I was at the gym earlier today and my friend said she wanted to do a girls trip in a cabin in the mountains and she kept dropping hints like she wanted me to come. I politely said “oh that sounds like it would be a nice, romantic trip for you and your man.” Lol cause girl I AIN’T GOIN’.

@@Price8903 Just curious, Are you a woman? Hormones are real. It is a real reason for moodiness and hypersensitivity. Not the process menstruation, the the PMS ( excess hormones). Many women do not like to reference it, because it is stigmatized by men, who use it to doubt and question women's abilities to lead. Mood swings are real, but just like depression and anxiety, can be managed. They needed to talk it out. The friend should apologize. But the other friend should not dismiss her like she is crazy. There are levels for her to be reacting that way.

Ladies, be mindful of the little red flags you tend to ignore. Trust your instincts! I have a friend like that now. At first she seemed so cool and non-judgmental, but it all changed when I had a mini glow up a few months ago. At first, she was impressed and complimented me often, but then I started noticing how she would stare at me a bit longer than usual. At first it seemed like she was admiring my new look, but now I'll catch her looking and she'll have this faith look of contempt. It'll disappear in less than a sec. It was especially obvious on new years. I went out partying with her. She kept staring at me the whole night. I've made a choice to distance myself. She is the type to wait for the right moment to throw you under the bus. And it'll be hard to confront her because she is seen as sweet, quiet, and nonproblematic. Be observant. Watch how people look at you when they think you don't see them. Pay attention to back handed compliments. Notice if they stay silent, look away, change the subject, or try to one-up you whenever people are complaining you. btw, don't take on of these clues and run with it. It's usually an amalgamation of everything I said.

It's just not that serious. It shouldn't diminish the trip.
I understand the woman’s frustration about not wanting her friend’s boyfriend and his friends visiting. I’m a firm believer in setting certain time and spaces just for your friends, family and yourself outside of your romantic partner. We don’t know the entire story, of course, but there’s a difference between a girls trip and a trip where you’re then inviting boyfriends, other men, etc. While she clearly did not address her feelings appropriately, i wonder if the friend ever asked if it was okay that her boyfriend and his friends visit? Idk I feel like when you add men to the mix or even other people who the trip was never intended for, especially without letting folks know ahead of time, you may be stepping on toes whether you intended to or not. EVERYONE displayed POOR communication skills. True friendship is about having difficult conversations but in a compassionate and loving way. Again, her behavior is out of line and she could’ve handled that so much better. At the same time, the other friend is clearly not understanding why her not communicating her boyfriend visiting is little inconsiderate of her friends.

How you feel justified trying to fight, your socalled friend over her decision to allow her boyfriend to come over on THE LAST NIGHT is beyond me. People need to stop trying to control the behaviors of other grown people with physical violence because even if you started out with a good point, it becomes a mute point because you acting like a wild hyena.

Js, no girl should ever go on a girl's trip and expect any male to be there. Likewise, no girl should go on a girl's trip and not be safe with her girls. And finally, no girl should even consider a girl's trip, if her man may possibly pop-up. Just do a couple's trip, and leave one night for hanging with the girls/guys. It's easy to avoid drama when one is intent on avoiding drama.

1000% facts! This is why you MUST have discernment! When you first start seeing the signs, either you confront them, and hopefully, they will change, but if not, then leave them alone!
This is why I ✂️ off and haven't looked back at relatives and so called friends in over 4 years because of no good, covert, jealous, demonic, haters that was rooting for my failure. I was the one that cheered and supported EVERYONE in my circle. I was that girls girl, loyal big sister/daughter, best neighbor etc. But got the opposite. I'm done!
What most likely happened is the girl videotaping bf told his friends that his gf had some attractive friends so they come along.They got to the house and started pushing up on the girls ,this girl may or may not have bf .Or simply could have been in uncomfortable position ,the girl recording probably said "oh girl u tripping have fun" or something like that.I know a girl who pulled a stunt like this but it was on her sister only thing different is her sister just entertained the guy and confronted her sister after.Lots of women will put their friends in uncomfortable situations to please a man ,some will even set u up to be raped.I see a lot people advocating for solo traveling but many women are careless when they go and let they guard down ,sex trafficking is real.Dont get drunk in another country or start hooking up with people.Find one good friend ,a trusted family member or partner to go with.

