I call B. S. on this. How is he traveling Europe and not stopping, even for a rest in an internet cafe to at least check in with his mom once or twice during the trip? There has to be internet at a hostel or hotel he is staying at. It isn't like he is trekking through a pristine jungle for two weeks.

Okay, that was pretty funny, but I think she should've known he was in Europe. I don't get how she wouldn't pay attention to that if he told her. And I think that if you're in a serious relationship you would either check email or buy a phone card to keep in touch with your girlfriend. But yeah, it definetly makes her look pretty crazy. And I'd agree that she was, but like I said if he really said he was going to Europe and called to say goodbye why would she not realize that's where he was. Basically people act crazy when you mess with their emotions.

HYSTERICAL !!!!!!!!!!!!

If I were backpacking through Europe I wouldn't bother to check my email either. I would however keep my phone on, or at least check it every few days. Still, the confusing part for me here is: how did she not know he was going to Europe?? Didn't he supposedly call her the night before to say goodbye? I call b.s. as well. But if it were true she would be the crazy one, imo.

yeah, honestly, if I were in Europe, I probably wouldn't check my email at all. ANY time I go on vacation, I almost never check my email. I try and stay entirely unplugged! I think it's a personality thing.

... I find it very odd she didn't figure it out, but maybe either she's ... uh, really spacey. Or he's not quite as clear as he thinks he is? Or its bullsh*t! Who knows.

This was a sure way to break up with her without having to say it...He found a loop hole

she's crazier but his lesson#2, shouldn't have had to been a lesson and since it was it should have been #1.
Really who goes away and doesn't check in at least every few days.

I wouldn't call her crazy. Seriously, if a girl (or guy) gets emotional in any way, they are labeled crazy. As if you have never been upset, hurt, confused, or angry before. I see no sign of "crazy" here. At all. It seems unlikely that you could miss "I'm going to Europe". It also seems unlikely that it wouldn't have been discussed prior. Seems to me this guy is being a d-bag, trying to post another "funny" video to get reactions. Get a phone card, go to a library and check your email, keep your phone on. Seriously, I was gone out of the country for 3 months and I managed to keep in touch with my then-boyfriend and my family.

So yeah, who is crazy here? No one. She is being normal -- if your BF stopped calling, texting, emailing you -- um, any person on this planet would not be okay with it. He is a loser for not only keeping these emails if they are broken up and clearly not something you look back on fondly -- and then going and making a video out of it.

okay i understand why she is upset but he did tell her that he was leaving. I felt bad for the girl for the first few e-mails but once she started with the name calling and the fact that she slept with another guy out of (revenge?) I couldn't feel bad for her. also i wonder if she knew where he lived cuz if she went to his house maybe she would realize he was gone.

also when i am on vacation i do not take my phone, i do not check my e-mail, nothing, for me vacation is a time to be away from my life back home.

It's understandable why he didn't turn on his phone or check his email...some people like to fully immerse themselves into the culture of the places they are visiting, and by checking your phone or email wouldn't that defeat purpose of taking a vacation?
From the pictures, it seems like he's been to quite a few places, so he probably had a hectic schedule visiting all the different sites and didn't necessarily look for an internet cafe.
That doesn't mean she wasn't on his mind though! Anyone remember that he bought a necklace for her?

Oh yah, if my boyfriend disappeared like that for days, and his friends said they haven't seen him.... I would be more worried than angry. Who knows, maybe he got into an accident, and hurt himself but nobody knows about it. I don't recall the girlfriend getting worried for his well being..

I was feeling sorry for the dude until I went to his blog site (the URL for which shows up at the end of the video). Yeah. They deserve each other.

Talk about oblivious! I don't understand how you could totally ignore your SO talking about leaving the country for two weeks.

Ugh.

The big thing for me here is he has posted what were private e-mails and feelings on the web for everyone to see. And he has obviously posted them in a way that is slanted to make him look like the good guy. I am not saying (at all) that his girlfriend's response was in any way normal or rational, but he's no prince either.

I think it's too bizarre to be fake. I agree with Sparkle, though, I want to hear her end of it.

I don't check emails while on vacation, but how do you not call your gf at all in that whole span on time? Like not even once just to say "I miss you" or "I love you" or something as simple as "Hey, how are you?"
She may have overreacted, but he knew what he was doing.

OMG! Hilarious!

I don't think they could have been very serious, otherwise who wouldn't check in at least once on the trip!?! but either way, she is nuts

If I were traveling I probably wouldn't check my email either. Especially if it's only for two weeks. How do you not know your boyfriend is away!? She sounds way crazy.

If I were going out with someone who had obviously not listened when I said I was going away, I'd probably dump them anyway. Especially if I had said it a few times. And I don't have my phone on (roaming charges) or use the internet when I'm away either. Having said that, I can understand the confusion Em must have felt after not hearing from JD. But I would definitely have checked with either his friends or family if he was okay or what was going on, instead of going off the deep end. So in my eyes, she's the psycho one.

And the clearly drunken, "I was the one," post - "break up" emails just show a total lack of dignity.

not picking a side because I don't believe these are real. seriously? no - this guy is a WRITER

First of all, I think it's completely ridiculous to think the people in your life are going to be okay with absolutely no contact for two weeks. ESPECIALLY in a foreign country, when there are flights and such involved, you need to be able to AT LEAST make a phone call, send a frigging postcard, to let people know you are safe. Grow up, dude. But obviously the girlfriend should have known he was going to Europe. I, like others, cannot pick a side here becuase I'm fairly certain this is a stunt.

