Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I got a text message. It said, "I'm so drunk. What you up to, girl?" It was my dad. FML
Today, I was texting my boyfriend about yesterday, where he told me how much he loved me, and he wishes we lived closer. I asked him if he really meant it. Turns out he was drunk, and had no idea what he was talking about. FML
Today, I sent my boyfriend of three and a half years a text message spilling my heart out, saying I'll love him forever, and how much I appreciate him in my life, that I want to be the mother of his children, etc. His text back to me? "Are you drunk?!?" FML
Today, my dad came home drunk and called me hot. FML
Today, I came home to find my dad drinking. Trying to be cheerful, I greeted him with a "Hi, dad!" He sighed, shook his head, and said "It hurts me when you call me that." FML
Today, my dad seemed moody, so to lift his spirits, I told him I loved him. He just snorted, "You gay or something, boy?" Really mature, dad, really mature. FML
Today, my dad has been hitting the bottle, and will only respond to anything I say in a slurred rap. FML
Today, my dad got so drunk that he proposed to me. FML
Today, I told my Dad I was an alcoholic and had decided to seek help. His reply, "Don't stop drinking, you are the life of the party, funny and beautiful when you drink." FML
Today, I received a text from my dad, which was borderline-incomprehensible due to an insane amount of text language. I replied, jokingly asked if he had a stroke while writing it. A few seconds after hitting send, I remembered the stroke he suffered last month. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Just as almost everyone else has said, what he said was likely the truth. You should ask why he does that (ie. maybe he doesn't know how to show his emotions towards you) to gain some insight into his life. Your dad drinks for a reason; and he may also be a disconnected or irresponsible dad to you, but there's a reason why and you should find out why. Good Luck (if you actually read this)

awww. well a drunk mind speaks a sober heart =] at least he says it, even if it is while under the influence.

i think he was just appalled by you asking him if he was drunk when he said "i love you" which would result in his text back, which looks sarchastic because of the dots. but then again he randomly texted "i love you" to you which is a bit sketchy

I'm sorry but I also agree with other posters a drunk man speaks a sober man's mind. My father is a chronic alcoholic and he has never said anything nice to me in my whole life. At least he is thinking of you sometimes.

You know... According to Freud(sp?), being intoxicated opens up your unconcious mind which holds "the real you". Your dad might not know how to say it when he is sober, but once he loosens up he can say anything he wants.

that's sad.... I'm truely sorry. I've seen my dad drunk only a few times, and I hate him when he's like that, but one thing a can say is he sure is honest when he's drunk..... So know that your dad does love you, he might just be a little to rough around the edges to say it when he's sober.

Some parents (usually guys) can't share their emotions with other people very well.

#48: Are you stupid, or illiterate or both? And why would you care about #47's kid. #52: Stfu, just stop. If you don't care about a post, why comment? OP: That sucks, I'm so sorry. Druken words, are sober thoughts. My dad died when I was 2 so I never even got to say ily2 or anything. Just talk to him about it if it REALLLY bothers you, if not just remeber that he does love you and just doesn't know how to say it.
