Today, my boyfriend's dad said he'd given my boyfriend £100 to take me out for a meal last night and he hoped I'd enjoyed it. Last night my boyfriend and I went to Pizza Hut, shared a pizza and split the bill. Turns out my boyfriend had simply pocketed the money without telling anyone. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my boyfriend asked me to pick up a few things from the store for him while he was at work. After picking up everything he asked for, I wasn't left with much money so I used $50 from my account. When he got home he then grumbled about me spending all of "his" money. FML
Today, I treated my boyfriend to an expensive dinner using the last of my paycheck. I had to excuse myself to the bathroom a few minutes in. I came back to find my plate empty. His excuse was, "I didn't want the food to get cold." FML
Today, I went out for pizza with my boyfriend. He loaned me his debit card and loudly announced in front of everyone that his pin code was the numerical equivalent of "Fart", and repeated it twice, just in case I hadn't heard. FML
Today, my boyfriend send me a text to inform me that his mother had told him that I was only with him for his money, which he got from his dad's will… even though we were already together at the time. FML
Today, I went out to eat with a group of couples and my boyfriend. All my friends boyfriends paid for them. Mine didn't, and said that I should order off the diet menu. FML
Today, my grown up, unemployed boyfriend stole 70 dollars from my wallet and tried to hide it in two different places in case he needed to ditch me and go out by himself. He got angry when I confronted him and stormed out. He feels perfectly entitled. I work, pay rent and buy food. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I had a lovely dinner date. Our waitress was really sweet, so we talked about leaving her a big tip. When we got home, we discovered we both thought the other person had left it. FML
Today, I took my boyfriend to meet my parents over dinner. During the meal, he excused himself to the bathroom, and when he didn't come back after a few minutes, I went to check up on him. I ended up finding him in the living room, pocketing a pack of ambien from my mom's bag. FML
Today, I went to a restaurant with my boyfriend. When it came time for us to leave, I saw him write something on the receipt for our waitress. I managed to get a quick look; it was his number. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I went to a restaurant so I could apply for a job, and we decided to eat there. After we finished, I went to start the car. When we got home, I asked him how much the bill came to. Apparently he didn't pay. I had already given them my completed application. FML

It's even worse that his dad gave him the money instead of him using his own

I'm sorry op. But maybe he's saving up to buy you something?

Note to OP: don't let your boyfriend handle the finances

But he didn't have gta5 or the new pokemon game, sacrifices needed to be made, right? Right?
jasmine2301 25
No.

I think you meant "on." As in, "Turn 'on' the Xbox, GTA5 is here!"

You got pizza... I do not see the problem... Besides, who needs that much money just for a meal anyway?

They split the bill. She still had to pay. I go dutch with my boyfriend all the time, but if my dad or his dad gave him money to take me out to a nice dinner,he'd take me out to a nice dinner and not pocket the money and make me pay.

But what is really so wrong with helping pay the bill? Is it not more fair that way?
etishuman22 32
Nothing usually, but this time the intention was for OP's boyfriend to take the money and treat her, not take her to a mediocre pizza chain and split the bill with her. Now if they had gone to a nice restaurant and the bill was more than what than the £100 given, then it would have been acceptable for OP to help pay the bill, or helped with the tip depending on their custom.

Meh, fair enough for OP to be pissed then I guess.

Your boyfriend's dad is very sweet, OP. I'm sorry that your boyfriend is not, however. :/

I'd tell on him. I mean, no need to spend a 100 quid on food, but sharing a pizza AND making you pay half of it? Damn, he sure is one close-fisted little man.
jasmine2301 25
Tell on him? What are you, five?

that's messed up

Give him a few weeks, maybe a big gift is coming your way.

That would be extremely optimistic.

Be sure to tell your BF's dad. So, he knows next time to give you the money

Time for a trade in. If it was me, I would have used the money to buy groceries and make dinner with desert to eat by candlelight and a movie afterwards

a real man doesn't ask his girlfriend's dad for money to take her on a date.

How do you know the guy asked his dad for the money? Maybe the dad was just being generous, and wanted to treat the couple.
etishuman22 32
Exactly. Like I said in one of my replies above, my dad or my boyfriend's dad sometimes gives us money for dates just to be nice because they like us. Dads aren't as tight fisted as TV would like to portray them to be!

#46, It says boyfriend's dad. The boyfriend didn't ask her dad but his own dad gave it to him. Maybe the dad was just being nice to them. There is no ages so they may still be in school and too young to get a job (think 14-16). There could be a lot of reasons.

53, I was thinking more of those Cialis commercials where the parents invent reasons to keep the kids away from the house for some "alone time", but I suppose being fond of their child is a valid reason too.
etishuman22 32
#62, Haha I like your reasoning though. My dad has given my boyfriend money just to take me out for a nice date because he thinks my boyfriend is a great guy and he likes us together, so I just assumed that OP is a great gal and her boyfriend's dad wanted to treat them.

He sounds like a douche bag. What else is hiding from you.
