Should I be feeling annoyed about this?

Okay…so five days ago my boyfriend and his family took his dad to las vegas to celebrate his dad’s 60th birthday. Tomorrow is his father’s actual birthday…

Now my boyfriend swore up and down that as they’d already celebrated his father’s birthday they weren’t going to do anything on the actual day itself and it was okay to make plans for tomorrow evening for us to do something. it’s been about two weeks since we had a free night together and I was looking forward to it…

So I went ahead and planned a nice evening for us…I brought some movie tickets, made a dinner reservation and made sure all my work was done beforeheand so tomorrow night could be relaxed and calm…

My boyfriend just called me up about twenty minutes ago informing me his mother decided to have another party, told him he had to be there as his cousins were showing up and laid a guilt trip on him about going to said party…

Now…I like to think I am a fairly reasonable human being, but I’m feeling a bit annoyed by this. I’m trying really hard not to be…but I was looking forward to tomorrow evening an awful lot…am I over reacting to this?

Answer #1

Not over-reacting - BUT - he is also in a spot, family gatherings are important. He owes you and if he’s a stand-up guy he will make sure that he makes it up to you.

Stephanie makes a real good point, he should have invited you. Whether you wanted to go or not, the invite should have been given.

Answer #2

I, too, would be annoyed. Only thing I could tell you is go to the family party with him. That way, his family won’t flip out and you can see eachother. I’m sure his family knows that the two of you haven’t seen eachother and I can’t see why they would object to having you there. If he makes up some lame excuse as to why you can’t go, then I’d be a lil suspicious.

Answer #3

No - you aren’t overreacting. I mean suddenly they plan a party just like that, out of the blue. Seems quite odd if you ask me, maybe there is something he’s not telling you. I don’t see why he wouldn’t invite you if that’s the case…
