My mum invited me and DP for Christmas eve dinner. She doesn't know DP very well and knowing that he's not exactly life of the party, I told him I'd go on my own. He insisted however, on coming with me....even though he knows as well as I do that he'd be constantly clock watching and wouldn't enjoy it but god forbid I go anywhere without him.
So anyway, it was to be quite a big deal, my grandma had also made the effort to go just to meet him etc.
So when we first got there, he was quiet and looked a bit nervous. Fair enough but after a while he started to really piss me off.
My mum made him a cup of tea. He complained it was "too sweet".
After dinner, he sat there falling asleep on the sofa. I was so embarrassed. My poor grandma kept trying to talk to him and he was completely ignoring her. I had to prompt him a few times to get him to acknowledge that someone was speaking to him. When he "realised" he gave one sentance answers and prompty went back to sitting there with his eyes closed.
What pisses me off even more is the fact that he must have been aware of what was going on because as soon as we got home, he started questioning me on conversations I'd had with my mum whilst he was aparantly "asleep".
He never even thanked my mum for dinner or the presents or anything and had it not been for her shouting down the street at him as he was hurrying to the car, he wouldn't have even said goodbye.
My grandma will now think he's a tosser.
I've not mentioned it to him yet but I'm still annoyed by it. He also made us an hour late by faffing delivering presents at 11am when he knew we were meant to be THERE for 11am.
Then to add insult to injury, when we were due to visit HIS parents on boxing day, he started kicking off when we were delayed saying we couldn't be late!!!
