I amgoing to an event with A-list celebs, my boyfriend said he is not particularly excited.I am ecstatic?
I happened to win tickets to a huge A-list event.I know he may be excited deep down but I didn't like the way he was trying to burst my bubble of excitement when I was telling him about it.I also put his name on the invites, of course.He has really dampened my high spirits about the whole thing. I was so excited preparing and getting clothes and making appointments for my hair. He was saying calm down etc. and when I asked him if he was excited about the whole thing, he said not particularly. I felt soul destroyed. I want us to enjoy the whole experience. Everyone else I speak to is extremely excited for me.I am lost for words that he isn't excited for me. Even though he would never in a million years get tickets like these,and I know deep down that he is very interested in the whole thing. But I would like a thank you or some bit of excitement from him.He is a quiet guy and this whole trip is worth a lot of money.I would love if he was as excited as I was.Help?
ok i take your point he is not that impressed as me,,why then does he have pics of Paris Hilton and Pammie.
thanks for lal your answers. I feel much better now knowing that it is just a guy thing etc. I know when we get there he'll be so nervous with excitement!! He just trying to be cool. He said don't worry, I can stay dull and boring(he thinks he is dull and boring) and you can be all excited! Although he asked me if I can run up a carpet in my high heels.He is shy about walking up the red carpet so he wants to get into the place asap.lol. I'll be looking around hoping I'll see famous people and I will have a sense of humour about it.I will be going slowly up the red carpet.I want to talk to people there and enjoy the experience! If paris hilton is there and want to kiss him I'll whack her with my handbag! hehe only joking ;0)
Aw everybody. Thank You so much for your honest replies.You all have put my mind at ease. I was worried that he was trying to burst my bubble so to speak. I agree. Girls are just crazy when it comes to events like these. We are flying off staying a luxury hotel, and going to the event and aftershow party. I was just worried that we were starting to show a difference in personalities. But I do know that he is excited. Otherwise he wouldn't have taken the time off work at the drop of a hat to come.And he is still a sweetie. I made that clear to him last night, that I loved him even though our personalities are different. Hey now you all have put my mind at ease about the 2 of us, and it's time for me to get back to being excited!!!
After all you can't even buy these, I feel so lucky!!!
Thank You All.

You said it yourself. He us a quiet guy, and honestly, walking down the red carped could be very intimitading, specially for a quiet person. Men are not into "getting their hair done" either or "going shopping".... because he is a MAN! If he was crazy about getting his pedicure appointment, then he must be gay.
He must feel intimidated by the whole thing, don't take it personally.
Don't drag him to that if he doesn't want to go, ask him if you can take your sister or one of your friends instead.
Men are men, and women are women. You cannot expect for a manly man to give you advice on your attire sweetheart. He is just A MAN. If he was twisting your arm into getting you to go to a Tool Expo with top Tool experts, you wouldn't be as excited as him, wouldn't you? Think about it.
BTW, congratulations on winning. I'm green with envy. Enjoy it!
Best of luck

I understand how you would be excited. However, I also look at it from his point of view. I mean, it seems like you're going to great lengths to look your best for this event. When was the last time you purchased new clothes and made a special appointment to get your hair done to go out with him (minus the "A" list celebs)?? Women tend to get more caught up in the celeb thing. Guys tend to not be as impressed by that stuff. Now, if his favorite athlete was going to be there, he'd be excited. He'd be too "cool" to let it show, though. Also, he may feel like he isn't good enough for you compared to the celebs you seem so impressed by. Be aware of that and reinforce how much you care about him. Finally, he should be happy for you. My fiance once dragged me to a concert of a band that I hate, but, seeing how happy it made her really changed the experience for me. Is Britney going to be there? Maybe she could flash you....yuk!

Sometimes people don't like to show their excitement so if it doesn't happen or if they have a bad time they aren't let down. Men in particular don't like showing too much emotion about things especially about a party even if it involves celebrities. If he shows too much excitement you may not like that either, he will be around other woman (not to mention ones he has on his wall) that he finds attractive. Would you like it if he kept saying, "Oh, I can't wait to see Paris live and see her body etc. etc." I'm sure that would bother you. Just know he is excited inside and calm down and have a great time!!!

Well, celebs are really just people. They make more money and their jobs make them known to a lot of people, but they still get sick and they eat and use the toilet and all that money won't keep them from dying like the rest of us. But, this is special to you and if your boyfriend doesn't seem interested, then he can keep his dumb-@ss HOME and act like a boring guy instead of p!ssing all over your night.

It sounds like your boyfriend just doesn't get into the whole A-list scene. Don't throw it in his face too much that you are going - he probably feels like you might meet someone with money and leave him behind, and he is probably just worried.

LOL- sounds like just a guy- I am tough, I don't care about that stuff, type of macho crap. He might just not like your fussing about getting ready for it. I think once you get there- he'll change his tune. Make sure you bring your camera!!!!

Dump him and go by yourself.. Maybe you could hook up with a celeb and live a life of luxury.
