The Lies and Deception Killing Me

[abbey1989]

So H mentioned that he wants to go up to a convention in SF this coming Friday. He forwarded me the info....looks pretty interesting. I asked if I could join him....I would just cruise around SF, shop, sightsee and whatnot. A few days pass and I told him I'd check airline flights. I did yesterday and they were roughtly $220 RT pp....but today they are up to $436 pp. I said well why don't we drive so then I could go and it would cost less? All along he had no desire to do the 1000 mile roundtrip drive. So I decided that I wouldn't go to save $ on airline ticket and asked if he wanted me to book his ticket.

He said he thought I was taking care of everything yesterday. I told him the price of the tickets yesterday and he was his usual non-committal self and didn't give me an answer. So then I asked well...do you want me to book your ticket and he laid a guilt trip on me about how I was trying to turn this trip into something other than what he intended it to be..."a business trip".

So, I got ready for work. He kissed me goodbye but I was mad and hurt. I guess he couldn't be any more blunt about not wanting me to go. It really hurt my feelings. He knows how hard I have been working, and how much I've been wanting just a little getaway.

Later in the a.m. he called and said he'll drive up with my dad on Thursday (he coincidentally is going up north) and will then fly home Friday. He'll stay at my brother's house.

Whatever.

On the upside....IT'S THE FIRST DAY OF SUMMER! I'm going to turn off my phone this afternoon and go for a hike.
