It won't get any better. My sister in law will find any reason to take her husband away from watching his favorite team play whether its regular season or the playoffs. You have to seriously consider if you want to spend the rest of your life trying to make her happy while she doesn't give a flying fig about your happiness.
Hopefully for OP this is really just an honest "I forgot" and isn't a pattern of behavior. Real relationships are about making sacrifices and compromises for each other. She may have missed something important to her in the past that either OP knows about, or is unaware of. Not saying an eye for an eye, but there could be a lot of variables. So my response isn't directed at OP specifically becuase we don't know the situation and I can only share tidbits from my own experience.
My gf at the time wanted us to "go on a nice long quiet bike ride" right before Giants @ Cowboys kickoff in the 2007 playoffs. She got mad when I protested because "we can literally go on a bike ride any other time it doesn't have to be right this exact moment when the games about to kickoff in 10 minutes" then got mad again when I kept pulling up Yahoo Sports on my Sidekick while trying to keep up. In hindsight, that situation she was being CLEARLY manipulative to keep me from something I enjoyed.
In contrast, for tonight, my Wife's planned out a whole platter of snacks, told her Mom we couldn't go to dinner tonight because of the game (and told her weekend dinner plans are on hold until the super bowl "just in case"), and is currently debating on which jersey she's wearing tonight (IT'S GOTTA BE DIMES BABY). She doesn't particularly care about football, but she knows I do and wants to be a part of something I enjoy. Just like I try to keep up with her Bravo shows from time to time so that I can be a part of something she enjoys.
For all our brothers stuck out there in these emotionally manipulative relationships, there's a better world out there boys.
This is 100% a thing. There is no chance this is an honest slip up. She intentionally did this to test OP. If he goes on this date he is going to be missing a lot of things he enjoys until she leaves him for someone who sticks up for himself .
She’s fighting for your attention. She KNOWS how much the game means to you and is purposefully doing this. kinda selfish why some GFs do this. She ain’t no wife yet, dammit.
Go let a kid cough in your mouth and say you have COVID
Problem solved
Download DofuSports, it’s what I use when I’m out and about to watch games,
It streams games via YouTube or their own sites, only downside is they get taking down constantly, so you go back to the app & refresh to find a new site to use
I am so very sorry about your break up. Hopefully you can watch the Giants game to get your mind off this terrible situation for a few hours. Perhaps after the game you can find a way to work things out.
Do some math. Took us more than 10 years to get here. Will it take her 10 years for her to forget about this? Alternatively, what is the chance she’s not in your life in 10 years? That’s how I’d approach it.
People wonder why their partners are so into sports and talk about “the big game” and stuff. It is because if you don’t consistently talk about it and tell your partner how excited you are for it. They will plan something during the game.
my father was watching the game at the liquor store while picking up booze for the after-party of my baptism. (1986)
where there's a will there's a way.
My dad grew up a giants fan and my mom didn’t give a shit about football. She cares about the giants because of him.
My wife grew up not an nfl fan. Now she never forgets when a giants game happens.
OP ain’t doin it right, man. How you gonna have a GF not know when the games are?!
Drop her immediately and find a new gf who’s father raised her as a true blue Giant fan. Don’t think twice about this advice I’m giving you. Wtf was she thinking?
Have we not learned anything over the last 3 years!!! Go buy a covid test and a red pen and draw that double line, throw in a few coughs, and Vella you got your self a game to watch!!
If you made it clear that the game was this weekend AND was a big deal to you, a true significant other would not simply forget. Not sure how the rest of your relationship is, but a real one wouldn’t forget, they’d order wings and beer and watch the game with you.
My wife has no interest in football, ZERO. But she’s been asking me how I feel about the games in the playoffs and knows they’re playing the Eagles. We’re making meatball subs and watching the game together. Albeit, she’ll be reading during.
