She Paid $15k To Take Her Boyfriend On Vacation But He Just Told Her He Met A Younger Woman So She’s Asking The Internet If She Should Still Go
A 41-year-old woman dropped a whopping $15,000 to take her 51-year-old boyfriend on vacation along with their children from previous relationships.
She has a 6-year-old son and her boyfriend has a 13-year-old son and a 15-year-old son. All the children will be coming on this vacation that she’s footing the bill for.
Here’s the kicker though; her boyfriend just told her he met a younger woman, and she’s asking the internet if she should even still go on this trip.
“I am fairly newly divorced from my ex and pretty quickly started dating a new guy (widower) I met online,” she started out by explaining.
“Things moved probably way too fast and we were talking about being engaged, getting to know each other’s kids, and on and on.”
“With all that I guess I overlooked that we’d never agreed to be exclusive with each other.”
Despite this oversight, they still decided to take an expensive vacation with their kids to two different places in Mexico.
One of her good friends is a travel agent, so she booked the trip through this friend and there is no insurance on the trip.
Her boyfriend is already in Mexico with his teen sons, but she hasn’t left yet because her 6-year-old son was spending time with her ex-husband.

She was supposed to leave for Mexico when her son returned from her ex’s house, but now she’s doubting if she should get on the plane with him.
She pointed out that absolutely everything involving this vacation has been paid for in advance and there’s no going back from that.
Her flight is leaving in under 24 hours, and her boyfriend obviously already checked into their 3 rooms.
Before her boyfriend flew to Mexico to start their vacation, he dropped quite a bomb on her.
“Right before he left on Friday he felt like he just “had” to tell me that he’s met another girl and wants to continue seeing her when he gets back,” she wrote.
Oh, and this other woman is 25-years-old.
“I asked him about our engagement talk and he said he was totally serious about that.”
“But he felt like he owed it to his passed away wife and his former self to explore as much of what’s out there as he can before settling down. I was shocked.”
What a wild thing to do to someone that just paid for you to go on a lavish vacation.
She wondered if she should just suck it up, stick a smile on her face and go, or if she should just not get on the plane and lose out on the $15,000 she paid for all this.
Here’s what the internet had to say.
“15k is a lot of money. Is your son excited? If it were me I’d make the trip about my kid at this point honestly.”
“Exactly, just go and have your own trip with your son. Try to stay away from him and his kids and just enjoy your time with your kid, he’ll appreciate it!”
“If the guy gets annoyed just be honest and say “I’m not comfortable with continuing this relationship, let’s just keep it as friends”. Once you get home, just go no contact, you don’t deserve to be a place holder while he finds out if the other girl is better for him than you, or while he has his fun before “settling down” with you.”
“This just sucks. I would bet a girl half his age is going to eventually decide that grandpa is not who she wants. But that could take a while, and if you’re already emotionally out of this relationship, then just have fun with your son and make it friendly.”
“Then when you get home, take care of yourself. You still have lots of good years ahead of you, so take your time and find the right guy.”
“That’s a deal-breaker for me. He’s your bf and talking to another woman cuz he wants to “explore”. Sounds like he’ll just end up cheating later on too.”
“I’d still go on the vacation but I would be going single if I were you.”
“Go and enjoy the trip, but make it about you and your son. You deserve better. Rearrange the rooms so it’s you and your son in one.”
“And talk to him about at least paying half and half. If not, then consider it a learned lesson and enjoy Mexico.”
