BF going to the same restaurant as me

[DLDITN]

I’ve booked a table in a restaurant for a catch up with my mum tonight.

My BF is going out with his friends and has told me that he’s booked a table at the same restaurant.

Am I overreacting to think this is a bit odd. I don’t want to be a part of his man’s night out and especially not when I’m trying to have a quiet conversation with my mother.

God these awful comments like everyone has a phd in relationship science. Maybe it’s a Nando’s & it’s just a local place people go. Maybe the OP is being a tad paranoid maybe the bf is being weird, we don’t know enough to decide. However the coincidence of this is simple, you go somewhere else with mum, if the bf gets weird then you need a serious chat!

@HelenEas63 or, you read the bloody thread and stop talking nonsense. It’s not possible for OP to go somewhere else due to her mother’s mobility. The restaurant in question is not one that logistically makes sense for the boyfriend’s mates to get to. The boyfriend is gaslighting OP saying that SHE is the one being strange.

Well said HelenEas63. Derbee is being very naive, what a lovely world she lives in, where is it out of interest!

No, I'm with Derbee on this. You sure you've read the thread?

Sausagis As I’m in my late 60’s I’ve had my fair share of strange behaviour in guys and it struck a cord of concern.

Well clearly some poster's haven't read the full thread. The meal was on Sunday. The BF then lied to the OP saying he'd cancelled because she was behaving oddly, when in fact it was his mates who cancelled.

That's massive red flag behaviour, very controlling and possessive. I'd seriously considering ending things, it's creepy and weird

If he's doing it to keep an eye on you because he thinks you have a "secret boyfriend" then surely he wouldn't tell you he was going to be there?

That's not the most logical way to catch a cheat?

daiawndiolch They mix lies with the truth, guys like that, it’s to mess your mind and it works most of the time!

🚩 Very possessive behaviour. Best off getting rid of him
