Today, I'm on vacation. I spent $4000 to surprise my boyfriend on a trip to Hawaii. We have been together over a year. Turns out, he hates the outdoors. He's mad at me for bringing him here and is upset at everything. He's in the room reading, I'm at the bar drinking $10 Mai Tai's. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I found out my boyfriend is booking my dream vacation to Bali with his brothers, 6 months after he told me we couldn't go on vacation this year because he doesn’t have the money. They planned this within a week. I had been planning it with him for months. FML
Today, I landed in Hawaii for my vacation. I have a really bad ear infection, and to top my day off, my girlfriend blurted out mid-flight that she thinks we're not going to work out. Aloha! FML
Today, my boyfriend told me that he wanted to break up with me but it had to be after our cruise together because he doesn't want to lose out on money. Can't wait for the Bahamas. FML
Today, my boyfriend used the "this isn't working, we need to talk" line on me. How nice of him to wait this long to do so, just days after we returned from the expensive Caribbean holiday that I paid for. FML
Today, my fiancée bought me a luxury getaway to the Maldives, complete with a five-star hotel and first-class plane tickets. Too bad she used my credit card, with all the money I was saving for our wedding. FML
Today, on the last day of our vacation with my boyfriend's family, I'm crying alone under a tree because he refuses to talk to me because I got mad he didn't want to do anything with me, but did those same things with his family. He went out of his way to do all the things I wanted to do, but without me. FML
Today, my son got back from his solo holiday in Hawaii. I asked him what he did. Apparently, he sat in his suite for 2 weeks, watching shit on his laptop. He spent thousands of pounds, flew thousands of miles to one of the nicest islands in the world, all to stay in his room. He could have done that here. FML
Today, I got back from a romantic vacation at a fancy hotel with my boyfriend of 6 months. After a steamy love session, I confessed that I was in love with him. Later, when I got out of the shower, all his stuff was gone and I was stuck with the entire week's hotel cost and no ride home. FML
Today, I found out my boyfriend can't swim and we are about to go on a romantic holiday to Zanzibar where all our excursions include water-based activities. His solution is that I just go do them all by myself. FML
Today, it's the first day of my Hawaiian honeymoon. We found out that the pool is under construction and our room is infested with roaches. We are paying $375 a night for this. FML

You've been together over a year and you didn't know that he hates the outdoors? I gotta say YDI.

He seems like a jerk...any normal person would at least try to enjoy themselves when the significant other put in that much effort. Sorry, that sucks! On the upside you are in Hawaii!

It only cost you $4000 to go to hawaii...including airfare, car or other transportation rental, and hotel or accomadations... I normally don't do this and i get mad people who do but i call bs. You CANT get to hawaii for $4000, maybe a plane ticket but transportation rental and accomidations? Unless your family or you own a place there or have a friend there who owns a place...unless the 4000 doesn't include all the other costs. But you deserve it even if this is true because you should've realized not to spend so much on something which your bf won't like...

Ugh, who the hell can hate the outdoors? I guess if you had insane allergies or something, but there's still the beach. He sounds like an anti-social jerk. Also; I think I can get why the OP would have spent so much money on the trip - even people who don't enjoy long walks/hiking/all that good stuff, it's Hawaii. If you look for it, there's going to be something to do there.

I'm married ... if my wife did something like this I would be so grateful. You are not even married and you made this type of gesture. He is a bitch ...

you deserve it you should know he doesnt like the outdoors if youve been together for a year. but since hes being such a baby you should go find someone who enjoys hawaii to spend your vaca with while he sits in the room alone

Take a surfing lesson and ditch your lame boyfriend for your instructor. Some of those surf instructors are HOT, and you'll have more fun without your boyfriend.

okay so maybe the OP should've known that her bf doesn't like the outdoors (if she didn't know). But even if she did know that maybe he wasn't a fan of outdoorsy things, I would take that to mean he doesn't like hiking and stuff like that. I would say YDI if the OP had taken him camping or something, but it's HAWAII. Not exactly what I would think of as being outdoorsy. The bf needs to try a little harder to at least try to have fun on the great vacation the OP paid for, instead of just reading alone in the hotel room. I mean, really, he needs to grow up a little.

i'm surprised you didn't know he didn't like the outdoors but he should still appreciate the effort you put into the trip
