Today, my brother had his fiancée over to meet the whole family. We were having a great time with her, and my mother gushed to her that she was like the daughter she never had. I'm her daughter. FML

You should've wiggled your boobs in front of her face and said, "What the hell do you think these are?"

^ You mean, "It's 'fiancée.'" I agree with those who say don't worry about it. The phrase is mostly idiomatic these days. I think even my mom has used it with my fiancée, and I have a sister my mom loves dearly.

that was insensitive to say, but she probably didn't mean it.

Its easy to understand, but difficult to explain. U r your own person. U have your own personality and act a certain way. U r the type of daughter ur mother DID have. Ur future sister-in-law may be different. She would be the daughter ur mother did NOT have. Either way she meant it tho, FYL.

she probably meant that as if she had had two daughters.

that's really mean. but maybe she meant that she was like a daughter to her and not the daughter she never had
