or AIBU?
even though it was a slip of the tongue I couldn't help feeling pissed off.
we were out to dinner with friends, 6 of us there and at the end of the meal dp called me by exw name. everyone heard and there was this moment where they all shut up and looked at me...we were leaving anyway so I just said 'no dp, my name is X get it right' said my goodbyes and we left.
I just don't think there is any need - maybe at the start of a relationship, yes - but not when you've been together for years and are an eatablished couple.
I felt kind of embarrassed and disappointed. dp didn't even apologise really, he was quite blaze about it and said 'well I was with her for 8 years, of course im used to saying her name'
I don't know why it bothered me so much, but it really did.
for me it was like he was happy, a little loose-lipped, relaxed so her name was the one that naturally came out.
over thinking perhaps, but just how I feel.
