Today, while riding on the car with my family, I put on my headphones and pretended to be listening to music and when my parents talked to me, I pretended I couldn't hear them. They took this opportunity to discuss how fat I was and how I can't hold down a boyfriend. They were laughing as well. FML

Today, I was eating dinner with my family. My parents didn't want me to hear what they were talking about so they decided they would spell out the words so I wouldn't understand. I didn't. FML

Today, while driving home with my parents. I pretended to be asleep so mum wouldn't talk to me. They then took this time to describe what they were going to do to each other when they got home. In full detail. FML

Today, I discovered how pathetically introverted I am when during a car ride with my family, I said, "I really like this song" and my parents gasped because they didn't realize I was in the back seat. And I'm their only child. FML

Toxic people

Today, I went out with my parents and a family friend. After saying goodbye to the friend and as soon as the elevator doors shut, my parents started trash-talking the friend's looks, stature, choice of clothes, etc. Now I understand a lot about my education growing up. FML

Today, I was performing in an orchestra concert. My stand partner and I commented on people in the audience the whole time, saying how fat they were, etc. Towards the end of the concert, I realized we were sitting right by a microphone, and the whole audience could hear us. FML

Cool moves

Today, I was in my car and a cute guy pulled up next to me. He looked at me and smiled, but in order to be cool, I pretended not to notice. I also pretended that I was listening to music and was completely absorbed in it, singing passionately. I wasn't even listening to music and my window was down. FML

Just stop

Today, I was called fat by my boyfriend's old-fashioned mom. I'm not close to fat but I'm not really skinny either so she calls me fat. She also complained that my feet makes noise when I walk and that girls shouldn't make noise when walking. This week has been hell. FML

Today, I realized I'm getting fat. When going for a drive, I plugged my phone in to listen to music. I put the phone in my lap to start driving and my gut changed the song. FML

#1, it might be the girl's fault she's overweight, but her family should not talk about this fact so cruelly- and laugh at her! Especially with her in the car.

Seriously? That's cruel. Maybe it was a joke, considering they were laughing. Maybe they just knew you could hear it, but even then it's still mean. But then again, if someone's overweight, someone's overweight. So, yeah. FYL/YDI (=

Lose the weight, and start putting out, and the boyfriends will start to stay around. Why would they want to keep a stupid fattie?

she's so fat they have to strap her to the roof of the car with zip ties, bungee cords and duct tape...that's what she failed to add when she wrote "riding on the car"....sometimes the truth hurts, chubbs. they were about the boyfriend part though...in sure you can find a Big Mac or a t-bone that would love to go out with you :)

YDI for acting like a bitch to them. You act like that to them, they'll act like that to you.

oh, and the best part...she wrote that she can't "hold down" a boyfriend...you have to watch what you write, fatty. I'm sure with your sizeable belly and ginormous ass you can definitely hold a guy down...the trick is not asphyxiating him with your fatness...dating a guy, well that's a whole other story...

My dad does that to me...only difference is he knows I can hear him and he just talks about how I have misplaced anger even though the only time I yell at him is when he seriously pisses me off...

Why is it always a YDI when someone is fat? Have any of you had a thyroid problem? Have you taken antidepressants? Or antipsycotics? You're lucky if you havent. They all cause weight gain. Unless OP just likes eating a lot or not exercising, being heavy isnt her fault. Even then her parents being that cruel isnt called for. FYL, OP. My mom is the same way... But she makes sure I hear her talk about it.

"I'm not fat, I'm just big boned!" -- excuses do not help you lose weight, tub-o.

When you have a medical condition or medicine that cause weight gain, NOTHING HELPS YOU LOSE WEIGHT. Even once the problem is resolved its very difficult to drop the weight. Whatever, theres no convincing anybody until you're the one posting an FML saying "Ive been gaining quite a bit of weight recently so I went to the doctor, turns out I have Hypothyroidism."
