I recently came back from a holiday abroad with a big group of friends. We went to a festival out there and we are keen to go again next year.
I mentioned this to my boyfriend and he's told me he doesn't want me to go again next year. Part of the reason he doesn't want me to go is because we are thinking of going away for a week next year and he wants to go away the same month the festival is. Another reason is because he's unhappy with me being surrounded by alcohol and drugs again. I think he was worried about me getting stupidly drunk and cheating on him even though I never get in states where I don't know what I'm doing.
I have done drugs in the past which he knows about and has never expressed an issue with. Its mostly been MDMA and weed which he has done in the past. I understand him not being overjoyed about me going on that type of holiday but I had a lot of fun out there with my friends and it was mostly due to the music and sunshine rather than getting drunk etc.
I asked how he'd feel if I went to a different festival abroad and he said he'd still be unhappy but wouldn't be able to stop me. I really want to go to the festival I went to this year again but I don't know whether I'm being selfish and unfair on my boyfriend for wanting to go. The reason I feel unhappy is because my boyfriend knew I went to festivals and raves before we got together and never said it was an issue and now I feel like I'm having to compromise a part of myself.
Should I try talking to him about it again or just accept I won't be going next year?
