Today, I proposed to my girlfriend. She said, "Sure, but not yet." As we've been together for five years, I was a bit confused, but she cleared that up with, "Not until your dad has died, I don't want him to ruin my wedding with a bad toast." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I proposed to my girlfriend at a dinner with our two families. Not only did she flatly reject me, my dad said, "Good call. He's not ready." FML
Today, after my girlfriend telling me for years that she would marry me in a heartbeat, I finally proposed. She said no. FML
Today, my girlfriend of two years finally agreed to marry me. As I went on with the proposal, her Grandma tried rejecting me by saying, "These guys have gangster friends." FML
Today, I told my boyfriend of ten months that I'm not ready for marriage. A few hours later he proposed at my grandma's 85th birthday party. She cried when I said no. FML
Today, I proposed to my girlfriend of 6 years. She said no. Why? She's already married. FML
Today, my girlfriend rejected my proposal, claiming she refuses to get married until she finally finds her dad, so he can walk her down the aisle. Babe, he walked out when you were 7 and hasn't been seen or contacted you since. Just say you don't wanna marry me so we can both move on. FML
Today, I proposed to my girlfriend. She got incredibly excited and started flapping her hands around. Then she suddenly went deadpan and said, "But seriously… No." FML
Today, I think my boyfriend of 5 years is going to propose soon. He told me he was thinking about it last year, and spoke to his parents, who said they wouldn't attend the wedding as "It's not their thing." My dad passed away in November and I don't talk to my mum, so I have no one to be excited with and share the news. FML
Today, I proposed to my girlfriend in public. She happily said yes, and the surrounding crowd cheered for us. About 10 minutes later, after the excitement died down, she leaned over and quietly said, "Actually, I don't want to marry you. I only said yes so I wouldn't disappoint the crowd." FML
Today, after pouring my heart out to my girlfriend of four years through a speech that took me three weeks to write, and then proposing, she responded, "Eh, why not." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Has she done the math? Unless he is in hospice care or over 70 already you could be looking a twenty more years of waiting. Come to think of it, even seventy isn't a safe enough number. Mine just turned 91. My question is really, is she worth that amount of time? Really?

Sorry it took 5 years for you to see how cold and heartless she really is but it's better now than never. Looks like it's time to move on, I'd say. It may hurt now but you'll be way better off in the end.

Guys, chill. I highly doubt the girlfriend was serious. My very first thought was that it was a joke in poor taste.

Exactly. More of a FML for the OP because it sounds like she said it during proposal, it's just an awkward and difficult response.

I would think a lot about marrying her. She sound like a very shallow person and one who is plotting a family members death. Red flags are flying high here.

The reason everyone says to run so easily is because marriages aren't ruined by huge catastrophes. Marriages are eroded away by small issues increase animosity and resentment over time. Sometimes it's better to realize it isn't going to work before the legal documents are signed. Her statement could be justified. Perhaps he is a known addict and has caused strife in the family before, as an example. Or it could just be she finds him annoying and is going to be a "brdiezilla." We don't know. But considering this ended up on FML I think the OP wanted his dad at the wedding. So, it causes me to lean toward the latter.
