She sounds pretty selfish. I'd take the trip that you've obviously already paid for and enjoy it. Whatever happens with her is meant to be...

Hi guys,

Just wanted some advice. I have had a holiday booked to Walt Disney World for two years and been talked about for three years with a couple of friends. I was really looking forward to it, then about a year ago I met my girlfriend. She is not happy about me going even though she knew about it from the start. Am I being horrible by still going or do you think I should have cancelled it.

I couldn't add her in to the holiday as my friends wouldn't like it and money would have been an issue. Just wanting advice on whether I'm being a really horrible person here.

Thanks

If she is just upset because she can't go and have fun at WDW then what you could is take videos of everything and then get small gifts from as many various areas of the parks as you can. Then you play back the video and pause it to give her the gifts. I did this once with a friend and they really liked the small gifts and seeing the vids. Its not the same as going, but it is better than just coming back and saying you had a good time and wish she had been along. Also, the gifts are a reminder that you were thinking of your girl friend throughout your trip.

Just an idea.

Wow.

Stop putting it up on a pedestal bro.

Nothing to add to this thread that hasn't been said already, other than another line from my favorite drunk movie to watch :D!

"Was that a baby?"
"No!"
"I heard a baby"
"Its a goat"

:D

Cheating at Disney World?

I'm sure it happens, but I wouldn't think it would be very likely. And if this relationship is going to last, there has to be at least a bit of trust in it.

Hey, if John Lennon put his signature, the last one of the four, on the document that disbanded the Beatles at the Poly, anything can happen at WDW.

:ROFLOL::ROFLOL: Agreed.





To the OP, the best thing I can put out there is this: If you really love someone you have to be willing to set them free. This means love is not confining or centered around yourself. It's about wanting the person you love to be happy even if that means it's away from you. Your girlfriend doesn't seem to understand this. Do I love the fact that my husband likes to play golf or go fishing? No. Do I particularly enjoy the weekends he spends off having fun with his family/friends? Not particularly. But I love him with all my heart and I want him to enjoy himself. I encourage him and do what I can to make those things possible for him. I don't think every waking moment has to be about me. For me it's about him. I want him to enjoy his hobbies. I want him to cultivate strong, positive relationships with his family and friendships with his friends. And ya know what? My husband does the same thing for me. He keeps the kids, arranges his schedule, and makes it possible for me to go visit my doll collector friends or attend different events. It's that simple. If you love someone, set them free. It's liberating, really.

This is stupid :brick: I really hate this :brick: Welcome to the unjust world of double standards, my friend. I may be the first one to say it on here but I'm definitely not the first to think it: If this was the other way around and it was HER going away and you being "mad" she would rip into you until you are feeling like the most guilty man in the world. She would be telling you *cough cough* she would be screaming to you about how this was all planned ahead of time blah blah and why can't you just be happy for her and wish her a fantastic time with her girls you jealous pig!

Don't you dare consider feeling horrible about this at all. She is TRYING to get in your head so you have a miserable time without her. Seems like she doesn't want you to enjoy yourself unless she's with you. RED FLAG!

This is what you have to do...take loads of pictures of you having an absolute blast and show them to her when you get back and take special note of her reaction. It can tell you a lot. And pay mind to how much she tries to contact you while you're away.

Go on the trip! Dump the girl! Then take the money you were putting back for a ring and book a bounceback offer while your there!

Don't cancel your trip unless you want to be controlled the rest of your life. This is not normal behaviour for two people who are in love. When you love someone you want them to be happy. Case in point - We scheduled a week at WDW last year the week of Thanksgiving. My husband ended up losing his job in June. Luckily was offered another one a month before the trip. The job was offered but the company stated they could not accomodate the unpaid vacation time. We all offered to stay home and reschedule for another time. My husband knew how much we loved Disney and insisted we go. We went and had a GREAT time. We suprised him by coming home the evening of Thanksgiving and bringing him a Disney Turkey dinner. When you love someone you want them to be happy. You are thinking about cancelling because YOU want her to be happy... do you see the same from her???

42 days to go until we start the next trip!!
