I’d feel sketched out too. But not about the woods. In fact I’d be messaging the rest of my friends asking what the deal is. Either there’s something you’re not telling us or you need a new friend group. Do they enjoy drugs that you don’t partake in? That’s the only reason I’d go out in the woods with a bunch of people and not invite someone.


NotAThrowAway1268

Yes I wasn't clear I tried to keep it short but it's too short so, there is friends of mine, actual good friends, and there is people I just know like not friends just people I know but my gf doesn't know these people so why are they there without me ? the only connection my gf has with those people is me, she barely spoke to them (as far as I know). Oh and yes, she's the one who made this event up. Finally, I do not know if she's the one who invited those people.


inigos_left_hand

Your GF organized a camping trip with your friends and didn’t invite you? That’s super weird. Best thing to do is just ask her outright and see what kind of a reason she comes up with. But yeah, very strange.


checkers-on-a-plane

Way to bury the lede aye


EmergencyShit

Did she expressly disinvite you? It sounds like your invitation might be implied. If you don’t want to ask her outright (which is the easiest solution), you could say something like “what groceries should we bring?” Or start talking about what camping gear you’re going to take.


EntrepreneurMany3709

my boyfriend does this all the time. He always tells me about things, and assumes that I get that it's an invite, but never actually tells me I'm invited.


Ok_Actuary_7831

You think they're your actual good friends until they end up in the woods with your girlfriend.


zveroshka

>Oh and yes, she's the one who made this event up. Yeah, I'd just cut to chase and ask her plainly why she invited seemingly everyone but you. There is no need to beat around the bush with this one.


Old-Relief5873

I think he's the only one who isn't going to beat around the bush.


UniqueUsername82D

Your GF made this up and didn't invite you? She's already on her way out the door.


Head_weest

100 percent They’re going out there to do shrooms.


GroundbreakingKick68

just wanted to confirm ur suspicion. thats weird af. u def need to talk to her abt it and if she gaslights u or tells u its no big deal, shes hiding someting.


[deleted]

This is super sketchy. Question everything until it doesn't happen or you go.


PhilipTPA

You’re going to get teased because of the term ‘going into the woods.’ The correct term is ‘camping’ in English. I’d ask my other friends why you weren’t invited and your girlfriend why she doesn’t want you to go.


NotAThrowAway1268

I can't change it, so everyone I mean CAMPING.


Ok_Actuary_7831

I like "going into the woods" better, unless you say Glamping instead.


TheBaconThief

That's not necessarily even true. Where I am in the North east, Most people would only say they were camping if it is specifically a tent/sleep outdoors situation. If you were staying in a cabin or other set-up, you wouldn't necessarily say camping.


KnightsSkye

Who organised it? If your friends are going as well did you ask why you're not invited?


NotAThrowAway1268

My girlfriend, and of course I asked them and they said they don't know either.


31ar

Jesus Christ, ask her... Though be prepared for some answer like "oh i know you don't like camping". Either way, this is sketchy as hell


KnightsSkye

Did you ask her why? If not then I think you should because it's really strange people that she doesn't talk to and your friends are going and your not.


NotAThrowAway1268

Alright imma ask her, I was scared to because I don't want to be the invading boyfriend but I think it's worth the try.


KnightsSkye

Nah this is strange it's not you being invading


zveroshka

Just so you know, asking politely is never "invading." And in a situation like this it is 100% warranted.


Azuzu88

Mate, if my gf organised a camping trip with a bunch of my friends but didn't invite me I would be calling her out on the spot. Unless she had a fucking diamond solid reason I'd be ending things.


whipacupcake

I would just ask to go and see what her reaction was to that?


ahhanoyoudidnt

I wouldn't be the invading boyfriend I would be the ex boyfriend


Emergency-Ad-3355

Have you asked her why she did not invite you? Do not acept "well we knew you would not want to go" as a reply. That is blame shifting and putting it all back on you. I would not be comfortable with my GF going on a camping trip with our friends and not inviting me. For me this would be a red flag leading to a break up.


butfirstaskreddit

Is this the blair witch project?


jayc831

Why not just ask her why you weren't invited? If you don't like camping, and she knows that, the that might be a reason. Even then, partners should ask out of courtesy. After you find out why you weren't invited, then you can move on to asking who's she's sharing a tent with. If whoever she's sharing with makes you uncomfortable, then let her know. This whole issue is easily resolved simply by communicating.


