to be pi$$ed off with DH?

[Butterfly99]

I hardly ever go out in the evening, which is just as well really, as dh never comes home from work. However tonight I was going to a belly dancing (!) class which starts at 7.30pm. Asked him to come home on time for me to go, and he went into work early. He emails at about 2.30 to ask if I am still going, and to let him know if I'm not. I reply that I am definately going. He then rings at 5.45 to say something has come up at work and he won't now be able to come home in time for me to go. I tell him i am pissed off about that and he puts the phone down on me. He often works away. He nearly always manages to come home on time for him to play badminton on fridays. I wanted to do something for me, and now I will have missed the first two sessions of belly dancing so would have to join in week 3 when they have already had two lessons.

the selfish git!
if he can manage his time to suit his leisure time, he can ( but won't ) do it for you.
If my DH hung up on me that would be the last time BTW. that is beyond rude.

oh, i would also 'accidently' break something he holds dear ;)

If he regularly manages to finish work on time to do his own stuff, but can't seem to manage it for yours then he's being pretty selfish and I'd be fuming too. Also very mature of him to hang up on you!

Yanbu, what does he do that he can't manage his time better? Especially if he cam miraculously manage it for his badminton.

I know that things do sometimes crop up unexpectedly........ but if he manages to get home for his stuff then that is very unfair. Maybe you need to suggest that he forgoes what he will spend on his hobby next week to pay for a babysitter to ensure that you get to go to yours betcha he'll be home on time

I take it you have kids, which is why you need dh home on time? In that case I would most definitely be arranging to do something very important that clashes with Friday's badminton, meaning he has to stay at home.... My dh would only do this once before getting the message.

I would have to pop out when he gets home to go to badminton and unfortunately get held up!!!!

yanbu

If he couldn't make it back in time he should have arranged a babysitter to be at yours in time for you to go out.

I would go out on friday night get totally hammered, come home when I liked and see how he likes it, sounds like you need/ deserve a decent night out.

Your dh for example is a selfish twat
