Today, my fiancé's mother came up to me and told me she loves that I stuck with my soon-to-be husband despite his history and condition. I have no idea what she's talking about, and she refuses to tell me. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my fiancé won't tell people we're engaged because his mother doesn't approve, and he doesn't want to upset her. FML
Today, my mother found out that my fiancée broke up with her last boyfriend because she didn't want kids and he did. She's now demanding that I either change her mind, or call things off with her. FML
Today, I was talking to my mom about how my fiancé has been ignoring me and that I didn't know why. Turns out, my mother told him that I was too much of a handful, was mentally disturbed and also cheating on him. Just so I wouldn't move out and would keep cleaning her house for free. FML
Today, I overheard my mom talking on the phone with my sister about how much they hate my fiancé. My wedding is in two weeks and my family has been pretending to like my future husband for three years. FML
Today, I went to my fiancé's mother's funeral. His step-sister proudly announced that she's pregnant with his baby and they are engaged. FML
Today, I learned that if you complain to your mom about your future mother-in-law's bitchiness, your overprotective mom might confront her about it and end up punching her in the face. My fiancée blames me for the incident. 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 discovered that my father is getting married. Overjoyed and confused because I didn't know he was dating, I called him up to congratulate him, and ask who she was. Apparently, his soon to be fiancée is my mother-in-law. My wife is not happy. FML
Today, my fiancé and I visited his family for dinner. The entire time I was there, his mother and sister had an in depth conversation about how attractive his ex girlfriends were and how they got along with them so well. FML
Today, I found out that my boyfriend's mother still calls his ex-girlfriend her "future daughter-in-law". FML

Soon to be mother in law... Trying to scare you off already! If she's not going to tell you, ask your fiancé.

Welcome to the family.

That's what I was thinking. Probably a future-mother-in-law ruse to get her to doubt or worry.

Comment moderated for rule-breaking.
I agree with 31. Anyways, what does it matter what kind of condition he has? Shouldn't she accept him regardless? I mean nothing was a problem before she found out I'm sure (Hence the reason why she had no clue what her "soon to be mother-in-law" was talking about) so why would it matter now?

So young, 32. Life is very long. With bills, mortgages, GFCs, kids etc, that cute lovey-dovey phase usually mellows...sometimes sours might be more accurate. You don't want to marry yourself off to someone with a serious mood/ psychiatric disorder, gambling problem, compulsive lying etc without the chance to research and choose knowingly - or not. People usually discover worse things about their lover over the long haul. Pray it's only chewing his toe-nails.

What if he had AIDS or something? That was the condition my mother's ex husband had, and he didn't even tell her until after they were married.

I The salad days last a short time after the I dos. Whether mom is ******* with your mind, or there have been prior issues, now is the time to find out so you don't get sucked in.

She's just looking to cause problems. If it were me, I'd mention it to my S.O. If you're lucky, it'll cause problems between him and his mother.

Perhaps in this case ignorance is bliss

Unless his "condition" is herpes.
Trisha_aus 15
Maybe she has the overly attached mother syndrome?
Joe9024 20
She'd know if he had herpes by now..
daisy2101 7
I don't think a mother would necessarily know if their child had herpes, well I sure know that mine wouldn't

Or HIV. Time to have a talk with him

Sounds like a trap..... Better find out what that thing before you get married

You need to know what she's talking about ASAP! You need all the facts before marrying your fiancé and spending the rest of your life with him.

I get the feeling you're the paranoid type. Sure eventually it would be good if OP knew what said future mother-in-law meant by that but it shouldn't become an obsession either. I personally suspect the future mother-in-law wanted to create tension to break up the couple and seeing how OP posted this here, I would think it worked like a charm.

38-I think marrying someone without uncovering all mysteries is foolish. Holy shit, this is probably why divorce happens as much as it does.
5t3ff1k4h 47
It's foolish, however there are ways it could work without. Everyone has skeletons in their closet. Even you, I suspect. Usually they're pretty insignificant by the time marriage rolls around, like a threesome in high school or you once kissed someone of the same gender on a dare. The big stuff, like personality and current lifestyle are usually what matters and those are evident long before a wedding. So why dig up past issues that don't apply anymore? If you find out after the wedding, so? You get along now. You care for each other. That should be all that matters.

57- I'm simply saying that people should go into marriages with their eyes wide open, not shut.
5t3ff1k4h 47
62 - There will always be mysteries. No one tells another absolutely everything. So then, no marriage pour vous?
hama806 19
65-Actually yes I was married. But I wouldn't have been had I known what I found out after I got married. The reason I gave this advice. Thus, eyes wide open...

Worry always causes people to really think about what theyre doing, and in some cases change their minds. Just ask your Fiancé.