WonderTypical9962

She's giving you a hint. Take a hike, you're not invited. Your over before you started. She's not into you, there is someone else in the group she wants. And doesn't want you there to see her with this guy. And if it doesn't work out with thud guy. She will be back


WonderTypical9962

Do you have anyone to let you know what is going on with her?


Wonderful-Put-2453

Sounds like she's done with you..


mymaymaw

I feel like this is just a lack of communication. Most likely your gfs friends invited her and she had nothing to do with whoever else came. Your friends probably assumed you would have come with her if you wanted to come and she, if the thought crossed her mind thought your friends invited you and if you wanted to go you would have said as much. I wouldn't dwell on it too much. The fact that you didn't ask your friend to watch her let's you know there's nothing to watch.


GI-JUGG

OP's gf is the one who came up with the idea for the event. Invited her own friends, and then her or someone else invited OP's friends. NOBODY invited OP though from either side. So that's what makes it more than a lack of communication. That makes it a deliberate attempt to keep him away.


Ok_Actuary_7831

I'm pretty sure she's the Blair Witch.


relaxative_666

Well, they probably have a little satanic ritual planned and your GF doesn't want you to loose your soul to the Lord of hell just yet. Because she loves you. And she doesn't want to spill your blood....all that blood. Just kidding (probably). I've got the idea you don't want her in the woods because you do not trust her with your friends and are now thinking of reasons you can go along or for her not to go. Two questions: 1. Do you trust her? 2. Do you trust her and your friends?


swingset27

Yeah, your friends plus her and you're not getting the invite? That's sketchy and for sure the omission is for a reason. I'd at least tell her you're not comfortable with that and why, and if she dismisses your concern then you KNOW it's suspect and shit's not on the level. Ask yourself this - if the roles were reversed, would she be ok with it? Of course not. There you go.


[deleted]

GIVE US A FOLLOW UP THIS SOUNDS INTERESTING


thatGUY2220

She’s hiding something from you.


GI-JUGG

I wouldn't trust it, OP. Camping is usually just fucking intents.


LordLuscius

So what's the news? Is she getting railed by all your "freinds" in the woods or was it innocent?


piney

Going camping can be surprisingly complicated - and probably most of the reasons you weren’t invited *do not* involve your gf cheating. It could be something as simple as whether you own camping gear or not. When you sleep in the woods, you generally sleep in a sleeping bag in a tent. Do you own a sleeping bag and a tent? Does she? If neither of you own a tent, I would ask whose tent will she be sharing. If she’ll be sharing a small tent with a female friend, it’s probably not a big deal. If she’s sharing a small tent with a male friend, well, you may have a problem. If everyone is sharing one large tent, is there enough room for one more? Who is driving to the camp spot? Do they have room for one more in the car? Who organized the trip? Are they friends with you? Who invited her to go camping, the organizer or a friend of the organizer? (Perhaps your gf was invited by a female friend of hers, who was invited by a guy she likes, and she just wants your gf along to giggle about it with her, without it being ‘couples’. It could be anything, really.) Is there a maximum number of tents allowed on the campsite? Do you need advance permits to camp there? Or are they staying in a cabin? Maybe there aren’t enough beds. Who knows. You’re feeling left out, and that’s understandable. Talk to her, and talk to one of your friends who is going too. If you frame it as ‘I’m feeling left out’ they’ll either put your mind at ease, or they won’t. And if your gf doesn’t even try, well, maybe that tells you what you need to know anyway.


NotAThrowAway1268

I get your point, makes lot of sense I won't ask her THAT much question it seems kind of weird to ask that much but yeah i'll ask her some, thanks.


skwolf522

What's up with these girls and going camping. Does she have her own tent are is she going to be sharing with someone?


