Posting from a side account. For context: my boyfriend and I have been dating for 10 months and we’ve had a good relationship so far.
Recently I was invited to go to Miami with my friends and I really want to go but I don’t know how to tell my boyfriend. I know he’ll feel uncomfortable because we joked about it a few months ago and he told me very serious he wouldn’t like the idea at all.
My boyfriend thinks Miami isn’t a nice place to go when in a relationship because it’s a city for single people and so on. And honestly out of respect for him, I’m considering not going. Which I think is kind of unfair because I lowkey want to escape from the coldness of NY, go to the beach and have some drinks with my friends. Also I haven’t been on a girls trip in a long time (school, family & boyfriend keep me busy) and this is my opportunity to relink with my friends.
May I say my boyfriend frequently goes (every 3 months or so) on business trips to DR, LA and Medellín-Colombia. When he’s free he goes out with his partner to the beach and they have some drinks over there. Which is great and I feel happy he’s able to do so! And I hope he feels the same way when I travel.
TL;DR: how should I bring my upcoming girls trip to Miami up? I don’t want to make my boyfriend feel uneasy and uncomfortable nor jeopardize the relationship because I really love him and I see myself dating this man for a long time.
