Today, my parents finally got married. At the after-party, my mother got drunk and informed me that even though she and my father were now married, it doesn't change the fact that I'm still a bastard. FML

Today, I found out that my father, who very recently lost his wife, decided that drunkenly hitting on my long-time boyfriend's mom was a good idea. FML

Today, I married the love of my life. I was ecstatic until the wedding reception, where my new husband got drunk and started crying about how he'd been "forced" into marrying me. FML

Today I'm second-guessing getting married because my husband was wonderful to my family, but horribly disrespectful and rude to his own family the whole day. FML

Today, my father in law drunkenly announced at dinner that he wished my husband had married my best friend. No one stuck up for me. Not even my husband. FML

Today, my husband came home drunk off his ass at 2am. He started crying on my shoulder because he couldn't go home with some beautiful woman who hit on him, because sadly for him, he's married to me. FML

Set a boundary and expectations. If he can't make you the priority, get out.

He sounds codependent, see if he'll go to Al-Anon (it's for those affected by loved ones' alcoholism)

You can tell him his parents are adults and he can't keep enabling them, that you should be his priority now. Hopefully he will listen to you but if not, time for an annulment/divorce.

What gives you the right to demand priority over his parents?

The fact that they are married and hopefully trying to build a future together. Also, him enabling his parents is not like he's helping, he's doing the opposite. He will likely lose them to alcohol and the spouse due to neglect.
