Today, I took my girlfriend out for a romantic dinner, since we can't see each other this Valentine's Day. Halfway through, my aunt called, telling me my grandma had died. I had to leave because I was crying so much, leaving my girlfriend with a very pricey bill. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my boyfriend told me he couldn't spend the day with me as he had his grandmother's funeral. Lonely, I went shopping and I bumped into his mum having lunch with his 'dead' grandma. FML
Today, I took my girlfriend of a year out on a date, a nice fancy dinner and a movie. After dinner, I said that I was feeling sick and just wanted to go home. I didn't have the heart to tell her that dinner was so expensive that I didn't have money for the movie. FML
Today, I called my boyfriend to have a shoulder to cry on because my grandpa died. As soon as I told him, he started crying and telling me how much he missed his grandmother, who died six years ago. I spent the majority of the phone call listening to him wail. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me at my grandma's funeral. FML
Today, I took my girlfriend to eat out at a restaurant. We chatted for an hour, and it all seemed to be going well, until she told me that she wanted to break up. Waiting for the bill and driving her home was the most painful time of my life. FML
Today, I had to send a picture of my Grandma at her funeral to my girlfriend, because she thought I was out cheating on her. FML
Today, I was watching a movie alone, after receiving a text from my boyfriend saying that his grandma was at the hospital, so he couldn't go with me. I caught him on a date with another girl, at the same movie screening that I went to. FML
Today, my girlfriend and I went out for ice cream. We somehow started talking about which of our relatives had died. Right when she was talking about how her grandfather had died, I started laughing. She had gotten ice cream all over her face. She broke up with me. FML
Today, my girlfriend, who I thought was the one I’d one day marry, didn’t survive her first time meeting the extended family. My parents loved her, but my grandma, great grandma, aunties, and cousins gave her such a hard time that she ran out in tears, jumped on a bus, then broke up with me via text. FML
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me because I didn't call her in the last few days. I tried to explain to her that I was out at my grandfather's house in a remote place with no cell service to stand by him on his death bed. She thought I was making excuses and called me a lying bastard. FML

not sure why you were downvoted. I'm sure #14 just meant they could go out on another date at a later time.

I'm sure she understands, and money in that kind of situation should take a backseat. I'm very sorry for your loss.

so sorry for your loss OP! Hopefully your girlfriend understands money isn't important at a time like that and won't be upset. And like others have said you can also repay her or even offer to take her on another date to make up for it.

Well it's a hard thing to know, but couldn't your girlfriend leave with you? I mean, it is her job to support you.

I'm guessing (since he didn't complain about it) there must have been a good reason why she didn't. For example, OP suddenly ran out of the restaurant and she had to stay to pay the bill first. Or perhaps OP is the type who dislikes crying in front of people and asked to be left alone. Etc etc...If she loves him, she'll understand and will be there for him when he needs her.

True dat, didn't notice :P My points still stand though, I'm sure there are many reasons why OP's gf may not have followed her immediately.

Just pay her back she should understand. I also wonder why you couldn't just pay and you both leave at the same time? Won't she be there for support for this?

She was probably too upset to think about that at the time..probably just focused on getting out of there.
