W called me last night. She asked again about taking our son to Carols in the domain, but this time told me it was on Saturday night (a night that I have him). I said if it was Friday night, then it would be fine, but I already have plans with him for Saturday night. I think she was expecting me to give in. I didn't, and she sounded dissapointed.
When we realised that we both wanted to do things with him on the same night, there was a long pause. She then said "this is a tricky one". I didn't respond. After another long pause, she ended up saying, "thats ok, it's your weekend".
I felt good, as normally I would give in, but it is my weekend and I had already made plans. I can't let her think that she will get whatever she wants now. I don't think I am being difficult, as I said, if we had no plans, I wouldn't think twice about it.
