So, our conflicted boyfriend promised to keep weekends free for his long-distance girlfriend, but when she RSVP’d for them to attend her boss’s wedding, he wasn’t exactly thrilled. He felt he wasn’t breaking his promise, as he still kept the weekend free, but simply didn’t want to attend a wedding where he wouldn’t know anyone. His girlfriend, mom, and the internet had mixed opinions on the situation, but ultimately, he realized he might be blowing things out of proportion. Let’s see what the internet thinks of this situation…
