To be upset at him?

I have started seeing my ex again. We have been getting on really well. We met for a date last weekend and talked about seeing each other again this weekend and he said he had nothing at all on, so all was good, we could arrange something.

I made noises about arranging something a few days back and suddenly he's busy all weekend. He's away for two weekends after this weekend so I won't see him for three weeks. I got a bit miffed at this and commented that he'd said he had a completely free weekend when I saw him and he said something about just because he'd said that, it just meant he didn't have anything planned but had lots to do.

He eventually said he would be free Saturday afternoon and some of Sunday daytime. I then said that was good and we could do something Saturday afternoon. He then immediately text back that he was now meeting his family for the afternoon. So that was Saturday afternoon out. I also mentioned I could stay over at his, and have stayed many times in the past when we were together but he said it was too soon for that, even in his spare room as I had suggested.

I got really upset and called him out on being unavailable and if he wasn't interested to just say so. He said he definitely is interested. TBH without being boasty, he is punching above his weight.

AIBU to be upset at his behaviour? It feels like he's challenging me.

He honestly thinks he's not being unreasonable though?! He's awful.

Ffs woman have some self respect.

He’s doing this to wear you down and confuse you and make you feel happy with his shitty crumbs.

Just disengage for good and find someone who isn’t an abuser-in-waiting.

Women are not rehabs for men. You don't need to try and make him see by pleading and reasoning because he will not listen.

Who cares what he thinks anyway?! He is not your problem. Move on with your life!

he's an absolute arse. Was the same last time always seeing how far he could push me.

I think you are being a bit unreasonable. Imagine if it was the other way round. Plans change.

Glad you have ended this., I do hope it's for good this time..

You weren't a priority for him... it really shouldn't be this hard lovely...

Block him and look forward 🌸

Dodged a bullet then haven't you? Good. Now move on and don't give him the satisfaction of having you chase him around. You deserve better.
