Today, the only person I know that ever traveled with me told me he doesn't enjoy the experience and thinks I'm an asshole, so I don't have a travel buddy any more. Every affordable trip requires two people. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my mother told me that I could take a friend on vacation with us. Then she added that because I have no friends, my brother can bring his girlfriend instead. FML
Today, I found out my boyfriend is bringing his friends on our trip. I'm now the third wheel on the romantic trip we've planned for a year. FML
Today, I was asking my husband to help me finalize plans for our upcoming vacation. He, however, would rather pout and sulk because I don’t want him to bring his mom along. She’s been with us on our last few trips and it’s hard to get any alone time. I’m considering just going alone at this point. FML
Today, I told my boyfriend I wouldn't be able to get any time off work to go to Mexico with him, and that we'd have to get our tickets refunded, and reschedule. He said not to bother, and that he already had someone else in mind to take with him. FML
Today, I was the only passenger on a completely booked flight to have all their luggage left behind in another country. FML
Today, while planning for our trip next spring, my friend told me that she's decided that her mom is coming with us. It’s non-negotiable. FML
Today, my husband wants to go on a trip to Tulum with his friend. I suggested I go as well, but he refused because it’s a "friends trip." He assures me that he "won’t sleep in the same bed with her or anything." I had to explain why it was still inappropriate. He still doesn’t get it. FML
Today, I was selected to go on a business trip for the first time in over a decade. I called my brother about it, who then proceeded to call into question every single aspect of the trip, affirming that his wife did everything different on her trips. I had to hang up before he had me questioning my own employment. FML
Today, my mom told me the night before our school trip that I’m not going so she could get a refund. Now I have to stay alone with my mom for a week, while my friends are having the time of their life in NYC. FML
Today, I'd booked the cheapest seat on a long flight and ended up between a couple who spent the entire trip arguing through me instead of talking to each other, even after I offered to switch seats. By the end of the flight I probably knew more about their marriage than some of their relatives do. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Every affordable trip most definitely does not need 2 people. That's ridiculous.

It doesn't hurt to ask why they thought that. It doesn't mean you'll always be like that. Might even be that he was the bad one. Open up, don't close up

Don't worry. There's an industry that provides affordable travel for huge numbers of assholes. It's called a cruise. You can be with a literal boatload of assholes.

Everyone's an asshole. You, your friend, Trump, Piers Morgan... everyone.

As someone who prefers to travel alone, you very well may not be an asshole. I get super annoyed when I travel with people and end up not enjoying my time so to end myself disliking my trip and ruining my travel buddies trips, I'll let them know I'm going to continue on my own at no fault of their own and that I just prefer to travel solo. Usually they understand and we remain friends and even meet up throughout the rest of the journey for the odd adventure together. I just prefer my alone time. Although, if he's the only one that was willing to travel with you, that might be a sign. I agree with previous comments, ask why and then work to better yourself. A large amount of people don't even realize they're being an asshole so they need someone to tell them. Good luck!
