Today, my boyfriend told me all about how his parents sat him down last night and had a 20 minute talk with him about how I'm the biggest mistake he'll ever make. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Today, my parents met my boyfriend for the first time. They spent the entire meal trying to convince him to dump me, all while I was sitting right next to him. FML
Prejudice
Today, I found the courage to tell my parents about my boyfriend. They simply reacted by lecturing me about how much he'll ruin my life, and how much they don't like him. They haven't met him yet. FML
Projection
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, I overheard my boyfriend talking to his mom about me. It sounded like they were planning something for me, like a marriage. They were planning how to break up with me. FML
Today, I heard my boyfriend talking with my father in the backyard. I thought he was asking for my hand in marriage. He was actually telling him about his plans to break up with me. FML
Today, I was invited by my boyfriend's parents for dinner at their house. The dinner went well I thought, until I was getting ready to leave. Before I could make it out the front door, I could hear them discussing their disappointment that their son would ever consider someone like me. FML
Trust
Today, my boyfriend's parents decided that I was untrustworthy and that if they ever saw him with me he'd be heavily punished. They're travelling hundreds of miles just to make sure he stays in the house and doesn't talk to me. FML
Today, my boyfriend proposed to me. Everything was going perfectly, right up until he brought me back to his house to tell his family the good news. When I excused myself to the restroom, I overheard his mom say, "I thought you were going to break up with that stupid slut?" Welcome to the family. FML
Awkward
Today, my boyfriend stood me up. At dinner with his parents. FML
Awkward small talk
Today, I went to my boyfriend's house, intending to break up with him. Instead, I was greeted by his whole family throwing me a surprise party. I had to sit and listen to his whole family talk about what a great couple we are and how we're going to last forever. FML

Well, look, just talk to him for about 20 minutes about how you're not that bad. Unless you are.

Get out now or trust me, they'll make your life miserable! I'm married 25 yrs., we have 2 grown kids, my inlaws are in their late 80's and they're still making my life hell! BTW, I treat them with love & respect & I get crap in return!

Hopefully you don't have a reason for them to believe that.

My boyfriends mom was the same way with me. She said I could be lying to him and really be a drug dealer or something. About a year later, and I'm like her daughter. Lol. It was made worse by the fact that I was his first girlfriend, he is an only child, and we moved in together pretty fast... She hated me for taking her baby boy... Lol. But they will get over it just like she did.

He may have made the mistake by saying so. I would never have told u that.

At least he told you. My parents sit me down alllll the time about my (((fiancé))), and we have been together for a year parents will never stop. At end of the day maybe his just respecting his parents and yet telling you it which means a lot.