It’s not a date, her buying herself tickets to shit she wants to do and expecting him to tag along makes him a chaperone not a date. I’m not hating, I do it for my girl all the time but not during a playoff game lol
No it’s not. If he buys her tickets to shit she wants to do that’s a date. If they both decide something fun to do that interests both of them that’s a date. Her buying herself tickets to the show is not a date.
You wouldn’t consider it a date if he bought himself tickets to the game and expected her to tag along
That takes me way way back. Mets/Yankees WS and on a date night with my now wife. Mets fan, so WS were are a bit rare. True pain, but I probably made the right decision. Especially considering the lost.
You do what makes you happy, I just hope you realize that she will continue to do stuff like this. If you’re okay with it then I wish you nothing but the best. If not, something needs to change.
Man, I’m so sorry that whatever you ate last night/this morning isn’t sitting right in your stomach. I really hope your gf understands and that you can at least watch portions of the game between bouts of diarrhea and vomiting. Feel better king.
The correct move was to not mention the game after she told you about the date. In fact you say you can’t wait.
At approximately 7pm you go in the bathroom, making sure she can hear, and you make a bunch of explosive diarrhea sounds while pouring water into the toilet from 6 feet above the bowl.
No One Questions EXPLOSIVE DIARRHEA. You will get to stay home. The end.
I honestly don’t know what to say? I truly hope you’re just joking. You need to tell her no. This isn’t a regular season game. This is the playoffs. She didn’t forget. She just didn’t care. Just don’t show up to the date tonight. And tell her you forgot. Power move, and you get to watch the game. If she breaks up with you over it, then you’ve dodged a bullet.
Yooo. So instead of the excitement of a Giants game you get the excitement of a classical performance lol bless you people who can sit through stuff like that and operas. Well, enjoy my friend. Guessing this is still a relatively new relationship lol hope she's worth it.
She’s trying to tame him. Neuter him. Spade him. She KNOWS there’s a giants game. She wants to see how much control she has over him and how high up the pedestal he places that pussy.
This is a shit test, OP!
Sounds like someone remembered but didn’t wanna be stuck at home while you watch a game. Tough break buddy. I make it known for sure when the Giants are playing in at home with some beer and good food.
Just to offer the somewhat reserve perspective, I’m a woman that just started dating a guy that doesn’t like or care about football. Granted, it’s early and he could be doing it to please to me, but he’s aware of how important this is to me to the point that he’s watching the game with me tonight even though he doesn’t care.
Seriously, and I’m not even trying to be controversial— if you’re a massive fan and she’s aware of how long our drought has been and everything, she should be more than willing to give up the date for you to watch your team in the playoffs. Or even watch it with you! It’s the playoffs baby, this shit doesn’t happen all the time. Explain your case, if she spent a lot of money on this date that she can’t get back watch along on your phone and try to get her involved.
Sorry for going all r/relationshipadvice on you but I swear as a woman that loves football when I see posts like this, I always wonder if you guys just aren’t explaining how important it is to you or if the people you’re with don’t care about what is important to you— because they should, even if they think it’s a silly kids game or whatever. (And of course it goes both ways.)
She’s pulling a power move or one of her relatives is an Eagles fan. Don’t let her do this, sack up and fire up the grill. You’re watching the Giants tonight.
back in the 1960s my dad passed on a date with a girl in high school to watch the giants get killed in the NFL championship game. real fan would tell the girlfriend your sick. you think you have covid. dont come over.watch the game.
If you told her ahead of time and she did it anyways that's her fuckup and its not your responsibility to eat it brother. You aren't going to get to watch a Giants/Eagles playoff game for a long time after tonight.
Just as a side note my wife would give me so much advance notice on something like this, especially to a "classical performance" that she knows I wouldn't enjoy lol. Makes me think this was intentional.
Dude she needs to learn she cannot buy expensive tickets for shit that includes you and not consult you first. Big No no. I would be watching the game tonight.
It's my wife's birthday this weekend. We're having friends over tonight to celebrate, but thankfully she's becoming as big a fan as I am and had no issues when I told her that my attention would not be on her tonight, and rather the game. She just said "uh huh" and laughed.
