Today, my boyfriend is always telling me I haven’t met his real mother yet, even though I’ve known her a year. However, when I happened to disagree with her today, she started screaming and hitting like a psycho. He had to wrestle her out the door. I get it now; I’ve now met his “real” mother. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, after waiting for two weeks for the right moment to meet my boyfriend's mom, she walked in as I was straddling him, trying to prove that I'd win in a wrestling match. I guess we met, then. FML
Today, my mother met my boyfriend. She thought it would be appropriate to tell him that he looks just like my ex-husband. FML
Today, I met my boyfriend's parents for the first time. I thought everything went well, until I got a text from him later saying, "Come on mom, she isn't THAT bad." FML
Today, I met my boyfriend's parents. We've been dating for almost 5 months and are extremely in love. His mom basically said to me, "I want what’s best for my son and you aren’t it." FML
Today, I found out my boyfriend's mother thinks I'm a loser and a scumbag. We haven't even met yet. FML
Today, my parents met my boyfriend, and to say it went badly is an understatement. My mom went outside to relax by chain smoking and the shouting, and the screaming only ended when my dad took my boyfriend by the scruff of the neck and threw him out the front door into the street. FML
Today, my boyfriend said angrily that he should never have gotten together with me, that he should have known a woman with divorced parents would have daddy issues, and never be quite right in the head. His own parents are divorced by the way, and his mom is extremely overbearing. FML
Today, my boyfriend's mum said she won't stop us from seeing each other, yet she'll only allow me to see him for 30 minutes a day, for 2 days a week, and gets mad if he sees me for any longer, because "mother knows best." FML
Today, I overheard my mom’s boyfriend viciously berating and verbally abusing her. I got in his face and started yelling that he can’t talk to her that way. He stormed out and we haven’t heard from him since. Now my mom is pissed and wants to kick me out for “ruining” her relationship. Sorry I guess. FML
Today, I found out my boyfriend's mom still refers to his ex as 'the daughter she never had.' FML

If your partner can't cut his toxic mother out of both of your lives, maybe reconsider being with him.

I have a Mother-In-Law that did this. Easy fix. I pulled a restraining order on her. If my wife wants to talk to her, she can go alone, or talk on phone. It’s a compromise I made when marrying my wife. But my SO’s family is on par with Nikko Jenkins-Level of insanity (look him up, he’s a local psychotic serial killer). To they point they filed several false criminal charges against me (which were all found bogus) and the last time they tried (due to restraining order) it got my in-laws arrested, plus on FBI investigation. There are ways to deal with this, but it does involve compromise and communication. He can’t control his mom, but you CAN limit your interactions with them.

Buh-bye. You don't marry the guy, you marry the family. Next!

You pressed charges for assault, right? If she started hitting, that is definitely grounds for a call to the cops.
