Befuddled
I am annoyed. (PMS may be a contributor to this. May be.) I am also befuddled.
X again.
It seemed to me that we had plans for today. Now I get a call that he has to go to his parents' house for dinner (Turkey, a mere 3 days after Thanksgiving?). What irks me is that he waited until now (about 5pm) while on the drive there to tell me. It would have been polite to let me know earlier.
Then he used the phrase "when you're single" it is tougher to get out of familial obligations. (To clarify, one sibling may not be joining the post-Turkey Day turkey dinner because her kids have school tomorrow or something).
OK. That was all I needed to know about the status of things. (see previous post about roles)
I am now confused. Usually when confused I have no qualms about being forward and seeking answers.....except in situations like this. I hesitate because I have no desire for said answer seeking to be turned into a 'we-need-to-talk' moment (the kind that all men run screaming from). For the record, I don't like having those kind of discussions any more than a man does. I find them awkward and feel that they almost never turn out well (at least for me).
Yet me being me I have an urge to purge these feelings. This blog is a handy outlet sometimes. If only it could talk back....or feel more interactive somehow......
