So every year that my husband and I do midnight mass with my family the women go to midnight mass. This year however I was the only one who wanted to go, I had already discussed midnight mass with my husband only to ge a stream of vitriol about how he didn't go to church, so why the hell would he want to go at Christmas fair enough, no would have done it had reached a point on the Christmas Eve afternoon where family members had begrudgingly said they'd come with me if really wanted to go, because I am apparently not capable of going by myself at 26 but they clearly didn't want to go. I had some friends who were going to midnight mass anyway, so I asked if could go with them, thereby saving family members from going when they didn't want to. My family all seemed happy about this, it's a situation in which everyone wins.
However, my husband heard the results of this conversation: his translation of the whole affair I'm not going to midnight mass with family I'm going out with friends on xmas eve and abandoning him and my family. He was and still is under the impression that I was entirely unreasonable to have gone with friends and should have dragged him along even though he didn't want to go because he'd have gone and fucking hated every second of it out of the kindness of his own heart.
AIBU to think that going was entirely reasonable?
