Today, my boyfriend and parents went out to dinner. As we started the meal, my boyfriend proposed and the restaurant burst into applause. My mother said without hesitation and a large scowl, "If you say yes, I'm leaving." FML

Hi, FMLer here. The reason my mother said that was because she wanted me to get back together with my first boyfriend, though I've been with my new fiance for 5 years. She never got over me leaving my first and never accepted anyone after. And as you might have noticed in my previous paragraph- I said yes! (And by the way, my father told my mother if she leaves, he'd stay and wouldnt give her the car keys. ;) )

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.

His mom is a bitch as everyone said. But that being said, I absolutely hate people who propose in public. They give their partner a choice of either agreeing or getting into a very awkward situation, and use public pressure to make someone say what they want to hear instead of what the person's actual feelings are. All proposals must be made in private.
