Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I canceled our wedding that was scheduled for tomorrow because my fiancee's father passed away unexpectedly this morning. She got furious when I told her, because she still wanted to go through with it, and said that her dad would have wanted us to. Now she's not speaking to me. FML
Today, my dad had a chat with my fiancé, telling him he can do better than me, and to think carefully before going through with our wedding. FML
Today, I was supposed to get married. I called it off only 20 minutes before the ceremony was supposed to begin because I saw my fiance punch his own mother in the face. FML
Today, my fiancée got married. I did not. FML
Today, my dad, who lives hours away, called and told me he was getting married. Today. As in this evening. Guess I'm not invited. FML
Today, my father-in-law decided he was going to just completely take over our engagement party, so now my fiancé just wants to go to Reno and get married there. FML
Today, my uncle was supposed to be the officiant at my wedding but he and my dad teamed up to make a joke about how this was actually my fiancé's funeral. Everyone laughed, except my fiancé. He burst into tears and ran from the altar. We can’t find him and he’s not answering his phone. FML
Today, my fiancée decided to go on a "vacation." Our wedding is tomorrow. FML
Today, I went to my fiancé's mother's funeral. His step-sister proudly announced that she's pregnant with his baby and they are engaged. FML
Today, at our wedding, instead of saying "I do", my fiancé paused before saying, "I can't do this", stepped down from the altar and proposed to my maid of honor. When she obviously refused, he ran from the venue bawling. He's not returning my calls. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

It was a dark and rainy night. The wind beat heavily against the cabin. The fiancé then went outside to look for his partner. He found her tied up by her dad. The father then began spouting lines such as, "I'll never give her to you!!" and "If you come any closer ill shoot you" After hearing this the fiancé pushed forward, looking to take his bride away. The father then pointed his fun at him and prepared to shoot. Just as he was going to pull the trigger a strong gust of wind blew the rifle off its target thus missing the fiancé.

Hey you above me... Let's not jump the gun.
Imhere4fml 24
I pictured a party after you said "pointed his fun" and the dad gave him shots... 56

We can all see the details on COPS- Saturday night on FOX, 8/7 Central

Is OP's father Dick Cheney?

I too point my fun at people.

What op needs is a bullet proof vest and gun control
Risho96 10
@103: Gun control never solved anything.
geko911 22
108 - gun control never solved *much* because of the black market. If there wasn't that little (and by little I mean big fkg ass) problem, gun control would be quite useful..

103- Shut Up or Ill shoot you with a fully automatic rifle through your Kevlar weaver vest.

Pointing your "fun" at people could be more risky than a gun
Qwermy 16
unless by gun control you mean steady hands on your gun
thatgirlincali 13
Still waiting on those details..
obnum 19
I've never seen so many likes on one post. Seems a lot of people want more details. Well, OP? Are you just gonna stand there or are you gonna give the people what they want?
pompomkiwi 14
Ya deffinitely
cottoncandymango 17
As much as I'm sympathizing with you, I feel like there's way more reasoning to this FML...
K410 18
Lets be honest I'm sure most overprotective dads are dying to do the same thing, this guy just had the balls to do it :p
Eorlas 31
Balls? More like serious mental issues. However, that's assuming the father is in the wrong, but I'm basing that off of every overprotective dad fml where he's stupid enough to threaten every guy that comes along.
hashshim 23
I was just guessing that it was an accident. The fiance would still be angry enough to call of the wedding regardless, so it would make sense.

