Need to vent...just want to cry!

My significant other has gotten multiple massages...I've been experiencing pain and would LOVE one. I've mentioned it. Even asked him for a small rub but noooo way would that be ok.
Long story short, he had a massage today...didn't schedule a couples one. Hadn't known it was going to be a TWO HOUR massage so once I finally heard from him at 7*30ish I txted his sister 'just heard from him...said he had a 2hr massage. Blah.'
But of course I accidentally sent it to him and he instantly txted back assuming I was accusing him or something and that I don't trust him!
Oh my gosh...I'm in such an awful mood. He said he doesn't know when he will be home because he's hurt that I don't trust him? Wtf. I just don't want to fight. Am I over reacting? I'm not sure what to do.
Sorry for the random rant...I needed to get it out. So frustrated.

  • I agree. It's so hard. Standing up to him can be so difficult...he's so hard headed. But I completely agree. I need some pampering! And yes...before vday...it's awful. Who knows what tomorrow will be like =\
    I don't mean to sound so depressed! I just needed to express this situation. I'm glad I've not done anything wrong ! I just am so confused as to why he took my txt so wrong! Aaahhhhhh
  • It's extremely weird. Not to mention he had one a week ago...
    I was not really thinking too much but since he blew up at me for accidentally sending a txt to him and not his sister and taking it soooo wrong now I'm just confused. He's not been home. Said he's at casino...and sent me a txt saying not to worry because he's not cheating? Aaahh I'm so hormonal and so not needing this =\
    Thanks for the responses. I need help I guess sorting this out. I have a rough time standing up for myself to him.
    An elaborate Vday would be amazing. It's been awhile since I've been treated to something.
    I mean he supports me and loves me...but selfish if that's what you want to call it.
  • @Babybarlow2014
    I agree.. Not a good feeling. Especially when hormonal and a million things go through your head.
    At least I dint feel alone tonight. Cuddled with my pup and baby is awake =) can feel him moving
  • @Babybarlow2014
    Thank you but it's not your fault! But thank you. I appreciate the sensitivity. I'm glad I've got some support here =)
  • So he left you home after the massage and went to the casino?  Yeah, you just don't do that!  Your man sounds like an ass!

  • Hunny put your foot down. The only person that should be getting 2 hour back massages is you. And if he isn't going to pay for them he should at least be giving them to you. Also running away to the casino when you have a child on the way, he needs to grow up. He sounds selfish. I'm sorry he's putting you through this, but put your foot down. I personally wouldn't let him come home till he got his priorities straight. Good luck, hopefully he'll realize he's being a jackass and start putting you first!
  • Does anyone else think it's weird this SO is scheduling 2 hour massages and not telling his pregnant girlfriend about them? OP I am sorry you have to deal with this. Hope you get to the bottom of it and here's hoping this is all part of an elaborate V-Day plan.
    I was thinking it was weird. Especially since its often.
    And that he's so defensive about it.
  • Is he 3? Cause it sounds like he has a lot of growing up to do if he's going to be a dad.

    Men who blow up and act defensive do it because they are guilty of something. Sounds fishy. And why the hell can't you get a massage? He's so insecure that not even a professional RMT can touch you? I would never tolerate any of this behavior. He sounds manipulative and controlling.

    I have to say I agree with all of the above. The fact that he got SOOO defensive over text u meant to sent to his sister sends all sorts of red flags flying for me....

    You need to think long and hard about you feel you and your baby deserve. The behavior can only continue if you allow it..... Although I know that is somethig a lot easier said then done.

    Sorry if this comes across as hard or insensitive.. I feel bad for you.. And many of my other girlfriends.... I sometimes don't understand girls and why they let certain things happen.. Or don't see things for the way they really are (this May not apply to u..)

    The puppy always helps!!! I love having my pup to snuggle when DH pisses me off

  • You have every right to be upset. This is driving me crazy just thinking about it. Hoping you both figure out what is going on, and today is a much better day for you. Vent away!
  • Is it actually relevant that this happened the day before Valentine's day?

  • Go get a massage girl.
  • I agree with PP. Red flags for sure. Why is he getting so defensive? If he wasn't doing anything wrong, why couldn't he just say where he was, and that he was being a selfish douche? And then he turns it around on you? Nope nope nope. I'd be getting to the bottom of that situation pronto, and confronting him about his behavior. I hope you find some answers and get yourself a wonderful massage!

  • I agree with PPs. He's an ass and then to go to the casino.. I'd be making sure he couldn't get back into the house.

  • My DH and I are blessed with a fantastic Mom (my MIL)z After my father passed she got us a year membership to massage envy. So I dont think it weird to have your BD get a massage it's that fact that it was 2 hours, and he got defensive over it and didn't come home. It sounds like you may also not have trust and I'm sure you have your reasons. I sure hope he does something over the top for you today. But I think you two need to sit down and talk about how you deserve to be treated better. He's only response should be " yes I agree and I will try my hardest to change". Don't let him minipulate you!
  • 1 word: Shady. 

    Sorry, OP, you (and your LO) deserve to be treated better. 
  • It really sounds shady to me and to be honest it sounds like he's up to something he knows he shouldn't be doing. And honestly if he was really worried about it he wouldn't be at no casino, he'd be trying to talk to you about the the whole situation. Y'all need to have a real serious talk and figure out what's really going on because to me it sounds like there is waay more to the story. Good luck and I hope everything goes well 
  • Wow what a douche! Sorry!
  • I don't like to jump to the he's doing something shady but really seems off that he goes for such a long massage and then brings up cheating himself. Why don't you just book yourself a massage and go to it without him?

  • Whether he's innocent of cheating or not is irrelevant - he still shouldn't be acting like that and making you feel bad. If you want a massage, go out and get one!

  • Yeah....taking the fact that he sounds super shady for being so defensive about you trusting him...I think it's a TOTAL DOUCHE move that he a. gets massages frequently without you and b. goes and gets a 2 hour one without really telling you he is doing it.

    If I were you I would book a massage and flip him off.
  • The only men I know who get massages go to super sketchy places for them, KWIM? Except, I'm pretty sure they don't go for two hours so there's that. OP, sorry your H is a douche.

  • Yeah, the defensiveness is definitely a big giant red flag. That would upset me more than the massage.

    Sounds like either there's something fishy going on or your SO needs to do some major growing up fast before Your LO gets here!

    Either way, I recommend sitting down and hashing it out before it gets too out of control.

     








  • I'm really sorry you're going through this, but you do have a choice. I know it's difficult to see that after being with such a douchebag for awhile--we sometimes begin to think we don't have a choice and don't even deserve more. But you do. And at this point, even if you don't believe it for yourself, believe it for your baby. Your baby deserves more than a shady ass dad who doesn't put his family's needs before his precious "massage" time. I'm divorced and I know there are other women on this board who have kids from previous marriages and/or have stepkids from their H's previous marriages... it's entirely possible to find a great guy who will love and support you and your baby. Hugs.

  • It sounds like you need to research Narcissistic Personality Disorder and learn how to deal with being married to someone with this issue. I've been there...

    With no update, I'm left to worry about her... but I'm a worrywart.

  • Thank you ladies for you concern and responses! I do appreciate it. It's def a difficult situation... He came home and slept on the couch. He was sweet on valentines day, but we do need to still talk. I'm just so bad at it.
