I guess I could refuse, but then it would just piss my H off: he would say I'm just trying to hold things up. I don't know what to do. On the one hand, I feel like I am being petty. It's just a date. On the other hand, I think it's particularly cruel of him to have casually let the legal date his petition be my birthday. But he's also done a lot of worse things, this might just be par for the course. The only important person in his world right now is himself. I'm sure he didn't even notice.
It is in the shelter of each other that people live.--Irish proverb
