Inconsiderate twat

Absolutely fuming. I went out for a massage straight after work tonight. It ended at 7.15 and I'd told my husband I'd be home by 8 at the latest. He was going on a night out but had to come home to collect our daughter because of my appointment (which was arranged about 4 weeks ago. His night out was arranged yesterday).

I'd already been asked twice yesterday what time I'd be home. "7.45, 8 ish at the latest".

I left the centre feeling brilliant and it just so happened a bus arrived straight away. As I was stepping off the bus at our home (7.29) I got a text asking "What's your eta?"

I couldn't believe it.

His explanation was that he wasn't hassling me to get home, he just wanted to know what time I'd be back so he could arrange a taxi because he'd checked the bus timetables and he'd have to wait till 8.05 for a bus. How awful! He couldn't bear arriving at the pub at 8.30? He couldn't wait till I got home to ring a taxi? (which normally takes 2-3 mins to arrive).

I am incredulous. And just a bit fucking angry. Just had to get that off my chest.

I'd be annoyed too unless you have form for being late.

I have to agree with 90% of the replies. You call your DP an ''Inconsiderate Twat'' because he sent you a text message so he could go on to organise his own 'me time' ... Wow. Okay.

Also, if this makes you Absolutely fuming, perhaps you have anger issues that you may need to address.

How strange, you have an estimated ETA and having then had your massage you'd be in a position to give a more accurate ETA to allow him to book a taxi and advise others of his ETA. My local don't always run on time and he wouldn't have known if you appointment was on time either.

I think you're very lacking in empathy if you can't understand it might have been beneficial to him for you to have texted him to say you weren't running late, especially given you knew he was waiting for your return do he could go out.
