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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my long-distance British boyfriend of 7 years canceled his plane ticket to visit me in the USA. He claims he "doesn't have enough money" to stay for 2 weeks. As I began canceling all the reservations, he called to say he bought a new car and a house. FML
Today, I spent 900 dollars on a ticket for my boyfriend to visit me and he missed the flight. 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, 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
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 boyfriend wanted to take me to a movie after days of not seeing me. This long-awaited date involved me paying for food and my movie ticket when he ran out of cash again. He then dumped me as we left the theater walking to his car. Yes, I financed my own breakup date. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I are looking at places to stay to meet for the first time. I figured renting a small vacation apartment would be ideal because he's not able to help pay because he isn't working and I'm not rich. He's telling me he can only be comfortable in 4 star hotels. FML
Today, my boyfriend decided to visit me at work. With another girl. FML
Today, my boyfriend wanted me to sleep over at his house. Then he found out that it was that time of the month for me, so he told me that he had to work this weekend and said "see you sometime next week." He doesn't have a job. FML
Today, my boyfriend came home from a two week vacation and told me I needed to move out. FML

Tell him he needs better excuses [: Look on the bright side, MAYBE he feels bad for you, because you pay everything and wants a girl where he can be able to pay also. Or maybe he is just a gold digger. Good Luck though xD

Strand him there. Tell your credit card company you didn't order any of it.

he probably has to take off work to see you though. but why would you want a guy who can't afford his own stuff? think of this as a blessing in disguise, and get yourself someone who can support himself.

This is funny because I am about to visit my long-distanced girlfriend only it's the other way around - I'm paying. :) That's the way it should be anyway.. you paying for him shows the lack of his dedications you're better off without him.

I'm with #5. Not that he has to always be 100% on top of things, but you definately want someone who take care of himself, make goals and keep them. Especially if they are important to him, like visiting a girlfriend should be. you're probably better off in the long run

Maybe you should find a boyfriend who is capable of paying his own way. Not to be shallow, but he sounds like a loser.

Agree with #6; if you have to pay, then maybe his heart's not in it. Unless he's worried about taking off work or something. Still, he's not being up-front with you about something, and you may be better off without him if he's not going to be open with you.

Maybe he felt bad that you were paying for everything, so he wants to pay for it himself. But I don't know your boyfriend, so I may very well be wrong.