This is totally someone's idea of an artsy online project. Besides, even if the girl was too dense to understand her bf was going on vacation, one of their friends would have clued her in.

I think he did not toll her about Europe. If my bf tells me that he is going to Europe I will remember that for sure. And who goes to another continent and doesn't call the gf , nor the mom? I think that this is BS.

Agree with Chrstne and SKC sparkle!

honestly, going to europe for two weeks is not a small trip. if she didn't remember that her boyfriend was going away for two weeks....thats reason enough to break up with this girl. she doesn't sound too bright....

but anyway, how did none of his friends TELL HER he was going. i have to call BS on this.

they weren't married or engaged, they were dating. and even if he was blowing her off she's a wack job. she slept with some guy as a grudge f*ck against her boyfriend and emailed him a dozen times saying she hated/loved/hated/loved him.

when you go on vacation do all of you call your friends and family? i don't, it's vacation. a break.

WOW i loved this soooo mcuh, it made me laugh so hard.

that girl is a psycho thats for sure. TWO WEEKS! two weeks that transpired in.... even if i didnt know... i would have emailed "where are you?.... call me" but not a big dramatic scene like she created!!!

Not sure if that was real....
but if it was, the guy was an *sshole.

I disagree with most comments. The girl has her bf disappear without a trace for 2 weeks and gets upset about it and emails him trying to get a response. Oh yeah, man she should really be put in the crazy house now....wow, (rolls eyes). She really went overboard sending lots of emails...oh man. Give me a break. Her bf disappeared for 2 weeks!!!!!!! Anyone would be upset about their bf disappearing like that. If this actually is true, I have a feeling the bf wanted to dump the girl and just didn't tell her he was going on the trip and then ignored her. And then made this video to make it look like she was the crazy one, when he was the real jerk. What a typical *sshole move, make the other person look like the bad guy.
And in the other case...if the girl was just stupid and the bf told her about the trip and she just missed it somehow...the bf's still an ass. B/c maybe the girl was stupid, but he didn't need to make the end of their relationship public just to make fun of her. Geez, the guys an *sshole any way you look at it.

Just going by what's presented here, I would find in favor of the guy and pronounce the girl as possessive and loopy. He was a little irresponsible by not leaving a means of communication but he IS an adult and doesn't have to check in regularly especially in another country. The girl however was freaking out only a couple of days later WITHOUT ever worrying about her BF's health or whereabouts. She knew where his mother lived. she couldn't ask about the son? Her actions were awful and maybe they're better separated.

Obviously you'd be a little upset if your partner seemingly disappeared off the face of the Earth, but how self-absorbed/oblivious can you be to *not* know that your significant other had been planning a two week vacation? And how self-absorbed/douchey can you be to turn your break-up into a viral internet video?

If he didn't have a smart phone the roaming charges would be killer. And being that his parents and friends weren't concerned about his "disappearance" you would think she would figure it out. Classy the way she slept with her ex by the way.

I think that the name calling and cheating might be slightly overreactive. If she was so worried about him, she could've asked his friends or family if they knew where he was or if he mentioned going anywhere. I agree... Even if she has a poor memory/listening ability, if she cared at all about him she would've got it when he said he was going to be gone for two weeks. It just seems a little irrational to freak out like that without checking around first.
And yes, I too turn off my phone and don't check email when I'm traveling/on vacation/out of the country. It's called getting away for a reason!

this is funny, but it doesnt seem to be serious. i would be upset if my boyfriend seemingly stopped all contact with me, but i would also know if my boyfriend was going to europe for two weeks.

plus i agree with some posters above, she never seems to care about his health/safety? it sounds like they live close enough to each other, you'd think she'd just go check to make sure he was okay? she only seems concerned that he is dissin her or making her look like a fool. i would feel more sorry for her if she wasnt just acting like a lunatic for being ignored, but actually worried about his whereabouts, etc etc

She went crazy after a week and cheated on him. Not two weeks, keep that in mind. Look at what kind of emails she leaves after a couple of days and tell me that he is crazier.

He was backpacking, and you know what? Sometimes I don't answer my phone even though I am not on a different continent where I could get slogged with huge roaming charges for someone calling me overseas.

If she didn't even take notice that he was going away for two weeks, and didn't ask him to call her, what do you expect?

And regardless of what he did/didn't do, she was sure acting crazy. Was he acting crazy for not calling her every night? Probably not. Was he crazy for not checking his emails? Probably not.

OK people.... on the video he clearly states that he talked to the girl SEVERAL times about the trip before leaving, and he DID called the night before to say goodbye... He did not just disappeared, she was just not a good listener...

And, don't you think it's odd that her first (and only thought) was that he was avoiding her instead of thinking that maybe something bad happened to him??? Yeah, that shows that she really cared for him too...

He's told everyone he's gonna be gone for two weeks. And international calls are a lot of money and two weeks isn't that bad. Girlfriend's fault.

Yes, he bought her a necklace, but it also said he bought a postcard to send to his grandparents. Why couldn't he have sent his girlfriend a postcard also? I blame both sides.

that was hilarious.

And it seems true honestly, I know people who tune out that they wouldn't notice their bf going to Europe.

My favorite part "to deny it is to deny your soul" not to dramatic, is she? lol

Either way they didn't seem like the real deal, if they were she would have known his password and been able to get into his email and delete all the emails. Oh, and he would not be able to go 14 days without speaking to her just because he is on vacation.
