Today, my mother offered to pay for my tickets to go see my girlfriend who I haven't seen for 6 months. She was happy to pay for the £130 flight, but then refused half way through the purchase because she wasn't going to "let the buggers charge £13 extra" for using her credit card. FML

Wild Nights Out
Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Same thing different taste
Gratitude walks
Today, I generously paid for my best friend to go to an event she's wanted to see her whole life. Instead of thanking me, she brought her children and made me pay for them too, complained that I hadn't chosen the seats she wanted, then blamed me when she got on the wrong train back to her hotel. FML
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me because I thought she wasn't being serious when she said her mum wanted me to pay to stay the night at her house for the first time. FML
Today, I called my mom from Australia. I have been abroad for two months and hadn't talked to her in a long time. A few minutes into the conversation my moms stops me and says this call must cost a fortune and hangs up on me. A few bucks in more important to her then me. FML
Today, my mother "borrowed" money from my stash to help pay for her vacation to the Dominican Republic. The same trip I'm not allowed to go on. FML
With friends like her, who needs money?
Today, I maxed out my credit card trying to help a friend of over 19 years to go see her family for Christmas, only to find out she changed her mind and doesn’t really want to go. I can’t return the bus tickets, and she’s mad at me. FML
Today, I bought my girlfriend two tickets to a Broadway show that was coming through town she really wanted to see. I couldn't attend with her due to work so she said she would take her mom. I found out later she took her ex. Now they're back together, and I paid for the date that made it happen. FML
Today, I found out my mother drives my car. I was okay with it; I don't use it all the time and she's my mother. However, I was not okay with the multiple speeding tickets that came through in the post. "You're the registered keeper, so why should I pay?" FML
Enjoy yourself
Today, my mom asked if she could use my red dress for her two-week trip to the Caribbean. I said no, because I was going to a party and I wanted to wear it. She called me a selfish, greedy bitch who would stay single forever. I paid for her plane ticket, her hotel fees, and her cruise ship fee. FML
Empty seat
Today, I booked a flight to see my girlfriend. At least I thought she was coming, the flight isn't cancellable because I was broke and could only afford the minimum ticket. I just wanted to make her happy. Well, it's now four days before the flight and I haven't heard from her for a week. I've been left on 'delivered', thinking at 4 am. FML
Random update?
Today, since it was payday, I figured I’d take my mom out for burgers. The bank also decided to do a random update on our debit card, resulting in my card declining three times. My mom ended up having to pay for our meals. So much for trying to treat my mom out to dinner. I’m still pissed. FML

Today, my ungrateful son complained that he couldn't pay €13 for a flight. I paid for the other €130. FML

There is no indication as to whether or not op has a job...his mom was prolly trying to do something nice for him...parents do that for their kids usually once in a while...

It is a rip-off. Maybe you can get your girlfriend to chip in the extra 13 pounds. Surely, your dick is so special that she'd be happy to pay to experience it.
FarSide 23
GF could probably spend $13 on a brand new one where she is at.

If she's decent-looking, she can probably have a selection of complimentary local dicks. They might even buy her some free drinks.
FarSide 23
Even if she is fugly, all she has to do is be wait patiently... by 2:30AM she should at least one taker. If she brings her own bag, she might score by 2AM. I think this FML is solved. Hope springs eternal.

Buggers? How old is your mother..?
FarSide 23
She's an old mother bugger.

long at the area that post was from. its the UK, they have a different speaking style compared to north America. even the word fanny has a different meaning. there it means ****** instead of butt.

get a job and a new girlfriend. it'll save you 130 € and the realization that long distance relationships almost never work.

I've had a successful long-distance relationship too, but chill the **** out.

Dude she paid for your airplane ticket. Stop being a cheap ass and pay for it yourself or just wait till you get off the plane

Pay the extra $13 and man up, unless your a pussy and your dick is the size of a chicken mcnugget

Colts dont rock...

£13 =/= $13.
FarSide 23
Having a dick the size of a chicken McNugget would be discouraging... having one SHAPED like a McNugget (and especially breaded and deep-fried) would leave you in abject gloom, despair, agony, and deep dark depression.

Get a job u lazy bum. Expecting your mum to pay for u to see your girlfriend. Maybe you don't even deserve to have a gf when you can't even afford to see her for 6 months
FarSide 23
Can the GF be such a prize?
THE_A_TEEN 28
Don't deserve to have a girlfriend? Who are you to tell people if they deserve to have a relationship? Prick
lilovatch 4
Read my reply you 16 year old know it all kid. "maybe". Dude if I was in a relationship and I can't afford nor make hell of an effort to be with my girl instead of bitchin about my mum not paying the extra £13 then I don't deserve to have her.
THE_A_TEEN 28
Full of shit. IF you have a great long-distance relationship, then you deserve her. besides, the mom is being a bitch for not paying the £130 because of some airline fee.

At which point you say "Well I'll cover that!"
