It is a painful pace! That is why occasionally I boil over like last night! You are right about the birthday wishes I shouldn't think he'll bother. My birthday is on Sunday. Last year he got me the most amazing bike, it's called a Pashley Princess and its so cool.
It was really thoughtful as he knows I have a phobia about driving but as you need some form of transport where we live and I love cycling it would mean I'd have a little independence for me instead of having to walk everywhere.
I've just done a bit of a 180 for me. In our last meeting my h and I agreed that he would put in another £200 into the joint account to cover his phone bill for this month. I've just checked the account and he hasn't! This means that unless he puts the money in tomorrow we will not be able to pay our mortgage and will get fined.
Before I have just swallowed it, you might remember last month I had the same issue and just put my own money in to cover it. Well, this month I physically can't so I phoned my h (obviously he didn't pick up!) and left a message asking if he could just check the joint bank account as I am out and about and don't have internet access today and I just want to check that we will be ok for the mortgage this month. He now has a days grace to sort it out himself or else I suppose me, the complete mug for having hope for this useless guy, will have to. Where is the h that bought me my gorgeous bike?!
I'm a bit upset that after our positive meeting last time he didn't do the only thing I asked him to do. I went away and thought about the house issue which is what he wanted.
I just get so p*ssed off that everything falls on me all the time.
