So me and the husband had a trip planned for the 29th of July. I have been so excited but husband told me today he can't get the days off work, fair enough shall we change the trip to the sat/sun? Apparently this is too much hassle and hes decided were not going. Now he's going on about how every time we make plans they get cancelled?! Wtf!

So upset,

To top it off, he's not even brought me a pressie off the kids for my bday on Friday. And nothing off him like normal!!

Aww YANBU

What is his job?

Did he not think to book the days off well in advance?

Why can't it be changed to sat or sun?

Doesn't sound like he makes much effort Sad

I'd be upset too :-( Hope you manage to have a nice birthday with the kids. x

I'm sorry you have to be upset but, if her were to pay for it, perhaps he realised that he couldn't afford it and that's why he didn't just change the days to go. Do you know your family's money business?

Im the one who sorts out money, b&b gets paid when we leave,only needed about of money, wasn't abroad. He's a joiner, two people are off already so he can't take it off.iv booked a meal for next weekend for our first anniversary, asked If he wanted to cinema, he said he doesn't know.

Could you take a friend with you on the trip, this will be your birthday celebration and gift.

Didn't he book the time off? Surely if he booked the time when you arranged it, he gets precedence over the other two?

Guessing he never booked it off, its more the fact hes trying to make me feel like its my fault!

Well don't let him. He sounds like a kid waa waa not my fault nothing's my fault waa waa.

point out that not booking time off was HIS choice. That refusing alternative dates was HIS choice and that in fact plans do not "get cancelled" as though that is happening to him - he has cancelled them. A choice he has made.

God I can't stand people who cannot own their choices.

Happy birthday for friday.
