Today, I met my boyfriend's parents for the first time. I'm already a clumsy person but became extra clumsy because I was nervous. After knocking over my drink for the fourth time, my boyfriend's mom angrily shouted "Did you actually come drunk for the first time meeting us?" FML

4 times... wow... twice... okay, but 4? Anyway, it sucks that that is the first impression they have of you, but let's hope your boyfriend clears your name, and the next time you meet them concentrate on being extremely careful, as to not further damage your reputation.

how does nervousness translate to drunk? Ive been both plenty of times, and they're very different attitudes. its easy enough just to mention that you're kind of nervous. I would think that any parent who dated or had a social life of their own can understand. either that or they're just asses, in which case you shouldn't worry about impressing them so much anyway.

What a bitch! Perhaps you should try beta blockers (they help prevent anxiety/attacks of nerves)? Bananas contain them naturally. I'm in the performing arts and know a lot of people who use bananas or beta blockers in pill form to control their nerves.

"No, ma'am, i have Alzheimer (how do you feel about yourself now?)" That should do the trick. Peter Griffin style! =D

You should have told her, "No cerebal palsy runs in my family." Sure it would have been a lie, but wouldn't it be worth it for the look on her face?

yeah, 4 times is a little excessive... have your bf go to bat for you and try to be EXTRA careful the nest time you all get together. and his mom owes you an apology.

aw, that's so cruel of her. and i love nervous girls, wanna date ? :-D

Wow, your boyfriends Mom needs to clean the sand out of her ******.

I can understand if she was angry because she had to keep cleaning it up, but ****! She sounds like a bitch. How dare her accuse you of being drunk, when you were clearly just nervous?! It's not like you were exhibiting other signs of intoxication, anyway. Jeez. You should've excused yourself and gone home. What a frickin' bitch. I agree with #49. #46 - effing genius!! I soo would've done that!
