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

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I went to my boyfriend's house to meet his parents. After hundreds of passive-aggressive comments, my boyfriend and I went into the kitchen. I started complaining to him about how his parents were horrible and mean. Little did I know, his parents had followed us in and were right behind me. FML
Today, wanting to break up with my boyfriend, I invited him to dinner with my parents. I was sure they'd hate him, which would give me the excuse I needed. They ended up loving him, and now they won't stop mentioning marriage. FML
Today, my parents met my boyfriend for the first time. They spent the entire meal trying to convince him to dump me, all while I was sitting right next to him. 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, 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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I don't understand all this negative reaction. It's perfectly normal for people to hold opinions of others whether positive or negative. And it assuming the BF has a close relationship with his family, their opinion DOES MATTER.

Wow, that's just rude and cold. I hope this doesn't ruin your relationship if you two really like each other.

Don't worry about it. My future mother in law hated me when she first met me but now things are so much better. I think she was worried about me corrupting her son and leading him astray but now she sees that I love him and I look after him. She makes me feel like part of the family and it is great! you'll get there-just give it time.

Urgh, hopefully they pull the stick out of their ass soon. Might just be overprotective of the son? If not, keep dating him just to piss them off :')

I'm going to go out on a limb and say YDI, only because we don't know what you did during dinner to make them feel that way. :)