I wrote this in a reply, but for everyone to see here- I have been going on girls trips for 9 years since we all graduated undergrad cuz that's the only time I see most of my friends and we all LIVE for those trips, the best experiences and memories ever and if you have that opportunity don't give that up. There are 5 of us, been domestic and international, ain't lost a single woman or friendship and we even "survived Miami" where they say friendships go to die. It depends on you and the crowd, the vetting process, communication, knowing yourself, and what you want from a trip versus the women you are traveling with.

I do think the chick over reacted some BUT I do understand her being upset about the lady's man coming by and bringing other men. Last night or not if it's a Girl's trip why is he popping up when no one else's man popped up? He could have waited another day to see her in my opinion, unless he was there to pick her up and take her home. Then on top of that he's coming through bringing other men that the other women may not feel comfortable having around them, especially strangers. When I think of a Girls trip I think of a trip with all women just vibing and enjoying each other's company/ friendship for a few days. Having your man (;if you have one) just pop up randomly defeats the purpose. Again if he waited until the last day to pop up why couldn't he just wait another day when she got home to see her? Jealousy ain't always the reason.
I think you're missing the point. She wasn't being "hah-stel" because of jealousy. You have no idea if she's in a relationship or not. She was upset because the boyfriend showed up unannounced and uninvited, and with a couple unwanteds with him. He then obviously LEFT those guys behind! Didn't you hear her say "they're for you" when the "angry friend" was blowing a tantrum. It was a safety issue, nothing more. The woman filming was ghetto af.

And when you are the kind of person who seems resilient, always managing to spin yourself out of storms, always creating for yourself new opportunities, and you just won't seem to stay down despite their many efforts to speak tragedy into your spirit, they'll literally sit in the cut, waiting for a chance to push you over a cliff. It is sad because often some of you all know exactly who these people are and yet you keep them around you, trust them in isolated spaces, and you just won't cut them loose. You prefer to being on social media clapping and snapping off about who is jealous of you, and you know exactly who these people are. You cannot be friends with people who want your life.

I’ve been on many successful girl’s trips where my bf may pop up and bring us drinks, him and his friend may kick it with us for an hour then they leave. I’ve had situations were my friends bfs would do the same, there was never a problem. But there was this one situation, where my bf had been telling me about this friend of mine, but I wouldn’t listen. I went on a girls trip with her and three others. I was the only darker toned woman. We ran into these random Miami guys and it was all good until I start being shown the most attention. I wasn’t single, so I didn’t entertain it,. Once they left and we were headed back to the hotel, that girl talked so down about me saying, “they only liked you because you have a big butt, they probably thought you would be easy, etc etc etc. (She had been used to getting all the attention over me, which I didn’t mind because I wasn’t single, never phased me) but the one time I got attention over her she lost it. The night ended with me having to fight this girl and calling my bf to come get me. We’re no longer friends, but I am so much more cautious going only girls trips since then. It’s sad.

You "had to fight this girl".... see thats the mindset I can't get with. Please tell me it was just self defense? ?? Women...people... need to learn how to resolve conflict or leave before things escalate. No need to get physical.
I had to tell someone that I refuse to hang with folks who won't manage their mental health, past/current trauma & their emotions. We've all experienced some form of trauma in life & things that make us mad. If a person had experiences that negatively impacts how they respond to situations, but never even attempted counseling to manage it, then we simply aren't compatible... They can keep it moving. No more trauma bonding with perpetually broken souls that I really don't share any other similarities with, or dealing with frenemies who can't handle their personal insecurities, etc. People have a right to feel how they feel, but adults need to understand that their 'crazy' is THEIR responsibility to manage, and not the burden of those who befriended them.

