Today, I met my girlfriend's father for the first time. The first thing he did was show me a bullet, then he basically said that if I don't submit to his daughter's every whim, that bullet will end my life. FML

The first thing my father did when I was around the guy I liked was tell us he was sharpening his knives

I mentioned this before but the girl I took to prom had a dad like that. As soon I showed up he took me around the house, brought me over to a wall full of boxing plaques and medals he'd won, and told me "It's been a while since I knocked anyone out...but I might just have to again at some point" as he stared at me... Not to mention though all guys kind of dread the day a young man comes calling for their daughter.

Wasn't that also a scene from the show last man standing with Tim Allen

Was it? That might be where he got the idea from then.

#72 - I've noticed all your posts concerning meeting a girl's dad end with the same statement: "Not to mention all guys kind of dread the day a young man comes calling for their daughter." Nice of you to provide us with the TL;DR. :)

you are what is wrong with this country. always looking to sue to make that fast buck with no work. its led to the kind of society were a woman spills coffee and gets paid

#47 I bet his dad is the same as your user name a "Redneck"

The american way of suing everyone for everything is wrong, I agree. But so is making death threats towards a young lad whose only crime is to date his daughter, don`t you think? I understand that a dad wants to protect his daughter, mayby ESPECIALLY because he remembers how he used to treat his girlfriends. But showing her boyfriend a bullet and tell him, you will drive it into his body one day? This is not funny anymore, this is plain and simple terrifying. If this was my girlfriend I am pretty sure the relationship would have ended here, since I simply could not have stopped myself and tell her dad in detail what an asshole he is.

On my first date, my dad threw a bullet at my date and said "it goes a lot faster after 11".

161- that is epic and a must remember for my potential future daughter

I'd say he wasn't.. I dont think he'd post it on FML if he knew he was joking.

A decent percentage of posts on here are fake.

Nah op should've replied "if you're gonna shoot shoot, don't talk." And then pulled out his own piece

71 OP can stop a speeding bullet once, twice if it doesn't hit anything vital...:P

Witness: "He's faster than a speeding bullet!" (looks behind OP) "Literally!"

Run far away and never return!

Common sense here. Why the hell should OP return? A death threat was made to him. Unless OP has a death wish, he wouldn't come back.

I feel bad for her! she must be so embarrassed. he's just trying to intimidate you, OP. but play it safe. dads are... unpredictable.

Hey, just wondering, do you have summer in Canada?

hopefully he doesn't threaten to shoot his daughter's boyfriend though haha

Amen? The act of threatening someone is, legally, considered assault. If he were to actually shoot OP (heavily unlikely), that is a felony. Tell me, what good are you to your daughter if you are incarcerated for a crime?

Sounds like a good time to invest in a bullet proof vest!

Bullet proof vest were the reason head shots were invented. Not really, but you get my drift..... OP should probably find out if those are armor piercing round the gf's father has?

Maybe he can get a helmet and a bullet proof car for further protection!

It's probably a .308 round so good luck protecting from that.

How could you possibly assume it to be a .308 round, 94?

Stalker much, #94? Or are you part of the NSA?

They should really call them bullet resistant vests because once you get a few bullets in it it's pretty much worth less

Does he own a gun? If not, I have this hilarious image of a pissed-off father-in-law trying to manually insert a bullet into the OP.

"TAKE THIS BULLET, AND TAKE IT LIKE A MAN!"

No! No one ******* "rules" over another that isn't a relationship it's abuse.

*father violently jabs boyfriend with bullet* This kinda sounds like a news headline

In this case he is dating the daughter. Dads are worst in those special cases. Moms are worst when it's the son

It depends on the parents. My mom is definitely the vocal one when it comes to me and my sister's relationships.

I'm more inclined to believe this than the prior reply, one step further would be cultures where the wife/mom has equal say, some take a dominant role in the household.