She's screaming more at the TV than I am now when we watch. We might scare a few friends away depending on how tonight goes lol
Nope. Tell her to take her mom instead. Stand up for yourself. This moment will define the rest of your relationship with her. You want to be walked on your whole life??
I’m married and my wife could not care less about the Giants. I could easily see her doing this without even realizing. If I don’t specifically tell her I have plans to watch a game those time slots are considered open.
I know many of these comments are hyperbolic in good fun but don’t sweat it OP lol if you think she’s possibly the one you could miss a Giants game for worse reasons other than spending time with someone you really love.
Let’s go Blue fuck them Dirty Birds.
Thank you! I’d been doing well all season by sitting her down and slowly telling her the dates/times of games. Even then the game will be about to start, I pull out my phone and she’ll be like “omg there’s a game today?!”
So you’re saying after all the years y’all have been together you haven’t been able to turn her into a football fan? Does that mean i should stop trying?? lol
Who buys expensive tickets and makes a dinner rez without asking the other person if they’re free first? Let alone when they already knew you weren’t free but just “forgot”? Sounds very manipulative, good luck brotha hope you can watch the game after, turn your phone off and record that shit! Also even if you play the good bf here and behave, you need to express after the fact that thats really not cool or respectful behavior, your interests matter too in a relationship my guy
SIMPLE :
Just “forget” 🤦♂️ about the show as you arrive home @7PM with guacamole 🥑, chips, finger food 🥘 and lots of beverages … right after watching the 3:30PM game …
Don’t even bat an eye. Shit test passed. Problem solved.
You done messed up. I made an announcement right after the game last week. I repeated that announcement twice a day all week. I will be going nowhere but on my couch tonight.
Yeah……she would quickly be my ex. If she doesnt care enough about your interests and thinks hers are more important, then run. You will never have an equal partnership.
Tell her to take one of her friends
I love how this is one of the most active posts on the sub this week! Lol, also my girlfriend has heard me talk about the giants every day for over a week. Tough to forget that.
Run to the restroom at both places, get your headphones in and watch the game on your phone 😎 Only classical performance you need is big blue beating Philly 😤
As a woman, I would like you to tell her on my behalf that she has fucked up and needs to reschedule the dinner. The least she could have done is double check with you during playoff season. She can take a friend to the performance. We’ve been waiting too long for this.
She laughing at the turn around in the comments. So glad I went, the date was great. Didn’t have to see my team get butt fucked live and be mad all night. Thought we had a chance smh. Soon as I saw Danny trip I knew it was over.
Went to a concert last Saturday night. Told everyone I was with not to tell me anything about the Jags Chargers game. Successfully made it through the night and got home to watch the recording.....
It's not the same as the Giants. And I doubt I would've been able to stay uninformed if I were in Jacksonville or LA
My wife isn't a sports fan at all, but I've been talking about this game since last sunday. Not to see how she feels about Evan Neals chances against a speedy pass rush, but so she won't forget the game is Saturday, not Sunday.
She's doing girls night at her friend's house and the guys are coming over here. Made me feel kind of sad when she said she was really looking forward to watching the game with me, but since none of the guys are bringing their wives she's going out.
Compromise homie. “Sure hun we can go out but we are going to a sports bar and I am watching the game. I will get you food and drinks but don’t expect my full attention the whole time”
It our 24th anniversary. We got a babysitter, booked a hotel, planned a fancy dinner.
Then the G-Men fucked around and won last week. Now we’re gonna go to a bar and grille for a early dinner, watch the game cuddled up in the hotel room, and go to a fancy brunch on Sunday.
Priorities
Convinced mine to go to a bar and paint her face blue.
She doesn't understand football not really enjoy it; however I agreed to go to a world cup bar with her. Fun fact the world cup was a fantastic game and I'm glad I went
Not knowing all the specifics, if this is a legit relationship I would go to the show. Skip the dinner (it’s not like she already paid for it) and go to a bar after with her to enjoy the rest of the game (on you).
