Today, I discovered my boyfriend's family approves of me, not because I'm friendly and intelligent, but because I'm an adequate addition to their gene pool. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I realized my boyfriend's family love and respect me more than my own family. FML
Today, I found out that me having a boyfriend is an on-going family joke. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I were talking about our past relationships. He told me that he broke up with his last girlfriend because she was smart and he suited someone who was quite stupid. He then went on to say that I was perfect for him. FML
Today, I found out the reason my boyfriend dumped me was because his parents don't like the fact that I go to a prestigious university. However, they're completely accepting of the drunken slob who's dating their daughter. FML
Today, I met my new boyfriend’s parents, hoping that they would like me. They made subtle, mean comments during dinner and made me feel like total crap, all because my boyfriend left his ex-wife for me. They don’t get that we’re both good and compatible for each other, and that’s what matters. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me that his daughter only liked me because she thought that we look like siblings. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I were in bed and I asked him why he was with me. His answer was, "Well, the last girl I dated was really smart and she always made me feel dumb, so I decided to switch things up a bit. You make me feel like a genius, babe." FML
Today, while meeting my boyfriend's family for the first time, the first comment I received was, "Well, at least this one is white." FML
Today, I met my boyfriend's entire extended family at a party. All of them, including his dad, said I looked exactly like his mum. FML
Today, my boyfriend dumped me because he said he needed to be with someone smart so that he could impress his parents. I just got accepted into medical school. When I pointed that out to him, he added that he needed to be with someone attractive. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Be glad that they didn't just judge you on the surface. They decided to evaluate you right down to your DNA.

Just adequate? You fail! They must be evolutionists.

I have yet to see how this is an FML. Leave your boyfriend's parents be, you fell in love with your boyfriend, his opinon should matter more than his parent's, no?

yeah it seems like to me it's a good thing they didn't judge her on her intelligence if she doesn't get this is a good thing not a bad thing.

I would laugh and appreciate it! It's basically saying that you have great qualities.

OP, your life isnt f*** up. Genes make up your physical appearance and characteristics of who you are. your bf parents just basically said that ur attractive and fit to produce healthy babies. So take it as a compliment :)

How is this an FML? Do you think you would be a good addition to their gene pool if you were mean and stupid? At least they like you. Get over it.
