Today, I finally invited my girlfriend over to meet my oddball parents. The first words out of my dad's mouth were, "So, you're the silly girl who agreed to date my dickhead son." It went downhill from there. FML

Today, my boyfriend met my dad for the first time. The first thing he said to him was, "You're an idiot for dating my daughter." FML
Today, I met my boyfriend's parents for the first time. I thought everything went well, until I got a text from him later saying, "Come on mom, she isn't THAT bad." FML
Today, I took my girlfriend to meet my parents. My dad thought it'd be hilarious to act surprised and ask me if I'd already dumped the girlfriend I introduced him to yesterday. She slapped me and stormed out of the house before my dad could tell her it was a joke. FML
Today, I took my girlfriend home to meet my parents. They thought it'd be hilarious to put on ridiculous accents and act like country hicks, spewing obscenities and strongly hinting that we're into incest. She soon left in disgust. I haven't heard back from her since. 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, I introduced my girlfriend to my dad. I thought it was a good idea at the time, at least until he took her aside for a private chat. During the chat, he told her all about my two previous marriages and advised her to "get out while you can". 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, I introduced my girlfriend to my parents over lunch. Unfortunately, I showed my dad her Facebook profile beforehand and he wouldn't stop making cracks about her duckfacing. It started with, "Don't let her eat the bread, it'll puff up in her stomach and kill her", and ended in tears. FML
Today, I brought my girlfriend home for the first time to meet my parents. They were having a heated argument because my mom had bought "the wrong toilet paper" and my dad was angry because "she should know that he has a sensitive anus." 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

Well, that was an asshole move. I hope your girlfriend has sense enough not to care too much about what they say.

If your girlfriend really loved you, she would just shove away what your dad said and continue dating you. I hope the best for you, OP

Im just going to take the other perspective. What if the dad is trying to warn his girlfriend. Maybe next week we will have a post from his girlfriend "Today my boyfriend took my virginity, and broke up with me. FMl

the dad sounds like Red Forman

Apparently op's dad doesn't like him so it wouldn't matter what girl was his gf. I do agree that she shouldn't care. I also, agree that I would have told my dad to please shut the **** up. What did Op ever do to deserve a ******** title?

I find it hard to believe op's dad was being an asshole, maybe he was trying to be humorous. Sure it would suck if OP's dad would legitimately think his son "a ********".... But if he was joking, what then?

Maybe, just maybe, the op deserves the title.... I know this one guy, a REAL winner, whom I would like to hit with a bus. He was asked by his mom, who is disabled, to take the rent money down the street to the landlord. He bought an 8-ball with it.... On the other hand, if you're a stand up guy op, your gf probably knows this, so you shouldn't worry.

Well that escalated quickly

No, it didn't.

He said it went down hill, so how can it be escalating?

#21, because most locations have "up" and "down" escalators. To my knowledge, there is no such thing as a "de-escalator," even though that's what half of them are, strictly speaking.

"Well, that de-escalated quickly!" Fixed it :D

lol did you get that from the other fml

At least they weren't mean to HER...
Inciter 33
Well, calling her silly might have been a little offensive to her. I would've been mad if my fiance's parents had called me silly when they first met me.
allie2590 31
I really hope she said something like "at least he's not like his ******** dad."

Your dad sounds like such a nice guy, no wonder you waited so long to introduce your girlfriend to him!

When its time to meet the parents, kill them with kindness
Schiffy 18
If it were me, I'd insult him right back. Of course, if it were my parents, we'd get into a sarcasm fight until one of us runs out of bad insults.

Just don't bring her around too often. Unless it was obvious they were joking the entire time. At least they weren't mean to her, right?

Well, OP? Are you a ******** son?

It's a legitimate question.