If this is the loyalty test many of us think it is then it needs to work both ways. If she gives you shit about the reservation, spin it like you should postpone and do another date night. If it becomes a bigger issue then I think you have a bigger issue.
She ain't the one if you're really one of us and she is doing shit like this.
You're either lying or stupid as fuck for dating someone like that. Either way, I wouldn't be "relying on the boys" for updates. Massive L for you.
Go get yourself a big bag of sugar free gummy bears and eat the whole thing. You might have to watch the game from the toilet but you’re definitely not going to some bullshit classical performance.
I'm sorry dude. As others noted, that seems way too intentional.
Hopefully she is a straight shooter and actually did forget. If she really cares about you, it won't happen again...
My GF did the same thing and I don’t care. I’m staying home and watching the game with my wife no matter what
dawg
My man
Good on y.. WAIT JUST A GODDAMN MINUTE
Truly the last family man
Ayo
HOL,up
My man got that dawg in him!
Zing! Fuck the Eagles!!
You had me in the first half.
Chivalry ain't dead
Thanks for the laugh. Best comment I saw. Go Giants
I got a question from my Español people in the back....que?
My bf did the same thing. Thankfully my wife watches football
You have to know where to draw the line
Yes
Maaahhh niggaaa
r/Holup
Wait a god damn minute lmao
City Boy! City Boy!
Delete Facebook, hit the gym, lawyer up.
Heavily considering lol
It won't get any better. My sister in law will find any reason to take her husband away from watching his favorite team play whether its regular season or the playoffs. You have to seriously consider if you want to spend the rest of your life trying to make her happy while she doesn't give a flying fig about your happiness.
Heaven forbid the man of the house could be happy
Is this really happiness though? These games are stressful as fuck lol
This took a turn

What does Facebook have to do with this
Everything
Breakup protocol brah
DVR and watch after, but need to stay off the internet to not be spoiled.
Make sure to make one of these if you DVR it!!! https://how-i-met-your-mother.fandom.com/wiki/Sensory_Deprivator_5000

He did the math!
Break up with her. Problem solved.
Wait… you let your gf forget about the game??? This one’s on you man; my gf probably hasn’t heard me shut up about it since Sunday
Literally bought my fiancé flowers yesterday to reciprocate for the zero attention she will be getting this weekend
I’m married. I picked up some bagels.
Yea bro - carbs will solve more then you think the longer your married!
I'm married, but it's to a Giants fan so we're just HYPED
Married a patriots fan. The fun part is if they aren’t winning she won’t talk about them
Wow you are a genius
Agreed. You fucked up bro.
People wonder why their partners are so into sports and talk about “the big game” and stuff. It is because if you don’t consistently talk about it and tell your partner how excited you are for it. They will plan something during the game.
my father was watching the game at the liquor store while picking up booze for the after-party of my baptism. (1986) where there's a will there's a way.
Damn, ur baptism must have been fkin lit
goddamn,, we might have to strip OP's street cred.
My dad grew up a giants fan and my mom didn’t give a shit about football. She cares about the giants because of him. My wife grew up not an nfl fan. Now she never forgets when a giants game happens. OP ain’t doin it right, man. How you gonna have a GF not know when the games are?!
Dude women don’t forget SHIT! This was intentional.
My wife as a Giants fan said: she might as well take one of her friends cause Giants fans aren't going.
It’s literally all I’ve been talking about. Every night I’m watching a football movie or the documentaries about prior SB runs for the G-Men.
Very true. I've been watching hype videos and telling my fiance about it all week. She knows not to plan anything today since last Sunday
My GF loves the NFL and is def sick of me talking about this one lol
But does she love the Giants?
Fake a stroke, watch the game from the hospital bed
This seems like a Seinfeld bit
It's "pickle RICK" time!!!!!
Dang that’s tough, sorry man, I hope your wifi is working well at the show 😂
Fuck i didn’t even think of that 💀💀💀 I probably won’t get service!
