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. ;) )

Hope you said yes

FYL, I'd say yes because I've always been a Daddy's Girl, so it wouldn't affect me if she left

I hope you said yes.

My mom is like that too. She loves to ruin any good moment in my life. She told me she had a bone to pick with me later and stomped off literally 2 mins before I walked down the aisle at my wedding.

I really hope you said yes.

Mother's do NOT have a sixth sense. I'll tell you why. There was this guy I was dating and his mother accused me of only wanting him for his money when I am the one who sent him money to eat when he had NO food because she wouldn't help him. Some parent's are WAY too involved in their adult children's lives and it is beyond disgusting. Especially if you're a man.
