First of all I'd like to make it perfectly clear that I've already made the choice to just let this go. What he's doing isn't malicious or a regular thing, and just because I'm upset doesn't mean it has to be a fight. I'm just still upset about it and looking for a little support or for someone to tell me if I'm being ridiculous.

I've been sick for the past several days. Sore throat, swollen lymph nodes, body ache, headache...just absolutely miserable. I don't get sick very often but when I do feel this terrible I really just want someone to take care of me a bit, y'know?

On Thursdays and Fridays I usually go over to my guy's place while his daughter is at school. Yesterday I didn't, though, because he'd asked me not to so he could catch up on sleep, and it was easy enough to acquiesce to that when I felt so terrible and it would be much easier to pass out for 18 hours straight at my own place. But when I told him I was just going home, I also told him I would want to see him today.

Last night I woke up around 7p from a nightmare and texted him. Once we talked about it for a minute or two, he told me he'd made plans with a friend for this morning. I was obviously upset at this. He did offer for me to come over after I got off work until he left, but I didn't work last night. He asked if it was okay with me, and I answered honestly and said it's not, really, but that I wasn't going to tell him not to.

I didn't want to cause a fight over it because he sees me almost every day and he hasn't seen this friend in months. I don't like to get in the way of him spending time with his friends or his daughter. Had it been any day that I wasn't sick I really wouldn't care. We can certainly survive two days without each other.

But he knows I'm sick. He knew I wanted to see him. Part of me wishes he would at least swing by my place to check in, but if I wasn't willing to drive to his at 7am it doesn't seem fair to expect him to come out of his way. But still, I'm hurt that he sort of blew me off and that he doesn't seem to get why I'm upset. Is it just me?