I'm grateful my husband and I are each other's best friend. This is terrifying to watch.
4:43 she didn’t just “bring her man.” He brought his friends and you can clearly hear the girl recording say: “They were HERE for Y’ALL.” If it was just her man I don’t think she would’ve popped off as hard as she did. But it seems like the girl and her boyfriend propositioned her friends to these other men. And that can be a dangerous situation if these men come in thinking they’re gonna hook up and it doesn’t happen, it can go south. I don’t think the girl who wanted to fight was jealous of her having a man…cuz clearly a man was “brought there for her”. I think she was genuinely upset cuz her safety was compromised - especially on their last night.

This is why I do not do friendship groups anymore. I am only friends with individuals and that is it. I have experienced quite a bit and over time I realised it's about getting to know a person on an individual basis and not a group basis. If you do not know a person as an individual, or you do not feel comfortable being alone with that person do not. I REPEAT, do not invite them to a group setting especially to a holiday. *Get to know your friend as an individual, then you know if they qualify to go on holiday with you.*
I never knew things were that bad. SMH I'm a solo dolo person, especially when it comes to traveling. It even gotta be something for me to travel with family. I either travel by myself, as part of a program, or if it's funded by my job. Most I've done in the past was a road trip with my husband (at the time) and another couple that was made up of 2 of our very close friends/coworkers/neighbors. You definitely made a point about these competition friendships. Smh

If yall girls on a sincere note, this anger would not have even come out! That is to angry for anyone! True friendship is not anger and jealousy, it is respect, integrity and love, empowerment! Shit while her man was there, they could have chilled while he was there! If you know I got a man and he wants to come see me while we are out, that should not be a problem just cause he swinging thru on the last night! She either jealous cause she want her for herself or that she got a man! FUCK A GIRLS TRIP IF WOMAN ACT LIKE THIS! I am married and we do not hang around anyone,,,,he treats me beautiful and I have had bitches that call theirs elves my friends but jealous and wanted to fight me cause my husband treats me like royalty! And I definitely treat my husband like the Royal GOD he is even after 31 years, we still act like we just met! You cannot be around people that know you have a great relationship and they lonely, bitter and single, or not in a good relationship, fuck woman, all they harbor is jealousy because they are not in your shoes! They even tried to fuck my husband and they were not expecting him to tell me but he did and I dropped them bitches like a bad habit! Watch your company, be discerning, and if you are a woman with a pretty discent relationship, hang by yourself or with a couple that is happy and content with each other! Peace and Love! Oh yes and the ones that are not feeling what I just said, come on and come for me, I am Ready!!!!🤔
Y’all I’ve had my husband tell me about different women in my life. He told me about fake friends and even family members that low key were jealous of me. I didn’t want to believe but later found out. Also I remember going on a girls trip a total of three of us. I went with my BF at the time and she brought her other friend. Her friend would make comments about us getting all the attention. When she finally got some attention she was like finally 🤦🏽♀️ girls are so hard to be friends with sometimes. I’m 28 and have two friends but no best friends.
Everything you mentioned is what I was experiencing with one of these girls I was friends with. She would always do weird sh*t especially when men were involved, and always side eyeing me. My spirit never felt at peace once I called her out on her and she wanted to act like she never did me like that and never toke accountability for anything, it was really just time for me to cut her off! Thank God I trust myself and that I´m not oblivious to people's behaviour and treatment of me.
You are right on point; women are in competition with each other. I have 2 friends in my life, and I travel with one at a time. They don't even know each other. I have and will not ever travel with a group of women. Jealous and envy is real with people. They try to make you jealous talking about your man or try to sleep with him, or flirt etc. They see this crap on Bravo, Real Housewives of Potomac, DC, LAMH all those shows have woman acting in this way and those women think this behavior is acceptable. This crap reminds me of Bad Girls Club. Why would a person want to be around another person when they know how rude and crazy, they act? They think it cute or think it's a trend that will get them "LIKES" and attention on social media. SMH

Even if I wanted to go on a girl trip, I couldn't, because I don't have female friends like that. And I'll admit, I don't get along with other women, why? Because of all the obvious traits you mentioned. Plus I always get dreams warning me about someone or some friend I think is a real friend to me. Does that mean I like drama or cause drama? Nope. I'm very observant and when I notice someone acting different or being hateful or envious, I get rid of them. Plain and simple.

