Today, I met my boyfriend's parents for the first time. I'm already a clumsy person but became extra clumsy because I was nervous. After knocking over my drink for the fourth time, my boyfriend's mom angrily shouted "Did you actually come drunk for the first time meeting us?" FML

4 times... wow... twice... okay, but 4? Anyway, it sucks that that is the first impression they have of you, but let's hope your boyfriend clears your name, and the next time you meet them concentrate on being extremely careful, as to not further damage your reputation.

how does nervousness translate to drunk? Ive been both plenty of times, and they're very different attitudes. its easy enough just to mention that you're kind of nervous. I would think that any parent who dated or had a social life of their own can understand. either that or they're just asses, in which case you shouldn't worry about impressing them so much anyway.

Your bf's mom has no sense of empathy. Even while knocking over a glass four times is a bit too much, that was out of line. Keep in mind if you marry this guy, you're gonna have to put with that, on a worse level.

At least you didn't knock down an urn containing the father's mother. Could have been worse. XD

She doesn't sound very nice... but 4 times is a little absurd. Maybe you should have had something, to calm your nerves.

^#17^ Alcohol. Copious amounts of alcohol. Wouldn't that be ironic..

kava can calm your nerves. it can also make you trip. and i don't mean fall.
