OH not happy about holiday

83 replies

My friend has just split up with her fiancé. She's distraught, they had a holiday booked for two weeks time

She's begging me to go, she won't even take any money off me for it - gorgeous hotel - very nice of her. She is distraught

OH of just under a year isn't happy..

It'll only be a week..he doesn't want me to go even though we have no plans for that week

He's being a dick, isn't he?

We don't live together or anything

I'm married with two children. I can honestly say my H would move mountains to help me go on this free holiday. If he doesn't have a REALLY good reason (like, you've forgotten about a wedding or something), dump him.

Your boyfriend’s sullen comments would annoy the life out of me and I’d be telling him to sort his fucking face out.

Totally agree. Have a great time @BingsAWankerSoHeIs

I'd definitely do this with a husband and kids at home! Let alone a boyfriend of a year who I didn't even live with.

Doubt it's the actual holiday he's got the strop about.

He'll be thinking: newly single friend will be off looking for anything she can for a holiday fling and trying to lead my girlfriend astray Hmm

Does he like the friend? Think she's a bad influence? Think she's going to show you how fabulous the single life is on holiday?

Technically none of this should matter, he should trust you etc etc, but I bet you wouldn't be getting the same reaction if you were having a week away with your nan.

Probably a little bit jealous that you get a lovely holiday for free while he sits in chilly England too.

Go, enjoy, tell him he's got nothing to worry about and that you'll bring him back a fridge magnet.

Tell him to fuck off , very strange behaviour and controlling.
Plus, your friend needs you

My mum still goes on holidays with the girls and she's 57... all married women. My Nan went with her life long best friend Vera, into her 80s when the dementia made it unsafe ... what an odd man he is

Sounds very odd. I am married and me and DH have separate holidays with our friends all the time!

I'm back

Boyfriend and relationship is totally fine 🙂
