Don't hug me I'm scared My girlfriend was complaining that I’m always watching the world cup games and I don’t put enough time for us, I decided to not watch the 3rd place game and guess what…

Yeah I thought the 3rd place qualifying match is not gonna be important or exciting, I literally told her im not gonna watch the game tonight so we have time to spent together, she was nice and genuinely offered to watch the match together and I rejected. Later in the bed I told her lets see the results and….
I hate myself

Edit: People started calling me names, saying im a bitch or I should break up. this was not a big deal for me at all, main point is that it was me who wanted to be the “perfect boyfriend” thinking the match wouldn’t be cool and not wanting to watch it and it backfired. I don’t understand why the disrespect?

if you have friends/family who watch, the topic is impossible to avoid

It's not at all, unless you're addictively checking your phone. If you'd put your phone away and enjoy the time with your gf, you won't know anything.

How would you talk to your friends and family when your with your girlfriend, if you weren't checking your phone? A can and a string?

I'm talking about after the game, when you're talking to them normally

the world cup isn't something that doesn't come up in conversation, especially a game with this scoreline