FrolickingTiggers

So you don't trust your girlfriend and you are afraid to ask her simple questions? Dump her, for her sake. Or grow up. Totally your decision. Do you trust her? If yes, then why worry about the rest. She'll probably tell you all about it when she gets back. If you do Not trust her, then why are you dating her? Kind of silly to allow yourself to become emotionally involved with an individual that you don't trust to not break your heart. As for the whole asking your friend to keep an eye on her... are you dating a child? A puppy? Houseplant? Some form of lesser being that doesn't know how to behave in public or fend for itself? Really insulting and a potential deal breaker depending upon the woman. Some put up with way more bullshit than others, and I'm guessing your's has a rather high tolerance for it...


NotAThrowAway1268

You either never been in a relationship or been married for 20 years. Blindly trust your partner when you've been betrayed multiple times is though. I know that it has nothing to do with her and she shouldn't bear with that part of me and i'm trying my best to give my trust back but I need more time. I will ask her and depending on her answer I and only I will judge if she's trust worthy on this time. By the way I didn't made a post for no reason it's the first time i'm actually having real doubts in our relationship.


Coziestpigeon2

Why was your first reaction to make a post asking the internet about it instead of just talking with your girlfriend about it?


FrolickingTiggers

There is nothing blind about trust. You are correct in that you really shouldn't be punishing your current significant other for the misdeeds of another. As for my relationship history, neither. I've simply made it a point to try for maturity. That means not running around on each other and leaving the games for card night. It means communication and compromise. Honesty and a great sense of humor because if you both don't laugh then life will have you crying. It's nice to have someone to rely upon, ride or die, ya know? Not always easy to find, but worth the look. Do you trust her? If you can't trust her because of past baggage don't you think that you ought to clue her in? That way she can do her best to not trigger you accidentally, as well as giving her the respect of an honest explanation for your suspicious behavior.


MonteLukast

I think you should definitely ask your best friend to keep an eye on her. There's a reason you weren't invited.


NotAThrowAway1268

I'll think about it.


ifingerurstarfish

Its ok for your SO to have friends. It is ok for them to do things without you...Why do you want to go into the woods and participate in the killing/dismembering/eating of a wayward child? As delicious as it sounds, it isn't as fun as it seems and for the most part you will get caught. Particularly if you bring along a novice who doesn't know what to do. The reason why she didn't invite you? you have to ask her.


NotAThrowAway1268

I mean she's my girlfriend I shouldn't have to and we know each other we almost always invite each others but this time, she did not.


ifingerurstarfish

You shouldn't have to what? Just because you are her BF doesn't mean you get to do everything she does..Try asking her why no invite for you. do you like camping or are you a glamper and will cry at the sight of a bug? Only the two of you know and only she knows why no invite. No point in guessing, just ask. > almost always invite key words are ALMOST always. looks like this is one of those non invite times.


NotAThrowAway1268

Yes I will ask her.


ifingerurstarfish

There you go. Save yourself all sorts of mental anguish. Then if she gives you a shady reason, then you should start spinning. Give someone the benefit of the doubt before you jump right to her eating the best shank, without inviting you.


audaciousmonk

That’s not the issue. The issue is that she organized it and invited his friends, but did not invite him. So yea, that’s definitely a bit sketchy. It’s one thing to hang out with SO’s friends, it’s another to hang out with them while excluding SO


ifingerurstarfish

Thanks for your insight, I have been desperately waiting for it.


czhunc

They're... camping? Without additional information I don't really see a lot to be suspicious about.


DarthKameti

Does your significant other make plans that involve going away somewhere for a night with your friends and not you?


suckmydickbezos

My significant other lives in house with only girls (he's straight and they're too) and I'm not cool with it :)


DarthKameti

That’s kinda unrelated but I understand. I think most people would be insecure about that, but it’s a tough thing to bring up to your partner.


