Today, I left for a one and a half month trip to Japan with my boyfriend. He promptly broke up with me the first night in the hotel. When asked why he couldn't have waited until the trip was over, he said he didn't want to create "false memories". FML

Today, my boyfriend broke up with me, and my heart is shattered to pieces. The worst part is we are supposed to go on vacation together in a week, and neither of us is backing out, or giving the other the room, so it looks like we’ll be staying together on vacation for 11 days straight. FML

Today, my best friend and I came home from Japan. Her boyfriend and I have been having an affair before I left so I decided not to tell him she was coming with me. We just got off the plane and got a bite to eat, he was waiting for me so he could propose, my best friend was standing next to me. 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 broke up with me because I was "angry" at him. I was angry because last night he turned off his phone and left me locked out of the Airbnb that I had paid for. Until 3 am. In a foreign country. FML

Today, I broke up with my boyfriend. I had only been dating him for about a month. Thinking he wouldn't take it very hard, I invited him over so I could tell him in person. Little did I know he was going to start crying on my couch and not leave for 5 hours. FML

Weird reason, but OK

Today, my boyfriend broke up with me, sitting in my car, an hour into a four-hour trip. The reason? I haven't been lifting with him at his gym during the COVID-19 pandemic. The kicker? We were headed back after a stay-cation with his mom, because yesterday was my birthday. FML

Today, while on vacation, I found out that my boyfriend moved out. He had claimed that he couldn't come with me because his boss messed up his time off request, and for the last two days he said he'd been "cleaning". FML

Today, I flew cross-country to see my girlfriend of three years. Once I got there, she broke up with me. I was supposed to be staying for a month and now I have nowhere to go. FML

Just because there are a lot of fish doesn't mean she can catch them.

There's also plenty of sharks and dolphins in the sea. Not to mention trying to compete with sperm whales.....

.....many of those fish look like cute Japanese girls and your man wants to unpack his fishing rod...

Go to a koi pond for starters. Start with a small group and if that fails go commercial fishing in the ocean.

I like those private fishing holes where you pay to catch farm-raised catfish. Sure the fish look a little ratty, and the price is steep, but you can't beat experience! Those fish have had PLENTY of hooks in their mouths.

There may be plenty of fish in the sea, but you'll need bait to catch any. A nice rod also helps.

Find a store in Japan, get a bunch of great clothes, wear them out and when men are falling over you remind your boyfriend that these Are his "true memories"

Actually, I'd like to know whether she paid for the trip. If she paid for the trip, then she just got suckered into buying a trip to Japan for this guy. If he paid... yeah, at least she got a trip to Japan out of it.

What a lousy, strawman excuse, hopefully you can still make the best out of your trip OP, without the douchebag. Why not leave him there to enjoy the scenery without strings attached?
