Today, I took my girlfriend to meet my parents. My dad thought it'd be hilarious to act surprised and ask me if I'd already dumped the girlfriend I introduced him to yesterday. She slapped me and stormed out of the house before my dad could tell her it was a joke. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I introduced my girlfriend to my dad. I thought it was a good idea at the time, at least until he took her aside for a private chat. During the chat, he told her all about my two previous marriages and advised her to "get out while you can". FML
Today, I took my girlfriend home to meet my parents. They thought it'd be hilarious to put on ridiculous accents and act like country hicks, spewing obscenities and strongly hinting that we're into incest. She soon left in disgust. I haven't heard back from her since. FML
Today, I finally invited my girlfriend over to meet my oddball parents. The first words out of my dad's mouth were, "So, you're the silly girl who agreed to date my dickhead son." It went downhill from there. FML
Today, I joked with my dad, saying I'd gotten my boyfriend pregnant. In response, he slapped me, threw my phone across the room, smashed my laptop, and then took a moment for what I'd said to sink in. FML
Today, I brought my girlfriend home to introduce to my parents. My dad thought it would be hilarious to fill some clear bags full of flour, then pretend he was sampling a cocaine shipment when she arrived. She excused herself very quickly and isn't answering my calls. FML
Today, I met my girlfriend's parents. Her father looked me up and down, said, “No” then went back to his TV. My girlfriend immediately broke up with me and threw me out. I even had to get a really expensive taxi home, because we’d driven in her car and I had no idea what part of the city I was in. FML
Today, my boyfriend met my parents. Within minutes, my dad managed to verbally sever his balls and reduce him to tears, "just for fun" apparently. FML
Today, I introduced my dad to my boyfriend. I gave my dad the middle finger and he thumped me on the head, as we've been playfully doing for years. My boyfriend got all mad and tried to fight my dad. FML
Today, I took my girlfriend home to meet my parents. My dad was having a bad day and was rude from the outset, but things went to total hell when he started screaming that he'd "kill" our microwave if it didn't "shut the hell up". My girlfriend now thinks we're a family of abusive psychos. 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

I'm sure everything will be ok if your dad explains to her that it was just a joke. Then you can hopefully laugh about it.

First of all, I can't stand girls who feel the need to slap people to make a point. For a generation raised with "time outs" because physical punishment just makes people think it's ok to hit, you sure are quick with your hands. Second, Princess needs to get over herself and get a sense of humor. Many, many years ago (I was 15), my first boyfriend's dad made a similar comment when we were introduced. My response was along the lines of "He likes me because I helped him hide the body". Everyone laughed, and no one got slapped.

You know what I can't stand, women that derisively call other women "princess", it's disgusting to talk down to someone and hints at a bad attitude.

Know what?? I'm likely old enough to be your mother. Suck it up. Princess.

Oh shut up with your stupid 'princess'. You don't have to down-grade other people, it just makes you look insecure.. And what the heck does age has to do with anything?...

She over reacted. I would have laughed and said a joke back to your dad.

She didn't overreact, she just didn't know it was a joke.

Girls are so belligerent these days

Good joke. Bad outcome. Hopefully she realizes that he was joking and comes back. Although personally, I couldn't date someone without a sense of humor. Hopefully that isn't the case

Lot's of people don't take being cheated on as a joke well. That's pretty common knowledge by this point. I'm all for joking about almost anything, but you have 1 know your audience and be aware that certain jokes are generally not going to go over well.

Dodged a bullet there. Bitch can't take a joke, you're better off.

Wow what a funny joke!! Her boyfriend's dad basically just told her that her boyfriend was cheating on her -.- she was upset!

I'm assuming she didn't know it was a joke, there's no reason to call her a bitch.

How did I know people were going to resort to judging and name calling this girl simply because she fell for a joke.
SMHsohard 22
Oh, no, can't play that card here. This is FML. You take your chances how people are going to respond in a given situation. Can't feel sorry for yourself if opinion doesn't swing the way you want it to.

Beacause she assaulted him over it.

Really a guy takes his girlfriend home to meet parents. It would seem they had been together at least one other time. She reacted awfully fast with a slap. Sounds like the girlfriend needs to grow up.

I don't get how that's supposed to be funny
