Love: Today, my boyfriend and I are looking at places to stay to meet...

Today, my boyfriend and I are looking at places to stay to meet for the first time. I figured renting a small vacation apartment would be ideal because he's not able to help pay because he isn't working and I'm not rich. He's telling me he can only be comfortable in 4 star hotels. FML

Today, my boyfriend told me he needed to reconsider coming to see me for financial reasons. I'm the one paying for the airfare, giving him a place to stay, and covering his expenses while he's here. FML

Happy Holidays!

Today, I’m in Las Vegas on vacation with my boyfriend and his dad. After staying in his dad’s dirty, dusty, toilet-broken Arizona cabin, we’re now in a cheap, shady, smoke-filled Vegas motel. I’m picking the hotels next time. FML

Today, after working another double shift because I want to buy my boyfriend a really expensive anniversary present, I get to his apartment to find him calculating in how many paychecks he'll be able to afford a Caribbean getaway. For himself. FML

Today, my boyfriend took me on a romantic weekend away at a hotel. What is he doing now? On his computer looking up stuff on Craigslist while I am watching t.v. alone. FML

Your love is cancelled

By Anonymous - 05/04/2023 16:00 - United States

Today, and for the past few weeks, I've been dating a new guy. Things were going well, we had planned a romantic weekend getaway, but when we got to the hotel, we found out that our reservation had been cancelled. The hotel was fully booked, and we had to spend the night in separate rooms at a sketchy motel. FML

Insecure dudes everywhere

Today, my boyfriend gave me an ultimatum: either cancel my amazing work trip or stay with him. I chose the trip and he assured me he’d be gone by the time I got back. His issue? My boss thought it’d be cheaper to get an AirBnB instead of getting us all hotel rooms, and that men are also going. FML

Today, I told my unemployed boyfriend to pick a town anywhere in the country that he thinks he can find work in. I offered to find myself a job there, find a flat, and pay for rent, bills, and food while he looks. He said I was selfish for wanting him to hurry up. It's been three years. FML

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 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'm on vacation. I spent $4000 to surprise my boyfriend on a trip to Hawaii. We have been together over a year. Turns out, he hates the outdoors. He's mad at me for bringing him here and is upset at everything. He's in the room reading, I'm at the bar drinking $10 Mai Tai's. FML

Tell him that he can pay for it and he will change his mind.

Regardless of him being a douchebag for trying to get you to spend more money than you can afford - do you feel it's alright to meet a stranger in a vacation spot, probably away from your hometown? If he's your boyfriend you should be able to meet at his or your place, I mean, does he not want to know how or where you live or anything about your friends or family? This doesn't sound safe at all, please take care of yourself OP.

It's already been said many times but I just want to reiterate- why are you staying in an apartment together when you've never met? Meet in a public place like a park or restaurant etc. a few times before that.

He "can't" help pay and yet he's making extravagant demands. Can you not spot this guy is a user? Don't bother meeting him.

You see? It's not just girls who are high maintenance. Anyone can be. Ditch the spoiled brat.

He really shouldn't have demands like that when he's not paying. Might be a good idea to find someone else.

If you fall for this idiot's game then you absolutely deserve it.

Dump his sorry ass before you even meet him. I can't understand why young women will put up with a loser to just have a boyfriend. You're better off alone than with someone who just wants a sugar-mama.

How do we known this is a young woman? For all we know she could be a 60 year old widow "new to the game." Regardless, this is so risky and I can't believe someone of any age would consider this. Yes. I have done some risky things in my life but this is just so reckless.
