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. ;) )

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Sounds like you should slap the woman.

Lmao. That's funny as hell, i totally see this happening to me in the future.. Follow your feelings, if you love him and are ready for the commitment, then by no means hesitate on account of your parents. Grats.

thanks for the clarification. And congrats!! at least your dad is cool. And your mom has no right, in that case, to chose who you are with as long as he is a good man. I guess she only wants the best for you... >>
