Today, my fiancé's mother tried to arrange a marriage for him to a nice Indian girl, again. We've been engaged for a year, and the wedding is in a month. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, a week after my fiancé and I got engaged, his mother is already complaining that she isn't involved enough in the wedding arrangements. We haven't even set a date yet. FML
Today, my fiancé told me he wants to buy an engagement ring for his mother, so that she doesn't feel left out. 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 was busy going over wedding plans with my fiancé, when my mother called. Apparently, she wants me to "drop the joke" about this "fake engagement", because she was under the impression I was only dating a white guy to piss her and dad off, and was now getting carried away with it. FML
Today, my fiancé, his mother, my father and I went out to celebrate my birthday and our recent engagement. After dinner, my father and future mother-in-law revealed to us that they had secretly been dating and were talking about also getting married. Anybody want cake? FML
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, 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, my boyfriend proposed with the perfect ring, restaurant, flowers, and champagne. He’s never been this well prepared for anything in his life, so he admitted that my mother planned the whole thing and forced him to propose, even though neither of us want to get married. She even bought the ring. FML
Today, I announced my engagement. My mother's response was to freak out and demand that I postpone my wedding indefinitely. Why? My younger sister caught the bouquet at a wedding last year, so "she has to get married first!" My sister has been single for 3 years and showers once a week. FML
Today, I found out that my fiancé's sister, who only got engaged a couple of months ago, is getting married before us. I wouldn't have a problem with this if she wasn't planning her wedding to be exactly like ours will be. FML

She will be there to constantly remind him how she does not approve of you and will continue to seperate you two. This problem has to be dealt with before the wedding or else there may be a divorce.

Or worse yet, she'll still be looking for an Indian "alternate" wife for OP.

I'm really glad you are not forced to marry Noor, you're very lucky. I really don't like the idea of arranged marriages.

It MIGHT be a racial thing, but I think the real issue is the OP's ******.

Oops! I kind of misread it. When I saw "fiancée," I thought the OP's partner was also a woman. Somehow I missed the "him" further on.

19 - you are one racist son of a bitch, but on the other hand, I think you're just trolling just so you can get attention.

I was wondering where this seemingly random comment came from. Then I realized you didn't know Indian from Native American. Hilarious!

Don't marry an Indian

This is going to lead to divorce! Don't have any kids right away!

Actually, they SHOULD have kids right away, because when the mother sees how cute that mixed baby is, she won't give a crap.

Get used to being the outsider. You may win them over eventually with your stunning personality.
