    Break up trip.

    My boyfriend, well ex-boyfriend now, and I of 4 years just recently decided to break up a week ago since we had been having bad communication issues and a lot of jealousy problems. Things just kept escalating so we decided that it's best to go our seperate ways for some time instead of staying together and things getting worse. Just let things air out and if we are meant for each other we'll find our way back. This is both our first long term relationship, our first love. So we're both not sure on how to handle things. We're learning as we go. The thing is I had purchased Dodger Spring Training tickets for three games, two separate weekends, for us as a Christmas gift. We were going to make a drive out to AZ with some friends who are also going, and we had plans on splitting a hotel room. I'm just not sure whether it's a good idea or not anymore. He and I really want to go, as the die hard dodger fans we are. This would have been our first spring training, and we were both stoked about the trip. I don't know if there will be tension still since the game is in 3 short weeks. I also don't want to make it awkward for the other couple going and I don't want him to feel like I'm pushing the relationship. He's handling this break up a lot better than I am, i feel. I asked him if he still wants to go or if I should sell the tickets. We both still want to go, although he says it's my decision since I was the one to purchase the tickets. We talked about it and I let him know we can go as friends and just hang out. I told him I would think about it and let him know. I don't want to put myself in a situation where things can possibly get worse, or a position where things go amazing and I get this sense of relief for nothing, if we're just going to our separate ways when we get back home. I also don't want to feel like I'm rewarding him with this trip since we just broke up and things were really bad for sometime. There's just a lot of emotions involved for me. And I'm not sure what to feel, or what to do nor think. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

    Well, you never know. Maybe by going without any pressure on the relationship, it would give a new set of eyes to the whole situation. Go as friends, remember what connected you two in the first place and regardless of what the result is, you either part amicably after a great trip or you re kindle the flame in the process. Could be good either way.

    You bought the tickets. Go have fun, no pressure, no expectations, just two people going to see the boys in action.
