Today, my husband told me that he can't find his passport. We're supposed to be leaving for Prague in two days. He's known about the trip for months. It was the anniversary vacation that was going to help our frayed relationship. Now my money is going to a hotel in Prague, but I'm not. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, after months of planning and saving for our honeymoon in Italy, my wife and I were turned away at the airport because my passport only has a month until it expires, even though it's only a five-day trip. FML
Today, the day before my wife and I leave for our 1 year anniversary trip, I realized my passport expires in 2014, not 2015. Instead of a week's stay at an all-inclusive resort in the Dominican Republic, we'll be spending three days in Louisville. Three angry days in Louisville. FML
Today, I found out that my husband booked one-way tickets for our family to another country, without any return flights or even a place to stay, or money to navigate anything. We're living with my income, and I’m not sure if I want a divorce or a protective order against him. FML
Today, my fiancé forgot his wallet. He realized this once we were 5 hours away from home, before checking into a hotel, that had reservations under his name. FML
Today, I found out that my passport expired two days ago, two days before my first vacation abroad. I only found out when the airline employee scanned it at check-in, looked at me with sympathy, and said, "I don't think you're going anywhere today." My friends are currently posting beach photos while I'm filling out passport renewal forms. FML
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 went with my girlfriend to the airport for some much needed vacation time. We arrived on time but were stopped at the gate when they told me I didn't have the right passport. The plane left without me. My girlfriend did too. FML
Today, I was unable to go on my dream vacation because I thought I'd lost my passport. Feeling incredibly stupid, I had no choice but to watch my plane depart without me. Shortly after, my brother handed me passport, saying that since I wasn't going on my trip, I could use my refund to pay for his cat's surgery. My trip was non-refundable. FML
Today, I found out less than three weeks before my wedding that my fiancé will lose his new, great paying job, unless we cancel our nonrefundable honeymoon. 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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Um..... no one has mentioned that he has TWO days to find it... it shouldn't be that hard. And if he honestly said that he can't go because he can't find his passport two days before the trip, then he probably doesn't want to go. Sorry.

go without him!!!!! you'll feel lonely at first but it'll be the most uplifting experience you've had in a while. itll be some good soul searching...do you want to be with someone who clearly doesnt care about your feelings or your relationship?? go to the shops you want, hang out at the cafes you want and sight see what you want!!! **** him. I travel alone and I find it liberating. you meet some of the most interesting people that way too. good luck and I hope you do go.

You should have left without his ass. If he really cared at all, he would have gotten his things together. Leave him.

he can get a new passport... same day at any passport center like in Detroit... as long as the trip is less than 2 weeks away... cost is $160 for an expedited passport/replacement. he can go in morning to apply and pick it up by 4 pm same day.

This person is from the UK... the fast track is unavailable for replacement passports (or any service which in essence issues a "new" passport) as a fraud prevention measure, thus 1 week is the shortest period for a replacement. The 1-day service is only available for renewal of expired passports, or amending details on existing passports.
