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

ThanksMom tells us more.

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.

Your mom better face it. The sooner, the better. And I'm sorry for your husband-to-be, since he's not going to have it peachy with his mother in law for some time... I hope one day your mother can get over herself and just accept your decisions with respect.

That really sucks sorry :(

sounds like something my mom would do..

Oh wow....well I'm really sorry that sucks. I've been on the guys perspective before and the whole thing is a no win situation....

Did you say yes or no? If you love him you should say yes! **** your mom. No offense...

What did you tell him???

I would hate to have a Mom like yours

What kind of mom does that? All that should matter to her is that you're happy.

You know when you hear the wife in the marriage say "I wish I listened to my mother"? learn from their mistakes because simple incidents become an entire life of misery

That's harsh, you would think that she would be nice enough to at least not rain on your parade
