AIBU for being a little upset that DP has been told he has to work away from home for months?

[ParadoxicalCat]

Before I start, I know I'm just going to have to suck it up and I'll probably even enjoy some of it.

DP and I work in the same company and have lived together for 3 years. He's been bullied into working in another office for at least the next two months(normally ends up being longer). I can't transfer with him and he can't work from home. This office is a 4 hour drive away. Work haven't been too unreasonable; they'll accommodate him. However the thing that made me sad was the phrase "We don't think it's fair to ask 'Bob' to do it as he's a family man." 'Bob' has been married for a year, no kids, none on the way. 'Bob' mightn't have minded going, if he'd been asked. Why does 'Bob' get more of a choice?

AIBU for wanting to sulk at the prospect of only seeing DP on weekends for a while?

You may well find that they asked Bob, either this time or previously, and Bob said no.

Which is what your DP needs to do, if he doesn't want to go.

You probably won't mind it after a while, though. You do get used to it. Just make the most of the weekends - don't save all the mundane tasks for then.

Ah it's fine OH in the Navy makes you really appreciate the time you do have :)

DP has said no. They said they'd book the train for Monday morning. Bob was not asked, or he's lying.

Weather, I'm going that turns out to be the case. Not used to the peace and quiet :)

Like I said, I know I'll have to suck it up, just wish it wasn't needed.
