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!!"

I don't understand the way some people think... how would it be selfish of you to want some of the food you made? Lol I can picture it: "thanks! Okay you can go now" //pushes you out the door

I can see both sides of this. It seems a little selfish of you to do something nice and then automatically expect something in return. If someone just handed me a plate of food and said "here i made this for you" i would probably have the same reaction as your boyfriends parents. If they really wanted some of their own food, they can just make it themself. They don't need me to serve it to them. But at the same time, I can see why this would be seen as rude and standoffish.

That's ridiculous! Was your boyfriend there? Why the hell didn't he speak up?!? Sounds like a bit of an asshole to me!

Why exactly were you cooking them dinner? Just decided one night Hey i'm going to cook you dinner and bring it over? Why not have them over for dinner, or you and your boyfriend could cook there. The only reason i would think of of bringing them dinner is if some one dies, and thats what you do, bring stuff to the family and they don't ask you to have brunch then.

I agree with #8. Some people just weren't raised to do certain things. I personally would have just said thank you and accepted it as a nice gesture.
