Today, my boyfriend asked my father for permission to marry me. My father refused, on the basis that I'm the only person in the house with a job, and if I leave he will have to start looking for work. My boyfriend won't marry me without his permission, and my lazy father won't change his mind. FML

That's really selfish of him. He should want to see you happy, he shouldn't be depending on your money all of the time. I mean, he's your dad and he's done a lot for you so I don't blame him for depending on your money but the fact that he won't let you get married because he wants you to continue working to give him the money is just ridiculous.. He should try to find a job though because one day, you're going to eventually get married, you won't be around forever.

Story of my life right here. My mother has decided that while I have every intention of moving out when I get my disability I should share the money at home. That we need to help each other out just like when my brother got money and I got 60 and I should've been grateful for that. I get 200 a month which I have to use to pay my own phone bill and that's to take care of three people. If I get extra then it comes out of the next months money and I have two very lazy parents who apparently think I should stay home to pay rent and still take care of them. My brother who doesn't do anything for himself pays nothing and doesn't help with them has his own room. I will do some help but I'm not giving up all my money for them I'm going to use it to move out of here and set up my own place.

So...move in with the boyfriend so that your father has to get his own job and then all of your problems are solved?

Move in with your boyfriend. Don't give him a choice.

your father is a selfish, lazy piece of shit and he should marry you anyways!

Asking isn't classy, it's disrespectful to the woman. Like she's her father's property or still a child or something.
