Today, I finished moving cross-country and signed a 13 month lease to be closer to my on-again / off-again boyfriend of the past five years. I showed up at his place to borrow his truck just as his "local" girlfriend was leaving. FML

I'm the OP. I originally moved away from him to finish my degree/get my Masters. We've been on and off because he runs private security for the government and spends the majority of his time overseas. I signed a 13 month lease because I wanted to live in a house and I have two big dogs. He was all for me moving out here. Long story short, IMO: the situation blows, we're over and done with, and I have an awesome new house/job in Vegas.

kinda of a stupid thing, the move closer to a guy whose on-again/off-again. I'm guessing your desperate, or you don't know your self worth.

what can you expect from an on and off relationship obviously he wasn't taking you serious why would you move??? I hope you moved during the ON time because moving during the OFF time to "try" to make it work would make you more of a stupid hopeless

"On-again/off-again" sounds like a really great night, but when applied over a five-year span: NOT SEXY! The OP made a really bad decision, but as a consolation prize, I offer this poem. Her honor she offered Her offer I honored So, all night long It was honor and offer! -Anonymous

wow you moved across country for a guy your not exactly dating. and this helps to show that online/ long distance relation ships don't work, one of the people in them normally always has some one else, or are married and are online to get some refresher in their life. did you talk to him or no? and ydi for chasing a relation ship that's not totally there.

No, this does NOT help to show that "long distance relationships don't work." This goes to show that this particular couple should have worked out where they stood before she made such a drastic decision to move. You cannot possibly judge all long distance relationships based on one unstable couple.

don't talk about things you don't understand. i had a long-distance relationship for over a year, and we are now engaged. we lived 800 miles away from each other, and i never worried about him. if it's meant to be, it will be. long-distance relationships can and do work. it's not always easy, and it sure as hell isn't fun, but you get through it.

God, YDI for packing up and moving across the country for a guy who you weren't even engaged to. I'm sorry he was cheating on you, that must have sucked, but you were stupid enough to throw away your life for a guy who didn't even like you enough to stay with you for any amount of time. I don't see why you would make such a big change for someone who couldn't commit to you at all. This is why women are always portrayed as weak and naive, because they ruin themselves over any guy who gives them a second glance.

why would she be engaged to someone after long distance dating, dumb response. she obviously wanted to see a if there was anything there. I say she should chase the local ***** off and go for what she came for!

moving cross country to be with someone you describe as "on-again off again" is not an FML. It is simply telling the world that you are cripplingly unintelligent. Also, 5 years of "on-again off again" makes you a drama queen.

I think the real FML victims are going to be the 17 illegitimate children you give birth to someday. Let's pray they don't get your intelligence, or lackthereof.
