Today, I asked my boyfriend advice on apartment hunting - as we were planning to move in with each other. He told me that there is no way he can afford to move out of his parents' house anytime soon. He can, however, afford a collection of belt-fed automatic nerf guns. FML

expertdoubleex tells us more.

Allo Trollsters. This is the silly girl who posted the FML. A few disclaimers: 1) Rent is cheaper here than you are thinking. My last place here ran under $500, utilities included. If we split the cost, we aren't looking at massive expenses. 2) He is 25 years old, he lives at his parents' for free, he has a job AND THEY GIVE HIM AN ALLOWANCE. Oh, yeah, and they pay his bills for him. 3) Yes, he acquired all the nerf guns at once, within the past week. 4) I don't have a problem with his hobby. Boys will be boys, and I kinda have a thing for nerds. I do, however, have a problem with the fact that he has lied to me for the past 6 months about his future aspirations... Because I have been busting ass, nose-to-the-grindstone, working towards getting my debts paid off so we could get this place together. Aaaaand, apparently toys are more important.

Fall

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

I'm not a doctor or anything, but im pretty sure that a few nerf guns are less expensive than maintaining an appt.

$40 for nerf guns. $200-$600 for rent.... yes I can see how this makes sense. besides the belt fed nerf guns kick ass

Listen, lady. I want you to do something for me. Go to his house, and fire off a few nerf guns. Just do it.

I've actually gone through something similar... He was more into video games, and playing magic the gathering with his friends and all the while I trusted him... I found out he was cheating on me...

your guy needs to get a life. he's obviously immature and irresponsible and i would dump him if i were you

(I haven't had a cent of disposable income for months, as I have put every bit of my pay towards paying off old debts so we can afford to get this place together. Having hobbies is fine. Lying about your finances and future aspirations is *not*.)

If this was posted on MLIA, it would be powerful win.

That's just more important than you.

His mommy probably bought them for him so he wouldn't throw a fit at the toystore.
