A man is upset with his girlfriend after she invited her friends on a romantic trip he had planned for their five year anniversary where he was going to propose at the end. He had been planning the getaway, which included skiing and snowboarding, for months so was far from impressed when she dropped the ball on him saying that she had asked two of her friends to tag along for it.
Despite telling her that he was upset as he was hoping to spend some time one on one with his girlfriend, she insisted that they come along for the ride.

In the post, the frustrated man wrote: "I planned the trip for several months (of course I shared my plans with her), and decided on skiing/snowboarding/other winter activities.
"The activities seemed perfect, and I was looking forward to this for months because I wanted to propose to her at the end of the trip."
He added that five days before the trip she said he had invited two of her friends to tag along and he was not happy.
"I figured we could make some changes to our plans, and I would still be able to propose to her privately."
However, when it came to the trip he was disappointed that she spent most of the time with her friends and there was no way he could propose privately.
He said: "After three days of being in second place, I decided to leave the trip and head home. I told her why I was leaving, and she was upset. She told her friends about my decision, and I was ganged up on. They said we were all having a great time.
"She thinks I'm being a jerk for making her pick between her friends and me (even though her friends weren't invited in the first place). I never had personal issues with her friends prior to this trip.
"I'm at home now and thinking about everything. I have a day to myself before she comes home, so at least I get to relax a bit. She and her friends think I'm overreacting and think I ruined the trip."
In response, many sided with him and said that she should not have invited her friends while knowing it was a romantic trip.
One person wrote: "Even if it wasn’t a proposal trip, it was so disrespectful of her to basically pull the rug out from under him and get her friends to gang up."
While another stated: "I would sit her down and go through the plans you had including the proposal."
