Today, my boyfriend's parents decided that I was untrustworthy and that if they ever saw him with me he'd be heavily punished. They're travelling hundreds of miles just to make sure he stays in the house and doesn't talk to me. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, my boyfriend went to the beach. His parents relentlessly tried to hook him with other girls, all the while knowing that we're dating. Their reasoning is that I'm not a 'real girlfriend.' FML
Today, my parents lectured me on whether it was a good idea to let my girlfriend stay at the home of her ex boyfriend… and his husband. I’m 44 and trust her. My parents didn’t trust this logic and doubled down. FML
Today, I found the courage to tell my parents about my boyfriend. They simply reacted by lecturing me about how much he'll ruin my life, and how much they don't like him. They haven't met him yet. FML
Today, my parents met my boyfriend for the first time. They spent the entire meal trying to convince him to dump me, all while I was sitting right next to him. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me all about how his parents sat him down last night and had a 20 minute talk with him about how I'm the biggest mistake he'll ever make. FML
Today, I overheard my boyfriend talking to his mom about me. It sounded like they were planning something for me, like a marriage. They were planning how to break up with me. FML
Today, I found out why my dad doesn't want my girlfriend coming to our house anymore. Apparently, her dad used to bully him a lot during high school and he's never gotten over it. He's threatened to disown me if she comes back over here. FML
Today, my boyfriend met my parents, siblings, and some other family members. Thirty minutes later, he broke up with me and stormed out, yelling no way was he staying with me because they’re all fucking psychotic. He's my second boyfriend driven away by my family. FML
Today, after I spent a weekend at my boyfriend’s house, I came home to find the locks changed. My parents decided to change them because they “don’t need me slutting around under their roof.” My boyfriend lives 4 hours away and I have nothing but an overnight bag. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me he was going away for the weekend to go clubbing with his mates. I would be fine with it, except the mates he's going with already tried to get him to cheat on me. FML

Sounds like they don't trust him very much either. Always going to be some controlling parents out there but this is a new level

If he is over 20 they need to mind their own business

The real meaning of strict parents create sneaky kids. As if controlling will make anything better, plus apart from that i'll just break the connection between parents and son. He should man up and stand for what's worth in his life and not just: hey whatsoever i'll let them decide how I want to live.

For the first time in my life someone needs a restraining order even if they are family.

Wow. What the hell did you even do to make them that pissed at you? They sound overprotective AF!

Reminds me of how some of my bf's family treated me when we first met. And hell, we weren't even dating yet, and that didn't stop his dad from accusing me of being a troublemaking ***** that would get him sent to jail in six months. At that point we were both adults and he didn't live with them either. It's been several years, we're still together and he doesn't seem to recall how shitty he treated us both. But your bf can just brush them off and get on with life without em.

it sounds like you need a new boyfriend if his parents are that against you unless the two of you are adults then f*** them because he should be able to make his own decisions on who he dates and if he won't stand up to them then get a new boyfriend there's plenty of fish in the sea

Tell him to get a restraining order. They are being abusive.
