Would you prep DP?

DP said something just before bed Saturday night that upset me. We'd had a few drinks, so it wasn't the time to talk about it. But it bothered me a lot, so my 3am wee wake up left me stewing it over for 90mins instead of going straight back to sleep.

Sunday morning his alarm went off 20 mins before he needed to leave. I was able to squeeze in a 5 min chat, but he didn't grasp the root of why I was upset.

I'm seeing him tonight. I've written my thoughts on notes to help give me clarity. Would you send the notes over before you see him, so he's got a chance to process the conversation we are going to have? It feels like it's fair to give him processing time like I had all of yesterday, as he probably thinks the issue is already dealt with.

Or does it seem too much like a drama queen action to send him them?

I would say ‘when we get back please can we talk about (general subject) as I’m still upset but I need to talk through why’

This

Gives him a bit of a warning so you’re not springing it on him, but less business-y and weird than sending him your notes

You sound like hard work.

What did he say.
