Today, I spent two hours making dinner for my boyfriend's family. When I brought it over to their house they said "thanks" and didn't bother to invite me to stay to eat it. FML

Today, I spent hours cooking an amazing dinner for my family, who had just gotten home from a trip, so we could spend some time together because I'd started to miss everyone. When they got home, they saw it all laid out and just took plates to their room, without even telling me they were home. 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
Today, my whole family made an hour-long drive to a restaurant that's just a few minutes away from my place. I wasn't invited. FML
Today, my boyfriend stood me up. At dinner with his parents. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I spent all day preparing an amazing meal for my extended family, and then 3 hours before dinner his crazy mother forced him home because she felt "excluded". He's spent the past 3 days with her. There's no way for me to keep him and get rid of her. FML
Today, I invited a friend over for dinner and spent hours preparing a fancy meal. When I opened the door, he walked in with his new girlfriend, his mom, his sister, and his dog. I barely had enough food for one, let alone five. I ended up serving my fancy meal on paper plates. FML
Today, I was invited to my boyfriend's house for dinner for the first time. His mom made a fantastic dinner, so I showed my appreciation by eating the lot. Apparently I was overdoing it because when I looked up everyone was staring. His dad muttered, "Slow the hell down." FML
Today, my boyfriend took me home to have dinner with his parents. I couldn’t eat a single bite after watching his mom let her three dogs taste all the food off her hands, while she also licked her own fingers while cooking. Later on, he dumped me for being rude and “too high maintenance." FML
Today, my boyfriend came home and demanded dinner. I started suggesting things, but he threw out that we should just fend for ourselves. I made pasta and offered him some, but he decided to throw a fit and go to bed at 6:30pm without dinner. He then woke up at 9 to complain he was hungry, then slept on the couch. FML
Today, I spent hours cooking dinner for my date. When they arrived, they told me that I'd probably not paid much attention to their dating profile, as it clearly mentioned that they were vegan, and thus couldn't eat any of the food I'd prepared. FML

At least now you know they're not worth expending any effort for.

You should have said "Now that you saw my food I guess I'll be leaving with it, I just wanted to show you how delicious it was!!"

They probably thought it was a given that you were staying to eat. I mean, unless they literally told you to leave I'm sure they were left wondering why you didn't stay to eat with them.

maybe theeir family is having some drama. i know theirs been times in our house when my sister and my mom get in a huge fight around dinner time and if someone came over my dad would quietly and nicely accept and thank them, then close the door and go through and awkward night. and thats just ONEEE example. dont assume the worst op your life isnt ****** and ydi for thinking it is

Hmm...I'm really sorry. The right thing for them to do is offer for you to stay and join them...but maybe it was given that you'd be joining them. I'd be confused as well in the situation; I need people to make it clear that I'm invited. That really does blow though :( FYL.

Did they ask you to make them food, or did you just randomly show up with it? If they asked for it, then they are total asses. If you just randomly brought it over, then there could be a ton of reasons why they didn't invite you to stay. Talk to your boyfriend about it, it may have been a misunderstanding. If they don't like you, don't automatically leave your boyfriend. As long as he stands up for you, his family's opinion of you doesn't really matter.

If I made food for my fiance's mother and brought it over, it would be an open invitation for me to stay and eat. MAYBE they assumed you didn't need an invite? I don't know how people think though.. so..
