Quote: Hi - Hope the weekend was good. I'm curious
Quote: BF kind of irritated me by taking a work shift this evening
JUst wondering why this was a source of irritation...
Normally we spend weekends together and I don't always see him during the week. This past week was different, we did have a couple of other evenings together. But normally, his taking the shift would knock off a day of only 2 that we usually spend together. If he had taken a shift for Saturday morning, it would have been fine - but it was at night (until nearly midnight). He did pick me up afterwards, and we did spend Sunday together.
Sunday was fine - though I'm getting a bit frustrated on a couple of things. There was something I'd really wanted BF to do as a proposal - and I let him know it ahead of time (more than a hint, anyway). After he just handed me the box, I told him I still wanted to do this particular activity. It's something that needs to be reserved ahead of time. So we were talking about doing it this past weekend, but he didn't call them to reserve it. That ended up being best anyway, his sister and her BF needed help moving. I was glad to do that. BF said we could do the activity next weekend - but I just have this feeling that he won't reserve it far enough ahead of time. It just kind of pisses me off, that he can't take 2 minutes and call them to do this. I also have wanted flowers, but I haven't seen those either. I don't ask for a lot - honestly, but flowers a couple of times a year (especially when we just got engaged) would be nice.
Sorry to be venting. I won't bring up the activity anymore to him. I think that is best, if he remembers, that will be wonderful. Also, I went to ex-OW website yesterday to see when she was supposed to get married (in a couple of weeks). She still has her journal up with a bit of information about what they did. In fact, it almost looks like it was added onto - I don't remember as many details as what she wrote. Another source of frustration - he went for 11 days to Europe, but in 3 years, he wouldn't go on trips with me. He did meet me in CA for a few days in early 2000, and we stayed at hotels locally a number of times (including back in January). But I did take a bunch of trips myself that he never joined me on. He knows that it is important to me, but I don't know how motivated he'll be to go anywhere. There is one place he keeps talking about - so hopefully we can do that.
Anyway - this is a venting day. BF has done a lot of wonderful things for me, so I can't completely complain. He did get me the ring also, he didn't drag his feet on that. I have a wonderful time with him. But there are things I really get frustrated with (and I know that it would be with ANY R).
