Am I in the wrong? Or is boyfriend?

Hello,

My boyfriend is kind of upset with me but I don't think I'm in the wrong- please let me know if I am.

So, I work part time and see my boyfriend once a week- if I can. This week, on my day off, we arranged to meet up, go and do something and spend time with each other. However, I looked at my funds and told him that I am really stretched for money this week (major bills coming out) and that I ideally want to spend the day off really sorting out other family issues, issues with court etc. My bf was a bit disappointed and said to not worry that he will come over and help me, would pay etc. But I said no- not to worry. I'll just see you next week and that was that.

Then on my day off, my friend rang me and said if we could go for a quick coffee date. I said ok, as I haven't seen her for many months and-unlike the bf, a quick coffee date wouldn't take the entire day that It would have been if I went out with my bf. So anyway, I told my bf that I was meeting a friend quickly and he because quite annoyed, he said that I cancelled the plans and now I'm going out with friends even though I said X. He then went on to say that it's not the fact you are going out with your friends, but it's the principle. I then told him that I saw him for the past two weeks and that I hardly see this friend and wanted to take the quick opportunity- it's not we if I'm going out with her for the whole day.

I don't know. Am I in the wrong?

A lot had happened and I am learning to regain my trust in him. But I think I need to call it quits.

Bit of a drip free there OP.

You're not wrong for not wanting to see him. You are wrong for carrying on a relationship with him when you're so lacklustre about it, as he seems to be in a different page.

Once a week to see him is not much unless you've only just started dating or live in different cities. Seeing friends and having your own interests is really important though. How much do you really like him? If you're not that excited about meeting up maybe it's not the relationship for you?
