Today, I brought a boy home for the first time, only to have my dad ask him what his mother's maiden name was. When he answered, my dad exclaimed, "Oh yeah! I think I dated her in high school. I could be your father!" FML

Today, my dad told me he was planning to have his steady girlfriend over for dinner. He's only had a few relationships since he and my mom split up when I was very young, so I was excited to meet the woman. He then told me that I knew her already. My dad is dating my aunt on my mothers side. FML

Today, I brought my girlfriend home for dinner. The first words out of my dad's mouth were apparently, "Ah, you must be Dan's slam-piece." I was in the living room and didn't quite catch it all, but I said, "She certainly is!" Now I'm single, and all my friends think I'm a bastard. FML

Today, after dating for almost a year, I decided to introduce my parents to the man I was sure I'd fallen in love with. When dad saw him, his and my boyfriend's face completely dropped. I asked them what was wrong because I could feel the discomfort. Turns out, I'm dating my dad's drug dealer. FML

Definitely seems like your father wanted to embarrass you from the start. Why ask out of nowhere for the mother's maiden name? Lol

Oh my god, OP I am so sorry. That makes for an awkward situation, but (hopefully) your father was just joking

If my girlfriend's father ever asked me what my mother's maiden name was, I wouldn't answer because that's none of his business.

ahahah you'd be rude to a girls father? that's a good way to be rejected from her family and dumped. always respect the girls father, one day you'll need to ask him to marry his daughter, if you had any respect for her anyway.

if you plan to get married, you will need to ask at some point. so you will not ask every father, but you will ask one, and you probably won't know on the first date you meet the father.
