I’m turning 19 and it’s my golden birthday. I’m very close with my family and I love them and have spent every birthday with them so far. However this birthday I just want to go to the beach with some college friends 90 min away. AITA?

No, it’s your golden birthday and it’s your last birthday before your 20s. Youve spent every birthday with them for almost 20 years. They shouldn’t be mad

Didn’t know golden birthday was a thing, but if they are insisting on going, it’s probably because they’re worried about you and expect everyone to get intoxicated as college students do. I would either go into a deep discussion about this with them, as it’s most likely just parental love, or let them come with as long as they let yall party.

no you’re getting older and part of getting older is wanting to spend more time with your friends doing things ppl your age do. plus you’re only 90 mins away, they could come for dinner the day of your birthday maybe and then just let you spend the rest of the weekend with your friends?

Forgot to answer, not the asshole, most likely a misunderstanding.
