Embarrassing, Weddings and Parents: Nice to see you

Nice to see you

By JeezyCherieze - 11/04/2009 01:10 - United States

Today, my father, who I rarely see, drove 400 miles to my wedding. I was so happy to see him, until he got completely trashed at my reception, asked me where he could "score some weed" and told me what a bitch my mom was, and how I needed to lose weight. For over an hour. At my wedding. FML

Today, my dad thought it would be appropriate to get drunk at my wedding and include in his father of the bride speech all the very bad things I did as a child, before I got the psychiatric help I needed. My in-laws were giving me death glares, and his nana yelled, “Shame on you!” at me. FML

Today, despite his promise not to, my dad got completely shitfaced at my wedding reception. When we found him, he was passed out on the toilet with his pants down, penis out, and he’d shit all over himself, the toilet, and the floor. I thought I could trust him just this once, but now he’s dead to me. FML

Today, I went to my (now ex) boyfriend’s step-uncle’s wedding. He got absolutely wasted and kept talking about marrying me in front of his mom and step-dad, but was listing off who he would and wouldn’t invite, all in front of the people he wouldn’t invite. FML

Today, my mom got drunk and started crying at my after-wedding party, after promising she'd behave herself. She thinks my husband is an awful person who'll drag me into a life of sin, all because he has a tattoo and an ear piercing. FML

Today, I got married. My father saw this as a good time to give some solemn, heartfelt advice to my new husband: "That ring gets real heavy fast." I was standing right there. So was my mother. FML

Today, I found out that my father, who very recently lost his wife, decided that drunkenly hitting on my long-time boyfriend's mom was a good idea. FML

Today, my dad, who lives hours away, called and told me he was getting married. Today. As in this evening. Guess I'm not invited. FML

Today, I was the best man at a wedding and I was flirting with a cute bridesmaid. Then this old guy decides to give the newlyweds a toast. He made a crappy joke and barely anybody laughed. So I say to the girl, "Wow that sucked, who the hell does he think he is?" The girl replies, "That's my dad". FML

I'm so sorry. Try not to let him get to you. It's your special day! Remember next time, you do have the right to make him leave your parties...he really would have deserved that.

Did you tell him to go **** himself? Seriously, disown the jerk. How dare he ruin one of the most important occasions of your life?!

Oh, he's "that guy." Don't invite him to any of your weddings ever again. That'll show 'em.

#22 You must be one of those people who STILL didn't understand that EVERY SINGLE FML has to start with "Today" so the OP could VERY well have posted the story after they got married and got back from their honeymoon, or even 5 years later...it doesn't mean they got married and the next thing they did was jump on FML to share the story...

That's what groomsmen are for. Ours were on patrol for that exact thing at my wedding, and were informed to escort those people out.

This wasn't a bad FML, but the wording kind of makes me cringe. "wedding" didn't need to be reiterated, it should have been saved for the punchline. The situation sounds laaame though, sorry to hear it, but nobody's wedding is perfect... everyone has that one story of something totally crappy that happened on the big day. At my parents' my maternal grandma (now estranged) got drunk and bitched at my dad all night.