Shumake, please do a part 2 to this video. Everything you are saying is absolutely 100% true.
I will say this. You have to understand the season of friendships. Everybody has a time limit in your life. It's up to you to discern when that expiration is. This video was much needed. I can see both sides. If it was a girl's trip a simple conversation with her man would have been fine. I don't agree with the fighting and the behavior she displayed but I understand it to a point. If some men I didn't know just showed up without my knowledge I would be concerned for my safety. I guess that is why I operate solo. I don't have the time or energy to determine if you are really my friend or not.

looking at the comments someone said her man showed up with 3-4 men. To me the OP was gaslighting all of them and was provoking a response. How do you invite all of these strange men over on a girls trip and then record a video for your "safety" while featuring them in the background steps away from them and saying that "they were here for you". That definitely sounds like men that showed up with more than just their presence but wanted "something more". Obviously, she doesn't feel like she's in the wrong and isn't apologetic but if the person upset has been a victim of violence or r*pe there's just a lot of animosity that didn't need to be there. I have yet to travel solo but it's on the list. Sometimes the best company is yourself especially if the alternative is people who will sabotage your peace

It's for this reason , when I wanted to go back to Italy, I went back alone and travelled to venture other parts of Italy on my own . You can't trust these so-called " friends" these days. As a female traveller, I was scared at first cause if anything were to happen, I'm all I've got but fortunately, I did thorough research on how to move around to those places I wanted to go to prior to leaving. I also made sure I had enough cash in case of sticky situations. I did feel lonely here and there without a travel companion but I felt good overall knowing I was safe in my own company.
Some people will be in competition with you & you don't know it until you see the bullshit too late, and you've shared and cheered with and for them.
Every time I get into it argument with somebody the biggest comeback is " that's why you don't have no friends" I didn't feel bad then and I definitely don't feel bad now.

I commend you Brother!!! You are so insightful!!! I am a single woman and I don't have any friends because I can't take the jealousy, drama, and hate that comes from other "women." The sad part is, weaker women stay friends, because they still want to be able to go on girls trips or to the clubs, etc. So, someone like me, who doesn't have friends because I'm choosing not to be disrespected, doesn't go out, or on trips, and the result is, I never meet single men now. So it's a double-edged sword. I'm 41, and at this point, meeting someone and getting married is beginning to seem impossible 🤦🏾♀️

I had one where a friend of mines invited her friend to a trip we had planned previously. Needless to say, her friend made the focus of the trip about HER WANTS AND NEEDS. Things got a bit ridiculous. After that trip, I kept myself not going on any girl related trips.
First: Not everyone is jealous. If these are your true friends they've seen you go up, down, and sideways but they love and stick by you anyways. People need to know who they have in their inner circles: strengths and weaknesses to lean on one another and build one another up. That's each individual's responsibility. Some women have zero boundaries and zero backbone. They will morph every time they are in a relationship with someone. In addition to vetting friends: do a self assessment of yourself and correct accordingly. It's a scarcity mindset (that is present in both men and women). This mindset will have people competing for what they deem to be a limited resource: be it attention, opposite gender, money, or whatever a thing is. Clout chasing is so prevalent nowadays. I don't know the details of this situation but logistics of planning this trip should have been set before they all agreed to go. Logistics as to why they taking the trip, who's going, what's allowed and not allowed, dedicated time for the group, solo activities. Poor planning and poor communication lead to these problems Based off what I watched :The woman recording was IMO wrong for letting her man visit the air bnb on the women's last night of the trip. She violated her friends' privacy and their friendship especially if it wasn't agreed upon by the group to have visitors of the opposite sex.

In the video, the one recording said she told her friend ahead of time and she didn't have an issue with it. So it's not like she just popped up with random guys or the friend didn't know about the boyfriend stopping by and was surprised when he got there. If it was a surprise, that was on her and she should be held accountable but not to the point of wanting to fight. That's crossing a line. The girl was so mad she banging on the door and busted into the room to fight her. That's crazy that's something else going on with her.

