quit fucking up my life Kenai, United States

Today, my dad met my boyfriend for the first time. He soon "casually" took a huge knife from the kitchen drawer and told my boyfriend that he's always wondered what it'd be like to stab someone. FML

Is he ******* crazy? What the hell is wrong with him? He's going about this all wrong. That's way too direct. The correct thing to say is, "I have a rusty scalpel, plenty of lidocaine, and an intimate knowledge of male anatomy. Have a nice time tonight."

Did he stab him?!?!??

I believe your all over-thinking this. Fathers ruffling the feathers of would be boyfriends is a tradition that all boys had to face when dating daughters. My father always showed his gun collection to my sisters boyfriends when meeting the first time. I had to go through it when meeting fathers as well, then you get to talk to brothers if any are present. Its almost a right of passage and more importantly they want to see your reaction to determine what kind of person you are. I always told em that I understood and then threw a quick quip in there to ease tension... So far, never met a father who didn't like me, but then again, never gave em a reason to follow through with said threat. Quit being so sensetive. This used to be handled with a "Stop scaring him dad!".

Sounds like my husband except he said he's doing it with a gun

Guess your Dad didn't like your bf OP? Don't worry, Im in a 5 year relationship, dad hasn't met my bf/bd and he wants to kill him.

Sounds like my dad. Aren't they awesome :)

The proper thing for any boyfriend to say in such a situation is, "my dad's a lawyer, I've always wondered what it would be like to sue for millions in compensation".

I see no problem here.

What is with these borderline incestuous paternal responses to daughters dating? It's strange. Granted your boyfriend isn't a complete douchebag, your father should be happy for you.

that's me in 16 years!

Yep if I were to have a father in law it's be that kinda man with his knife

.... That escalated quickly
