Late last I got a call from my friend who was drunk and really upset and lost somewhere an hour away there was no one that could go and pick her up so I said I'd go. My DD was here so I asked Dp if he minded and he didn't want me to go at all, there was no one else that could of went and I don't know what she would of done if I couldn't go but he said it was fine leaving DD but he didn't want me to go at all but I went now he's gone to work in a grump this morning after ignoring me. The childish part is we're both stubborn if we think we're in the right. I understand him not wanting me to go but my friend needed me so I went and I no she would of done exactly the same thing for.

So who IBU?

He's just never got round to it but yeh he does work full time

We hardly ever fall out like this and if we ever have a disagreement if he realises he's wrong he'll always apologise accept he's in the wrong then we move on but this is the first time we both think we're right and are 'sulking'

Well he's not right, so tough shit him.

Actually, Worra, you're right, people do think not driving is odd when people may have perfectly acceptable or legitimate reasons. Reminds me of someone who failed their test three times so decided never to bother again, they decided they clearly weren't up to it.

Back to the OP, though, I think he was not necessarily being unreasonable in not wanting you to go out an hour away in the middle of the night to points unknown. You were not necessarily being unreasonable wanting to help your friend who ought to have known better. He IS being unreasonable still to be unhappy about it.

But to never even try ?

Why is he sulking ? because you didn't do as he wanted ? I just dont get why a grown man is sulking (and punishing you) because you went to help a friend

I'm not sure why he's still sulking I haven't heard from him since he left for work early so we'll see how long this goes on for now
