Today, my boyfriend told me he wanted to drive to India. Thinking he meant Indiana, I said sure, knowing I have friends there. He said, "Bangladesh, India, here we come!" He was serious. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I called my boyfriend to tell him how excited I was to drive 12 hours to see him and his new house. His girlfriend answered. FML
Today, I asked my boyfriend to go to the airport with me, to see me off for my three-month stay abroad. He said no because the two-hour drive is "too boring". FML
Today, my boyfriend, who lives 100 miles away and whom I haven't seen in 2 months, told me he was visiting my city with some friends. I assumed this was an opening to an invitation, but no, he just asked me about the best places to get drunk. FML
Today, my boyfriend took me to a restaurant for lunch and said, “It’s time we talk about our future.” I got all emotional, thinking he was going to propose. Instead, he calmly told me he’s moving to another country. I cried into my breadsticks. FML
Today, I excitedly told my parents I was going to India for an exotic vacation in two months. My dad responded with a "DO NOT REDEEM THE VACATION!" reaction in a racist voice while laughing. My mom snorted and fake-chastised him while also laughing. FML
Today, I was meeting friends for dinner at an Indian restaurant. I was waiting for the group to arrive and our table to be ready. An Indian man approached me smiling, so I said, "We're not ready for our table yet." Then I realized it was my friend's boyfriend, who I've met several times. FML
Today, I drove three and a half hours to surprise my long distance boyfriend for our anniversary. He was out of town. Where was he? Three and a half hours away trying to surprise me. FML
Today, my suburban, white boyfriend of two years told me he wanted to tell me something serious. He sat me down, looked me in the eye and said "I want to be gangster." I started laughing thinking he was joking. He was 100% serious. 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 had to go pick up his family from the airport. I assumed he meant his parents. He apologized and said he meant his wife and child. They'd got their Visas sooner than he'd thought. FML

Hey India could be fun! Just try not to get lost or kidnapped. Of course I don't know how you'll drive across the ocean but, meh, thats all just logistics

Right? He better have made sure his car can go across the ocean or this trip will be such a let down.

YDI OP for choosing looks over brains >.>

But we don't know the bf is hot...

And so what if he's stupid? She could still love him for who he is.
incoherentrmblr 22
You're going to want to invest in and Amphicar or an AeroCar. They exist, but they're pretty damn old...

Also, PS: Bangladesh is a separate country from India.

It concerns me he doesn't realize those are two separate countries.
junkman6 22
Just ride a ferry across the ocean. That's obviously what he meant right? That was sarcasm. Maybe I should have typed "fairy" to make it more obvious.
NessaMae 19
It took me a second to realize he said two different country names. I thought, wait, I don't think Bangladesh is in India? And then it hit me. OP should give him a map.
CelticSkye 13
What I want to know is this...what was the OP's BF's plan to get across the ocean when he was told he'd need to cross it.
drshn 22
Oh gee. you seem to have mistaken India with Mexico or some south American countries. just because we have brown skin doesn't mean we all kidnap. Grow up. She won't even get lost because people speak decent English and generally like to help.
livamour 17
While I did get upset that the person mentioned kidnapping like that's an Indian norm, I don't think you should put down South America.
Ali_Br_fml 33
People always say things about getting lost and/or kidnapped when others are traveling to foreign countries or places. Don't worry # 60, it's not just your country they say that joke about. Well, people do that to me, at least... I really hope she hops in the car with him, films it, and posts his reaction when he realizes he can't get there by car alone on YouTube or something. That would be funny...if she has the time, of course. ;)
Ali_Br_fml 33
And hey, maybe he wants to go to both places...or he was just pulling her leg, and trying to be extremely obvious about pointing out his mistake so he wouldn't have to continue with the prank/joke...or he's just THAT stupid...

that and the crossing of the ocean on a car...

True.

Have you ever tried routing on google maps? They suggest a canoe

I lost it at the logistics part.

Go via Alaska. Yep, that should work.
unixdude 9
Drive to Alaska and take the ferry from Sarah Palin's house obviously.
meepmerp 20
Check to see if he booked you, you might be able to cancel. On the other hand, good luck driving to India!
NessaMae 19
I'm pretty sure he can't book tickets to Bangladesh, India. Since it doesn't exist and they're two different countries.
AlaskanG 27
What are you talking about? Booked her for what?
meepmerp 20
Meant hotels... Just realized how stupid my comment is

^Thats the sound of the post flying right over your head
ironichalibut 24
It's gonna be rough riding, but if you head due north, drive onto an ice flow, do a hop across the North Pole, hop another ice flow, carefully drive through Russia and around some mountains, and bam, easy as that, you drove to India!

Hope they have an extra large gas tank...

Maybe he has an Amphicar.
joselgarciac 9
the problem is gonna be getting to Bangladesh India...
VorpikeII 17
Pah, planes are for scrubs. Just drive along the sea floor, I'm sure you'll be fine.

Psssh..... If it works for Sponge bob and Patrick, I don't see why it can't work for OP!

Jesus turned into a car
thomcmoore 23
No...no, Jesus never turned into a car.
Zebediabolical 45
Maybe not, but he built my Hot Rod. It's a love affair. Mainly between Jesus. And my car.

#7 is right everyone knows all you have to do is roll up the windows
Amanyyyyyy 29
You thought he meant Indiana when he clearly said India?
NessaMae 19
Simple mistake anyone could make, I think? Since the names are similar and Indiana is where some of her friends are at.
ZannityZan 13
I guess he said he wanted to drive there, so OP assumed he was talking about a place within the same land mass and not somewhere with a great big ocean in between.
Fuaaad1994 31
Idiotic as your boyfriend may be, he sounds like a fun person
zandalee 20
Maybe he owns Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. As a kid that was my dream car. Actually it's still my dream car!

Poor guy just needs a quick geography lesson. Help him out:)

He must have thought India was right next to Indiana that's all :)

India is a lot of fun! Don't forget to wear bug spray
Wiringify 22
You may want to apply it after you cross the ocean so it won't wear off from the water.
