Husband vent.....

Hey Ladies,

Ah DH vent.......

So to give you a little background. A month ago we planned to take our LO's to a family attraction. Bought tickets online. Everything was scheduled. 2 days before "our family" outing. DH decided to accept free concert tickets for himself, with this parents, his best friend, my best friend and her sister to go to a concert. I was waiting to see if he would feel awful in doing this and nothing came up. So the following day I brought it up and it turned into an argument no less. So it was a day and a half of us going back and forth about this. My whole thing to Dh was that " I felt as if he ditched us".

last minute he decided to change the timing of us going from afternoon til morning so then he wouldn't feel so awful. However, another family and their children were coming with us as well. After all the back and forth, he came with us and on the way home wanted I and the kids to drop him off at the concert for the tailgating. He is now at the concert. He didn't call to say good night to the kids or even to check in at all.

How would you feel?

I'm so frustrated & angry but more than anything feel saddened seeming that his priorities seem out of sorts!

Wow.  I would be sooo angry.  We rarely fight, but that would do it for me. You are nice to have not run him over after dropping him off.

Not cool for so many reasons, not least of which would be the fact that he didn't invite me to come along.

Hmmm well this would never turn into an argument between H and I, because he would never do something like that. Family always comes first in his book. He has his guy time but if a family event is scheduled, he would never think twice about ditching us. Sorry but your H sounds like kind of an Ahole.

Why did you wait a day to bring up the fact that he accepted tickets?  I'd be like, remember honey?  We're going to the amusement park.  Already spent the money.  We are not free this weekend.  Then it would be end of story.  If DH tried to push me on that, I'd say we have problems.

I would have been fine with dropping my DH off at the concert. We had family time, and he deserves some time for himself too. I would not have liked it if he had chosen the concert over the family outing, but I would try to make it possible for him to do both. He would do the same for me, if there was something I wanted to do.
