A necessary component of a healthy relationship with a bright future is your significant other’s parents. Your courtship is doomed if you can’t find common ground with the people who created the love of your life.

Between the probing questions and the subtle deconstruction of your masculinity, hanging out with your girlfriend’s dad ranks just below visiting IKEA when it comes to soul-destroying activities a couple can do together. Most of the time, your potential father-in-law is just trying to protect his daughter, and although it might seem over the top, sometimes, those paternal instincts are correct.

When you’re hitting on a girl in a club and your girlfriend’s dad shows up, things can only really go downhill. Most people would high-tail it out of there and hope that their future father-in-law never talked about it. A select few though, like this gracious gentleman who was caught in the act, would view the wrath of a father as just an obstacle to navigate – and instead think up a creative way to get around it.

The incident happened in a nightclub called Level in Bolton, UK. Our casanova showed that he was completely not on the level as he tried to get his girlfriend’s dad out of the picture so he could hit on women. His master plan was based on the primary method of social espionage: Facebook. Hitting up the Level nightclub page, he asked the guy behind the account for a “random 1”: to throw out his girlfriend’s dad so he could cheat on her.

The sneaky gentleman in question starts off by explaining why exactly he wants his “bird’s dad” out of the picture, then added that he was “probably too old to be in there anyway” at 37. Eventually the Level Facebook admin explains they “can’t do that.” It’s not quite clear what happens next, but if he was willing to frivolously get his girlfriend’s dad thrown out for the chance to talk to women, it’s unlikely that this two-timing individual would have been deterred. This incident would probably make for an awkward Christmas dinner a few months from now. If, of course, their relationship lasted that long.
