This needs more information. The way this is written, it's a YDI because you paid for their trip and then complain about it. But I hope there's more to it.

Did you offer to pay for them, or were you supposed to go with them (but for whatever reason didn't)? In the first case, YDI; second case, FYL.

I’m confused! You’re wealthy enough to pay for at least three trips to Paris, yet you can’t afford an Uber to the airport? If your “friends” somehow bound and gagged you to prevent you from coming, call Homeland Security and tip them off that your “friends” are meeting with their ISIS contact in France. Their next free vacation will be to Guantanamo Bay!

I would have not paid for it if I didn’t get to go.

Today, my boyfriend dumped me. He says he can’t be with someone who doesn’t love his dog as much as he does. I told him that I have absolutely no problem with the dog being in the room, but it makes me uncomfortable when the dog is on the bed while we have sex. Apparently, that’s unreasonable. FML

Today, I figured out my girlfriend's mother has various nicknames for me. My girlfriend and her family are from Poland and speak on the phone in their native tongue, but they don’t know I’ve been learning the language either. I heard her call me “idiot”, “loser”, “moron” and various other “nicknames” multiple times. FML
