Today, my girlfriend broke up with me because of my dad constantly hitting on her. Not because she was disgusted, but because she wants to date him. FML
Today, my girlfriend called me from her parents' house where she is visiting. They were BBQing outside when out of the blue her childhood friend Adam showed up at the door for the BBQ. She asked her parents why he was there, and her dad replied that he "wants her to know that she has options." FML
Today, I was informed, after being broken up with, that my girlfriend's father only set her up with me so that she would have more motivation to shower on a regular basis. He actually yelled at me for being broken up with. 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 broke up with my girlfriend. After breaking the news to my parents, I heard my dad mutter when I left, "Damn it, I liked her better than him." My mother didn't protest. 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, I found out that even after a really bad break up and the fact that I left him for someone else, my parents offered my ex-boyfriend to join us on a one week family vacation. He agreed. FML
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me. She told me that her father didn't approve of me and forced her out of the relationship. Her father died 2 years ago. FML
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me after 3 years. Why, do you ask? Turns out her dad used to bully my dad in highschool and my dad kicked his ass after all this time and sent him to the hospital. FML
Today, my girlfriend of two years broke up with me because her father, who abandoned her before she was born and just reentered her life, doesn't approve. FML

The odds of her showing up are slim, unless your family makes delicious food, that is.

Op's ex might go to the bbq because she could be good friends with another family member

I can't imagine why he would want to invite her. This is just idiotic.

She'll go if she's still in love with him or wants to get back together

I'm guessing she was pretty close with the family, or else the dad wouldn't have wanted to invite her.

#2, free food. Next question?

and Dad is hot for OPs ex Curious whether this was an "arranged" situation and OPs parents might not be too keen on OP rejecting their choice.

Let me guess, they favour her over you in this situation?

Talk to your dad, uninvite her. It isn't harsh, going through with thus barbeque will not help anyone.

It sounds like it's his subtle way of trying to get the two of you back together.

It's always so awkward, having cannibals for parents.

He's not too proud to hit on your leftovers ;) She might appreciate his offer to share meat with her ;) ;) (I need to get this facial tic looked at ;))
