Just so fed up

I posted here a few weeks ago about issues between myself and dp.Have a young baby and older child at home.Basially he has spent the last few months training for a big sporting event.We argued about this a lot because I felt ... well... Abandoned really.He also works away.So when the weekend came there was nothing to look forward to with him.It was just me and the dcs and we would go out to the beach or visit friends.It was tough doing it all alone ( I really feel for single mothers) and especially with the new baby.So the event is now over and I thought we would do something together.I suggested a place in a city a few hours away from here as he had to go there anyway to pick something up.This morning I was very tired having been up twice to feed the baby and once to settle older dd and he wanted sex.I told him that I was exhausted and needed to sleep and he kept pestering me until I lost my cool.So he got up and sulked and took Dd off to the place I had mentioned during the week.I have been really looking forwar to a day out as we haven't gone anywhere in about a year.I'm just fed up having nothing to look forward to at the end of the week

Oh I am so sorry.

He hasn't really grasped that his participation in the sport comes with a massive price tag for you, nor the huge generosity on you part in giving him the time.

I'm not at all surprised you are so fed up, it's a totally reasonable reaction to his utter lack of consideration.

Where do you want to go from here? Is he selfish in other ways? Are his sulks a typical behaviour, or is this a one off?

That's what I'm wondering too.Where do I go from here?I feel very alone and I feel like I don't matter even though he would say I'm wrong.Just feel actions are speaking louder than words
