DP has a second home, two very long train journeys and a long drive from here. If we drive, we usually break it up with a stay overnight, so it can take 2 days to get there. The house is in a beautiful, but very remote and rural spot.
We were supposed to drive up together last Fri 4th. I have to be back here for my DC’s thing on Sun 13th (tomorrow) and was going to get trains back by myself.
He left it longer and longer to depart. He had to empty his place here, work etc. In the end, he left alone on Mon the 7th and I stayed back at my house by myself. It didn’t make sense for me to leave Mon as I’d arrive there only to have to return day or so later!
I suggested I join him by train after the DC’s event tomorrow, booked my train tickets (£££!) and he made plans for us to meet his DCs on my arrival (although this changed a bit and he hasn’t asked 2nd DC yet) on Sun (tomorrow) night.
Last night, he said his house has no oil & so no hot water. Next delivery is on Wednesday. It’s saucepans & hot water until the delivery. He also invited his DS to stay next Thurs for a long weekend. I suggested he confirm this plan after oil delivery.
I will need to come home yet again for my DCs on 1st July, so the longer I leave it, the harder it gets. My DCs (teenagers) need to come first.
AIBU by suggesting I keep hanging back here in my house until he has hot water again? WWYD?
