Feeling a bit off with a guy and he books a holiday

So I've been seeing a guy for the past 6 months, and he's really nice and we seem to be getting along.
But I've been having a bit of doubt and not sure if I'm so keen to see him anymore. So I've been a bit distant.
He's pushing to go on holiday, and I haven't decided whether to go and told him I'm not keen as money is tight (which is true)
I saw him last week and he surprised me by booking us a surprise holiday for 2 nights. It's really annoyed me tbh as 1- he didn't ask me 2 - I told him I don't like surprises

AIBU to not go? I guess it's quite a lot of money but I feel annoyed as he didn't ask me and I don't really want to go?

I think it was very shitty and cowardly to send a text.

Read similar threads on here where the genders are reversed and the man is ripped a new one.

She told him not to book a surprise for her in future and that she doesn't like surprises.

He ignored that and even said, as he revealed his surprise something along the lines of "I know you don't like/want this, but here it is anyway...!"

He deserved to be dumped by text.

Picture it as something else.

I know you don't like spiders, but here's a ..... Tarantula.

He doesn't care what you want or like, he's going to do what he wants.

Yes a free holiday sounds lovely but not the way he has presented it so I would finish with him.

I know and I do feel bad for it
I did try to dump him in person before and that didn't go well as I started feeling so bad for him, I backpedaled massively
So for my own sanity, I had to send him a text

Don't feel bad, OP. You did the right thing. Onwards and upwards!
