Can you please let me know if I'm being an irrational cow. It's my new(ish) boyfriends birthday today and after ages of agonising about what to get I decided a nice weekend away. He's in France (he's French) with family for 2 weeks over Xmas and new year..so I hinted that we celebrate the weekend after he is back. I research and book lovely hotel and restaurant. Today I double check he is still free but apparently he has to come back to France for a family dinner as his cousin is back from Miami. So now I have to cancel...am pissed off, how many family dinners does a person need? He suggested we postpone and I said yes sure but I'm sort of thinking the moment might have passed by the time we find a weekend we are both free, plus the place I picked books up quickly. Am I being unreasonable to be in a stress about this? I kind of feel like not bothering and just doing a low key dinner instead
