Today, I told my boyfriend I wouldn't be able to get any time off work to go to Mexico with him, and that we'd have to get our tickets refunded, and reschedule. He said not to bother, and that he already had someone else in mind to take with him. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I gave my boyfriend our festival tickets to keep hold of while I excitedly went home to get ready. He took someone else. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me he needed to reconsider coming to see me for financial reasons. I'm the one paying for the airfare, giving him a place to stay, and covering his expenses while he's here. FML
Today, I canceled all my plans because my boyfriend wanted to go on a date. He didn't mean with me. FML
Today, I found out the time I'd requested off for a trip in 2 months, that my boss said that I could go on, wasn't fully processed, just in case he decided I couldn't go. He told me the second part after I'd bought no refund tickets for shows for both me and my girlfriend. FML
Today, my boyfriend gave me an ultimatum: either cancel my amazing work trip or stay with him. I chose the trip and he assured me he’d be gone by the time I got back. His issue? My boss thought it’d be cheaper to get an AirBnB instead of getting us all hotel rooms, and that men are also going. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me for asking to spend time with him after not seeing him very much in three months, because he doesn’t have time for me and is so stressed out he doesn’t have time for fun. Then he decided he should go to Mexico with the people he works and lives with so they could have fun together. FML
Today, I texted my boyfriend of two years and asked if he wanted to go to ball with me. His response was "The person you are trying to message cancelled their phone service and moved to Mexico. Taco taco burrito." I'll take that as a no. FML
Today, I had to cancel plans to go to the movies with the guy I've had a crush on for months due to a sudden case of the flu. This was already rescheduled from yesterday, when I had to cancel due to bad weather (after he had already left home). He thinks that I'm just making excuses not to see him. FML
Today, I ran into my boyfriend at the mall, the same boyfriend who'd told me he was going on a family vacation to Mexico. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me he was going to take me out somewhere special, so I called in sick for work. Turns out he had made reservations for the restaurant I worked at. FML

Seriously... Maybe the boyfriend is acting like a dick for telling you he already has someone else in mind to bring along, but don't you usually take off work and THEN book your trip, instead of booking your trip and then trying to get off work that time? I say you partly deserve it for making this a logistic disaster yourself.

Dump him OP. An idiot like him is not worth your time and isn't worth you taking time off your job.

In most relationships, it is acceptable to go on holliday with a friend. Don't worry, and try planning a new holliday on a moment you DO know you are able to join in.

When he leaves, move the hell out. You deserve better.

So is the other person his new girlfriend, or is he just not allowed to go places without you? Since the FML doesn't specify, it's hard to tell whether the boyfriend is an exceptional asshole or if OP is an exceptional control freak.

Aye, though it's FHerL either way.

Not cool of him however if my husband & I had tickets to travel I wouldn't expect him to return them just cause I couldn't go that's pretty selfish. Secondly, I would buy tickets to travel unless it was already approved off, that's retarded.

I don't quite get why people are saying she must be an exceptional control freak if she doesn't want him going with someone else. For all we know this could be a trip they've been thinking about and planning for ages (though with a bit of a failure on the time off part), so him casually saying he's been thinking about who else he could do it with could be quite a dick move, really. You don't have to be controlling to be excited about doing something together.
