This Man Plans To Go Golfing Instead Of Attending His Girlfriend’s Sister’s Wedding
A twenty-six-year-old man recently wondered if he would be a jerk for going golfing instead of attending his girlfriend’s sister’s wedding. And, upon first read, most people would probably not hesitate to say “yes.”
But, the man explained how his golfing plans are not just your average Sunday afternoon at the course.
Instead, he and his buddies have been planning an entire golfing trip for over a year.
They created a dedicated group chat, booked and paid for accommodations, took their paid time off, and even created teams and wagers.
“It’s a big deal for us and something I have really been looking forward to,” the man said.
However, he has been dating his girlfriend for three years now, and, out of the blue, the girlfriend’s sister decided to plan a wedding. The sister only gave her family a mere six months’ notice.
And as soon as the man found out the wedding’s date, he immediately declared he would not be attending.
His girlfriend believed he would eventually give in and accompany her to the ceremony. But, the man RSVP’d “no” and intended to hold his position.
“Then, I started getting calls from her sister and parents asking why I would not be coming,” the man recalled.

He explained the golfing trip– including how it is already paid for and holds significant personal importance. But, the girlfriend’s family now believes the man has it out for the groom.
“The groom and I did have an altercation years ago at a bar. But, it was nothing that serious and nothing that would prevent me from attending,” the man reasoned.
Moreover, it is the sister’s second wedding. The man already attended her first one three years ago and feels like his attendance is really not necessary.
Nonetheless, the man’s girlfriend really wants him there for moral support.
“She is the maid of honor and said her sister is ‘difficult.’ I said she has her entire family there if her sister turns into a bridezilla. Plus, what use am I if that happens?” the man reasoned.
In turn, he still fully intends to go golfing with his friends. But, he is also wondering if the decision is selfish and makes him a jerk.
Do you believe the man should be able to go on his golding trip guilt-free? If you were his girlfriend, would you be angry?