Thank you for this video. You dropped so many pearls here, one that really hit for me was "people can't be happy for you if they aren't happy with who they are...because every time you are around you confirm how they feel"- THIS. This was the missing link for me. My challenge in the past was, I didn't know the "friends" I had weren't happy, I thought they were doing well because that's what they were telling me. They were always telling me about raises, promotions, new opportunities and I was a whole cheerleader for them so I had no reason to believe that I couldn't share good news with them or that they would feel a way about me being noticed, getting my own opportunities. I wonder how many other people were caught in messes because they didn't realize they had people around them who were saying things were great but how they internally feel is different.

I also wouldn't want my daughter subjected to that. The only reason he should've been there was because she felt threatened. 💯 He also brought friends too....that is not cool on a girls only trip.

Unpopular opinion but that girls vacay video I was torn about the issue they were arguing about.Tbh it’s annoying when some women bring men into all women spaces,and everything f is back to men.Sometimes you just wanna be with the ladies. Not everyone is comfortable being around strange men especially in a house you staying at so I’d be annoyed too if you set something up to just get away and be with the girls and there goes that one girl inviting guys around.I’d be annoyed too.It’s honestly annoying especially if you didn’t ask the other ladies.But that reaction? That’s was a whole different issue and complete over reaction.Legitimately over the top.At worse I’d advise leave the holiday early , at best leave them to it and talk to her then next day and if she doesn’t understand don’t holiday with her again. But you definitely need to know people you travel with ,family is best and only people you really know,especially if you not strong minded and can’t cut your losses at the first sign of odd shenanigans and it feels off.

Violence and hurting people as normal is a moment to moment reality of by and the domain of most women. Her simp the usual vehicle.
Advice well taken. The only girls trips I've ever went on were with my sisters and cousin, who was pretty much like a sister to us. Fortunately my sisters and I were close enough in age to be each other's best friends. As the old song goes, "keep an eye on your close friend."
What this man is saying is so very true. I have learned this the hard way...many, many times. Example 1: Went to the beach with a married family member whom i loved very much and had an almost mother/daughter relationship with. Even lived with her, her daughter and husband for years. We met ppl at the pool and SHE started talking to this guy that had the hots for me but I already told her I was uninterested but she acted suspiciously angry when I told her about this (fucboi) guy trying to get me to go home with him. I walked up behind them and heard her talking terribly about me to this guy, things that weren't even IN THE SAME TIMEZONE AS THE TRUTH. I spoke up and said "Kim...Why are you talking about me like this?" And told the guy to get lost. I catch him trying to go through our purses and stealing tylenol pm of all things. I physically shove him and threatened calling police. He left me alone then. So i turned back to her and repeated my question. Instead of an answer she grabbed a handful of my hair, wrapped it around her wrist and jerked so hard my neck made this disgusting loud pop. She had my face pulled down to my knees. I didnt want to hurt her, i loved her, she was my idol so i tried to talk sense to her "You dont want to do this. We love eachother. Let go of my hair. I dont want to have to hurt you. Im gonna have to hurt you." And then i slammed her into the wall where she still didnt let go and dragged me down as she went. So i had to hit her. She held on still. I choked her in a very awkward way. She let go. I cried and barricaded myself in my room and had to call a friend to rescue me from 2 states away . Example 2: a "friend" i had for years and saw regularly begged me to go to the bar out of town. I didnt want to go, i told her i was under 21. She said they wouldnt id me and i looked old enough to drink and continued to beg. So i went. I wasnt dancing, trying to get a buzz going first. A guy asked me to dance. I told him i didnt feel like it right now. My friend, her name is Amanda, asked me what he had said to me. I told her that he asked me to dance and i said no. Her eyes widened and she looked furious and little quiet mousy Amanda that cant look anyone in the eye yells "ARE YOU F*CKING KIDDING ME??? You're a dirty motherf*cking wh*re, you ALWAYS PULL THIS SH*T!!!" The "guy" saw what was goin on and asked her wtf was happening. She then commenced to puring a drink on him and cussing him out. Then she turned to the bartender, a female bartender so i knew the fun was over, and told her I was 17. I was over 18, therefore allowed in the bar but not allowed to drink. But they believed her and kicked me out in the middle of an unfamiliar area, by myself and I had no car because I rode with her. All because she was jealous a guy, a complete stranger to her, asked me to dance. Example 3: A friend of 10 or more years insisted I come to her housewarming keg party. I paid someone to drive me because my car had been stolen at this point (by another supposed "friend" fml). Mind you, she called several times to make sure I was coming and not gonna bail. Seemed like she really wanted me there. (Info you need to know: I used to have a pain pill addiction and smoke weed. Never in lisas home though bc I respected non-users homes with or without being asked. I had been for about 5 years at this point.) Anyhoo, I walked into the party, was greeting everyone and introducing myself to others when lisa comes out angrily and loudly accusing me of "smuggling drugs" into her home. I assure her, calmly, i havent touched drugs in many yrs and when i did-i never brought them into your home. You can search my purse if it would make you feel better." I was so hurt, embarassed and confused. At that moment she expells something like a battle cry and runs at me like a possessed football player ready to tackle me. Her husband grabs her and holds her down as she almost reaches me and hes screaming at me to "GO GO GO" to me. So i go. out his house, into the rain, without a car until I reached service area. I have so many more of these so-called-friend stories. Ladies, dont trust your friends.
Vet 👏🏾 your 👏🏾friends 👏🏾…simple as that. Excellent advice!
You make a very good point about ulterior motives when it comes to girl/guy trips. While you’re here to relax and get away from the daily stresses of life, your friend might be here to kick up a hornets nest of trouble. Nobody tells you that in when they are trying to convince you to go on the trip…that’s why the motive remains ulterior till you get there. You really have to be discerning about who you do stuff with and why. Some folks don’t need a trip, they need counseling.
Well said! My humble opinion is that people should just go with close bonded family members.

