He thinks you're gonna cheat on him. (1227)

Is this a common thing or just internet paranoia. Seems like it's pretty easy to know if your relationship is normal there is near 0% chance they would even think of cheating. (-18)

Also cruises advertise as per person, but book per room. Somebody is full of shit, no reason for no plus one. If don't believe me, try to book a room by yourself. You will have to pay double (271)

Good point. The math ain't mathing on this. There's not enough info for me to draw any firm conclusions, but this is a giant hole in the logic of this scenario. (3)

It's a cruise, not a hotel. My guess is that she will be sharing a cabin with a female co-worker. (12)

Darn, women are so crap these days. Imagine investing 8 years with someone and they're like "hey I won this prize where I get to party and drink with lots of attractive people for days without you! Isn't that great?".How tf are you meant to have a relationship with a woman who puts herself in situations like that?This is what happens next. They have a fight over this but she goes anyway. Tells male coworker who fancies her that she's fighting with bf over this. Co-worker gets her drunk and bangs her. Cue teary morning phone call from her saying she has no idea how this happened. End of relationship.Or worse sh doesn't tell you and continues affair and you only find out after you have kids with her.Ditch her now imo before she drags you down with her. She does not value your relationship and will burn you if you don't. (-15)

So uhm, ok, i get it that he's insecure and 4 years younger and is very volatile, and i get that it's dangerous. However, if hee ever got that offer made would he tell you he's going even to dangerous places just because he's a man, he can handle it? I'd slap him in the face without a second thought. Also, 8 yrs of bf and gf and still no ring? Was it yours or his idea? Well, to many details. Insecure people tend to want to have more control than they should. Same with overprotective ppl. And that hurts the other person, they don't realise it, but that hurts a lot. So he either mans up and takes the blow like a man, or runs away from this relationship. Also, breaking up over a simple trip is childish, this shit is done at 15-17 years old, not at grown up ages ffs. What is he? 10?? So, i suggest, if you really want to go on that trip, go regardless of his feelings. It's not like you are going to cheat on him, so it's just his insecurities bubbling up. If you do cheat on him, which i d... (1)

As a person who is very much like your boyfriend, I can say it is likely down to a few things. Jealousy, abandonment issues, control, or worried you'll cheat or he'll have a whole story played in his head about something happening. For context, my partner went away on holiday with her mum. Her mum paid for it. In my head I was angry as I didn't get a holiday and I'm the one who works full time, pays all the bills and would need to look after children in the school holidays whilst working too (they're my children, not hers, and live with me full time as they have no contact with their mum). I was also angry that she didn't immediately say she would take my kids as she always claims she wants to be a part of the family and her sister was taking her own children and leaving the husband at home, so in my head I really wanted that help and I didn't get it. So I had jealousy, anger over lack of support, and then there is my natural huge overthinking which inevitably will lead to something... (1)

Hey so I'm not a man, but - Your BF doesn't respect you, this is some controlling and borderline abusive behavior (restricting you from doing something harmless for no good reason, then gaslamping you into believing you're the bad guy) and you should go on the cruise and dump the BF. 'If you go I'll leave you' what a deal! Do it. This is manipulative behavior, by the way. He's being completely unreasonable and I'm sorry he's made you doubt yourself here. (2)
