To think this is taking the piss a bit?

[BayCityRocker]

Got a text from my girflreind this morning asking if Id take her to a wedding. she was supposed to be getting a lift off someone else but it fell through so I agreed. She also asked if Id pick her up later so I agreed.

6pm she text me and said "im ready to leave, can you pick me up?"

I sent a text back saying "On my way"

10 minutes later Im halfway there and get a text saying "have you already set off?" so I text back and said "yes why?" so she says she needs more time and would I pick her up later. So i drive home.

7pm she text and said "can you pick me up in 15 minutes?" so I text back "yes, on my way"

Set off again, 3/4 of the way there she text again saying "speeches not finoshed, I better make it 8pm. sorry x"

So I go home again. 8pm I phone here and say "You ready to leave?" and she said "yes" so I set off, get to the party, wait outside and text that I was there. HALF AN HOUR LATER she leaves the party.

Im pissed off and she thinks Im overreacting.

Well I don't think YABU and I agree with the poster who said it doesn't show you much respect.

You need to sort that out before you propose to her!

Well, I think we havent heard the whole saga, and would reserve judgement until the OP comes back and fill us in. Why was your girlfriend supposed to leave the wedding so early???

I think she is being a bit U and you have every right to be a bit cheesed off BUT I don't think that it necessarily shows lack of respect or that she taking advantage or using you as some have implied/said.

You are obviously such a lovely boyfriend and very gentlemanly to go and pick her up - it's hard sometimes to leave occasions as you get waylaid. I personally would have thought less of you if you had left her to get a taxi. If I had been somewhere without my DP and was a bit pissed tired and ready to go home, then I would expect my DP to fetch me no questions asked.

Sorry, but, after the first time, I might have given her one more chance, but after that told her to ring a taxi.

Is there any reason why you weren't invited to the wedding?

Why did she leave so early, and why weren't you invited to the wedding?

Sometimes it is not easy to leave, people might come and talk to you, she obviously didn't realise the speeches were to come if she asked you to come for her at 6.

I don't really understand though.. It takes you 20 minutes to drive there, you left at 6, and drove 10 minutes, then drove home. 40 minutes later, she asks you to come in 15 minutes, even though its 20 minutes away? Then, at 7.15, she asks you to come back at 8.

So you knew it would be 15 minutes home (so, 7.30) and 20 minutes to get back, you would only be in the house for 10 minutes! Why did you bother going home?

Anyway, hard to know unless we find out why she left so early and why weren't you invited.

Does she treat like you this in other areas of your relationship as well?

If this is how you usually do things/how your relationship works/what you tolerate, then yes, YABU for expecting her to behave any differently...

You did pull over to read her texts in the car, right? You didn't read and reply to them while driving I hope.

YANBU but you did let her take the piss.

You could have just gone to her house and waited in her living room rather than going home again.

Personally, I'd've said straightaway, "Look, sorry, I've not got all night. Be ready or I'll not be available."

Oh my god I hate when OP's don't come back

maybe he's just having a laff

Maybe HE did this to his gf and was hoping for some misguided support?
