Today, it was my engagement party. All was going fabulously, until my fiancé's dad decided to give us a toast, and completely forgot my name in front of all my family and friends. I've been with his son for 7 years. FML

Today, I was at my girlfriend’s family dinner when her father suddenly raised a glass and said, “Let’s all raise a toast to the new couple!” I looked at my girlfriend, confused, only to realize he meant her brother and his now fiancé, who had just announced their engagement an hour earlier. I quickly but awkwardly raised my glass to avoid admitting my memory is dogshit. FML

"To my son getting married to...what's her name again?"

FYL double: (1) He forgot your name. (after 7 years of dating his son) (2) Your Father-in-law (to be) is too stupid to improvise and refer to you as "the bride to be" or "my future daughter-in-law"

I bet she remembers your tots.

Let blame all the drinks he had before the toast for this mishap! I would.

I always try and do a name-check before or as soon as I'm at a place where I'm supposed to remember names, I'll just secretly ask a close friend or something. In fact it's been a year at my sixth form and I still don't know some people's names in my class, pretty bad to be honest. FYL

"To that chick my son is boning" That kinda sucks. :P

Just assume he's an old fart with altzheimers.

I agree that sucks but it's still way more embarrassing for him than for you

So its your fiancée's dad, but you're his son for 7 years? What are y'all the Brady brunch?! YDI for marrying you're 7-year step-sister!
