Today, I introduced my girlfriend to my dad. I thought it was a good idea at the time, at least until he took her aside for a private chat. During the chat, he told her all about my two previous marriages and advised her to "get out while you can". FML

Today, I finally invited my girlfriend over to meet my oddball parents. The first words out of my dad's mouth were, "So, you're the silly girl who agreed to date my dickhead son." It went downhill from there. FML

Today, my ex-girlfriend was having lunch with my parents. Believing she was in love with me and feeling the same, I dropped by. My parents told me that she’s their friend and that she has a boyfriend that they approve of, all while telling me I was never good enough for her. FML

You must be a huge disappointment as a child for your Father to say such a thing to your Girlfriend. Time to reevaluate your life.

Parents can be the biggest wedge sometimes. My mom actually said to my ex "I thought you would have been prettier". Talk to him about it

Ouch! That's horrible :( I don't understand how some people seem to have such a faulty brain-mouth filter.

Wow. Sorry to hear that, OP. Assuming that he doesn't have legitimate reason to warn her off, that's such a silly, nasty thing to say. How could he try to sabotage your relationship like that? Hope that things are going okay with your relationship, despite the parent hurdle.

Anyone saying "YDI" clearly thinks the parent is always right, parents can do no wrong, yadda yadda yadda. Those people are clearly delusional.

Today, at work at an OB office, I heard a ruckus in the hallway before a very large woman burst into my room and tried to attack my very pregnant patient. Crazy lady is the wife of the pregnant lady’s baby daddy, who is nowhere to be found. I don’t get paid enough for this shit. FML

Today, I found out my boyfriend accounts for my being late all the time whenever we go out. For example, he will ask me to be ready by 7, knowing I don't actually need to be ready until 7:45. He was so good at it that it's taken me 6 months of dating to notice. Am I insulted or impressed, I don't know. FML
