New relationship of 6 months.
He can be a bit flaky. I try to be understanding when he's stressed with work / family matters but after him cancelling on me at short notice this morning I'm left feeling sad and unappreciated again (because it isn't the first time, he has form for it)
We won't be able to see one another next week so planned to go for a 'valentines day breakfast' this morning, as we generally can't do Fridays and weekends (children/work) and won't see each other for the next 10 days.
He text me at 7am saying
"I feel like shit today. I just want to get DC into school and get back home to relax before work. How about you take (friend) for breakfast and i'll see you tomorrow if you can do that. Sorry to cancel"
He isn't ill, that isn't what he means. He means he's tired or can't be arsed.
It upset me. I'd made an effort and was excited to see him. He knows Fridays aren't realistic.
I replied "oh thanks a bunch, it's very short notice"
Sorry, he says.
I spent the day feeling sad and unappreciated.
He text me later on saying he'd look out for me on my way home from work.
Well when I did see him and he started to walk over to me I just carried on walking, I know he clocked me and will probably think I've been really rude.
How would you have handled this situation?
There is a pattern of me putting in more effort and energy than he does and I'm just tired of it.
No idea when I'll hear from him again and not sure I want to now.
Am I unreasonable and petty or is this perfectly reasonable after being messed around?
