About today’s plans

Asked OH to come to the Xmas market with me today some time back, he agreed, put it in our calendar. Checked in about it earlier this week and he didn’t fancy going anymore (to be fair he is having a tough time with family and whilst I’m disappointed I understand). He suggested the beach instead which was a fine compromise for me. Then last night started to comment about today’s poor weather forecast (we can’t go tomorrow because he has other plans). I was therefore not surprised when my 7:30 am alarm went off this morning and his first text (we do t live together and this is my child free weekend when we can do stuff together. I have DD EOW) was “morning, the weather is rubbish”. He then suggested a couple of much less fun local options we could do in an hour or two followed by “or we could still go the beach if you want to”. So I asked him what he really wanted to do. He said go off and do work on his do-er-upper project. He suggested I go for a walk and then go get some Xmas shopping done instead.

I have and my day has been ok but to be honest I’m disappointed and be a bit upset that our day out together hasn’t happened and I don’t have a poker face. Now he’s annoyed with me for being upset because if I’d said I really wanted to go to the beach he’d have gone. I didn’t want to go to the beach particularly- I just wanted him to spend the day with me and for us to do something nice together. I’m not not speaking to him. I dropped him a butty off at his garage. If I’d known he wasn’t free today I’d have made plans with a friend or family. Everyone already had plans because I was supposed to be with OH.

I dont understand why the christmas market wasnt doable but the beach was

He’s having a bit of strife with his family that means he’s not in a Xmas mood. Bit of a bummer for me because I love a bit of tinsel but I’d have compromised.

Not in the Christmas mood but in the beach mood?
