Today, my boyfriend was introducing me to some business partners. As he was going along telling me their names, when he introduced me, he called me by my best friend's name. FML

Today, I found out my boyfriend's parents consider me more of a clingy friend than a girlfriend. We have been together over 5 years. FML

Today, I brought my boyfriend of a year and a half to meet my parents. Turns out he dated my mom. This should be a fun dinner. FML

Today, I was introducing my boyfriend to my parents for the first time. I meant to say, "Mom, Dad, this is Tom." Instead, I said, "Mom, Dad, this is Mom." My boyfriend is now jokingly reconsidering our relationship, and my parents won't stop making fun of me. FML

Nice to meet you… again
Today, my mother invited me to a nice restaurant to meet her boyfriend whom she's been seriously dating for a month. Imagine my surprise when she led me to a table and my boyfriend's father stood up, shocked, to greet me. Rather than being horrified, she is now planning double dates every week. FML

Today, after dating someone for a year and a half, upon meeting his mother for the first time he'd told me she has bad anxiety and that he’s going to introduce me as his friend, and the only reason I was meeting her was because she was selling her deceased husband's car. FML

What a bitch. Introduce her as your boyfriends great grandmother.

10 years? And you're still his girlfriend? I think that may be the reason she referred to you as his friend. He either sucks at commitment or this is a very open relationship. Still a mean thing to do, of course.

Honestly, I'm not sure there's anything wrong here, my grandmother regularly calls the women I date my "friend" when introducing them to others. (One at a time, but it's happened with several different girlfriends over the years). It's not that my grandmother disrespects the relationship in any way, she just talks like that. I guess she finds the term "friend" more comfortable to say than trying to decide between "date", "girlfriend", "partner", "significant other", etc... Of course, boyfriend's mom might also be a bitch.

I dont even have the patience to wait 30 seconds for my computer to load. They say patience is a virtue, you must be a saint

At least in Hispanic families the boyfriend or the girlfriend are always introduced as the friend unless they are married or engaged
