Is it normal for me to be this upset over this

Your boyfriend is an idiot. Drop him now.

I'm glad my gf Is into the same movies as me bc we both went to see saw 3d. Sounds like your bf has no time for you by choice. You should drop him.

But the ditching you is not. If you had been waiting around for him and were even willing to pay for yourself and endure saw for him then he should have at the very least gone to see it with you. Ugh that makes me so mad! He is really disrespecting you as a girlfriend. If that were my bf I would seriously break up with him

You seem like a really cool girlfriend. The money thing on his side is somewhat understandable

Wowwwwwwwwww this guy blows. Dump him

What an ass.. clearly he didn't want to go with you in the first place, hence why he asked you to something that you KNEW you wouldn't want to see. Then complained about money but still went with his friends?? Yeah.. ditch his ass in a hot minutte.

You should be pissed!

That sounds shady. Either he just wants a date with the guys or he's screwing around. He should be honest.

Dump him.

Why don't you pay for a date instead of expecting your broke boyfriend to? It's just a thought.

Dump that fool! He knows what movies you dont like and continue to play with you because he knows how you feel.

Dump that fool!

You don't deserve him. I don't even know you, but if you are worrying over this, you obviously care about having a healthy relationship- so you don't deserve that crap.

You know wat I'm mad for u cuz my bf never takes me out ne where and if we do it's with his friends. I get so mad cuz it's never ne quality time for us. There's no problem with who pays wat between us but for him to just say he doesn't have enough money and then go with his friends is fuckd up. Not normal!! Or he's just selfish or fuckin with someone else sorry. Hope it works out.

First of all, kudos for being so in love with your boyfriend you'd submit yourself to the torture of Saw 3D just to be by his side. Major props Miss Thang. Those movies make me physically ill as well and haunt me for months, I only saw the first one and I still can't get half the images out of my head. Anyway, it sounded like he only offered because he was sure you'd say no, leaving him free to be like "oh well than I'm going with my friends". Since you were so compliant about the whole thing, he was then left with the fact that he would be taking you out and paying for it. Since he didn't really want to do that in the first place, he tried to find a way out of it by saying you have to pay for yourself, since you were still agreeable he then went to "I don't really want to after all..." and then ends up going with his crew like he wanted to in the beginning, leaving you completely flabbergasted. It does sound shady and dishonest but more immature as well. You could have paid for the date yourself like someone suggested but I'm not sure if that would keep him from pulling stunts like this again. It's cool to split the bill or pay for a date once in awhile but really, you were so open throughout the entire ordeal he should have been cool with paying (especially since he ended up going out with his friends anyway). I'll be real and admit I'm coming from a different mind set. I'm a little old fashioned and so are the guys I've dated. I have rarely paid for a date in any of my relationships and in fact, one of my past boyfriends is still one of my very best friends and he refuses to let me pay for anything when we are together, even though we aren't a couple. You deserve the same treatment; you just have to expect it. You shouldn't have to pay for a date to a movie you don't want to see just to spend time with your man. He should be willing to pay and if he can't afford it you should be willing to compromise. He should be able to say you two could watch a movie together on TV. or play video games, or take a walk...you get it. Anyway sorry this is so long but I don't think this is really about him being broke. I think it's just him being a punk and you need to address that --Of course in a more polite way ;) You have to ask him what he thinks makes a good relationship and tell him what you think makes a good relationship. Tell him what you want from him. You can do it respectfully...or any other way :) It's up to you. I wish you good luck...and honestly, you deserve a good man so if he's not it, let him go and find yourself someone you don't have to watch blood and suffering for!

Thisissomuchfun has a point. Although I'd always offer to pay the first few times I go out with a girl, I've no problem with going halves if we get closer or even letting her pay for it all on occasion, as long as I get to treat her sometime too.

He perhaps only had enough money to pay for himself and realised that the only way he was going to get to see the film was with his friends, rather than with you.

But I do see your side too. I think he should have perhaps sacrificed the film and offered to do something less expensive alone with you.
