Today, I spent a solid four hours and over one hundred dollars preparing a nice fancy meal for my new girlfriend. A delicious three pound rack of ribs with a sweet and sour marinade. Steam broccoli with melted cheese. Home made buttermilk biscuits. I serve the meal. She doesn't eat beef. FML

That sucks, but before you go all-out on a meal like that you should at least know what she likes and doesn't like.

LOL, that's just like "how to lose a guy in 10 days!" that sucks. I mean, how could you have known unless she told you? it's not exactly a first date question.

If she didn't say anything, then you can't really be blamed. People seem to like to hold things back until the last second, and also since alot of comments that get read here are really long, I'm going to write alot of words that don't pertain to this FML at all to see how many people notice this, since you guys like reading alot, here it is. It probably could have been longer but that's ok, it's still long enough to catch your eye, isn't it?

Ok, to all the people who say dump her, DICK MOVE. Not eating beef isn't that hard to accommodate. Man up and respect her views. She doesn't dump him FOR eating beef, hmm?! hmm?! That's right. Crawl back in your prehistoric hole until you can learn to live with people!

serves you right for knowing nothing about your girlfriend and not knowing how to spell marinade.

Sucks to be you nerd. Good try, though.

Ummm, hello, if she was a vegetarian or even if she wasn't used to eating beef, consuming your meal would have gotten her sick. Meat, if not regularly eaten, is very difficult for the body to digest (heck, it's always hard to digest). Any vegetarian will tell you that even a small bit of meat will get them very sick (I'd know, I am one). So, pretty much: #1- you should have asked her about dietary details (what if she was allergic to beef?) #2- you should stop going to whatever grocery store ripped you off #3- you should learn how to cook something that wont take four hours.

Holy crap, I hate vegetarians, man! People who can't eat meat these days are SO SELFISH! Honestly- unless it was religious, like not eating pork, I would have gone ahead and eaten it, just to please my gf! If my girlfriend spent 100 bucks on dinner for ME, I'd eat fish eyeballs and drink blood for her, if it'd make her happy! Cuz for one, I always love my girlfriends for who they are, and the fact that they appreciate me/love me is the best feeling in the entire world, right up there with actual sex... and id gratefully return the favor by eating it, if i knew it'd make her happy. but vegetarians man, they're cold heartless b*tch types..... they hatefully and coldly stick to their "i dont eat meat" even though the french fries they eat are cooked in animal fat, and they are OK with being in a society that kills animals..... in other words, they don't do SHIT about stoppign animals from dying, and they dont make a difference! They just ACT like they do! They want all of the benefits, but none of the work! They want to be able to LOOK LIKE they're all pro-animals, you know to be able to act like they're all dignified, and taking a stand on something. well, they're not doing sh*t. and its not even for that good of a cause. those animal rights people wanna make a difference? Go join a missionary service and give bibles to people in poor areas, or go over to try to stop the slayings in darfur, or the civil wars in africa, or volunteer to stop the drug wars between mexican drug cartels and the police! They want to make a difference? Donate the money they spend on high-expense organic vegan foods, and give it to starving children in Haiti!!! But they aren't doing CRAP by simply neglecting to eat meat, when the death of the animals shows in every product they use, every breath of air they breath, every step they take in this country, in the electricity they use for their house, the water they use for their baths, the gas they use for their nice hybrid cars, and even on the computer they type on! All they are is show!

can you say "how to lose a guy in ten days"... maybe you should take the hint haha

first off- do you people not read the comments on these at all? there has been like 8 people that said ribs can come in more than one varitey-i happen to prefer beef ribs. they are real, not rare and quite easy to find ANYWHERE. second-i wouldnt really blame either of them. he said it was his NEW gf-he could have been trying to surprise her and the topic of her meat choices may not have come up in conversation. im pretty sure if he had any idea at all she didnt eat beef he wouldnt have spent that much money and and worked that hard. and she may not have thought to bring it up... third- $100!! i mean, sure there may have been some way for that to add up, but really. you spent that much on your NEW gf's dinner. i would have saved some money and still hooked up some nice grub... no worries- save it, freeze-invite some friends over and dig in!

No one said ribs where only beef...a large percentage of them at pork SOOOO....you could have told her that unless she couldnt eat meat than ur just dumb
