    AITA not talking my girlfriend because she took her male coworker wrestling event instead

    "I figured you'd be fine watching from home."

    My girlfriend (36f) and I (39m) have been together for 10 months and we generally have a great relationship. We're quite different but we do have a shared interest which is wrestling and we have been, together, to a live event before (just a local promotion).

    A few weeks ago AEW came to our city (Cincinnati). I was super excited and mentioned multiple times how much I wanted to go. My girlfriend never really said much about it, so I assumed we'd just watch it on TV like we usually do.

    Well, turns out she did buy tickets-two of them. But instead of inviting me, she took her male coworker. I only found out because she casually mentioned it a few days later and kinda stopped halfway through cos she realised she messed up. I was confused and after a half hearted denial she told me she had gotten tickets and gone with her coworker.

    I was ped. I asked her why she didn't take me, and she just shrugged and said, "Well, he's a huge fan too, and I figured you'd be fine watching from home." When I told her it hurt that she didn't even

    consider inviting me, she said I was overreacting and that she's allowed to have friends. I asked why she'd hid it from me (she said she was going to see her dad) and her reasoning was that she knew I'd be annoyed.

    I told her I needed some space and have barely spoken to her since. She thinks I'm being childish and that it's not a big deal. But to me, it is a big deal and I feel like she deliberately excluded me from something we both love and chose another guy

    instead. I'm also worried there's something going on with this guy because why the h I would she keep it from me? I don't drink and this guy does so maybe she finds me boring, she denied that though.
  • 11
    AITA for not talking to her? I'm worried that she'll leave cos I really love her but if there is something going on then I guess it's probably for the best. I'm so angry and hurt and I just can't fathom why she'd lie.

    NTA. natteringly So she bought tickets for an event she knew you'd love; took SOME OTHER GUY to it, and then LIED ABOUT WHAT SHE WAS DOING so you wouldn't know.

    And when she's caught out, she sneers that you're being "childish" and "it's not a big deal". How is this even a question? Dump her.

    oxenvibe I always find it interesting when people lie or hide something, and then when they're confronted, say it's "not a big deal" or that you're overreacting. Like, okay, if that's your logic, it shouldn't be something worth lying over or hiding right? It obviously IS a big deal.

    EmpireofAzad If she bought two tickets, she could have bought three. She didn't want OP there.

    WhatIsYourPronoun NTA. She's not your girlfriend. She's not even your friend.

    Infinite_Bed8560 You know the way it's better to have a job still and be looking for a new one? A lot of people do this with partners. As soon as that better deal is finalised with new dude she is off. She brought him on a date ffs.

    Apprehensive-Fig3223 I call it the monkey bar phenomenon, when people won't let go of a relationship until they have another one in their grips

    yep3387 Dude... Your girl went on a date with another guy and your worried about if your the a h le. Buddy do yourself a favor and move on.
  • 24
    Full-Construction932 NTA but the silent treatment is not doing you any favours. I would just cut your losses here. She doesn't seem as invested in this relationship either
  • 25
    windywillow584 NTA, she went on a date with another guy to an event she KNEW you'd enjoy and didn't even think to ask you, if it wasn't a date why couldn't you have gone too??
  • 26
    kaleighbear125 This right here. If the other guy was just a friend also interested in the event, it would have been SO SIMPLE to buy 3 TICKETS. The fact that he was invited AND YOU WERE NOT ONLY NOT INVITED, BUT LIED TO... that's telling.

    panachi19 NTA. You're the only monogamous one in this relationship. Accept that or break up.
