Today, I told my husband I was taking him out for a birthday dinner date; it was actually a surprise party I'd arranged with his friends and family. We were a few minutes away when his mother called him to say she would be late. Surprise ruined. FML

Probably deliberate on his mother's part!

Yeah, it seems like a lot of parents try to hurt their children's relationships. It wouldn't surprise me if she wanted to ruin the surprise. OP is great for putting in the effort though.

Well lesson learnt, dont involve parents in surprise planning. This is not the first FML where a parent has ruined a suprise. Anyone above 50 has a failing bullshit filter that will slip up.