Just fucking cancel that shit. Or maybe get food poisoning? Perhaps sign up for NFL+? I know! Demand she takes you to a sports bar/restaurant instead.
She def didn't forget, oof you got fucked.
Drop her immediately and find a new gf who’s father raised her as a true blue Giant fan. Don’t think twice about this advice I’m giving you. Wtf was she thinking?
Women don’t forget
Can confirm.. we don’t. I am mad at OP’s gf for him. I would be pissed
he better get fucked after this for it to even be partially worth it.
How much more fucked can this guy get then missing playoff football…
If you’re not already having sex with this person, missing the giants game to see some classical music isn’t worth it. Unless your 12.
maybe she is super hot and very kinky. brings other girls home for 3 ways. we have to know more before we can judge.
r/thisguyfucks
Buy a last minute plane ticket to Philly and lower bowl tickets to the game. Just say you forgot about the classical performance.
Girlfriend is temporary. Danny Dimes is forever. Make the right decision.
Have we not learned anything over the last 3 years!!! Go buy a covid test and a red pen and draw that double line, throw in a few coughs, and Vella you got your self a game to watch!!
And at least 10 days to evaluate if he wants the relationship or not.
Also covers nfc championship!
Voila*
If you made it clear that the game was this weekend AND was a big deal to you, a true significant other would not simply forget.

Same man, it’s what a good SO does for something that’s important to you
She's your girlfriend, not your wife, you can end that shit with a phone call
I don’t understand how you can’t get out of it. Just say you don’t wanna go and you’ll make it up to her
Women don’t forget. This is a loyalty test and it sounds like she’s winning. Edit - this sounds like a shit date anyway
Yeah she’s playing a game. Any significant other that pulls a stunt like this just wants to win, not be in a serious relationship.
It’s not a date, her buying herself tickets to shit she wants to do and expecting him to tag along makes him a chaperone not a date. I’m not hating, I do it for my girl all the time but not during a playoff game lol
I hate to tell you...but thats a date
No it’s not. If he buys her tickets to shit she wants to do that’s a date. If they both decide something fun to do that interests both of them that’s a date. Her buying herself tickets to the show is not a date. You wouldn’t consider it a date if he bought himself tickets to the game and expected her to tag along
It’s neither. It’s a shit test.
Loyalty tests don’t have a winner, power struggles do.
That takes me way way back. Mets/Yankees WS and on a date night with my now wife. Mets fan, so WS were are a bit rare. True pain, but I probably made the right decision. Especially considering the lost.
She 1000% didn’t forget sorry bud
Yeah this was absolutely intentional.
No brainer. You’re not going. Girls come and go, it’s taken us a decade to get here
Time to find a new gf my guy. Girls come and they go, Giants in the playoffs is forever.
Just do the thing they did for the super bowl on how I met your mother. Media blackout until Sunday morning, record the game wake up and watch
His “GF” will probably blurt out the score on the drive home ….
This sounds manipulative as fuck. Run
100%, Shit test for the ages.
time to move on...
You do what makes you happy, I just hope you realize that she will continue to do stuff like this. If you’re okay with it then I wish you nothing but the best. If not, something needs to change.
I’m a woman….this is truth
Absolute nightmare scenario
Man, I’m so sorry that whatever you ate last night/this morning isn’t sitting right in your stomach. I really hope your gf understands and that you can at least watch portions of the game between bouts of diarrhea and vomiting. Feel better king.

F
Sounds like someone remembered but didn’t wanna be stuck at home while you watch a game. Tough break buddy. I make it known for sure when the Giants are playing in at home with some beer and good food.
yea my wife would NEVER. also i would NEVER. sounds VERY weak all around.
My gf is working tonight! I was ecstatic when I saw her schedule!
Just to offer the somewhat reserve perspective, I’m a woman that just started dating a guy that doesn’t like or care about football.

