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

Today, I came out to my parents. They nodded empathetically throughout my entire speech and told me repeatedly that it was okay. As I smiled and stood up, my dad asked, "But you're still going to marry a guy, right?" FML

Today, my boyfriend proposed to me. Everything was going perfectly, right up until he brought me back to his house to tell his family the good news. When I excused myself to the restroom, I overheard his mom say, "I thought you were going to break up with that stupid slut?" Welcome to the family. FML

Today, I called my dad to tell him my boyfriend had proposed to me, and that we're planning on being married this summer. He was surprised at the short engagement, so I said, "Well, we're almost 30." Dad replied, "Wow, I left your mom when I was 35!" So not the conversation for that information, Dad. FML

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

I guess "When there's a will, there's a way,' doesn't quite help your situation does it?

Your dad was probably not being serious. I'm sure he was just messing with you. :)

My wife's parents didn't like me either. After fifteen years of marriage, my in laws like me better.

Time to have a talk with dad and learn why he doesn't like your boyfriend. Btw, congrats.

Well, does he have a reason to say that? If so, you should think twice.. Your dad probably just wants the best for you, even though he could be a little more discreet in saying how.. It is easier to spot "goofs" when you are not In love with them, like from your dads perspective ..
