Omg I have fucked up

[Fusedog]

We were invited to dinner by a lovely couple and I got the dates mixed up it's tonight can't go as we haven't got a baby sitter she just sent me a. Text asking if we were coming I then said oh yes babysitter booked see you tomorrow , she must of been like wtf and gave me a ring

It's to night she said we can come tomorrow however I feel awful I apologised lots but really feel awful I know she's most likey gone loads of trouble

I don't know what to do

Just come clean - no point you worrying and pretending you didn't fuck-up and no point her seething and worrying she said wrong date. JUST.CALL.BACK. am so sorry, totally messed up , lets have a fab night tomorrow if it suits you, will bring bribes and laugh about it.

Tell Mr Perfect to put a bloody sock in it and grow up. Has he never made a mistake for goodness sake?

But also, it is slightly weird to have folk round for dinner on a Sunday eve. Mothering Sunday as well.

Yes she already knows she phoned me straight after the text I think the text pointed to me having the wrong date I apologised loads and also grovelled by text

I guess Mr Perfect has you to manage his social diary? Otherwise he would clearly have gotten the date right...

That's what dh said

He's now been proved right but what the fuck dose he want a cookie and when I asked what should I do when I realised he just kept saying I was right , you never listen to me blah blah blah you never check any details

Have there been any other issues like this between you, op? It does seem to have hit one hell of a nerve with him, doesn't it?

Crikey - you just got a date wrong. No need for the histrionics.

He needs to wind his neck in.

Sadly no he just likes to be right
Some people seem to just glow when they can tell you I told you so ..

One of his not so charming qualities

Don't worry-it's more of a mix up than just you being a fault. There's a chance she could have told you the wrong day, and I bet she's feeling guilty to. Go along tomorrow, laugh about it and tell DH you wish you were as perfect as him but unfortunately you're not (usually works to get mine to pipe down).

TBH it sounds like there's more of a problem with your DH.

Was his complaining out of character? If so ignore me, but if not, were you worried about your friend's response or your DH?

Why does your DH think its a good idea to be such an arse about it?

SOunds like your friend is cool with it (its quite funny)

If it makes you feel better we turned up a day late for someone's wedding, ended up round at their house eating wedding cake and having a lovely time

He has a point. So don't hate him. But now stop stressing. Get some sleep. Buy her something lovely tomorrow to apologise and then enjoy yourself. It will be much worse if you are tense and apologetic all evening. And remember clocks go forward tonight.

No we all had a hoot when they came to ours

He is a moaner however he's just one of those people who can't help gloat when right

Am I the only one thinking you should go round now by yourself? Take a couple of bottle of wine, enjoy day with them and leave your mean spirited are of a husband at home...

That should of course be enjoy dessert with them.

If it makes you feel better, DH was asked by new neighbours if we'd like to come round to dinner next week - he thought he said yes. We turned up on the night, bottle if wine in hand, and it turned out DH had actually said to them he would ask me and let them know. Neighbours (probably thought we were very rude) and were not expecting us at all. Was really embarrassing but we still became firm friends. Stuff like this happens.

Old friend of mine missed my wedding because she wrote down the wrong date! Was a real shame as hadn't seen her for ages.

he's just one of those people who can't help gloat when right

When you get there tomorrow laden with flowers and chocolates, say "I am so sorry about yesterday. I feel dreadful to have messed you about like that. Mind you, it's made DH happy. He's had a ball rubbing in what an idiot I've been." They will be straight in on your side and he'll have to shut up or look like a total tosser.
