Her Friend Wants To Bring Her Family On Their Girl’s Trip To Trinidad, So She Told Her She Can’t Come
This 25-year-old woman and her friends all work on different schedules. But they really love hanging out and keep trying to make plans that fit with each other’s schedule.
More recently, she and her friends also just decided to take the plunge and plan a girl’s trip. After all, they felt like they all really needed a good break.
So, she and her friend group hopped on a Zoom call to narrow down which country they wanted to visit.
“We didn’t want to go to a cold country because where we live, it is already cold,” she said.
That’s why they wound up settling on going to Trinidad for a whole week. And they were all so excited that the very next day, she and her friends went shopping for both bathing suits and other personal supplies.
Then, following the shopping trip, everyone went online to try and purchase their plane tickets. However, one of her friends, who is 24, has not yet paid for a flight.
According to her, this is because her friend wanted to bring their family along– which includes their boyfriend and kids. But she and her other friends just weren’t on board with that.
“The girls and I didn’t like that idea because it is a girl’s trip, so no boys and kids should be coming,” she reasoned.
“But my friend said they have to come.”

She didn’t understand that, either, and told her friend no. She also claimed that the father of her friend’s kids could just watch the children. That way, her friend could actually get a break on vacation.
Well, that just made her friend become “all fussy,” and now, they’re in a stalemate.
“If the kids did come, we wouldn’t be able to have fun, and her kids are 1 and 2, so it wouldn’t be pretty when they’re on the plane and start to cry,” she explained.
The trip is coming up fast, too, with her and the rest of her group set to leave in just four days.
Nonetheless, her one friend still wants their boyfriend and kids to tag along. So, she was forced to put her foot down and claim that her friend wasn’t allowed to go if their family would be going, too.
And now, ever since she did that, she can’t help but wonder if refusing to let her friend go on the girl’s trip if their family also tags along was the wrong thing to do or not.
Can you understand why she doesn’t want any guys or kids on the girl’s trip? Do you agree that her friend could just have their boyfriend stay behind with the children? Why do you think her friend was so opposed to that? How would you have handled this situation?