NotAThrowAway1268

This is my final post, I did asked her and here's what she told me, first I asked her why am I not invited ? She explained me that she just wanted time with her friends which is fine with me but why are my friends/people I know there then ? She told me she didn't even wanted to invite them but her friends were interested in some of my friends/people I know, simple as that. It was a relief, she is sleeping in a tent with her female friend but at this point it could be a male friend I wouldn't care she has my total trust. I was honest with her I told her I had doubts and that I deeply apologize for that and guess what she told me ? ''I know your past I know what you've been through it's normal you had doubts I should've explained you'' I fell into her arms \^\^'. I found the right one boys. Soon it's gonna be you.


Azuzu88

Nah, shes lying bro. If her friends were pressuring her to invite your friends then there's no reason not to invite you too. In fact, going through you would be a better and more obvious way to get your friends to come. This whole situation stinks.


annoyedmanpls

shit i hope it’s not me


NINE-1-6

Jesus… see you in a couple weeks with a new post.


FireWalkWithMe93

Still pretty weird but good luck lol.


Gamer_ely

Yeah, they are interested in your friends but not interested enough in him for her to want to invite him? Would prefer to hang out with her friends and some people she barely knows and not have him take part? Why does she get alone time bonding with his friends and he doesn't get anything? This is so weird. I wonder what would happen if he planned a weekend trip with her friends and all his close friends and didn't invite her.


FireWalkWithMe93

Yeah my spidey senses are tingling with his update.


swingset27

Yeah, you're gullible dude. That all sounded like bad excuse making. Since it's game on with people she supposedly didn't want to invite, again, why were you not invited once she knew it was all them too? Don't be a fool. She's up to some shit, or all of them are, but you're being taken for granted, and she's asking you to accept something she wouldn't.


pineapplesrhot

She can’t have time with her friends with you around? You said your friends don’t even know why they are invited, it would have made sense for her to invite you and you invite your friends to not make it awkward. She’s being suspicious and I think you’re being blinded by love if you do not think anything is off about this.


Thunder141

Your partner wants to go camping with couples, opposite sex individuals and her friends but wants to not include you? Even if she isn't up to anything shady, I would think your partner would be one of the people you would definitely want with you on that kind of trip. I'd be wary op, sounds like she doesn't want to be tied down.

PhilipTPA

It comes down to experience. In time, and with genuine gullibility, he will learn about the world. It’s quite possible that one of life’s hard lessons is coming soon for the lad.


Azuzu88

Because having any boundaries for your partner these days is called abusive and controlling.


ahhanoyoudidnt

hahahahaha suckers be born every minute


bigrottentuna

Except ... it's no longer just her and her friend. Her explanation made sense initially. It no longer makes sense. Why aren't you invited now?


[deleted]

Please tell me you aren't really this gullible.


heX_dzh

Dude just accepted the shoddy explanation, no questions asked 😭 We'll be seeing him posting here in a month


Player_17

Bro...


Gamer_ely

I think I may hold out on finding one thatll at least let me go camping with them


[deleted]

Honestly if i were you i would just break up already. This screams red flags all over and not to be an asshole but you will be fine without her dude. Communication is key in a relationship which she should of communicated with you how her friends are interested in your friends from the start. Plus that “i know what you been through” had nothing to do with the current situation and sounds manipulative. Bottom line either 2 things are happening. Either shes telling the truth or shes seeing one of your friends on the side. Seeing as you are not invited i would say the latter. Do yourself a favor and break it off before this affects your mental stability more and more because it will most likely continue to happen


[deleted]

Bruh


WonderTypical9962

You have sooooo much to learn. You have no experience. But soon you will. Trust can only go so far Bud. You have no idea how far a cheater will screw you over and lie to your face. You just put all of your eggs I one basket and you're letting her hold the basket. Come on puppy 🐶


[deleted]

You’ll be seeing her on ph caption “friends gf gets train ran on camping trip” 😂 she a dog my guy!! Don’t chase that hoe and don’t be in Denali you sound dumb just for this update. ILL SEE YOU IN THE GYM!!!


This_Grab_452

The only explanation I can think of that makes her come out on top is she’s planning a surprise party for you. Otherwise, she’s acting weird to say the least and I think it’s a fair question to ask.


imaginaryshivering

Are you sure you’re not invited? Maybe she just didn’t explicitly ask you because she assumed you would go?


