Partner (51) of 12 years lives/works 200 miles away. Was supposed to spend Christmas with me, I tested positive for covid on the 16th...before the 10 day isolation period was cut to 7. When it was cut, partner had already offered to work on Christmas Eve as a member of his staff had tested positive the day before (care job, so he couldn't cancel). I was disappointed, but I've spent Christmas Day on my own 8 times out of the last 11 years due to his work (I have no family in the UK). The earliest he could get AL to come and see me was January 6th.
Tonight he rings to tell me that he's disappointed because he has to work the night shift NYE (due to another positive covid member of staff) ... I remarked that I thought he was already working the day shift...he then says that his parents are having the night away in Dorset (they live in London), and he was going to go with them!
I get the whole 'oh I thought I'd already told you'...err no! Not something I'm likely to forget! Turns out he's got 3 days off over New Year ... and going away with his parents for the night has won over going to see his girlfriend who is recovering from covid...
Am I wrong to be very upset/livid about this?
