Today, I went to pick up my long distance boyfriend at the airport. It has been over six months since I last saw him and four days since I last heard from him. He never showed up. FML

Today, I went to the airport to pick up my long distance boyfriend. Having waited six months for this, I was stoked. After waiting for three hours and sending numerous messages, I was eventually informed I was a week early. FML

Today, the guy I have been seeing left town to visit his family for three weeks. A few hours later, he called me from the airport to say he is never coming back. FML

Today, I flew 8 hours to visit my boyfriend. When I arrived at the airport, and he started taking long to show up, I checked my email to see the info. I hit the junk mail by accident and found his last 10 emails in there. He had broken up with me a week ago. FML

Today, after patiently waiting to see my boyfriend for a month because he was overseas, I excitedly went to the airport to finally pick him up, only for him to walk straight past me to greet his friends. He didn't even bring back anything for me, but brought back a suitcase full of goodies for his friends. FML

Today, I flew to England to visit my boyfriend, who has been working there for the past three months. I went to his hotel and waited for him; he never showed up. I called one of his colleagues to ask him what was going on. He had no idea what I was talking about. FML

Today, I saw my long-distance boyfriend for the first time in 8 months. He dumped me on the spot because I was "uglier" than he remembered. FML

Today, it's been a week since I flew down to stay with my long-distance boyfriend. We went on long walks on the shore, under the stars, and had an unforgettable picnic viewing the sunset. I just now received a message of screenshots displaying him attempting to hook up with another girl. FML

Today, my girlfriend of six months dumped me over the phone. I'm in the military and recently had to move away to another fort. We'd agreed that we would try to make long distance work. I'd even offered to buy a plane ticket to come see her each weekend. I've been gone less than two weeks. FML

Today, I filed a missing persons report on my boyfriend. He was out fishing and then was supposed to meet me for a romantic weekend getaway. He never showed up and didn't respond to my texts. I found out, courtesy of a voicemail from the sheriff's department, that he'd broken up with me. FML

Hey, OP here. It actually wasn't New Years, but it was a few days after. I finally heard from him after a week. He was hit by a car while crossing the street. Broken ribs, punctured lung and a fractured arm. He is doing much better, but is still recovering.

I mean, it's a lot better than flying to see someone and then them never showing up. However, I don't think I'd have bothered to get someone from the airport if I hadn't heard from them the 4 days prior.

Let me guess -- it's New Year's Day? I guess he wanted the keep the distance between you long.

Yeah the fact that you guys were supposed to meet and he couldn’t find a way to reach you within four days is your sign

If you're waiting six months plus to meet up, he may have decided it's not worth you staying together, and this is his way of saying it's over. Kudos for sticking with it, though. Not many people can handle long distance relationships.

Reasons to give them the benefit of the doubt at first. I'm glad he's ok! Hopefully he can make it out soon for real this time.

Well, I still think he or someone else would have been able to let you know, it really shouldn’t take 11 days(?) to just send a text or call? I doubt he’s been unconsious all that time...
