Today, I flew to Mexico with my (now ex) boyfriend of two years. It was my first time flying, and apparently I have a fear. I had a panic attack on the plane. When we landed, I got dumped for "causing a scene." I am now stranded in Mexico alone for two weeks with no hotel room booked. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my girlfriend and I went on vacation. We flew 2000 miles, got off the plane, got our bags and stood outside the airport for our ride. She looks at me and says, "I can't do this anymore." So, she broke up with me and flew back home. Now I'm on vacation alone. FML
Today, I flew cross-country to see my girlfriend of three years. Once I got there, she broke up with me. I was supposed to be staying for a month and now I have nowhere to go. FML
Today, I left for vacation in Mexico. Upon landing, I received a text message from the guy I've been seeing. It read, "Sorry, I'm not boyfriend material. Have a good trip." I paid 75 cents to get dumped, internationally. FML
Today, after being terrified for years, I went on a plane for the first time. It was also the first time I "emergency landed." FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me because I was "angry" at him. I was angry because last night he turned off his phone and left me locked out of the Airbnb that I had paid for. Until 3 am. In a foreign country. FML
Today, I left on my honeymoon with my wife who is terrified of flying. The pilot announced incoming storms in the flight path, and the man next to me starts saying it's "probably fate" and "we all have to go sometime." My wife went into a full panic attack. We hadn't even left the ground yet. FML
Today, I had to suffer through a four hour flight beside my ex. Yesterday, I proposed, on the last day of our vacation. She said no. FML
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
Today, I got home from visiting my long-distance girlfriend. I spent $366 to get a plane ticket to visit her for the week. The day after I arrived there, she broke up with me and I had to buy a ticket for an earlier flight home. With fees and penalties, I paid around $550 to be broken up with. FML
Today, the small plane I was on almost crashed, all because the pilot's girlfriend figured out mid-flight that he's been cheating on her, causing her to start screaming abuse and furiously beating him. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Come on guys, really? Just because the FML says "Today" doesn't mean that it actually happened today. This probably happened a while ago. I'm sure by now OP is in her (likely) hometown of Alberta, where she has plenty of time to find a computer. Maybe the weird tense change at the end was for dramatic effect.

Your (ex) boyfriend is a douche for doing that to you. It's not your fault you have a fear if flying.

It's not beautiful if you have to sleep on the street!!!! You should call your parents, they should be able to get you home.

i would be pretty pissed off too if my girlfriend caused a scene like that, but maybe you can now learn to get over your irrational fear of flying

Planes crash sometimes. A fear of flying isn't irrational.

Phobias aren't rational. Plummeting to the earth and dying immediately is a reality. Her fear is not irrational. You are just an unsympathetic person. When someone panics it's not a choice. Maybe it will happen to you.

It is irrational because it is a phobia. The odds of dying in a plane crash are very low, to the point where it is actually irrational to be afraid of it happening. You have a higher chance of dying in the car on the way to the airport.

Then how is this written in Canada?

Hmm there has to be a more logical explanation on why he dumped you. I simply don't think it's only because you had fear of flying in a plane.. Maybe he wanted to break up with you a long time ago o.O

yeah i agree too sometimes people aren't meant to be with each other although it is really mean to leave someone stranded in a foreign country with no hotel

Yea, but why in the world would he take her on a trip to Mexico if he wanted to break up with her? If you want to dump someone you don't usually go on vacation with them.

I agree with lkdude77 he probably planned the break up like this and needed to think of a reason
