Today, my boyfriend bought another expensive bong to go with the one he bought last month, along with his new phone, airsoft gun, and various other things he's blown our money on this year. He's bought nothing to prepare for our son, though, who's due next month. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my boyfriend says he “can’t afford” to buy some Pampers and formula for our daughter, yet he just pre-ordered the iPhone 14, and bought his weekly weed supply. FML
Today, my parents spent more time, money, and effort on my boyfriend's birthday present than they ever have on any of mine. FML
Today, I gave my boyfriend a $300 cooler for Valentine's Day. When I asked what he got me, he pointed at my stomach. I'm 3 months pregnant with his baby. FML
Today, my friend bought a smartphone and updated his Facebook status with it. Two weeks ago he signed an apartment lease with another friend. Four months ago he bought a new handgun. Seven months ago he bought a new TV. He's owed me $300 for a year and a half. FML
Today, after seven months of my supporting him, including paying all the bills, cleaning the house, and cooking, my unemployed "aspiring rapper" boyfriend finally got paid for his music. Did he buy me something nice? No, he called his boys to hit the club and pissed away everything he'd earned and then some. FML
Today, I should be spending my birthday with my boyfriend of 8 months. Instead he's visiting his ex, who's pregnant with a baby that "may or may not be" his. FML
Today, it's my birthday. My boyfriend’s birthday is a month before mine. I'd spent my birthday savings on his, but he told me that we couldn’t do anything for mine because, “I didn’t plan or organize better.” FML
Today, after working another double shift because I want to buy my boyfriend a really expensive anniversary present, I get to his apartment to find him calculating in how many paychecks he'll be able to afford a Caribbean getaway. For himself. FML
Today, as he was going out, I asked my father if he stop by the store and buy some tampons for me and toilet paper for the house, because we have been out for the last 5 days. He came home with a 30-pack of beer and cigarettes instead. I just started my time of the month and we have no more money. FML
Today, after having worked two jobs for months to save up for a big vacation, I came home to find my hard-earned money replaced by my boyfriend's brand new motorcycle. FML

Honey. He obviously does not care about his son. I say leave him because you don't want someone like him raising your child.

I'm not going to lie, and I'll accept whatever thumbs down this gets. Both OP and her boyfriend are complete and utter irresponsible idiots for smoking pot with a baby on the way. You don't smoke or do drugs when pregnant. I don't know if OP smokes, but if her boyfriend does, then the baby is getting some too.

you deserve it for having a kid with an idiot like that.

I agree, to me both parties are idiots. you should both be mentally ready to have a child, clearly he isn't and doesn't look like OP is either if she isn't doing something about it.

At least he's not blowing his load on your sister.

Why is it "our money" if he's your boyfriend and not your husband?
laurenasabutton 26
Non-married couples can share incomes/bills/bank accounts too.
UnluckyGenius 21
But why would a responsible adult want to share money with someone who blows it on all things listed above? Sounds like he is 16.

My guess is OP didn't expect these spending patterns while signing up.

Quite possibly OP is not working at this point in her pregnancy, so his pay may be the sum of "their" money.

My boyfriend and I live together and its "our money" because we share bills. Maybe that's the case with OP's situation. Although my boyfriend asked me to handle his money in my account otherwise he would spend it on stupid shit

If they're living together and having a kid, to some extent it is "our" money as inthey need to talk about those type of purchases.

You'd save money by leaving his ass

Uhh, stand up to him and tell him enough is enough.

He has alot of growing up to do ,leave him & file for child support so it will be taken out his check.

You need to bring this up with him. Sit him down, talk to him, try to make him understand how serious this is. This is a new life we're talking about. If your talk doesn't help at all, I think you should consider leaving him. The kid needs a father who cares for him.

So glad to see someone on FML suggest fighting to make things work before just bailing out. Totally agree. It's about more than just OP's life now.

You're the one who chose to be with this guy- your fault lol

I'm guessing it was an accident and OP doesn't want to get an abortion or put it up for adoption.
