    Basically a friend of mine is getting married in october in the states which i said i would go to but now my girlfriends cousin is also getting married in the UK on the same date and she is doing her nut in cause she wants me to go with her cause all her family will have their other half with them. this situation is pissing me off, is she being a bit selfish here or am i? should i just go and book my flights to the US?

    Getting married in the states an expensive jaunt.

    You might be close but its a huge expense etc.A guy will understand but how close are you.

    However, girlfriends cousin thats her gig and not yours and you have no obligation to attend if you have a previous engagement.

    I would probably expect my g/f to respect my decision.

    If you agreed to go already then I think you should go to your friends wedding, your girlfriend should understand.
    Your girlfriends cousin will not notice your absence but your friend will!

    She is way out of line expecting you to dump your friend, to make up the numbers for some cousin of hers.

    Go to your friends wedding. Your girlfriend is being completely unreasonable.
    It's kind of sad if she can't make it through a wedding without you...she has her family for goodness sake.

    If it was her brother or sister it would be different, but it is not, it is her cousin. 2 years ago my brother in law and one of my favorite cousins had a wedding on the same day in different countries - I had already agreed to go to my cousins wedding but with regret had to cancel to go to my brother in law's wedding. I do think that she is being unreasonable in this case.
