Awkward

By NotTilly - 10/03/2010 14:54 - United States

Today, I met my boyfriend's extended family. His grandpa was apparently senile, as he kept calling me "Tilly" and asking me to dance. His relatives thought this hilarious and busted out the video camera. Later, I learned his grandpa is not senile at all - the family was playing a joke on me. FML

It was only a joke, the OP has no sense of humor. Think of it this way, they liked yournough to joke around with you, and it was so fun that they recorded the memory to share forever. Stop being such a baby, OP. Your life is not ruined because you danced with an old man. Maybe you should volunteer at an eldery manor, and stop being a selfish bitch.

In order to be a fml, this should end "so I slept with his grandfather and my boyfriend caught us. fml". As it stands, it's weak.

Ones like these make the case for a "not an FML" button.

I'm pretty sure he was calling her "Tilly" in reference to the killer whale at SeaWorld.

Agreed! The family played a joke on you :) I would have definitely taken that as a good sign. Totally sounds like something my family would do, but they only do it to those they think can handle it. So, that's also a good thing for you! The family figured you would laugh it off and enjoy it.

@71. And how is that? If I said anything to offend you in any way, shape, or form I would love to know how that is. Enlighten me.

If you say so, but I want to know how it did. I don't want to hear that it was, I want to know the reasoning of why you or they think it was.

I definately do not see how 84 is a bitch. She simply stated a fact.

Monikabug I personally agree with the point you make, but you do come off as bitchy, too. You're being way too sensitive about this - challenging people, capitalizing words for emphasis, responding to every comment about you. You make a good point, if it came off a little bitchy and a couple people make a comment about it just let it go. The point stands regardless of whether you come back to defend yourself against random internet dewdz.

welcome to the family!!! apparently they loved you or wouldn't have done such a 'mean' thing to you. I was once told 'if you aren't picked on, you aren't liked.' too bad for you.

I have a feeling he was referring to the whale at SeaWorld.

that episode taught me how to spell aardvark and I still think of the chant in the rare times I need to spell aardvark.
