I really don't like golf and I've always found it was a huge turnoff for some reason when someone is interested in golf. Mostly because it is a rich people "sport" and because it's so expensive and terrible for the environment, but it may also be the type of person I've met who is typically involved or interested in it, which usually seems to be overweight middle-aged men who don't know what to do with their money and have little regard for women.
Either way, golf has always been a huge turnoff for me. I respect that some people enjoy it, I'm just really not into it and really not into ppl who enjoy it... usually.
My bf recently told me that he was getting a day off at work to go play golf with his coworkers. Without thinking, I responded a disgusted "ugh". I realize he was excited about it and didn't mean to rain on his parade, but for some reason the thought of him playing golf was a total turnoff!
He got all upset at my reaction and said that if I did something he didn't enjoy he would be happy for me and then guilt-tripped me by saying he wouldn't go.
I don't really understand his reaction. I don't expect him not to go just because I don't like golf, but am I supposed to pretend I like golf to please his ego???
What's going on here?
