of recommending radical surgery just because at 28 years old, which is not that old, you don't have a partner, looking out for someone?

He's not your real dad. Don't let him talk to you like that. Tell him he's an insensitive prick and that he needs to shut the **** up.

Not a nice way to put it, but maybe he has a point. He should consider helping with the expense as an investment to get you out of the house and more alone-time with your mom. He sounds like a dick, but he may not be a liar.

49# Your comment made me laugh, thank you. I don't understand why people have to turn attention to people they disagree with on YouTube, it just a bar so why give a ****? OP, he has insulted you and your mother, if he can speak to you like that I doubt he knows you well enough to know all the reasons why you are single. Therefore it could be the only thing he could think of as he is not blind or your such a lovely person he couldn't pick fault at your character. I doubt your ugly but I'm just a bunch words, your opinion is all that matters.
