If you have to cancel a trip with your bf for medical reasons, and he gets mad, is that okay?

Question

I had a trip booked with my bf, but I was later notified to do a medical procedure that would wipe me out for the entire weekend. I told him to cancel because it would be physically taxing and I would be in a lot of discomfort if we went. He got mad. And was also upset about having to pay the non refundable service fee. Is this ok? Just want other people’s perspective

Accepted Answer

I’d get upset, but not at you. More of a disappointment really that the trip got canceled.

Answer

No? I’m shocked at how many woman say it’s okay to be upset. I’m a male, if I were with someone who got sick I’d be upset about the money if I can’t get it back but shit, you’re sick, he should sit there and stroke your hair and tell you you’re pretty... that’s ridiculous to me.

Answer

I mean he has to still pay for it so that sucks. I’d be bummed.

Answer

Well I’d be annoyed I lost the money and couldn’t go but I’d understand it wasn’t your fault and wouldn’t direct it at you.

Answer

Last month my partner and I were going to go to Venice. We were so excited and had everything planned and booked, and then he got really sick. I didn't even think twice about cancelling, even though we only could get half the money back, because even though Venice is amazing his wellbeing is the highest thing on my priority list. No one chooses to get sick or need a surgery or have any sort of health related problem, so him being mad really shows what he values most, and it doesn't seem to be you.

Answer

I can understand being upset about the money but he shouldn't be taking it out on you

Answer

It’s not okay for him to get mad but I also think that you should’ve paid the fee.

Answer

I think it depends on the medical procedure that is being done really. With the way you word it, it doesn't sound like it's an emergency procedure and that you could have easily changed the appointment to another date.

Answer

I know I’d be really upset if i was in his position. 
But it would be disappointment, more than anything. And I’d get over it. Especially if it was a medical reason!

Answer

My husband and I had to cancel our entire honeymoon because his father got really sick. We were bummed but not mad...shit happens, get over it.
