Today, I called my mom to see how she was doing. She quickly hijacked the conversation and said that she's signed me up for a dating site, because she feels bad that I can't find a decent man. I've been dating my boyfriend for seven months, and she's seen me with him multiple times. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I woke up to an email confirming my membership to a dating site. Turns out my mother is as annoyed by my loveless life as I am. FML
Today, I signed up for a dating site and used a photo of my mother and me at a wedding. Everyone stops responding when they find out they're talking to me and not her. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me that my mom paid him to date me. FML
Today, I overheard my mother Skyping with her new "boyfriend" about the $1,000 she just sent him. She barely knew what internet dating was three weeks ago. FML
Today, a woman turned up uninvited at my house, ready for our first date. After some embarrassed investigating, it turns out my mother signed me up to Tinder and arranged a date, all without telling me, because she refuses to believe I prefer solitude over dating. FML
Today, I was at dinner with my boyfriend and his family. We were talking about relationships, and I commented on how online dating was the dumbest thing ever. His mom and step-dad went on to tell me how they had met through an online dating service. FML
Today, my mom called me and asked me to fix her computer, three days after saying she never wanted to see me again for dating a boy. I got lectured to on how I'm ruining my life the whole time. FML
Today, I found out my mom pretended to be me and had AIM conversations with my boyfriend. FML
Today, I asked my mom about signing up for an online dating site. She took one look at me and said, "Why get rejected online when you can just go outside for the same?" FML
Today, my girlfriend told me she wanted get to know my mom, so they went off and had a chat. After an hour, I noticed my girlfriend was gone and my mom was waiting for me. Apparently I've been dumped through my mother. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Key word, here, perhaps: 'decent'.

Op must be Selena Gomez. Justin Bieber isn't a decent boyfriend. Or girlfriend. Or singer.

Maybe your mom has noticed something about your boyfriend that you haven't? Doesn't hurt to reevaluate your relationship. If your mom is just being a bitch, FYL.

That's her way of saying shes been banging your boyfriend and it's time for you to find someone else to pleasure her.

Ask your boyfriend to be the best gentleman possible. I'm talking tux, Rolex and a popular male perfume. If your mum is still not convinced, screw her (metaphorically).

And literally ;) Wait what?!?!?!?!?

Ew. A tuxedo, an exorbitantly expensive watch and some crap mass-produced designer fragrance swill makes a man a true gentleman? That sounds like a Ken doll. And here I thought good values, respect for one another and oneself and a great sense of humor were true assets. Huh. Guess I learned something new today.

Princess - If you mistook my comment for being literal, I am sorry. It is a joke. I don't know what makes the perfect gentlemen and probably never will. And I completely agree with good values, respect and true assets.

Doesn't even look like a joke, not even funny.

Have you formally introduced him to her? She might have thought he was just a friend.

It sounds like the only man that's good enough for you is the one she picks out. Good luck!

On the same note, my mom is married to the guy she was thinking of introducing me to 8 years ago. She had the same idea your mom does only it turns out she really liked him and he her. So now i call him "Daddy." lol. I don't, but we get along well enough.

yeah, now OP knows what her mom thinks of her boyfriend. :-(

Lol doesn't sound like she likes him :D

Oh my gosh, really? What the hell, I would have never known!

She maybe doesn't know that he is your boyfriend. Tell her she maybe have gotten confused.

Emphasis on 'decent'

Well you mom doesn't think your boyfriend is decent and maybe shes on to something...we often are blinded in the early parts of a relationship and don't see the bad in others until its too late...happened to me, it took me 12 years to realize the man I married was totally wrong for me

Or maybe OP's mom just likes to kvetch, and nobody OP comes up with could possibly be good enough to suit her mom.
