Today, my boyfriend drove me back home. My dad was sitting on the porch in his underwear, with his shotgun in his lap. He stroked the gun, looked my boyfriend dead in the eyes, and slowly shook his head. Now my boyfriend refuses to see me for his own safety. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my boyfriend picked me up to take me on a date. Just as we were about to drive away, my dad ran out of the house in his underwear and started yelling that he'd kill my boyfriend if I wasn't back home within the hour. FML
Today, my dad was driving me home and was angrily explaining how my boyfriend was a bad influence and that he was hanging out with the wrong crowd. After finally convincing him to give him another chance, we stopped at a traffic light just in time to see my boyfriend being chased by police. FML
Today, my dad walked into my school and joked around saying that he's going to shoot my boyfriend. We all laughed. Except my boyfriend. He was sobbing in a corner. FML
Today, my dad joked he’d have to fight my boyfriend to find out if he’s worthy. My boyfriend grew up abused by his dad and older brothers, and has a powerful instinct to fight back. My dad is now out cold on the floor and my boyfriend is in the corner rocking back and forth and crying. FML
Today, I came home early, and my boyfriend's car was in my driveway. Inside, he was talking to my parents. He walked right past me and left. My mother then says, "He wanted me to tell you it's over." FML
Today, my boyfriend's car broke down on the way to the gym, so he called his dad to give us a ride. On the way, his dad talked about how much he hates me and our relationship, as if I wasn’t sitting in the back seat directly behind them. FML
Today, my parents met my boyfriend, and to say it went badly is an understatement. My mom went outside to relax by chain smoking and the shouting, and the screaming only ended when my dad took my boyfriend by the scruff of the neck and threw him out the front door into the street. FML
Today, my boyfriend has never gotten along with my dad, but this afternoon during what I thought was a completely normal conversation, he just stood up, yelled he couldn’t take my dad anymore, punched him in the nose, dumped me, and drove away. FML
Today, I was getting ready for my first date with a boy I really like when my dad insisted on meeting him. My dad is super protective and a cop. He cleaned his gun in front of my date and made it clear he had to be careful with me. My date started to cry when we got to the car. FML
Today, I asked my boyfriend, who’s a massage therapist, if he could help my mom with her chronic migraines by massaging her head and neck. My dad came home, saw them in the dimly lit room and knocked my boyfriend out cold for "touching his woman." My boyfriend dumped me and wants my dad arrested. FML

The fact of the matter being we need to know more information before making any assumptions. Maybe the boyfriend did something to deserve it for all we know. Maybe it was after 12 or whatever time the father approved of being home, and then again maybe the dad truly is crazy and wanted to harm him. We can assume none of this however from the information provided

Why do dads feel this extreme shit is necessary with daughters? Do they want their daughter to never get married? Scaring away every potential long term BF away is a good way to ensure you will remain single and lonely. But at the same time, are proud of their son when he dates. Wth

Because dads know there are assholes out there whose only interest in girls/women is to have a warm pussy to wet their willy in.

@85 I can't believe you're actually condoning death threats for missing a curfew. I really understand the guy; better leave when you can. Why would you want to wait for your first argument?

Your dad needs to get some help, OP. That is far from an appropriate reaction and it actually encourages girls to date the wrong men. My parents let me choose for myself. I have only been intimate with one man, and I am STILL with him. My classmate growing up, however, had a dad just like yours...she had three kids before grade 11. From different fathers.

sounds like a pretty good dad. I've had different versions of that happen to me. its usually just a scare tactic. if the kid doesnt have bad intentions, he usually doesn't have anything to worry about.