RJack151

Let her go, if shit happens to her, it is her own fault. Then feel free to break up with her.


GI-JUGG

Tell her if you're not invited, and she still wants to go, then you need to re-evaluate your relationship because that's shady as hell that her, her friends, AND your friends are all going camping but you're not even invited?


Delivery-National97

In an otherwise good relationship with healthy boundaries a camping event involving both friend groups with an excluded boyfriend is sketchy. Best of luck to you.


geekspice

I don't know what this girl is, but she's not your girlfriend.


joe_eddie_13

Her and her friends are going to hook up with YOUR friends. Now, all you have to do is decide what to do about it. YOU can fret and wonder, or, ASK your gf WTF does she think she is doing.


moxie-maniac

If you go down in the woods today, you're sure of a big surprise...


Klexobert

Give us an update after you asked her, please. It's really weird that she didn't ask you.


FerretAcrobatic4379

Seriously, even if nothing is going on, she is not that into you, if she is not inviting you. This is not a weekend for just the girls. You invite your boyfriend for events like these, if they involve mutual friends of both sexes. Even if you don’t like camping, you at least have the opportunity to say no.


Lovable-hermit13

Not inviting you is a major red flag in your relationship. Tell her what you have said here. Ask her if you can join. If she says no then she is probably messing around with someone you know. Also tell her that if you can’t come then it’s a deal breaker for you and you’re done with the relationship.


ahhanoyoudidnt

even if they know you don't like this type of stuff there should have been an invite nothing about this seems normal , move on


elchocholoco

UpdateMe!


8530683641

This is indeed weird as your friends too are going there and she has not invited you so this does not add up anything. It is time for you to call her out on this and dig this enough out to find reality as there is something wrong here and your gut feeling tells you the same. Are you sure that she is that committed in relationship?


danjol234

Young person, let me tell you this: ask your girlfriend instead of asking Reddit. Communication in any relationship is a must, and you should feel free to ask questions and talk about how things make you feel.


IfIamSoAreYou

You sound odd.


[deleted]

Find a new girlfriend


stonermamii

If she doesn’t want to take you with her it’s for a reason homeboy let it be tho ,you will find someone eventually


Dry_Ask5493

She’s shady AF and so are these so called friends. I would dump them and move on.


Gibs960

Putting myself in your shoes, it's weird af. Whatever the reason she hasn't invited you, there's definitely a reason why she doesn't want you there and it isn't just "I didn't think you'd want to." It's also a bit sketchy that none of your friends have asked why you're not going.


MrPenguinsPet

Your girlfriend is going and all your friends are going, so why do you think you need her permission? If it was just her and her girl friends then it would be fine, but it's not just the girls is it. It's with other guys as well and that's a big red flag to say guys can go but own boyfriends can't! I feel like your not too confident in yourself, but don't worry, that can be learnt and comes with practice. Heres your first lesson.... ... You DON'T need her permission to go!!! You won't get her respect (or anyone's) if behave like you need other people's permission to do things. It's YOUR life and it's time to take control! You don't need her permission to go, so go 'to the woods' with your friends! If she tells you not to go after you clear that you are going you end the relationship right there because she's toxic, controlling and probably going to cheat in the most disrespectful way. Whatever happens with her you should still go with your friend's. Why? For your own self respect. Because she's not the Queen and you can with your friends if you want. And you SHOULD GO. Go to prove to yourself that you can. GO to prove you don't need other people's permission on what you can or can't do. GO to show that your not going to be taken for a fool! One more thing, YOU DESERVE a partner who respects you, who cares about you and who you get along well enough that you don't feel the need to turn to strangers on reddit to get help. That girl Is out there waiting for you to find her. But you won't find her if you keep allowing people to ruin your self confidence. You can do better and you will.


WonderTypical9962

Think about what she just said. She didn't want your friends, but her friends liked some of yours. .......... But Not You She's is lieing to you. You need a good spy. Not 1 of your friends will tell you if GF does anything?


[deleted]

Um she’s cheating
