Saturday night I went out with him and his friend and girlfriend (only first time I met them)
Anyway long story short we missed the last train and he said we could stay at his and girlfriends house.
Then ..next morning,reality set in.
I had slept in my clothes and I had no makeup with me and I looked a treat (not)
My boyfriend said his sister was collecting him and taking him home,I was thinking "hmmm is she taking me home too"so I said
"Would you mind dropping me at the train station and il jump on the train"(thinking he would say il drive you )
He then says .."I really can't,she doesn't like giving lifts to strangers and the train station is 10 mins opposite to the way we are going"
So we go downstairs ..and they make us a cuppa.
Half way through he gets a texts and his sister arrives and he just stands up and says
"She's here,gives me a kiss and leaves and tells me to text once I'm home"
So ..I'm sat on strangers sofa ...looking a state and he has left.
Would you be annoyed too?
Am I being a drama queen ?

No that would big time fuck me off. How new is this bf? He's either keeping you a secret from his family (doesn't like strangers in her car bollocks) or he's just selfish. He could have at least called you a cab. He pretty much left you stranded.

I would be annoyed and I don't think I'd want to see him again. This is the stage where he should be going all out to impress you and seal the deal to be his girlfriend, not leave you at a strangers having to do the walk of shame home alone.

RaspberryGirl · 30/12/2019 09:00

This is ridiculous and I’d be furious. Have you spoken since?

whatabloodypickle · 30/12/2019 09:01

We started seeing each other beginning of September.
Yeah he rang me last night and text this morning.
It was one of them "did that really happen scenarios"

You are SO not being unreasonable! How thoughtless. If he's thoughtless now, his imagine where this will go.

Dacquoise · 30/12/2019 09:02

No you aren't being a 'drama queen'. You are quite entitled to feel angry and let down by this. He hasn't given you any consideration at all. Do you really want a partner that doesn't consider your welfare and as this is the beginning of your relationship it will only get worse as time goes on? Find someone you treats you as his special someone.

TuppenceDarling · 30/12/2019 09:02

He has acted selfishly, made sure he is taken care of and not given you any thought at all. It’s also bad mannered. He sounds like a childish knob and is get rid.

Somanysocks · 30/12/2019 09:02

Well he has shown what he thinks of you so suggest you dump him. Get someone who respects you, I am guessing you are very young so get back out there. Don't waste any more time on him.

lunasunshine · 30/12/2019 09:02

I would 100% be annoyed. How thoughtless.

Aloe6 · 30/12/2019 09:02

This would be the end for me. A complete lack of care or interest for you.

helpwithhouse · 30/12/2019 09:03

What the fuck? Of course that’s not ok!
It’s up to his sister if she wants to give you a lift or not. But if she doesn’t he should’ve got the train with you x

DeeZastris · 30/12/2019 09:03

He sounds like a selfish arsehole.

MrsSiriusBlack1 · 30/12/2019 09:04

Tell him to piss off, that’s poor behaviour.

Smellbellina · 30/12/2019 09:04

I’d dump him for that

whatabloodypickle · 30/12/2019 09:04

He does live in the opposite direction but the plan was to get the train back to mine then go for Sunday lunch and he was going to get the train home.

Give yourself belated Christmas present: singledom. Start the new year free of this selfish arse.

JingleBellsFartlekSmells · 30/12/2019 09:05

Selfish twat. This will only get worse as time goes on. Get rid!

KM99 · 30/12/2019 09:05

The lifts to strangers lines sounds total bullshit to me. It would've been 10 minutes, you are his GF and he'd be in the car too.

He left you with people you didn't know that well with no consideration for how you'd get home. I've had one night stands/FWBs treat me better than that.

AfterSchoolWorry · 30/12/2019 09:06

Hmm, 'sister' ????? Or girlfriend? 😯

Nquartz · 30/12/2019 09:06

He was so out of order. As PP has said, this is going to improve because he should be on his best behaviour so early on. Do yourself a favour and get rid.

RoseMartha · 30/12/2019 09:06

I would be seriously thinking about ending it. Especially as you have mentioned that you both had a plan in place to go out for lunch.

GrannyBags · 30/12/2019 09:06

I normally get cross with the women on here who are so quick to suggest dumping a boyfriend the minute he does something wrong but today I’m at the front of that line!
He left you on your own with strangers. He sorted out a lift for himself and not you. He didn’t even make sure you got to the train ok. I’m sorry to say that if he thinks that little of you now, things are unlikely to get better. Find someone who treats you better.

Didiusfalco · 30/12/2019 09:07

Honestly, take it as a warning sign not to waste any more time and ditch him.

Kaykay066 · 30/12/2019 09:08

Really? That’s not on at all what a twit he is. Thinking of himself only did the couple you stayed with not comment?

My boyfriend would’ve moved mountains to make sure I got home safe before he considered himself & that’s what you want in a man to be considered & thought about

kanatano · 30/12/2019 09:09

Not my type of bf. Not even gonna pass given the attitude -_-
