screwing up big time and need help

[elvencat]

So, update on today's activities:

My car has a flat and we won't have the money to get it fixed until the first of June, so whenever I want to go somewhere right now, I have to ask somebody for a loaner. Today, I decided I wanted to go to the bookstore for some quality alone time to look at some of the self-help books on dependency and such. I ask H if I could use his car for a few hours. Here's how the convo went:

H: What do you need it for?
M: I want to run some errands.
H: Like what?
M: I have some things to do in town.
H: Anything important?
M: Not really.
H: Where do you need to go?
M: Just wanted to do some shopping. Maybe go to the bookstore.
H: Oh, well, do you mind if I go with you...?

LOL... apparently he hates it when I'm not immediately forthcoming with info. He even told me that tonight himself by saying he doesn't like it when I don't answer him directly because it makes him think I'm hiding something. Gee... Pot. Kettle. But I DIDN'T say it. No matter how much I wanted to. Go me. And I'm amazed he even told me that when before he wouldn't talk about any kind of emotion of his.

I just need to make sure I don't start doing the same thing back to him again because a convo like that in the reverse is me being controlling. Ugh habits are hard to break.
