Am I blowing this out of the water?
Long story short my boyfriend and I are an hour apart from each other and both work full time jobs. We’re both off every weekend so that’s usually when we spend time with each other.
We haven’t seen each other in a while, so we made plans at the beginning of this week to meet tonight and go stay at a hotel somewhere to get out of our homes for a bit. (Trying to feel like we’re on vacation lol)
Anyways, I told him to go ahead and head my way around 6:25 and then told him again to leave around 7:00 because it takes him an hour and about 20 minutes to get here. He told me he was on the way, so I packed my bag & got ready. I texted him and said “where are you at?” Just to see about where he was and he hadn’t even left his hometown yet. He claimed he was on the way yet I heard other people talking in the background and I asked him where he was and he was STILL in his hometown. by this time it’s already 7:50ish and he still hadn’t left.
So of course, I get upset by this because we’ve had this planned for a whole week if not more and we haven’t seen each other in a while. I didn’t want to be out late & leaving to find a hotel at 10 o’clock at night. 🙄 I’m honestly kind of hurt by this that he KNEW we made these plans, lied to me about when he was leaving, and made time for his friends who he sees every single day.
Ultimately, I told him not to come. I told him I wasn’t getting out late (anytime he wants to see me he always waits until LAST minute to come) beings we haven’t seen each other, I figured he’d be here a little early.
He sees absolutely no issue with waiting around & coming late. It’s the simple fact that he knew we had plans yet waited until the time was convenient for him.
Am I overreacting to this? I’m honestly so hurt by this. Is he right? Am I just blowing this out of proportion? He says it’s not even “late” and that he’s “sorry” that he didn’t leave on time.
