My partner and I have been together for a year currently do not live together as I have a dog that does not like him. I’d like to make changes to living arrangements to make this happen but he does not seem keen to do this.
He is currently injured and cannot drive, I made plans to go to him this afternoon when leaving him on Monday. He seems to forget this by Thursday and then after being reminded asks if he can see his friends instead specifically naming 2 men. Now one of these men is dating a friend of mine who is currently not talking to me, because they feel I did not do enough during the recent loss of a pet. I was pretty certain the evening he planned would include her and it made me a little upset but he did not say it and a friend had been travelling for months (he saw him Thursday to go out to breakfast and Friday morning to play with man toys). Both men are off on holiday for 10 days from tomorrow which is another reason he wanted to see them (the other guy he raced with the previous Saturday and then spent the evening with).
It then transpires that he invites them all to his home for dinner. This I admit upset me as I assumed they would go to the home of the friend who isn’t speaking to me where I would not be welcome or maybe eating out. This feels like he chose her comfort over mine (and his own) and being his space that hurt my feelings. If I had visited for the afternoon as planned and been there for the meal, it would have given her a choice of whether to come or not. I had no choice.
I think he should have just been upfront with me and said, I want to see my friends, she’ll likely want to be involved how do we play this? AIBU??
