The price of love

By broke - 05/05/2009 04:07 - United States

Today, I got home from visiting my long-distance girlfriend. I spent $366 to get a plane ticket to visit her for the week. The day after I arrived there, she broke up with me and I had to buy a ticket for an earlier flight home. With fees and penalties, I paid around $550 to be broken up with. FML

What a bitch. Usually I believe a face-to-face break up is best, but in situations like this....it just isn't. Sorry, dude. :(

#27 youre an idiot, i was reading this on my iphone and found a computer to tell you how much of an idiot you are, if you really think it was an online relationship don't you think she would've broken up with him ONLINE? how does he deserve it? he paid to visit his "long distance girlfriend" not "online girlfriend" (pay attention) and she broke up with him, HALFWAY through his visit; and that was cute how u tried to justify your assumptions, almost anticipating someone to make fun of you and to all the people saying "atleast she did it in person -would you really rather spend almost $600 and most likely take a weekend off work to visit your bf/gf to be broken up with a day before you leave? or would u rather be broken up with over a phone call? if you picked in person you should mail me money cause you don't deserve it

Your ex-girlfriend is a stupid ,stupid bitch. I'm so sorry you had to go through that, be glad it's over, 'cause she sounds like a crazy one.

I've been there. I know it sucks. Except my long distance boyfriend pretended like everything was okay for the week I was there and broke up with me out of the blue right when I was leaving.

Why would you pay all those fees to go back early? take the rest of the trip as a vacation. Anyway, she should have broken up with you over the phone.

what you PROBABLY forgot to mention is that you guys were already in a bad place concerning your relationship and you thought you could save it if you just went home and tried to make up or w/e... so it's nobody's fault but your own that you spent all that money. and she PROBABLY told you not to bother because there was really no point in trying to salvage the relationship... now how would i guess all this? because i'm the girl that dumped him, and he cheated on me with my sister. nice try though.

Eek. What a bitch. I bet she thought it would be honest to tell it to your face which is a niave move because you're out a whole bunch of money on a girl who doesn't care. But #38 does bring up a good point even though [s]he is more than likely just a troll and not the real girlfriend: did she tell you not to bother coming out to see her?

If she wanted to dump you in person, she should have visited you.

forget that noise! that almost happened to me. trip already booked. unexpectedly got dumped days before the trip. I demanded that he reimburse me for plane ticket expenses for being such a dick and waiting until the last minute to break up a long-term long distance thing. i paid a change-flight fee and went to visit a friend and have fun in another city instead.
