Today, my mother yet again went on a long rant about how much of a loser I am as I have "never had boyfriend" and I'm 26. Truth is, I've been in the same relationship for over five years but it "doesn't count because he's black." FML

Today, my father informed me that I will have no chance of dating a good man if I keep up with these interracial relationships. And that he won't be supporting me through college if I continue this "rebellion." My boyfriend is half black and loves the same music, sports, and movies as my dad. FML
Today, my mother once again called me to remind me what a disappointment I am despite having two degrees, a house, a professional job and having never been unemployed at 25. FML
Today, I called my mom to see how she was doing. She quickly hijacked the conversation and said that she's signed me up for a dating site, because she feels bad that I can't find a decent man. I've been dating my boyfriend for seven months, and she's seen me with him multiple times. FML
Today, I found out that my mother has been purposely wrecking every relationship I've had since junior high because ''no one is good enough for her little girl''. FML
Today, my mom told me my relationship is a joke, because teenagers don't understand the meaning of relationships and commitment. I couldn't help but remind her how she's divorced three separate men to date. She hit me over the head so hard that snot flew out of my nose. FML
Today, I had no idea my mom was low key racist until I told her I was dating a black woman, and she told me that was fine, just as long as I didn’t do something silly like fall in love with her or let her distract me from finding a proper wife. Wow mom, just wow. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me, because apparently my mom hates him and doesn't want us to be together. My mom died six years ago. FML
Today, I had to explain to my white girlfriend that dating me doesn't give her the right to call my mother the N-word. FML
Today, I’ve been single for so long that my mom’s friends ask her if I’m a lesbian, all because I’m 35 and not married yet. Truth is, my last relationship fucked me up so bad that the thought of falling in love with someone again makes me physically ill. FML
Today, I was talking with my mother and expressed my slight disappointment at how many of my friends are getting into relationships, whereas I'm still single. My mother decided to encourage me by saying "Don't worry, sweetie. There are boys out there who don't go for looks. You'll be fine". FML

Once you went black, you never went back (to being single).

Aren't you glad you turned out fine and not like her? Sucks for you OP but the silver lining also is you grew to be a better person..

Let me guess your Mom often follows it up with the old "I'm not racist I have black friends" tripe?

Hey as long as you are happy who cares what anybody thinks.

If it comes to it, don't invite her to the wedding unless she apologizes.

I'm doubting she'll ever apologize. If she does, it's not going to be as sincere as it should be, considering she even refuses to believe they're even in a relationship.. Which is a shame, really.

I would probably not invite her anyway after being like that. It hurts me to hear you have a mother like that. Go with your true feelings - not the color - and definatively not by what your mother sais. its your life, not hers.

She could always ax her.... though that's highly frowned upon......

Sad old woman. I love interracial couples. They show that people aren't as ignorant as before and we are all progressing. Moving forward.

Your mom should be deported back to the 20th century where she belongs!

Honestly, if she's serious I'd either have a talk with her and try to work past her prejudices or tell her that how she thinks is not okay!
