Today, I'm on vacation. I spent $4000 to surprise my boyfriend on a trip to Hawaii. We have been together over a year. Turns out, he hates the outdoors. He's mad at me for bringing him here and is upset at everything. He's in the room reading, I'm at the bar drinking $10 Mai Tai's. FML

Today, I found out my boyfriend is booking my dream vacation to Bali with his brothers, 6 months after he told me we couldn't go on vacation this year because he doesn’t have the money. They planned this within a week. I had been planning it with him for months. FML

Today, I landed in Hawaii for my vacation. I have a really bad ear infection, and to top my day off, my girlfriend blurted out mid-flight that she thinks we're not going to work out. Aloha! FML

Today, my boyfriend told me that he wanted to break up with me but it had to be after our cruise together because he doesn't want to lose out on money. Can't wait for the Bahamas. FML

Today, my boyfriend used the "this isn't working, we need to talk" line on me. How nice of him to wait this long to do so, just days after we returned from the expensive Caribbean holiday that I paid for. FML

Today, my fiancée bought me a luxury getaway to the Maldives, complete with a five-star hotel and first-class plane tickets. Too bad she used my credit card, with all the money I was saving for our wedding. FML

Today, on the last day of our vacation with my boyfriend's family, I'm crying alone under a tree because he refuses to talk to me because I got mad he didn't want to do anything with me, but did those same things with his family. He went out of his way to do all the things I wanted to do, but without me. FML

Today, my son got back from his solo holiday in Hawaii. I asked him what he did. Apparently, he sat in his suite for 2 weeks, watching shit on his laptop. He spent thousands of pounds, flew thousands of miles to one of the nicest islands in the world, all to stay in his room. He could have done that here. FML

Today, I got back from a romantic vacation at a fancy hotel with my boyfriend of 6 months. After a steamy love session, I confessed that I was in love with him. Later, when I got out of the shower, all his stuff was gone and I was stuck with the entire week's hotel cost and no ride home. FML

Today, I found out my boyfriend can't swim and we are about to go on a romantic holiday to Zanzibar where all our excursions include water-based activities. His solution is that I just go do them all by myself. FML

Today, it's the first day of my Hawaiian honeymoon. We found out that the pool is under construction and our room is infested with roaches. We are paying $375 a night for this. FML

You've been together over a year and you didn't know that he hates the outdoors? I gotta say YDI.

He seems like a jerk...any normal person would at least try to enjoy themselves when the significant other put in that much effort. Sorry, that sucks! On the upside you are in Hawaii!

This guy got a trip to Hawaii and is bitching about it because he "hates the outdoors"? Well then, he's either he is a vampire or he's an asshole... and I don't believe in vampires! I am not the biggest beach bunny (I burn so easy it's not even funny!) but if I was in Hawaii you would have to DRAG me away from the pool/beach.... but even if I could not go out in the sun I would still make the effort to show that I appreciate what is obviously an incredibly kind gesture. if this wanker wants to sit in his hotel room reading then that's a sign for you to head to the beach, grab the hottest guy you see and upgrade to a boyfriend who will appreciate you!

He should still appreciate the gesture, even if you hate the outdoors you can still have a good time. At the same time, maybe before spending that much on a trip you MIGHT see if he actually wants to go first.

#54, everybody sees the situation from their own point of view. Going to Hawaii is her idea of a good time, and I don't deny she probably thought they would enjoy it together -though again, after a year, she should have known better. Going on a trip to a calm, secluded area and spending lots of time indoors doing quiet stuff with very few people around is *my* idea of a great time, and yet I wouldn't surprise my girlfriend with that, because I know it doesn't fit her own tastes -but I would never call her 'unappreciative' for that.

Hey, at least now you know not to marry him because you have such wildly different interests.

How is he ungrateful? Why is no one thinking that the girl is selfish to drag him to the place he doesn't like? Of course it's FML, but it's not his fault. Demanding him to it is selfish.

Your boyfriend sucks. He could at least join you at the bar. And come here girl, if he is THAT much of a bore, maybe it would not be too bad of an idea to have a chat to some of the other fellas around.