I went on a solo trip to Hawaii for my 29th birthday! I had the best time in the world and I met the most amazing people! I have also traveled most of the US alone! However if you do travel with people travel with those you know without a doubt you are safe with you have to pay attention to peoples character, aside from that I do not like the other woman recording herself as if she was going to be hurt! I don’t like her insinuating a Shanquella Robinson situation, that girl brought men over where another woman did not feel comfortable who knows if her safety was compromised and no one knows what could’ve happened to her so it is nothing in comparison to Shanquella Robinson. She put her friend in a compromised situation, she could be a victim of rape and being ambushed by men could’ve triggered her! I remember Having my first apartment in my Junior year in high school Roommating with a senior, i’m at home with three of my best friends since childhood washing dishes in my kitchen with a T-shirt and my underwear on, next thing ,pretty much the entire football team walks into my home and sees me and I felt completely disrespected and uncomfortable, she didn’t let me know they were coming and I was put in a compromise situation because she allowed all these guys to come into our house and I’m not even properly dressed! I had to explain to her how unsafe it was to allow all these guys into our home we are in high school we are young and it wasn’t a safe thing to do! That being said We don’t really know the full dynamic of the situation but is easily shown that the girl was put in an uncomfortable situation and she responded the way that she did, people act like they wouldn’t get upset if they felt uncomfortable or unsafe!
Spot on message, brother. Friends are hard to come by. Isn't it funny how we aren't formally taught how to make friends or be a friend in school? Something this important you would think there should be classes out there that we're required to take.
Like the old timers would say, Not everybody is your friend. Alot of times we just know alot of people but true friendships nowadays, is very scarce and becoming more rare.
That’s a crazy situation! You are so right about all 4 one & one 4 all! That was our motto too back in high school & college when we went out! Damn shame 🙌🏾
You are SUCH a GENTLEMAN......NO CORRECTION- A KING!!! OMG!!! Wish you much HAPPINESS and keep educating the BROTHERS!!!
My friends and I never did this. When we went out we all was having fun. Even when was single we didn’t act like this, that’s childish. But nobody was ever in competition. If you have to argue during your trip the trip is shot it’s over I’m going home. Sis mad because ole girl trying to get some D. Yea she ain’t your friend.
There are many women with bad and inconsiderate habits. There’s 2 reasons i don’t go on girl trips. 1.) They usually like to involve men we don’t know 2. I feel like unnecessary money is spent on things that I may not want to even participate in.
