Today, I took my boyfriend to a family dinner. It went well, until my dad got drunk and started telling everyone about how "midgets" are assholes and are ruining America. FML

Today, I took my boyfriend to dinner to meet my parents. He agreed to be on his best behavior, but when my mom told us about some shady stuff going on at her job, he replied that it sounded "fishier than Justin Bieber's cunt." We were quickly kicked out. FML

Today, I was eating out at a restaurant with my family. My dad had drained most of our bottle of wine, so thinking he'd be a little less uptight than usual, I reached over to pour myself some. He swatted my hand away and started yelling at me for being a "degenerate drunk". FML

Today, I brought my boyfriend of a year and a half to meet my parents. Turns out he dated my mom. This should be a fun dinner. FML

Today, my boyfriend met my parents. Within minutes, my dad managed to verbally sever his balls and reduce him to tears, "just for fun" apparently. FML

Today, my boyfriend came over to my parents' house for dinner. My dad made Holocaust jokes the entire time. My boyfriend is Jewish. FML

Today, I went to a family dinner. My grandma wasted no time calling me a slut for not wearing a dress, my dad called my police officer boyfriend a "fucking pig", and then he told my mother to "put a cock in it" when she defended me. No wonder I hardly ever visit these people. FML

Today, I met my boyfriend's parents for the first time. His father was completely wasted, his mom was high, and his 11-year-old sister was talking about her favorite alcoholic drinks at the dinner table. FML

Today, I met my boyfriend's parents for the first time. Turns out his dad is the asshole customer that I complain about all the time. He recognized me too and spent the entire dinner making passive-aggressive remarks about how bad of an employee I am. FML

Meet the family

Today, I was invited to my boyfriend's house for dinner for the first time. His mom made a fantastic dinner, so I showed my appreciation by eating the lot. Apparently I was overdoing it because when I looked up everyone was staring. His dad muttered, "Slow the hell down." FML

Is your boyfriend a midget?

Definitely not something he should've said, however I'm sure your boyfriend will understand that you can't be held responsible for your father's ignorance. Sorry about your dinner, OP!

Does you father also support Trump by any chance?

Ignoring Trump's numerous faults he has lead a successfull business that hasn't had financial issues in recent times. Perhaps he could get us out of the red and into the green with our budget.

Clearly it was sarcasm. Truth be told whst we really need in the white house is a lower middle class person who understands the economic struggles of the majority of the U.S.

Doesn't matter if your boyfriend is short or not... Doesn't matter if your dad was drunk or not.. Your dad is a straight up ass.

That sucks but don't sweat it. If your boyfriend is a decent guy he should be able to see that you are not your parents. My ex boyfriend's father was an embarrassing drunk but my ex never drank. Your boyfriend should be understanding. And your dad deserves a private conversation.
