Argument out of nowhere

[blueberrypie29]

Before anyone says anything I know this is totally first world problems.

DP and I were booking a holiday this evening. I'd spent a while putting all the details in, checking everything, dates, going through different hotels and packages etc etc, finally found one that suited everything we wanted. DP had sort of zoned out by this point on his phone but I showed him some pics and the location and he agreed I should book. I went to the booking page and there was 1 room left for the dates we wanted. He then also decided to go on the same booking page on his phone with all the right dates etc as he wanted to 'check the price'. It came up showing as the same price as I'd got it for. I then asked if he could please close the webpage as I was about to confirm and pay for the room, and I was worried there'd be a glitch with us both looking like we were trying to book the same last room.

He then became annoyed that I was trying to 'control' what he was doing with his phone and this led to an argument. His view was that the website wouldn't crash and I was being ridiculous. Mine was that he could've shown some support as I was just trying to get the room secured.

AIBU..? (Seems petty even writing this out)

It does sound a bit ridiculous there could of been plenty of people looking at the same page as you it wouldn't have caused a glitch. But he didn't need to cause an argument. Maybe it was getting too stressful sounds like it was a bit of a pain to find somewhere yous wanted

But I dont see ehere he eas doing anything wrong, and using the word support in this case really does sound to me like 'he wasnt supporting me because he did not do what I said' he is not a child

Websites are built for multiple traffic, so your paranoia about that is a little silly. But his reaction sounds completely OTT.

It just sounds like an argument that escalated and is essentially about nothing (unless there’s a huge back story!) Happens in the happiest of marriages. I’d just laugh about it with DH and book your holiday!

Were you on the same internet connection and worried the website would read it as some sort of suspicious activity from the one ip address or something like that. Have you hit that security page a lot, the one that says something like do the evil barely functioning CAPTCHA thing to prove you're human as they've had too many attempts to connect from your location, or some such bollocks to that effect. I get that a fair bit and it really pisses me off if I'm trying to get something important and time critical done. OMG, I really fucking hate CAPTCHA.

I've lost deals myself, getting stuck in a loop with that fucking thing. Or am I thinking about reCAPTCHA. Well, whichever fucking one it is with the tiny shitty pictures of buses, mountains, traffic lights, bicycles and cars. 🤬

Whatever it is, just tell him he's an ungrateful twat as you were only trying to make sure you got him the holiday he said he also wanted and thought somebody else might snap it up while you went off to google research if your tech based slight concerns were valid before asking him to close his link to the same pages.

If this was the one and only time the op was like this I would agree, but how is the op normally from his viewpoint?

We only hear one side
