Love: Today, I travelled across an ocean to visit the guy I'm dating....

By gullible - 21/02/2010 02:38 - United States

Today, I travelled across an ocean to visit the guy I'm dating. He lied to me about his apartment; he lives in a dorm with a twin-sized bed and a bathroom he shares with 8 guys. Just now, after taking 3 trains from the airport to his "apt", he asked me to edit his essay while he goes to class. FML

Today, I changed all my plans, after months of him begging me to, so I could go to the same university as my long-term boyfriend. After I sent in my deposit, he told me we couldn't live together in college because I was "invading his space." FML

Today, I woke up in my boyfriend's dorm and decided to take a shower before he woke up. I used the girls bathroom on the above floor, and afterwards just threw on a towel and ran to the elevator. I forgot to press my boyfriend's floor and I was taken to the lobby in a towel. People were waiting. FML

Today, I moved three hours away from my boyfriend for college. Even though he got accepted to the same school and had a job lined up in town, he decided not to come with me because the Internet at our apartment wasn't going to be fast enough for his gaming. FML

Today, I went over to the house of a guy I have hooked up with a few times. After we got done, I asked him why we were not in the room across the hall. He said that was his twin brother's room. FML

Today, I found out the person that I’ve been casually seeing has decided he wants to live with me. I found this out when I asked him to go home after two weeks sleeping over, and he told me he'd already moved out of his mom’s. I sublet a single bedroom and have barely enough room for myself. FML

Today, my long-distance boyfriend was at my house for a 10-day visit. He told me that we'd never spent so much time together, so he didn't know me well and now, he'd finally met the "real me". He doesn't like it. FML

Today, I got back from a romantic vacation at a fancy hotel with my boyfriend of 6 months. After a steamy love session, I confessed that I was in love with him. Later, when I got out of the shower, all his stuff was gone and I was stuck with the entire week's hotel cost and no ride home. FML

Today, I spent 12 hours in an airport rather than go back to the apartment of the man I traveled to see for the weekend. Instead of wine, dine, sixty-nine, he took me to a tailgating event and introduced me to two girls he had a threesome with. FML

If it's an online relationship, I'm sorry to say you kinda deserved it. if you knew him, and he simply moved away, then FYL.

Sounds like he should be an ex boyfriend real quick. I'd have left after he did, leaving it unedited. What an asshole!

Oh no. My boyfriend is clearly still in college and its unthinkable that he should have roomates. Why isn't he rich and independent and living on his own? He probably just knew that you wouldn't come to visit him if he said he had male roomates. And if he lives in a different country, I would say he doesn't get to see you that often. Yes, he lied, but that's more of a slap on the wrist that an "OMG he's messed dump him". Also, maybe he just knows that you're a better writer than he is, or didn't want you to be bored. Or wanted your opinions. My friends ask me to edit their stuff all the time, and I read my stuff to my boyfriend for his opinions. You should probably talk to him, that complaining on FML.

uhhlana: It's kind of interesting, reading the comments on FMLs. It gives you an interesting sample of the thought processes of the population at large. I am always intrigued to find people who will excuse aberrant behavior in others and condemn normal behavior. Let me get this straight: The OP is bad for expecting him to have painted an accurate picture of his life and to be happy to see her, but the "boyfriend" is in the clear for: -Lying about his living conditions. -Not caring enough about her to take the train out to the airport to retrieve her after she flew to see him. -Not having arranged to spend some time with her upon her arrival. -Putting her to work editing his essay, which he should have done. Hmmmm. In case you missed the wording, he didn't sit with her and read the essay to her for her opinion, he handed it to her and said "edit this" while he went to do something else. Upon their first meeting. He's a callous ass, and if you don't have a reading comprehension problem, so are you.

I know a couple who met online while he was living in Europe and she in North America. They got to know each other and fell in love. He, being a poor student, saved every penny he had to fly to her country and marry her. When he arrived, he discovered that she was over 400 lbs. and had no job or education. He is fit and gorgeous with a sexy accent and a Ph D. He married her because he had already developed feelings for her and couldn't admit to himself that all the weight was a deal breaker for him. They've been married for about 10 years now, and she's still huge, and they still fight about her weight. He's stuck married to someone who embarrasses him because she lied and he couldn't turn his back. Online relationships can be wonderful, but they should come with a HUGE sticker on them that says: BUYER BEWARE! Just as in offline relationships, these days you should really do a background check, credit check, psychological test, family history and general physical on a person before getting serious. 'Cause these days? Bitches be crazy. :)
