Today, I found out I have to give my father-in-law back the football tickets he gave me for my birthday. Why? His girlfriend decided she wanted to go. He didn't get me a different gift. FML

For his birthday, buy him a hot tub, then say "oh nvm, I think I'll use it instead."

I hope you kept the tickets...or at least made him pay to get them back. Make him pay out the nose for them...then you can get yourself something else you'd like. :D

your father in laws girlfriend should be your mum unless he's cheating on her

No. If he were married to the OP's mother he would be her stepfather. He's her father-in-law; that means he's the father of the OP's spouse.

And unless the Father-in-Law marries the girlfriend, she doesn't move up to the rank of mother-in-law. She simply remains the OP's Father-in-law's girlfriend.

If the girlfriend knew about this, she's a *****.

I wouldn't give him back a damn thing. You don't give a person a gift and then ask for it back. He better buy another set of tickets.

Three words. **** off, dick. (Made even funnier if his name is Richard.)

a gift means they are yours. tell him you can't use his daughter any more and and you are giving her back.

Why do these dumb ass people keep asking why her/his father in law has a girlfriend? Is it really that hard to understand?

Omg! It's ridiculous. And more than one person asked that. Wtf.

Oh be nice guys, it's not hard to understand, but I doubt everyone reads FML with their brains all tuned up to interpretation mode, and ready to go. It's easy to read this one and go 'hang on wwuuuutt?' It's not like it's a common thing to read (FIL + GF), and it just seems wrong at first if you're not really paying attention.
