I’d like an opinion whether I’m BU.
My husband works until about 7-8pm most fridays. It’s not part of his regular job but it earns extra money. It means I’m at home with the kids and TBH it’s a long and lonely Friday night most weeks. I hate it.
He sometimes picks up a take away on the way home. Not always.
Tonight I had planned and shopped for dinner. He texted at 6pm offering to get a take away. My friend was here, he offered to get her one, too but she was only popping by and wouldn’t still be there at 8pm. My younger daughter doesn’t like take away so I cooked her the planned meal, cleared away, loaded the dishwasher.
At 8pm he texted and said he would be at work for another hour. Then 45 minutes to get to the take away, then 15 mins home. So it would be 10pm when we ate.
I’m a bit pissed off. We are starving. I had a meal planned. I don’t think 10pm is dinner time. He’s angry with me for being pissed off. Says he can’t control what time he finishes work (which is true).
He suggested I do my own thing for myself and elder child and he will get himself a take away at 10pm. So I’ve got to get up now and cook a meal from scratch when I’ve just cleared away.
I’m just utterly pissed off that he’d throw my meal plans and then get irate with me when I’m pissed off. I’m knackered, I’m hungry. But I’m apparently in the wrong?
