AIO? Gf hypocrisy
So back in November of last year, my girlfriend(26) went to a Friendsgiving and one of the guys she used to date and hook up with was there. I(27) told her how I was uncomfortable with this and I would prefer her if she did not go she said she was not gonna be the girl that doesn’t go out because her boyfriend doesn’t want her to so she went even though I was uncomfortable with that.
Fast forward to about January 2026 we break up because she didn’t feel like we wanted the same things i.e. family kids stuff like that
Fast forward to the beginning of April we start talking again and start dating again
Now my cousin’s birthday is coming up. I dated one of her friends and hooked up with her in the past and she’s going to be at the function. My girlfriend and I got a huge fight over this about how she was uncomfortable with this and how she will not be going and that if I will be going, then she is done.
Now last year my girlfriend had gone through my phone without me, knowing and found out I had been talking to this girl closely to the time that I was talking to her, she was also talking to her ex at the same time.
She is saying that this girl I used to hook up with being at the party is different than her going to the Friendsgiving last year. She chose to have a full long conversation with the guy and even tried to convince me to be friends with him and I literally told her we don’t even have to acknowledge the girl.
TLDR: girlfriend went to a Friendsgiving last year with one of her pass hook ups I told her I was uncomfortable with it. She went anyways. Now I have my cousin‘s birthday coming up and one of my past hook ups will be there and she’s saying that it makes her uncomfortable and that if I go, she will be done.
I ended up telling her that I am done because I can’t believe she’s being such a hypocrite.
Reddit consensus: NOT OVERREACTING (NOR) (100% confidence)
Top comment: “So why exactly do you want to stay/be with her?! NOR”
Notable comment: “NOR but you are both wrong for trying to forbid the other one to attend events with past hookups there. If you are in a healthy relationship then you should be able to trust the other one at an event with friends and one previous relationship. It’s not like you are going there to see that one person.”
Do you agree with Reddit’s consensus?
Yes
No
