A few years back I trained in karate. Got quite high up the belts and then quit as my arsehole partner at the time got all jealous, insisted that the instructor fancied me, made it not worth the hassle going etc.
We split up (thank fuck) but I never did go back to karate and have regretted it ever since.
I'm now with another man, lovely on the most part, been together almost 3 years. He's always supportive of me going on nights outs and always encourages me to socialise, even offering to pick me up, drop me off, take my friends home etc etc.
So when I mentioned going back to karate I didn't think it would be an issue for him. He wasn't keen however saying that as we both work full time etc we'd never see each other - especially if I got all involved with the organisation like I did last time (officials courses, first aids, competitions, ferrying kids back and forth and basically babysitting at public events). I assured him that this time it would be a case of twice a week training, 4 hours a week max. He eventually agreed.
Since I went back however (to a different club) he's got all funny about it saying that I'm getting too involved again and that the instructor is too pushy with me and "seems to have other motives" I have always brushed it off but this wasn't helped last night when, after recovering from a rather steamy sex sesh DP and I were laid in bed at 11.45pm and karate instructor sent me a message (which came to my phone) asking when I'd next be training. It was a facebook message and I honestly don't think he realised it would come to my phone but anyway DP went mad saying that just proves it and now he doesn't support it at all. Awkward thing is I want to go tonight but DP is still pissed off.
What do you reckon, is it me being out of order here? I don't want to upset DP but I don't want to quit again either.