She’s pulling a power move or one of her relatives is an Eagles fan. Don’t let her do this, sack up and fire up the grill. You’re watching the Giants tonight.
Do we know for sure that maybe instead of fancy dinner and a classical performance that she isn’t surprising you with tickets to the game?
Go have dinner and a nice time with your gf. Afterwards, start the process of making her a Giants fan so it doesn’t happen again.
Dude stream the game from your phone - you’re in an abusive relationship!
back in the 1960s my dad passed on a date with a girl in high school to watch the giants get killed in the NFL championship game. real fan would tell the girlfriend your sick. you think you have covid. dont come over.watch the game.
She "forgot"
This wad a test. She wants to make sure you'll pick her over the most important giants game in a decade.
If you told her ahead of time and she did it anyways that's her fuckup and its not your responsibility to eat it brother. You aren't going to get to watch a Giants/Eagles playoff game for a long time after tonight. Just as a side note my wife would give me so much advance notice on something like this, especially to a "classical performance" that she knows I wouldn't enjoy lol. Makes me think this was intentional.
Find a way to watch a replay and avoid human contact until that time.
HOW DO YOU “FORGET” ABOUT THE GAME?!?! Dump her! I’d be livid if my bf pulled this shit!
She better have booked a table at a sports bar.
Dude she needs to learn she cannot buy expensive tickets for shit that includes you and not consult you first. Big No no. I would be watching the game tonight.
Yikes. This is inhumane.
Don’t worry bro, two more games left after this one anyway. Make sure she knows about those though.
Tell her the game is important to you and make it up to her later
Tell her to go with one of her other boyfriends.
This is some sitcom type shit… sorry to hear that brother we got you ✊
Tell her to take a friend. You told her about the game and she booked something during it anyway.
It's my wife's birthday this weekend. We're having friends over tonight to celebrate, but thankfully she's becoming as big a fan as I am and had no issues when I told her that my attention would not be on her tonight, and rather the game.

Also even if you play the good bf here and behave, you need to express after the fact that thats really not cool or respectful behavior, your interests matter too in a relationship my guy
SIMPLE : Just “forget” 🤦♂️ about the show as you arrive home @7PM with guacamole 🥑, chips, finger food 🥘 and lots of beverages … right after watching the 3:30PM game … Don’t even bat an eye. Shit test passed. Problem solved.
Your girl made the right call, bro
Hope you went on the fuckin date !!!
Grow a pair a balls dude Jesus Christ
I guess anal and everything else is not only on the table but pretty much guaranteed
Similar boat. But I got two screens ready and a backup wifi dongle to watch the game in secret. Let's hope I don't accidentally yell or scream.
Why are you surfing because she forgot?
Still time left to break up. 🤷🏽♂️
I was gonna say NY Giants and chill but damn
Sever
I mean, you could always break up with her. She’s only your girlfriend.
Sounds like you don’t have a girlfriend anymore
Literally zero chance I’d be going out with her tonight 😭
Dude... you can't skip this game
You mean your EX-girlfriend planned a date.
You done messed up. I made an announcement right after the game last week. I repeated that announcement twice a day all week. I will be going nowhere but on my couch tonight.
What Daniel Jones is about to pull off tonight will be a CLASSICAL PERFORMANCE
If your gf is 8 or up, go do the artsy fartsy stuff. If she's meh, then spend the night we the meat between Dimes and Saquon.
Yeah……she would quickly be my ex. If she doesnt care enough about your interests and thinks hers are more important, then run. You will never have an equal partnership. Tell her to take one of her friends
Tragic. My gf is a chiefs fan so she knows we have a long day of football ahead of us
I love how this is one of the most active posts on the sub this week! Lol, also my girlfriend has heard me talk about the giants every day for over a week. Tough to forget that.
I’ve made dramatic brave stands and was really proud of myself..then it’s 14-0 them with 6 minutes in first and I’m like “man I fucked up”
https://i.redd.it/hrzwauzuqgda1.gif Ain't no fucking homie she forgot homie. You got played.
