Taken his friend instead of me wtf

[Karigan198]

Totally prepared to be told I’m being unreasonable if it’s me! Also fully recognise it’s a first world problem lol.

My partner and I have been together just under 4 years. We both love a certain film series.

Yesterday he says to me ‘when. ** comes out in 2019 I have to go watch it with (his friend)’

They were good friends, used to live as housemates and saw all the others in the series together but he’s seen this guy twice in the last nearly 4 years!!

This is a film that he knows I love and intend to watch when it comes out.

He saw my face and changed it to ‘I’ll watch it twice, once with BF and then with you’

Now I don’t mind going with BF. Make it a group thing maybe, but to put a guy that he hasn’t even spoken to much for years ahead of me is pissing me off. Why can’t he watch it with me then go see it with BF for instance?

I’m probably being oversensitive as a few things are making me feel a bit useless at the moment (not him- medical)

Lol can’t be an overreaction if I didn’t react other than to look at him.

Posting a thread on Mumsnet about it is also a reaction.

Presumably if your friend had a real problem she wouldn't post nonsense in AIBU

What film series is it? Please don't let it be Avengers

The replies weren't even that bitchy! Weird thread overall tbh

I bet it's Spiderman..

I bet it's Spiderman

a) There are less than 4 in its current iteration
b) Nobody would offer to watch a spiderman film twice

Wow. You don't get the answer you want, so people on here are bitches.

You're being massively controlling. Hope your partner realises soon and runs for the hill.

OP if your friend wants to ask a genuine question on MumsNet then suggest that she asks in another board - NOT AIBU.

And yes I'd be a bit peeved if DH wanted to see a film in a series I also was into with someone else and not me. But I probably would have replied something like: "Well I'll just have to go with X (random friend of mine), because I'm not missing the opening."

Wow indeed,

Op, am I being unreasonable, totally prepared to be told I am, I'm probably being oversensitive
Mumsnet, yes you're being unreasonable
Op, well you're a bunch of bitches and I've told my mate never to use this site because of it

Eh ok then, off you pop.

Was this a made up AIBU then?

So she could prove to her friend how mumsnet is full of "Bitches".

It was a pathetic AIBU.

However as with anything you will always get the measured responses on either side of the argument, with the more "extreme" responses mixed in. Unless the OP is acting like a spoiled child or a controlling bell end.

Total non problem.

👋🏽 bye OP!

It's just a movie with a mate. Go with a friend or go after them if you really want.

Why have you concealed the name of the film

Probably because it'll be way too outing if they do & the thread will need removed for privacy reasons

Right.

Like imagine someone has just had a conversation with his OH about the 4th film in their favourite series coming out soon, and his plan to see it with an old friend who he used to live with but has rarely seen in the last few years, but wants to see it with him anyway because they saw the first 3 together, and his OH seemed upset because she loves this series too, so he offered to watch it again with her afterwards and she still seemed kind of upset... and then he reads this thread...

But nah, he can't be sure it's about him, because the name of the film series isn't mentioned!

@LydiaLunch7

@LydiaLunch7 You do realise my.comment was being sarcastic & tongue in cheek??? 🤔

Yes. I was agreeing with (and supplementing) your comment, rather than arguing with it. I know that's unusual on mumsnet but it does occasionally happen.

@Redglitter I think she was agreeing with you

Oops. XPost

😂😂😂 that's true

Sorry thought you'd taken me literally 😳

Yabu. I saw every one if the LOTR and Hobbit trilogies with the same friend. At first we were house mates and by the last we weren't even living in the same country and I was married but it was a thing we did. I would have happily gone a second time with my dh but it was our long standing tradition.

Is it Police Academy 256?

Aibu?

Yes you are.

Bitches.

So funny!

Hmm, I have some sympathy with his view but also with yours.

I went to see the LOTR films with one particular friend - but by the time the 3rd one came out, I was also with now-DH, so he came too. I wasn't so very precious that I felt the need to exclude him and see it with ONLY the friend.

I don't think the 2 year thing matters - I don't see some friends for longer than that but we still pick up where we left off as soon as we do catch up again - but unless they want to have a particularly blokey reaction to aspects of the film, where you would be an inappropriate audience, I think your DP is being a bit precious over it and he should let you go too.
