He's proved my point really hasn't he?

Have been seeing someone for a few years. We both have DC and busy lives so we don't see each other often enough for me to call him my DP. We see each other eow and one night a week.

He's sweet and affectionate (and crucially the sex has always been fantastic) but can be a bit thoughtless/stubborn and when I tell him his actions have irritated/upset me he just goes silent and then texts me the next day/2 days later with some inane message about the weather.

After he messed me about last week (invited me out with him and his friends requiring me to change my child free night with exP which I did). He then didn't firm up our plans or even mention them again, went out with his friends and text me the next day (our usual evening together) asking if he was good to come over as usual Hmm.

I was pissed off and told him why. And told him I thought he was godawful at communicating.

His response has been to ignore me since that text (Thursday). He's just proved me right hasn't he?

Won't be contacting him again. Have no time for this crap. He's in his 40's fgs so not likely to change and I have no interest in attempting to change him anyway.

This would have been 'our' weekend but I have Wine and Strictly. I'm better off without him aren't I?

Aww lovely. I want to ruffle his 'do!

Aw, had to come on to congratulate you on having such a gorgeous dog.
Also agree about the other less important stuff.
You're just not that into him now OP, are you? I'd be raging about changing kids' access night pointlessly. He definitely should have known better, if he'd had any sense at all. What with him being a dad n' all.

This is the best 'taking no shit' thread I've read in ages. Onwards and upwards OP!

And that's a very cute dog.

Pooh is a she and she's a proper muppet Grin

Have realised more and more things that annoyed me about ex but I ignored them at the time.

He is a horrendously noisy eater 🙉.

When eating he rushes, barely looks up from his plate and never makes conversation.

He was a bit selfish, sexually.
