I bought my(27) husband (27) two tickets to see his favourite band for his birthday last year, their concert is now sold out. Everytime I see my brother-in-law he talks about the band, how amazing they are, how important it was to him and his brother growing up and how important it is too see them live together. I'm not overly interested in the band and told him he can have my ticket for £80 which is the face value of a single ticket.
This wasn't the answer he wanted and he lost the plot screaming and shouting about how the tickets are already paid for and he shouldn't have to pay because I don't like the band and I'm just coming in between him and his brother.
He is right that I'm not particularly interested in the band however I'm not paying £160 + fees not to go to the concert, I love live music even if I'm not a fan of the band and a date night is a date night plus I love seeing my husband watching something he really loves.
So AITA for not just giving my brother-in-law the ticket for free because they're already paid for?
Update: My husband isn't aware of his brothers tantrum but he knows I said he could have the ticket for face value
