WizardofOz Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 Would you guys say that spending New Years Eve with your girlfriend/boyfriend is pretty much a definite must? I have been with my girlfriend for two months but I still feel as if I should spend it with her. Thanks for your opinions. Link to comment
SparkleDust Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 It depends really. I mean some people think new years eve is for family, others go out and get wasted. Mine has family from over seas here and is inclined to spend it with them. So if they werent here I would say it is a must. Link to comment
JeckyllNHyde Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 Hmm.. I don't feel you NEED to spend any special occasion (apart from anniversaries) with your bf/gf. However, I usually do end up spending it with my bf. Last yr we'd been dating for 2 months, and official for about 1 week, and he insisted on driving over to see me on New Years, even though all we did was sit in his car and talk. Sweet, and definitly made my night. But if he didn't want to come, I wouldn't have obligated him. This year is same. Link to comment
KarateKate Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 I think it depends on the situation, but I'm pretty sure that spending New Years with your SO is pretty standard. Link to comment

I'm thinking her group of friends will be having a small party and my group will be a big party. I have no problem spending it with her and her friends even if it is a more low key event. Hmm..

It wouldn't be an issue for me to be with her. It's whether or not she wants to mix her friends in with her relationship so early on. Link to comment
redhearts Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 For my sister and her bf, yes his birthday is ON NEW YEARS DAY. Link to comment
Botched Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 The general expectation is yes. Together. Any couple can decide otherwise, but I imagine that New Years Eve is one of the nights when people long to have a SO present. Link to comment

I do always long to have my SO to ring in the new year.. To bad I've never gotten to experience it yet. I always can't wait to call him and wish him a happy new year. But my dad always wants it to be a family tradition to be at home, with family at 12:00 Link to comment

catfeeder Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 Interesting question and makes me wonder why you're asking. You say that you think you 'should' but what do you want to do? You may not intend it this way, but it kind of sounds like you're saying: I've spent 2 months with her already, do I really have to give her New Year's Eve? If you don't want to, maybe you aren't really into her? In your corner. Link to comment

If you are seeing someone I think it is nice to spend New Year's Eve with them...not because of the whole hype of the kiss at the stroke of midnight...that's rather cliche especially since lots of people kiss everyone else at the stroke of midnight. It is more about new beginnings with your partner...celebrating the coming of a new year together and all the wonderful things that can be. Link to comment
hk87 Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 I won't be spending New Year with my SO, which will be sad. I've never really spent that special time with anyone He will be with his family and I will be with mine. Hk87 Link to comment

JeckyllNHyde Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 I really want to spend it with her but I get the impression that she can go either way.. it's no biggie to ask her. instead of asking her directly just ask her "so do you have plans for new years with family or friends already? otherwise we can do something together.."

Bingo! If you give her an 'out' and she takes it, then your guesswork is over. From there you can decide if you want to continue with a lukewarm relationship, or whether you're better off holding out for finding someone who's crazy about you. Everyone deserves to feel mutual interest in their relationships. In your corner. Link to comment

ghost69 Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 i wonder who i'm kissing on new years. Link to comment
ImThatGirl Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 I'm leaning towards staying home with my little ones. Maybe inviting a couple other little ones over. If I have my head set on kid party, then I can't fret about who I "didn't" get to see on New Years maybe. Not that there's anyone I truly care to see. Hm. Link to comment
