He’s Not Happy That His Girlfriend Is Going To A Music Festival For 5 Days With A Guy She Met Recently
Have you ever felt a bit concerned after your partner started hanging around someone you don’t know a lot more?
One man is hurt after his girlfriend chose to go on a five-day vacation to a music festival with a photographer she works with whom he does not know.
He’s 27, and his 29-year-old girlfriend is an amateur model. She’s been in a few magazines and working closely with a few photographers for a while now.
“For the last few months, she’s been working a lot with a male photographer whom I have never met,” he explained.
“The photographer has invited my girlfriend to join him and some of his friends, who neither of us have ever met, at a festival for five days [and] 4 four nights. He’s driving her there and back and has given her a full five-day VIP ticket, including meet and greets with some of the bands.”
As great as this offer may sound, he was a bit skeptical of how generous it was. He contacted a few friends of his and his girlfriend’s in the industry to get their opinion, and they agreed that the photographer’s behavior was odd. Then, he began questioning this photographer’s intentions.
The photographer has never expressed any interest in meeting him and didn’t invite him to any of the festival’s events.
Additionally, he worries about his girlfriend, who’s been vulnerable and going through a hard time since her grandfather recently passed away.
“She’s going out drinking with her friends, going too hard, and then taking it out on me when she gets home,” he said.

“Another concern I have is her going too hard at this festival [while] I’m not there to pick up the pieces.”
He talked to his girlfriend about how uncomfortable he was with her being at the music festival with people they didn’t know very well for so long. His girlfriend said she wouldn’t stay for the full five days as a compromise and that she’d start getting better about taking his feelings into accountability.
But then, right before she was supposed to leave, she sprung on him that she was going to the festival for the full five days and didn’t offer a different compromise.
“I feel broken by her choice,” he added.
“I understand that this is something she would enjoy, but I’ve made it clear how much this hurts me, and her choice seems to suggest that her enjoyment is worth the damage to our relationship and the pain I feel.”
This is not the first time his girlfriend has made a reckless choice, but he feels this choice has certainly caused the most strain in their relationship.
How should he approach this situation with his girlfriend?
