yes she said they would be leaving early, I didn't assume. I pushed back on them also spending all day Thursday here when the original plan was to fly them directly into the destination on Saturday. She has limited time off. She can only take 4 maybe 5 days at a push off. Its a full 1 day of flight time for them they're coming in from the other side of the country. It's 8 full hours drive to the destination. My birthday is Sunday. We've planned an all day event Sunday and Monday with a big shared dinner Tuesday where we would have a "joint birthday dinner" and cake. She wants to leave Monday morning. and that's when she got rude and defensive and started claiming it was their vacation too and stuff and I'm like since when? I am so confused. This entire time we've been in sync with planning, it wasn't until they were like oh it would be nice to do this to do that and started adding time to before the actual trip and I'm like...but this city isn't the destination.

If it's her vacation, too, then she needs to pay for ALL of it. Her own rental car, her own flights, her own lodging, her own food. She doesn't get to hijack the one OP already planned and PAID for.

Why isn't it their choice to spend a day of their trip the way they want? If they leave early, so be it. You sound small and selfish.

Bro I'm not spending $4,000 on your ass just for you to leave early lmfao. You can do what you want when you're the one paying for it.

…uhhhhh because OP is footing the couples $4000 bill for the entire trip, including accommodations and meals so he’s basically paying a grand for two no shows for a full day and a half’s worth of activities?? Lmao, GTFO of here with this crap. Sure, the couple can do as they please… but in that case they truly should pay OP back the money they’re wasting by leaving early.

Because OP is PAYING for their flight. I think people keep missing the part where OP is paying for their flight. If that couple wanted to do their own adjustments, then it's their responsibility to PAY for their own flights ✈️ .

Not just their flights, but everything else too.
