I've thought about it long and hard and I'm pretty much decided that I want to break up with him, but there's a big problem, my parents have booked a holiday (in about 2 months time)and hes supposed to be coming with us! He's paid £660 for the holiday. My mum told me when she booked the holiday about six months ago "you know, now this is booked, you two cant break up!" and i really dont know what to do :( please help! Thankyou so much! xx Reply to this Question Share |

Haha. Your mum is funny.
Is there any way you could get a refund for his part? I'd start calling expedia or the hotel or whoever it's booked with and find out.
Otherwise, I'd find some other friend or guy who's willing to pay the money to come with you.
Ideally, you want to break up with him and un-invite him to the holiday. Otherwise that will be really unpleasant.

Well it would be a bit terrible to go on holiday with him only to break up when you get back. And if you want to break up, then that's your own business and has nothing to do with anyone else. You are an adult, you can make your own decision. If you want to break up, it's best to break up now.
