Why my boyfriend doesn't want to include me at New Year's Eve?

Luciart

Hello everyone,

My boyfriend and I are together for a little more than a year, now.

Last year during the Holidays, we barely knew each other, since a month. So he celebrated New Year's Eve with his friends, inviting them at his home for a party.

Since then, our relationship got more serious throughout the whole year. We celebrated our one year anniversary last month.

I was expecting that I would be with him this year to celebrate New Year's Eve, with or without his friends, whatever. I just want to share this special moment with him, for the first time.

We had a long talk about it the other day when he admitted that he had been thinking about it for 2 weeks and that he didn't know how to tell me about it. He said that the first thing that came to his mind was to invite me along with his friends and share something. But then, he thought about it and said that it would not be a good idea.

He said he is afraid to introduce me to his friends at such an event. He said that he would not have as much fun if I was there. Also, we never shared any parties together yet, and is afraid how things could turn with alcohol etc as it is something he experienced with one his exes that he made cry. In the meantime, he said he would feel guilty to leave me alone on New Year's Eve and have fun with his friends.

I am very saddened by this and I told him. I have to say that I don't have much friends to celebrate anything and wanted to share this event with him... It didn't seem so obvious for him.

He hasn't contacted me since 3 days now, since our long talk about it and I just feel so offended and empty. I was already feeling low as I am experiencing difficulties in my job, and now this...

What do you think about this whole situation?

Thank you a lot.
