Today, I changed all my plans, after months of him begging me to, so I could go to the same university as my long-term boyfriend. After I sent in my deposit, he told me we couldn't live together in college because I was "invading his space." FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, my boyfriend informed me that he'd resolved all the issues with his ex and is getting back together with her. Normally I could tolerate this if it weren't for the fact that I just moved to a different country to live with him, and turned down a university and a scholarship. FML
Today, I moved three hours away from my boyfriend for college. Even though he got accepted to the same school and had a job lined up in town, he decided not to come with me because the Internet at our apartment wasn't going to be fast enough for his gaming. FML
Today, I was accepted to college and received a scholarship equal to almost half the tuition. After sharing this news with my parents, I spent the next 35 minutes getting yelled at about how I wasn't allowed to go there because my boyfriend might go there. FML
Today, my boyfriend admitted that he never thought we had a future together. He just wanted to move in together so he could get "cheaper rent for a while." FML
Today, my boyfriend told me that we wouldn't move in together as we had planned to do for a long time. His mother forbade it. He is 27. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me, claiming moving in was a bad idea and he is the type who needs his privacy. It was his idea to move in, he had to convince me. Now we are stuck, under lease together for the next 6 months. FML
Today, after months of planning, my boyfriend told me he's changed his mind and doesn’t want to move with me to where I got a job. Why? He doesn’t want to live that far away from his mother. FML
Today, my boyfriend moved. He moved from my room... to my housemate's room. FML
Today, my long-distance boyfriend of 3 years uttered the heartbreaking words, “I met this girl here in my hometown and she’s really great and we fell in love with each other, I can’t do this anymore. We’re over.” I was planning on moving to his town after graduation this year. FML
Today, I travelled across an ocean to visit the guy I'm dating. He lied to me about his apartment; he lives in a dorm with a twin-sized bed and a bathroom he shares with eight guys. Just now, after taking three trains from the airport to his "apt", he asked me to edit his essay while he goes to class. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Never change your plans for the sake of a single boy in your youth. In this era, it's just not worth it, darling...and now you see why....

If he was so desperate to be together, why didn't he go to the college of your choice? Dump him, because let's face it, he's probably a clingy loser anyway. Pull your pants up and do what you want to do; independence is always attractive. More often than not, your education will last longer than your relationships, especially if it's a high school relationship, so always put school first.

Ok, I know this is going to sound very rude, but frankly, this is how I understood it : he just wanted someone convenient to ****. There, I've said it. Now dump his selfish ass.

If you were going to make such a decision you really should have discussed that kind of thing with your boyfriend before you commited... So i'm going to have to say YDI. I'm all for doing things for the sake of love (and OP could have wanted to go to that university anyway, big no no if you really didn't want to go). I've known of people who go to the same uni as each other, but it was a sitution of them wanting to go anyway. But seriously, you really have talked about it and sorted it out before jumping the gun. Discuss the seriousness of your relationship? Whether you would be living together during that time? Your future plans together??? Or better yet, just go to the university you wanted to go to..

I agree with your post, but there was nothing said that hinted they hadn't talked about this first, IMO. He begged her, so she knew her choices, and (at least if I was the one in this situation) they probably talked it out... or partially, so it seems, before she finalized her decision. It's possible he just backed out at the last minute because he realized it wasn't what he wanted or he wasn't ready for it.
