Today, I was at my boyfriend's house. I've been a vegetarian for 4 years, and his mother made lasagna with meat in it. After telling her I don't eat meat, my boyfriend's father says, "We know whose meat she does eat." My boyfriend, his mother, and I were standing right there. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was at my boyfriend's house for dinner with his family. His mom cooked up a steak dinner, except that I'm a vegan, but trying to be a good girlfriend, I forced it down. Upon his mother finding out I was a vegan, she called me "disloyal to my beliefs." FML
Today, after being a vegetarian for 5 years, I found out that my boyfriend of 2 years has secretly been feeding me meat. His reason is that he thinks it's "funny" that I still call myself a vegetarian afterwards. FML
Today, I saw my mom sneaking meat into her spaghetti sauce. She told me she sneaks meat into most of the food she cooks. I've been a vegetarian for 8 years. FML
Today, my parents finally invited my boyfriend over for dinner. Everything was going great until my mother asked him his profession. He stuffed his mouth full of lasagna, snorted, and then responded, "I clean shit for a living." FML
Today, my boyfriend called my mother stupid and angrily argued with her at a family dinner. Why? We have a long-running family joke that "Vegan food doesn't contain calories," and my boyfriend thought my mum said it seriously, and was therefore a moron. FML
Today, my ex-boyfriend called to tell me that he had always made a point to eat some form of meat before making out with me. He'd known I was a vegetarian since the day we met. FML
Today, I was at a barbeque with my family, my boyfriend, and some mutual acquaintances. Someone jokingly called my boyfriend a pussy, to which he loudly replied, "I guess I am what I eat!" My mother was sitting across from us. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me the sauce he made for our dinner that was meat-based, trying to show me how nice meat is and stop me being a weirdo vegan. The reason I’m vegan is because my digestive system can’t handle animal protein. I’m writing this from the bathroom, vomiting myself to death. FML
Today, my parents invited my Muslim boyfriend over for dinner for the first time. My mother made sure that everything including the salad had pork in it. FML
Today, I admitted to my mother that I've had sex with my boyfriend. She seemed to handle it well, but when my boyfriend came over, she condemned him to hell in between asking him what he would like to have for dinner. FML

boyfriends fault imo. If I were having my girlfriend over I'd make sure my mom knew she was a vegetarian. Dad sounds like a cool guy though

Awkwarddd lol. The people that are saying it was rude of her to turn down the meal are ignorant. You need to understand that there's diversity and not everyone eats the same things. Some people eat meat, some people don't eat meat. It's as simple as that. I'm a vegetarian and I'd be pissed off if anyone tried to force me to eat meat, even thought they knew I didn't. I don't go around forcing meat-lovers to eat vegetarian food, so I'd appreciate if they'd do the same. You say "Oh, why don't you just grow up and appreciate whatever is on your plate. You're so impolite" Well, why don't you accept the fact that not everyone has the same taste or views. I'm sorry, I don't know how strong your views are.. but I wouldn't stop being a vegetarian just for someone else. That would be pretty weak. It's MY choice, not someone else's. Some people here clearly don't understand this, I'm sure everyone is strongly biased on certain issues. Would you be okay with people telling you that your beliefs are rude and that you should change them in order to please others? The original poster could have just politely declined, but didn't have enough room to type that. FMLs have to be short and sweet. If she didn't, well that doesn't mean that all vegetarians are rude.

ROFL, but still.... I heard that if you don't eat meat at all at a very young age (for the guys) for the duration of puberty, you are not going to develop that well. you need meat (protein, but they are probably alternatives) for you to 'grow'. I don't know if its true or not, just saying. Everybody wants to 'grow'... hopefully.

I can sympathize with both, awkward comments from the boyfriends parents and having something put in front of you that you don't eat Although depending on how long you've been with this guy and how often yall go out to eat, maybe your boyfriend should've noticed that you're a vegetarian.
