AIBU to think this is rude?

One of dh's friends was supposed to come by today. He lives in Spain and is in the uk for a wedding. We haven't heard anything from him since earlier in the week. It just really annoys me that he hasn't called to say when he might arrive. I've tidied the house and DH has prepared enough dinner for him. I'm not feeling great and I'd really like to go have a nice long bath, but I don't want to in case he arrives. So annoyed .

Was it a casual 'I'll pop in if I get a chance?' or an 'I'll be there at 4' arrangement?

Go and have a bath. Rude boy won't mind being entertained by your dh without you for a while.

Not exactly sure since all communication was through DH. But my understanding was that he'd come by today. I don't think time was mentioned, but wouldn't a call st say "I be there at 4" or whatever would be protocol.

It´s possibly your husband you need to be annoyed with if he´s happy with the arrangement that he´s made.

Do you like him/want to see him?

I don´t really get why your day has to be on hold tbh.

I'd go ahead and have the bath,he may not arrive at all.Remember,he's in holiday mood so won't really be feeling too rigid about schedules etc.

If he turns up,leave your dh to entertain him.

YANBU Ginger. I would prefer to know when guests were arriving (particularly on a Sunday when you have a million and one things to organise before a busy week). Have a bath and put some nice music on to relax, if he turns up you can pop down later and say hello :)

Has he arrived yet?

Why dont you / dh text the bloke with a "just checking what time we may expect you ? "
Job done !

Some cultures more laid back than others re plans, is he Spanish?

Personally I'd just ask DH to find out expected time and be a bit miffed that he hadn't already

I'm curious too - did he turn up? Did you get your bath?

If he's casual, you can be casual too. Don't see why you shouldn't go and have your bath. Just behave as normal, with a bit of extra food.

If he came from Spain for a wedding in the UK he probably got held up with friends and family.

Rude not to let you know the Time of Arrival or change in plans tho.

Go on, get ahead with your own life and if he comes, enjoy the visit (without running around after him!).

Oh yea, he's (coming) from Spain.

Everything is Manyana (phonetic) there - means tomorrow...
