<human>: I've got a friend that really wants to come to a music festival this summer (a whole group of us are going) but he/his family unfortunately can't afford it. I on the other hand have enough money to spare to buy him a ticket. However he doesn't accept anything or any offers of help from anyone and I feel if I ask him if he wants a ticket he'll say no unless I say that I won it/managed to get it for free.

He's a great person and I'd personally love to have him there which is why I'm happy to buy the ticket. Is it wrong to lie and say that I won a ticket and that I'd rather he had it? I'm really not sure whether it's OK.

Can you succinctly summarize the text in 1-3 sentences?
<bot>: He wants to come with us to a festival, he can't afford it but I can. He doesn't want help or anything from anyone else so should I say I won it?
