Today, my dad texted me, "I love u." I replied, "I love you too dad... are you drunk?" He answers back, "Of course I am..." My dad only tells me he loves me when he's drunk. FML

Today, I was texting my boyfriend about yesterday, where he told me how much he loved me, and he wishes we lived closer. I asked him if he really meant it. Turns out he was drunk, and had no idea what he was talking about. FML

Today, I sent my boyfriend of three and a half years a text message spilling my heart out, saying I'll love him forever, and how much I appreciate him in my life, that I want to be the mother of his children, etc. His text back to me? "Are you drunk?!?" FML

Today, I came home to find my dad drinking. Trying to be cheerful, I greeted him with a "Hi, dad!" He sighed, shook his head, and said "It hurts me when you call me that." FML

Today, my dad seemed moody, so to lift his spirits, I told him I loved him. He just snorted, "You gay or something, boy?" Really mature, dad, really mature. FML

Today, I received a text from my dad, which was borderline-incomprehensible due to an insane amount of text language. I replied, jokingly asked if he had a stroke while writing it. A few seconds after hitting send, I remembered the stroke he suffered last month. FML

why would you say 'I love you too' if he's an asshole who only tell you he loves you when he's drunk? I wouldn't even talk to a father like that.

Ouch. If it makes you feel any better...my dad has been drunk most of my life, and he hasn't told me he loves him in over a decade....I'm in my 20's....

#24....it's still his/her father. The ones that we love tend to be the ones that can hurt us the most.

Hey ppl are more honest about their feelings when they are drunk. So that means your dad really loves you but when he is sober he may feel, for whatever reason, less inclined to express it. Be happy that he loves you and love him back even more so. ;)

I agree with the people saying that drunken words are sober thoughts. Guys are usually scared to say, "I love you," anyway... Actually, that's a bad stereotype. Maybe your Dad's just a little uncomfortable about saying it. Now that he's loosened up and gotten drunk, he'll be truthful about it!

Aww =c At least he isn't a violent drunk though. I know it can hurt more though having a relative who is a drunk like that. Hurts hearing 'I love you' from someone when they are hurting themselves with their problem.
