Today, during a dinner party, some friends brought up how sweet, innocent and caring they thought I was. I had to sit there as my drunk boyfriend cut them off and loudly argue that I was neither sweet nor innocent, and really nothing that special at all. FML

Communication Breakdown

Today, after hanging out with my boyfriend’s group once, they’ve decided I’m a “prissy stuck-up bitch who thinks she’s perfect.” I’m not at all. They just engage in nothing but insults and self-deprecating “jokes” without any real conversation. Sorry for not putting myself down for amusement. FML

Today, my boyfriend introduced me to his family. They were drinking and having fun, so I joined in. I had one too many, got really goofy, and then suggested the farting game. "Sorry, I can't hold my liquor!" I quickly explained. My boyfriend's mom shot me a cold look and said, "It's non-alcoholic." FML

Today, I thought I had gotten away with throwing a party while my folks were gone the night before. They came home and I was as sweet as possible. I could tell they were not buying it, but I thought I was in the clear. Later, they told me I had drunk-dialled them and spilled the beans. FML

Today, I bumped into my next door neighbor. She said, "Not for nothing, but I heard you fighting with your boyfriend last night, you're pretty harsh on him." I don't have a boyfriend, I was just drunk and castigating myself. FML

Today, at dinner with my boyfriend and my family, my mother had too much to drink and asked my boyfriend how I was in bed with the purpose of embarrassing me. His reply? "Not as good as her sister." His defense? "It was only one time." FML

Today, we had our friends over for dinner, one of whom is a psychiatrist. After a few drinks, my drunk wife and the equally drunk psychiatrist began to analyze my various character flaws. FML

Today, at a party I bumped into a friend of my ex. We caught the same bus home. He started telling me about my ex's "totally insane" ex-girlfriend. He refused to believe me when I told him he was talking about me. I had to sit there for half an hour as my personality was ripped to shreds. FML

Today, I threw a birthday party for my boyfriend. As a joke, my friend and I served him non-alcoholic beer to see how he'd react. After a while, he faked being drunk, using it as an excuse after I caught him making out with one of my so-called "friends". FML

Today, I was invited by my boyfriend's parents for dinner at their house. The dinner went well I thought, until I was getting ready to leave. Before I could make it out the front door, I could hear them discussing their disappointment that their son would ever consider someone like me. FML

Today, I had to sit and smile as a drunk lady ranted about how body hair on a woman is disgusting and unfeminine, then in the next breath say that only pedos like women who shave their vaginas. That's the last time I ever have dinner with my boyfriend's parents. FML

Well, as the Romans said, "in vino veritas." In wine there is truth. So, at least now you know what your boyfriend *really* thinks about you.

Wow, people are stupid when they drink but that guy is a freaking asshole. Dump his ass.! You're probably a really sweet and caring person like your friends say you are

In all honesty, he's known you for four years so I assume he knows you very well and, regardless if being drunk, was telling the truth... Alternatively you could kick him in the nuts

He knows you better than the other guys and drunk people blurt out the truth

Ppl are dumb... Alot of ppl like to argue when they are drunk it has nothing to do with the truth ... Anywho... I know you been with him for a min.. But it's time for you to know your worth :)

I've never described a mentally competent adult as "innocent" so I'm inclined to believe your bf is correct. Our SOs see the real us, especially if you cohabitate. However, he should not treat you like that and to do so in public shows an incredible lack of judgement or extreme confidence. It was highly inconsiderate and those types of behaviour don't change. I rarely say this but it's time to get out of that relationship.

IF, a lot of people have a dark side that only the SO "would" see. I knew a guy that came across as sweet and shy only to later find out he likes to hang himself with hooks from his back and stuff. Never would I have thought of him as that type of person. He was so soft spoken and everything. Ever heard of the expression "Beware of the quiet ones"?(:

Exactly, sg. Even if the bf is a class A douche, he probably knows her better than her friends. Airing her dirty laundry in public makes him a rotten bf though and not particularly worth holding on to. She should find a new bloke to spring her secret self on.

'Spring her secret self on'. I like that.(:

I do hope you told him that he was no longer important to you, and you got rid of him. If you didn't get rid of him, expect him to continue to insult you.
