Today, I invited my girlfriend to go eat out, hoping to put her in a really romantic mood. She decided to tell her friend, who then invited herself and another couple along. I ended up being made fifth wheel, and had to sit alone at an adjacent table. FML

Today, my date unexpectedly brought her friend to dinner with us. They seemed bored of me after ten minutes and left me out of their conversation for the rest of the night. Oh, and they made me pay for both of them. FML

Today, I went out to eat with some friends. They picked a table that wasn't big enough for all of us. I had to sit in the booth behind them. Alone. FML

Today, I went on my first date in over a year, and my best friend popped up at the restaurant uninvited. To make it worse, she pulled up a chair right in between us and started an argument with the bartender. FML

Today, it was supposed to be my birthday dinner with two of my friends. They're both now bringing their boyfriends, so I get to be the fifth wheel to my own birthday dinner. FML

Today, my girlfriend chose the most expensive restaurant in town, then spent the entire time facebooking, texting, and playing games on her phone while I dined in silence. This is the second time we've been out this week. She didn't even eat her food. I didn't even get a thank you. FML

Today, I wanted to take my girlfriend to a nice dinner before prom. Her parents followed her in, and joined us to "keep an eye on me." They interrupted all our conversations, ate an expensive meal, then got up and walked out when the waitress brought the $95 check, leaving me to pay for it. FML

Today, my friends and I were going to Applebee's. A girl we don't like invited herself along. She waited for my friend outside of the bathroom, forced her to drive her, and said, "It's okay someone will pay for me." She then ate off of everyone's plate and left before the bill came. FML

Today, I took my girlfriend out to eat at a diner where my friend works. My friend was our waiter but too busy to talk much. He texted me after we'd left to tell me that my girlfriend had slipped him her number. FML

Today, my friend invited me, his girlfriend, and the girl I like over to his house to hang out. We hoped it would get me closer to my crush. The day ended with them having a threesome and me locked out. FML

Why didn't you tell her you wanted it to be just her? Could have solved a lot of problems.

To me it sounds like your girlfriend is using you! Explain to her how you felt about what happened and see if you can go out again? (if she will apologize!)

Im not Captain Obvious, but I am pretty sure normal people would rather sit with their bf/gf. I think Op's gf doesn't like him as much or she would have noticed. I would have been like "Dude! Let me sit next to my gf you dick!" then say "I am sorry I called you a dick, but I only wanted to be with my gf. As long as I am then I will be happy and won't care who sits with us." Idk why people don't do something about things like this. I donkt have the guts to sit alone. If I wanted to sit alone then I would stay home and chill on a computer or something.

That doesn't sound like you're bf/gf.

Yeah, because people in relationships never, ever spend time with friends or anyone else besides their significant other, right? This isn't really a problem at all--it's just a miscommunication issue and the OP is whining because he didn't get sex in exchange for dinner.

That's a good devils advocate argument lets also take into consideration maybe the OP wanted just some time with his girlfriend and wanted to indulge in the simple pleasure of having someone there and her inviting her friends wasn't taking that into consideration granted he should've made it clear that it was only supposed to be them two but also she should've asked out of courtesy if she could invite friends.

what i dont get, is why did OPs girlfriend feel the need to tell everybody that she's going out? what, does she tell everybody when she's going out to pick up groceries too?