Looks like your father banged him before you.
jarrettd 27
You know you're a redneck when...
Redoxx_fml 22
...you make comments like that.
Llamacod 11
I think you need to finish that sentence, the way I read it implies the dad will bang the daughter too.
yupitssoph 18
Or this gives a wholeeeee new meaning to the term "shotgun wedding."
ILoveMyArm 15
I guess your dad took him saying "I will take a bullet for you" a bit too literal. I hope you can work it out with him though, I'm sure the initial shock of being shot at led to him calling off the wedding.
ThePK 5
I think being shot by your soon-to-be father in-law carries more weight than initial shock into calling off the wedding. It takes a lot of animosity and hate to pull a trigger on someone. However, there's not enough detail to this FML. Perhaps we've got another Cheney case here.
ocramavaf 15
bang bang he shot him down, bang bang, he hit the ground..,
flashback.miss 28
That's not the way to do a shotgun wedding. But I agree; we need to know what led up to this (hopefully it was an accident, but if not then...) But at least he's alright now, physically.

What the wedding is off? . Why would he be upset your father SHOT him? -___-
Truths 8
z.z please stop trying to use sarcasm in text chat. It doesn't work quite well as you can see.
cuppycakeslove 20
I actually don't even think he meant to use sarcasm, sadly I think he's being 100% serious
Truths 8
I doubt that. Why capitalize the word 'SHOT' if he/she didn't indicate it as sarcasm?
cuppycakeslove 20
Right right, I get it now..had to read it in my sarcasm voice haha
babygrrl257 11
Yea usually I assume that face (-____-)makes it pretty obvious that I'm not being serious. And also capitalizing shot i thought that was a pretty good clue too. And really? Why would i be serious? Im not dumb....
babygrrl257 11
Adding to that, im a girl for whoever said i was a guy. :)
Sal_G_63 5
Not saying you are, but you'd be surprised just how stupid people can be on the Internet.
babygrrl257 11
See, thats why i strive not to be. I have my moments. And was half asleep when i posted that because i stayed up all night that past two nights babysitting my four month old nephew. So yeah looking back its kind of dumb, however i was being completely sarcastic.
babygrrl257 11
And responding again. I'd lock myself in a basement if i were that stupid.
xx000o 27
Keep it up and you'll be there before you know it.
babygrrl257 11
Ok. So if you were actually reading what i was saying. Yes that was somewhat stupid looking back. So thank for making feel like and idiot.
xx000o 27
Congratulations, you made it.

Why are you so determined to prove your intelligence to a bunch of keyboard warriors on fml? That's my biggest question reading all of your replies.

OMG who the hell cares?!?!?
AdamsNumberOne 16
He does since hes asking her that question.
Kateyez_26 13
I hope your fiancé is ok :/
arhmatic 3
He is fine! Read the fml.

Not everybody can, sadly..

that was the only detail we did know... we need more than this like #1 said.
tegraturbo2000 15
we also know hes not her fiance any more hence the wedding is off
Obey_StudBoii 23
Learn how to read.
Justy101 23
The lack of details makes interpreting this FML tricky. For all we know, the wedding could be off because the fiancé died.
Justy101 23
Oops just realised I skipped the part about him being okay. Awkward *tugs shirt collar*
Neyuu 18
Reading is hard. Especially when it's such a long FML.
Kateyez_26 13
My bad, read the FML too fast while skimming through the other FMLs

I'm sure there was a valid reason for it..

Unless he was a deranged, psychotic mass-murderer, there's never a reason to randomly shoot someone.
Truths 8
Yea because her father just 'randomly' shot him for no reason..
iAlissa 34
Hey, neither of us know the whole story. So I take back my comment above, but I do wish we knew more to this story. Hopefully OP comments with more information
Gestpacho88 12
Well, judging by the lack of information, he could be a deranged, psychotic mass murderer and OP could be on drugs.
Kateyez_26 13
What If somebody broke into your house and tried to rob your shit or harm your kids?? that's a perfect reason to shoot at someone!
oj101 33
Your father was just checking his loyalty. It seems that your (ex) boyfriend would take a bullet for you! How nice.
CrissyyyS2 22
So you're saying the father was aiming at his own daughter and was about to pull the trigger? And if the fiancé didnt take that bullet, she would of been shot instead?
outoftown 27
Given all the gun fans on FML, I wouldn't be surprised.
