Today, I got married to the man I love even though my whole family told me not to marry him. He got into a drunken fight at our wedding and is now in jail. He apparently won't be getting out any time soon due to charges I didn't know about. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I married the love of my life. I was ecstatic until the wedding reception, where my new husband got drunk and started crying about how he'd been "forced" into marrying me. FML
Today, I had to go get my fiancé's car so it wouldn't get impounded after he was arrested at 12 a.m. and charged with a felony. I just got out of prison in March, and we get married next week. FML
Today, my parents informed that the man I'm going to marry had made it into the newspaper, on page twelve. He is listed as a fugitive and there is a warrant out for his arrest. FML
Today, my boyfriend came home drunk. As he got home he asked me to marry him, I was going to say yes until he said, "Oh wait, wrong woman." FML
Today, I was supposed to get married. I called it off only 20 minutes before the ceremony was supposed to begin because I saw my fiance punch his own mother in the face. FML
Today, during my wedding ceremony, the groom-to-be found it appropriate to blurt out about an ongoing affair with my maid of honor. They got married instead. FML
Today, I got married. During the reception my husband got drunk and told 200+ people that we met at a dingy bar and that we "totally banged" all night. I don't know what's worse, the fact he embarrassed me in front of everyone I know, or if it was that that was not how we met. Not even close. FML
Today, I was supposed to get married. Instead, my sister made up a story about me cheating on my fiancé at the bachelorette party. He bought it and dumped me, despite there being no evidence of this. Turns out it was all a plan because they were secretly seeing each other for months. FML
Today, my husband came home drunk off his ass at 2am. He started crying on my shoulder because he couldn't go home with some beautiful woman who hit on him, because sadly for him, he's married to me. FML
Today, I married my best friend in the whole world at a small romantic venue. By that I mean I married my actual best mate while completely hammered at a drive-through wedding chapel. My fiancée is gonna kill me when she finds out. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Well good news is, since he got drunk enough on your special day, to be put in jail before you consummated your marriage, you could probably get it annulled quite easily... If he's lied to you about his legal troubles before he's probably not gonna stop any time soon OP. Best of luck to you.

I guess your family had a pretty valid reason for you not to marry him

New Jersey. His charges are probably for failing to show up at court - because of a jaywalking ticket. He didn't show because he was being cited outside the courthouse for jaywalking from the parking lot. 3 to 5 years.

Well you have two options, and in no particular order, you can have the marriage annulled, or you can work things out. If you want to work things out, it will probably be a long task, depending on the charges and his willingness to cooperate (if he isn't willing to do his part leave.) it will probably involve possible bail, maybe jail time or in severe cases, prison, court dates for sure, lawyers and if a suspended sentence, probable community service. It is a daunting task, and even if you decide to get an annulment, you should talk to your husband and see if there are things you can do to get him on the right track.

I feel your pain. I'm in Canada and my husband got deported back to the US for charges I didn't know about. Divorce impending, but he knocked me up first.

all this talk about annulment.... they aren't even legally married until she turns in the signed marriage license.

I also got married to a guy everyone told me not to marry. A little over a year later he had gotten two girls pregnant (one underage), gave me an STD, and then stabbed me 8 times. Get that annulled NOW, I don't want to see anyone go through something like what happened to me.

Sweet mother of Pearl... I hope you left him...

Should have listened, I guess. Annulment might still be valid. I'd consider it, if I were you.

I'm curious, what kind of charges does he have? I mean, it could theoretically be a relatively minor offense combined with crossing state lines. It could also be from getting screwed by dumb laws (for example, if you're caught urinating in public 3 times, you have to register as a sex offender).

If one person in your family doesn't like your significant other, they may be overreacting. If your ENTIRE family doesn't like him there's a very very good chance something is wrong with your s.o. Most families want what's best for their kids/siblings and it's a good idea to listen to them.* Sorry this happened. Hopefully you can work things out. *Yeah, I know some people have sucky families, but not everyone.
