Two things but similar theme.
Firstly, a friend has invited us to go to a party. I can't go as I'm working late so I texted to tell her that we couldn't make it. She texts back and asks if DH and the kids would still like to come and I say I'll get him to contact you. DH, who wasn't keen, now says I've put him in a bit of a position and I shouldn't have said that and now I have to think of an excuse for him. I think he should do it, personally.
Secondly, my friend provisionally asked if we could look after her pet while she's on holiday. I said yes but I needed to check the holiday dates in case they clash. She is now assuming that it was a firm yes, which it wasn't but hasn't told me directly but through another friend. I'm pretty sure I'm around for most of the two weeks, bar the last weekend, if not, another friend could help so all is not lost. DH is not keen to have the pet so, again, says I should contact her to call it off. Personally, if he is the one saying no, which he always is, I think he should do it.
I'm getting fed up with looking henpecked and a wimp and saying yes then no because of him.