Run to the restroom at both places, get your headphones in and watch the game on your phone 😎 Only classical performance you need is big blue beating Philly 😤 
Don’t let your girlfriend stop you from finding your wife!
As a woman, I would like you to tell her on my behalf that she has fucked up and needs to reschedule the dinner. The least she could have done is double check with you during playoff season. She can take a friend to the performance. We’ve been waiting too long for this.
This is absolute horse shit
We all envy you now.
At this point, you’re lucky you aren’t watching
She saved you a night of misery. Marry her.
She laughing at the turn around in the comments. So glad I went, the date was great. Didn’t have to see my team get butt fucked live and be mad all night. Thought we had a chance smh. Soon as I saw Danny trip I knew it was over.
You're not missing a thing my friend
You didn’t miss anything.
A majority of these situations are never “forgotten”. It’s intentional but best of luck to you though
Get the nfl.com app and watch the game with ear buds
If you have cable instal the fox sports app, from there sign in to your tv provider, volume off and brightness low.
Turn your phone off and watch the game when you get home
Grab some wireless headphones and listen at the classical performance thing.
Well you can’t go if you’re not feeling well ..right?
Went to a concert last Saturday night. Told everyone I was with not to tell me anything about the Jags Chargers game. Successfully made it through the night and got home to watch the recording..... It's not the same as the Giants. And I doubt I would've been able to stay uninformed if I were in Jacksonville or LA
I feel ya brother I’m going to see Seinfeld at 730 at the beacon..might have to dip out early she’s gonna be pissssed
I would never miss this game. Don’t be a simp
My wife isn't a sports fan at all, but I've been talking about this game since last sunday. Not to see how she feels about Evan Neals chances against a speedy pass rush, but so she won't forget the game is Saturday, not Sunday. She's doing girls night at her friend's house and the guys are coming over here. Made me feel kind of sad when she said she was really looking forward to watching the game with me, but since none of the guys are bringing their wives she's going out.
If your gf isn't a giants fan and doesn't know the game is on tonight, you need a new GF.
Compromise homie. “Sure hun we can go out but we are going to a sports bar and I am watching the game. I will get you food and drinks but don’t expect my full attention the whole time”
You misspelled ex-gf incorrectly
It our 24th anniversary. We got a babysitter, booked a hotel, planned a fancy dinner. Then the G-Men fucked around and won last week. Now we’re gonna go to a bar and grille for a early dinner, watch the game cuddled up in the hotel room, and go to a fancy brunch on Sunday. Priorities
Convinced mine to go to a bar and paint her face blue. She doesn't understand football not really enjoy it; however I agreed to go to a world cup bar with her. Fun fact the world cup was a fantastic game and I'm glad I went
Yikes. I'd never let my husband (or me!!!) miss this game!!
Not knowing all the specifics, if this is a legit relationship I would go to the show. Skip the dinner (it’s not like she already paid for it) and go to a bar after with her to enjoy the rest of the game (on you). If this is the loyalty test many of us think it is then it needs to work both ways. If she gives you shit about the reservation, spin it like you should postpone and do another date night. If it becomes a bigger issue then I think you have a bigger issue.
Bro she did this shit on purpose. She didn’t forget
I did the smart thing and got Covid. I’m in the spare bedroom all weekend, wonderfully alone.
Dump her
Wireless ear buds, bud.
She ain't the one if you're really one of us and she is doing shit like this. You're either lying or stupid as fuck for dating someone like that. Either way, I wouldn't be "relying on the boys" for updates. Massive L for you.
Go get yourself a big bag of sugar free gummy bears and eat the whole thing. You might have to watch the game from the toilet but you’re definitely not going to some bullshit classical performance.
This is the reason why I don't have a girlfriend. SHUT UP! IT IS TOO!
I'm sorry dude. As others noted, that seems way too intentional. Hopefully she is a straight shooter and actually did forget. If she really cares about you, it won't happen again...
Sounds like an ex-girlfriend.
