Annoying Boyfriend Gets Stunned After Insisting On Tagging Along Repeatedly For The Girls' Night In

Girls' night out is supposed to be a time for ladies to relax, have fun, and let their hair down without worrying about boys. It's a time to be carefree and enjoy each other's company.

Sometimes, it can be a chance to vent about boys and everything they do wrong. But if your boyfriend or husband is tagging along, then it kind of defeats the purpose, don't you think?

Nothing ruins a good girls' night quite like a partner who just won't take a hint and leave them alone. It's not that they don't love their men, but sometimes, ladies just need some time away.

One woman decided to take matters into her own hands when her boyfriend just wouldn't leave her alone on a girls' night out. She shared her story on Reddit in the AITA thread, explaining her ordeal.

The woman starts by taking a shot at her boyfriend, saying that he always wants to tag along whenever she goes out with her friends. In her words, it made her and the girls "miserable."

My boyfriend (27M) started asking to join me on my girls' night in. Every time I tried to say no, he would say, "I have to join, or you'll have to cancel." It made me and the girls miserable having to sit there with him in the middle.

So, on one of their outings, she devised a plan to make him stop once and for all.

This past Friday, he insisted on joining us again. I had enough, so I came up with an idea to get him to hate hanging out with us. I made a plan and told the girls what we were going to do, and they were down for it.

Let's look into the details of the story:

The author tried several times to prevent her boyfriend from tagging along for girls' night out, but to no avail. So, she and her friends decided to make him uncomfortable.

Girls' nights are always better when they can enjoy them without worrying about a guy trying to spoil the fun. It's safe to say this guy learned his lesson and won't be tagging along on a girls' night out again!

What's your opinion of how the author handled the situation? Do you think she could have taken another route rather than grossing her boyfriend out?
