A man has been branded an 'idiot' after revealing he's taking his female best friend on a lavish trip - and leaving his upset wife at home. Going by the false name Dylan online, he revealed he had forked out on pricey Formula 1 tickets and flights for himself and friend Angie as it was her 'favourite' sport, while his wife Emily was totally left out of the plans and now giving him the cold shoulder.
While he blasted his wife for being 'insecure', he doesn't understand why she wanted to join the pair on the trip as it was something he'd organised with his pal since they were teenagers. Dylan thought he'd got the ideal set up, as his wife Emily had been 'totally fine' about his female best friend Angie, who was even the 'grooms woman' at their wedding and introduced the pair when they first met nine years ago.
"I've been friends with Angie since we were 15 years old. When we were still teenagers, she picked up smoking from her friends, but she didn't do it much and said she knew the risks and wanted to stop," he detailed in a Reddit post as reported by Metro, and said as an 'encouragement' to make her stop he made her a deal.
"We both share a love of cars and motorsports, so the deal was that if she never picked up a cigarette again, I would fly us out to and get grandstand tickets for her favourite F1 race," and noted that his wife Emily had "always known" about the pact. But then 15 years on from the deal, Dylan finally had the 'money and time' to book the trip.
However it seemed as if Emily had forgotten the details of the pact, as Dylan said: "I had always thought it was known that the trip was going to be just me and Angie as per the deal we made ages ago. I mentioned [it] and my wife had zero problems with it. Then a couple days ago my wife mentions how she’s so excited for the trip and I gently let her know that I have only booked two tickets for the race and flights.".
