A 35-year-old woman has spent the last 2 years seeing a 42-year-old man, and everything has been a roller coaster between the two of them.

Despite the issues that she has had with him, she continued to love him very much, and she really believed there was nothing that they couldn’t overcome together.

She had high hopes, but they were all recently shattered when they took a cruise to the Caribbean 2 months ago.

This guy wound up winning a company trip that was an all-expenses-paid cruise to Punta Cana, and she was ecstatic that he invited her to go with him.

She always wanted to go to the Caribbean and the guy that she was seeing said that he still had to pay for the fees and taxes for the cruise since it was a prize.

He asked her to pay for half of those expenses, and she thought it was fair back then.

What was supposed to be her trip of a lifetime turned into a complete and utter nightmare, and in the days before they even left she firmly believed this guy was seeing another woman in addition to seeing her.

She had a feeling this other woman was his 23-year-old bartender friend, and she knows he met her at a bar he goes to a lot.

“Two days before our trip, they walked into a bar I was at… and they were all over each other,” she explained.

“When I asked him why this was happening, the two of them immediately became defensive, and I was made to look like I was the crazy one.”

“He deferred all further conversations about this happening and simply stated he thought she liked him, but she has a boyfriend.”

He tried to say that he really believed his younger friend was all over him that night in an effort to spur on her jealousy.

What upset her was that not once did this guy try to make her feel better about the situation or alleviate her worst fears.

So, on to the cruise. Day one was incredible, but then things spiraled out of control right after that.

Day two her date ended up furious with her when she stopped him from hitting on some girl he met at the resort they were staying at.

“He screamed in my face and became very vindictive and hurtful with his words,” she said. “We tried to smooth that over a few hours later, but after a night of drinking my insecurities about him and this girl surfaced.”

“I had learned that when we returned from this trip, he was immediately departing on a second trip to Fort Lauderdale with this girl.”

“I knew about the trip, but he had withheld that she was going with him. It hurt me to know that he was lying, and I unleashed all of the information I had that led me to suspect they were sleeping together.”

After she confronted him with the proof she had, he became aggressive and antagonistic, while insisting he wasn’t cheating on her.

Day three? He refused to speak to her at all. Then, the last evening of their vacation came, and there was a cocktail party with this guy’s company.

In the middle of the party, he went back to their hotel to catch up on Netflix, leaving her there all by herself.

When she did return to their room, she was shocked to see he was on a video call with this “friend” of his that she figured he was cheating with.

As he kept speaking to his friend, he was super nasty to her, and when he finally did hang up, she got into another bad fight with him and he let her know that he felt hate for her.

On the final day of their trip, he didn’t say anything to her, and when they got back home, he left for his second trip with his friend.

Though, right before he went on trip number two, he phoned her up to say sorry, though clearly, he didn’t mean a word of it.

On this call, he did let her know that he did hook up with a girl, but it wasn’t his friend. She took that chance to fill him in on the fact that she was still uncomfortable about his friend situation, but he wasn’t listening.

Following that call, she went days without hearing from him, but then he sent her a text saying he still expected her to foot the bill for half of their cruise.

“After lying, completely breaking my heart, and ruining a once-in-a-lifetime experience for me, he still expects me to pay taxes and fees for a trip he invited me on,” she continued.

Do you think she should pay him, or ghost him for good? You can read the original post on Reddit here.
