A holidaymaker has been left furious with their partner after he invited a pal on their trip away.
At the beginning of March the would-be loved-up couple are due to France for a "romantic getaway".
"His own words not mine, just to spend some quality time together because we’ve both been busy with work," the man's partner wrote on Reddit.
"I was excited about the trip and to spend some quality time with my boyfriend but then he drops this bombshell on me."
It turned out that they wouldn't be alone on the holiday.
"He invited one of his friends because apparently he’s always wanted to see France, so my boyfriend thought he would be kind and asked his friend to come along," the despairing other-half explained.
When confronted, the boyfriend said that his friend had already paid for a flight but that it was fine, as the pal could just sleep on their sofa.
"He did all of this without telling me a thing," his long suffering beau continued.
"I told my boyfriend that quite frankly, I don’t want his friend to come and it was supposed to be a romantic getaway, but he said that his friend won't bother us and he’ll do his own thing.
"I don’t know, I just don’t feel comfortable with it.
"We argued for a bit more with him saying that he paid for most of the trip so he feel’s entitled to be able to bring his friend along. In the end I just got so fed up. I may be a bit dramatic but I felt betrayed so I told him I wouldn’t be coming if his friend was.
"He said I was being ridiculous and I should go since its been paid for anyway and I was being overly dramatic but this is how I feel, he said I was being manipulative and cruel for making him choose between me and his friend."
The crushed romantic turned to the internet to seek advice and to ask whether they were over-reacting.
The vast majority of people who read their account were strongly on the anti-boyfriend end of things.
"He can enjoy a romantic getaway with his friend— it sounds like that’s what he wants anyways," one person fumed.
"He doesn’t respect you. Keep that in mind going forward."
Another added: "He unilaterally changed the trip. You are entitled to decide you no longer wish to go.
"And I really hope he isn’t expecting you to be comfortable sharing a bed with him with someone else five feet away."
A third wrote: " How is it a romantic getaway if there is someone else snoring in the next bed/sofa...????"
