Someone I know has bought tickets for the Swansea cup game, one of which being for me which is all paid for now. I told him not to, but he did it anyway, and now I feel obliged to go with him. It also makes his weekend when we go to the football together so that heightens the guilt. I was actually going to donate to the mind charity, because I have a couple of mental health problems so it's something I feel strongly about. I guess I could still do that since I'm not paying for the tickets, but I'll feel weird going to the game given that I wanted to boycott, but someone else made the decision for me to go for me, albeit with the best of intentions. I think I'll probably go, but I'll feel very weird about it!
That's a doozy, lovey. A particular pickle. A convoluted conundrum. The most important thing is that you respect yourself. Don't do anything that you're not comfortable with. Remember you're in control and no means no if you want it to mean no. Nobody should force you to do anything that you don't want to do. It's important to set your own boundaries and do what's right by your inner light of warming self-actualisation. Tell yourself that you are you and remind yourself that you are a special, special person and you deserve to follow your dreams towards your realm of self-satisfaction. Alternatively, just ****ing go. Someone else is paying and only a twat lets his mates down. Plus, I guess it'll be pretty empty and the lads might appreciate the support.
Wear a protest tshirt and take a banner. You ain't paid, moneys already spent. Use it as an opportunity.
I have a pass that includes cup games, but I'm not going and I've donated more than the ticket cost to Mind. It's only one game.
As long as you don't spend any of your own cash on the pies, I can't see a problem.... Just make sure you're in full voice at 19:04 with the other suckers that pay for the privilege of doing that.
I'd hate to have some of you lot with me in the trenches, a boycott has been called, you either stay away or forever be known as a scab.
You wouldn't like me in the trenches, I'd just as quickly shoot everybody around me as I would the enemy. Then I'd fly down to Cornwall and just crash into the sea in a big ball of flames.
