Today, my boyfriend went to ask my dad for my hand in marriage. All I could make out from the door was mumbling, until profanities started flying. My boyfriend shouted "well she's a SINGLE bitch now!" and stormed out of the house. My dad still refuses to tell me what happened in there. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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 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 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 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
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 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 asked my girlfriend's father if I could marry his daughter. He smiled, shook my hand, and said "No. Now get out of my house." 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 introduced my boyfriend to my parents for the first time. My dad took one look at him, sighed and said, "You deserve someone better. Someone who is responsible, and has their priorities straight in life." Beyond upset, I told my dad that I love him. My dad disgruntledly responded, "I was talking to him." FML
Today, my boyfriend has never gotten along with my dad, but this afternoon during what I thought was a completely normal conversation, he just stood up, yelled he couldn’t take my dad anymore, punched him in the nose, dumped me, and drove away. FML

They probably were playing Mario Cart. I always get pissed off when I play that.

Screw anyone that doesn't come to you for your side of the story. You're better off without him, OP.

Did you ever think to ask your boyfriend what happened? If you put up with disrespect from your father, I can only assume you've been putting up with disrespect from your guy. Perhaps you're the problem. Some soul searching into what YOU want for yourself is in order. Maybe you need to be single to get to know yourself better before committing to a long term relationship...

Damn ): I'm guessing OP's dad called her a bitch first? FYL, that sucks!

I'm thinking your Dad ask a few questions like how the bf will support you, where will you live, do you have a plan for children, and your bf did not have good answers. Maybe your Dad was doing you a favor. It's part of his job as your Dad,

None of that is his job. If OP is old enough to get married, she's old enough to figure those things out with her fiance.

Maybe it's a joke so that the proposal will be a huge surprise.

I wonder what kind of bitch your father had just called you?

No one knows what was said between the two don't be so quick to judge he might have had a good reason to say what he said

I feel so sorry for you for having someone who gives up so easily and to have that discussion turn out like that. On the bright side, it's good you're not marrying someone who can split just like that. (: but FYL.
