Today, my boyfriend and I exchanged promise rings. I promised that I would stay committed to him and that he was the only one for me. He promised that he would stop seeing other woman behind my back. He wasn't kidding. FML

Don't let me be misunderstood

Today, my boyfriend bought me a ring for my birthday. My dad now refuses to talk to me, because he thinks I'm engaged. My boyfriend thinks it's funny, because he'd never marry me. FML

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

Pull up

Today, I was having sex with my boyfriend when my dad pulled up to pick me up from his house. My dad beeped his horn and my boyfriend opened his bedroom curtain, knocked on the window, and waved. While he was still inside of me. FML

why do parents think a ring will convince their dear daughter to keep her leg closed? it never works.

And that is why you don't do it in your parents' house.

Not saying I waited for marriage, but if I was your dad you'd probably have been sent off to a convent and they'd never find his body. I know its a weird double standard, but from a parent's point of view its a little different.

I agree that all this parental manipulation is childish and selfish. Parents should be guiding their children, not being manipulative dictators coercing their children to do whatever makes the parents happiest. OP, It would have been better if you could have said "no" to your father, but it sounds like he didn't give you that option. #121: Firstly, "Ho" is short for "*****" which means someone who gets paid money to have sex. OP was having sex with her boyfriend - therefore is not a "ho". Secondly, are you really saying you want to pick a wife that doesn't want to have sex? That's not nice. Please stay unmarried and don't inflict your perverted and misogynistic attitudes on some poor unsuspecting woman. Go back to your cave.
