Yes, because we all know that youhave to do whatever SHE wants to make the relationship last...

:roll:
 
Just go and leave her behind. If she can't deal with it just kick her to the curb. If you plan on anything long term with this girl then you have to get this crap straight now. Giving in sets a dangerous precedent that will haunt you down the road.

no, i just cant stand the fact that she assumes everytime i get invited to a party or any social event, she assumes she is always invited. Because of that, it makes it even harder to say, "oh btw, im just gonna go alone" no matter how unharsh and innocent i try to put it. She still gets upset...

And why wouldn't she? Unless it is "Girls Night Out" or some similar type of event that no rational man would want to go to, there is a general assumption that if my girl is invited to an event, I'm invited too, and she would want to bring me along, and I'd be pretty irritated if she didn't want me to come with her.

Seems like this relationship is in bad shape. You appear to have some kind of weird issue with being seen in public with your girl, and your girl seems clingy and not very trusting.
 
You must choose your battles. Is the reward great enough here that it is worth the cost? I'd probably just let her come...maybe she really does just like vegas.
 
you obviously arent serious about this girl

with my g/f i want her with me where ever i go. when shes with me she makes any situation that much more fun. I wouldnt want her to go to vegas without me, and she wouldnt want me to go without her. And we both wouldnt want to go without each other.

I mean my g/f is going on a cruise with her two best friends in the winter, and she asked me to come. But i obviously said no b/c whats the point, its a girls vacation. But she still hasnt booked it yet, b/c she really wants me to come. To me these simple things show how much we love each other.

To me, if you dont want her around you plan on taking advantage of something if the situation arrises. And dont use that BS line "What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas." Theres benefits to being single, and benefits to being in a relationship. You need to decide which benefits you feel suit you better.
 
Tell her you don't want her to go. It's really easy. This is something you need to do with your friends. Anyone that says otherwise on here is a b1tch. Sorry, that's just a fact.

If you can't tell her this honestly, maybe you have issues. It would be one thing if she thought you were going to cheat on her while you're there (does she?), but if that's not the case, then fuhgeddaboutit.

You know, you can have a committed loving relationship that doesn't involve being attached at the hip 24 hours a day...

agreed, but a trip to vegas seems to be something you'd do as a couple...
 
we're not attached at the hip 24/7

but i know i wouldnt have the best time i could if she wasnt there. just the way we are.

guess its b/c we were friends for a year before we started dating seriously. the last 10 months have been amazing.


Life's great when you have someone to share it with, no?

Except there are other women going on the trip, so it's not really a "guys night out" issue.

hence my "in this case"

Vegas IS the ultimate guys night out - what goes on in Vegas STAYS in Vegas.... 😛

If this guy thinks that it will be more fun with her there, I don't see what his problem is...
 
I'm surprised if half the people in here have solid relationships based on their response. It's obvious to me that you are the one with the issue, not her. You don't mention why you don't want her to go. Do you need some time off, do you not want her around, or what? If you need time apart then say so, but somehow I doubt that's it.

I think either you don't like her or you want to do some things you know she wouldn't like and probably which you shouldn't do. Even if you do want to do some things without her, you can just say, I'm going to go hang out with the guys for a while, let's do [something nice/romantic] at [some time later that day].

I equate Vegas to going to a nightclub but for straight 4-5 days... I can see why his g/f wouldn't want him to go. You go there under a premise (dance/gamble) but that's not the real draw...

But the question we should ask to OP is if other guys/girls are coming with their SO's...
 
Leave her or dump her.

If not you are setting a precedence in which she will owns your testicles from here on out.
 
I know exactly how you feel. My gf wants to go everywhere with me. Even if I'm watchin TV down stairs she wants to join me. sigh*...FREEEEDDOOMMMM!!!

half of the people here haven't had sex or even talked to a girl before....
That's why you get answers like :
Leave her or dump her.

Something about people with no social skills giving advice on relationships :roll:



There's no reason why you should not want her to go, unless you have alterior motives that would put you into the douche/asshole/dick category (sounded like it from the o/p). It's not like it's a guys night out or something, so what exactly are you trying to pull?

And also what the hell is that comment about your girlfriend thinking she's invited to every party you go to. Why the hell would she not be, she's your girlfriend 😕 ... unless is some special thing (strip club, guys night out etc). If my woman try to pull sh!t like that ("well you cant come to my friends party im going to tonight... youre not invited blah blah"), i'd be pissed
