Am I being a silly bint?

*max*

I think I would have been disappointed about not going, and quite jealous they get to see my favourite band, but crashing their night out wouldn't even have entered my mind. So yes, I would probably have sulked for a bit (immature, but there you go...lol), but I wouldn't have asked to come along. It's a gift to him from his brother, it's nothing to do with you! I think you may have spoiled it for him now.

How about getting a babysitter and having a night out with your friends the same night? Then you can go see the band some other time with him.

Edit: you posted before me!

but you said the next time they tour, which is next month. your obviously not that fussed about not going or youd have mentioned it before now. the difference seems to be his brother who wants to spend quality time with his brother, alone. you have a problem with that.

We're too bloody broke to go next month, what with Christmas coming up! Hence us saying we'd go next year when we have a bit more money. Jeezo woman!

Get yourself a ticket, I got 4 on Wednesday for my family, can't wait to see them.

These have tickets remaining. Do check other website though, you may find them cheaper. I paid £64.00 each for seating through o2 priority tickets.

I think you're over-reacting and owe him an apology.

By the sounds of it, his brother bought HIM a ticket so that the two of them can go to see Coldplay together i.e. a brotherly bonding thing. It would be really rude of your OH to then invite you along.

Despite the fact you REALLY want to see Coldplay, I think you need to accept this as an annoying coincidence, and go and see Coldplay with your OH next time they tour...

youve been together a year, you had the discussion then, and the next tour pertinent to that conversation is next month. which was announced some time ago. coldplay only announced the 2012 mini tour last week, so you must be psychic to know that youll go next year for a tour that wasnt announced nor expected.

Would there be a problem if you now bought your own ticket to go with them?

If so, I'd make my own arrangements, buy two tickets and go with a mate......

Well actually his brother bought him the ticket so that he'd get it early and he would pay him back. It wasn't a gift or anything. My BF will still be paying for his own ticket.

DSM likes to tell people off and find the little things in posts to argue about OP, don't take it personnally!

No, neither of us knew they'd be touring for definite next year...it was more a case of "well we'll see them next year if they tour" - hence me saying it was not-so-set-in-stone.

Thanks for the helpful, non judgemental advice. I can't help feeling a bit sad that I'll be missing out, but I just want my BF to be happy so I won't mention it again because I don't want him to feel bad. I think it was probably a case of his brother didn't realise I was also a fan and wanted to go so badly.

I just remembered as well, he said last night that his brother said that he won't be taking his other half, because she'll go mad if she finds out they're going to a Coldplay gig in the same month they're getting married (she's very stingy with money...or should I say very money saving!) so perhaps he feels like it would be unfair on her if I went along and would feel even more guilty, so he's made it a "brothers only" thing.

Great way to start a marriage off!!!!
