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

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

How are you not getting that this is his way of saying it's not working? Long distance is stupid. YDI.

And who's gonna pay his rent and bills while he's away? People don't think about these things, he obviously did making him a smart man. It's pretty shallow to think otherwise, use your brains people.

ya you have to consider that maybe especially with the way the economy is right now he can't afford to take the time off work, i mean companies are looking for people that have the dedication to stick around and he probably has some bills to pay so it might not be as bad as it sounds, i havent taken a vacation in 3 years for those exact reasons.

maybe he didn't want you to have to pay for him because it makes him feel like a loser. haha i wish my ex would have changed his mind before i paid for everything for him. at least you'll be saving money.

He is either trying to break it with you, or he feels bad that you are paying for a everything.

I had an ex like this. Turns out, as long as he got emotional support from me on the phone, he could get the physical support wherever he wanted. If he's not cheating on you, then he doesn't think you guys are going to last much longer and is just trying to save you the money. It sucks. Alot. But you can get over him. Good luck!

Maybe he just can't afford to take the time off work because he needs the money to pay his own rent or school or something?

maybe he is caring for you and doesn't want to use too much of your money?
