Today, my boyfriend told me he likes to do things the old-fashioned way, and that he wouldn't propose to me without my father's blessing. My dad died 3 years ago, and he knows it. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I think my boyfriend of 5 years is going to propose soon. He told me he was thinking about it last year, and spoke to his parents, who said they wouldn't attend the wedding as "It's not their thing." My dad passed away in November and I don't talk to my mum, so I have no one to be excited with and share the news. FML
Today, my aunt informed me that my dad thinks my boyfriend is a loser deadbeat because he hasn't proposed to me after two years of dating and co-habitation. He hasn't asked because I already made it very clear I have no interest in marriage. FML
Today, my boyfriend asked my father for permission to marry me. My father refused, on the basis that I'm the only person in the house with a job, and if I leave he will have to start looking for work. My boyfriend won't marry me without his permission, and my lazy father won't change his mind. FML
Today, my boyfriend proposed to me during a funeral. FML
Today, my boyfriend asked me to marry him. When I happily told my dad, he kept asking if I'd consider taking back my ex. FML
Today, I happily told my parents that my boyfriend proposed to me last night. My dad's response? "Marry that goofy bastard and you're out of the will." FML
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me. She told me that her father didn't approve of me and forced her out of the relationship. Her father died 2 years ago. FML
Today, my boyfriend of two years broke up with me. Why? He said his mom didn't want us together anymore. His mom died three years ago. FML
Today, my boyfriend bought me a ring for my birthday. My dad now refuses to talk to me, because he thinks I'm engaged. My boyfriend thinks it's funny, because he'd never marry me. FML
Today, my dad met my boyfriend for the first time. He soon "casually" took a huge knife from the kitchen drawer and told my boyfriend that he's always wondered what it'd be like to stab someone. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

tell him you like the old fashion way too, tell him you want to wait until you're married until you have sex's again.

Two possibilities, he honestly didn't remember about your dad at the time, or he's one slick bastard that has no intentions of giving you that ring. Not looking good either way

This could be far fetched but maybe he's religious and he's talking about praying? Waiting for a sign that could be taken as a blessing towards marriage?
brivielle 15
Wow!!! He's commendable. Best dump-line ever.
blinked_281 29
Step father, maybe?
Yeshua_fml 19
Or new boyfriend?

He is not going to ask her new boyfriend for blessings. That's just silly.
buttcramp 21
well or the mother or even the grandparents.
elibel 16
Maybe it's a sign he's not the one for you..
Mystery_Unsolved 16
Yeah, that's not even cool if that's your only father.

Well, now you know he won't be proposing anytime soon unless he changes his mind/ways.

sex*

54- well if he won't marry her then he's probably not worth it to begin with. And if he leaves because they don't have sex then OP will be better off and can find a guy who does want to be with her.

If he's that old fashioned maybe they aren't having sex.
ostfaiz 18
conditional love!
blueiceninja 13
He's just looking for an excuse not to marry you OP. Maybe you should talk to him about it? Or maybe he meant your step-father?
Onyx3288 22
This really does seem like the only reasonable explanation.
World_Burner 13
Maybe OP's BF is just concerned about marriage because of how badly men can be ****** if it goes south.. nope, let's just blame and attack the BF!

Tell him your dad came to you in your dream and said yes. Problem solved.
fuckyourlifeOP 25
No, if he knew that OP's dad was dead, then he obviously is just being a **** about it and she doesn't need him. So, no, OP, tell him that your dad came into your dream and said "**** you".
